1952 Chevy Hot Rod Custom Built Pickup on 2040-cars
Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States
|
Completely built from the ground up on a 1994 Chevrolet S-10 frame with Advanced Design Engineering of California's subframe kit by Tom's Rod's and Customs. Body and bed were media blasted, primed and painted with PPG Silk Blue and a metal flake added to the clear coat on the cab for that "60's look". Tom had a sign painter create a logo for the doors....I like it, but if the new owner does not, a quart of the PPG paint comes with the truck. All receipts and manuals, wiring diagrams, etc. are included.
New GM Goodwrench crate 350 CID/290 HP engine with quadrajet carb, GM TH350 automatic transmission from Summit Racing, Lokar shift linkage on the floor. Mallory HEI ignition, Holley electric fuel pump, new power front disc brakes and wheel bearings, rebuilt front end on Belltech drop spindles, Monroe Reflex rear shocks, rear drum brakes. American Autowire wiring harness, new 30" steering column with tilt, Lobeck steering components, pedals and throttle linkage, Haneline gauge package, custom dual exhaust. Power-assisted steering. New chrome Vintique 15"x7" rear wheels, 15"x6" front wheels shod with Coker American Classic radials (235 and 215). New Vintage Air Conditioning/Defrost/Heat made expressly for this series of Chevy trucks, and it blows cold air. Temp gauge never gets over 190*. Cab roof and doors have been soundproofed and insulated. New headliner. New outside rearview mirrors. New Stainless and Pine bed. Wood treated with Minwax Spar UV protected satin polyurethane. All the glass and rubber are new. Truck was built to be super dependable and be a good driver and it is. A few minor scratches here and there, and the hood support springs vibrate a bit. Removed the little stereo Tom had in the glovebox but had to remove it to make way for the Vintage Air ductwork...but there is some good space behind the glovebox door for items, just not deep enough for a radio. Speakers are still in the doors. There are several AM/FM stereos that fit in the dash without cutting...just remove the plate behind the plugs. Classic Parts of America sells one for $180.00 and there are others to choose from. |

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
