1953 Chevy truck. Has '54 grille and fenders. Truck has subframe and rear end from a 90 Silverado. Power Steering, Disc Brakes, Independent front Suspension. Rear section of frame has been cut and channeled to lower the truck even more than it is. Needs brake lines connected to master cylinder. E-brake cables are strapped to the frame. Body is in good shape. Has new cab corners and welded patch panels in the usual places. Paint is ok but not great. Its decent for a driver and can be color sanded and buffed to look better. All new glass , fuzzies, vent seals, and rubbers. One of the windshield glasses has a crack. All door and rear glass is factory tinted. Bed floor is a sheet of diamond plate aluminum. New chrome front and rear bumpers, New gas tank and sending unit. Gas tank is installed loosely because it needs a valve and fuel line. Seat frame is included, but I do not have the cushions. Floor and underbody is sprayed with truck bedliner. I dont know if the engine is good. I was tols the engine and trans are good when I bought them but have never tried to fire it up. I can see it has a new flywheel and timing gears. The engine sat outside my shop for over a month and may have caught some rain water. I have the engine harness and the under dash harness is hooked to the steering column and the rest is tucked under the dash for future wiring. Lights still need to be wired. Other new parts include: new door handles, marker lights, mirror assembly, headlight bezels, tailgate chains, headliner, door panels, kick panels. The wheels and tires are included, but they are very close to the body and need to be a little smaller in size. I have a low reserve set on this truck. I know its not done, but almost all of the hard stuff is done. Feel free to shoot me your best offer. I will glady change the auction and add a Buy Now if the price is right. Email me your contact info if you have any questions and I will call you asap. Good Luck bidding!

Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.
GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
