1952 Chevrolet Truck 3100 Rat Rod Classic Truck Antique on 2040-cars
Gadsden, Alabama, United States
|
This 1952 1/2 ton truck had been updated with a 235 straight six from a 1954 1/2 ton truck prior to me buying it a year ago in North Carolina. I had the engine totally rebuilt, cylinders bored, the works, at a machine shop in August of 13. It left there and went to a shop where they installed new clutch, inner and outer cab corners on both sides, new cowl bottoms, welded in new floor board, changed wipers to electric. Truck has been converted to 12v, classic radio with dash mounted speaker, new shocks all way around. Bed has stainless steel strips and hardware, frame is coated in POR-15. New interior trim, cowhide on inside of door! I envisioned as a rat rod, but with a little work, could be a show truck. Drive it anywhere, fun to drive, people like to see it. I have the tailgate, just like the way it looks off, have the original oil bath air cleaner. Also have new splash guard for under the grill, new windshield gasket set and new complete wiring harness. All of this I had planned to put on the truck, but haven't found the time. If you buy the truck; it's yours. The speedometer works sometimes, sometimes not, but everything else works. There is two small holes on side of truck by the running board that I made accidentally putting in bed wood. Can be welded up. I have receipts showing investment totaling a little over $14k. Ask me anything if you have a question. Truck is in Alabama.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
