1955 Chevy 3100 SHORT BED BIG WINDOW DELUXE CAB!!
VERY RARE STAINLESS STEEL TRIM ON OUTSIDE OF CAB! You found it, the barn find you have been looking for! This is a ONE owner truck since it was bought new in Wildomar, CA. The original owner died in 1970 while in the beginning process of a restoration and installing a V8, he had removed the original engine and trans and was in the process of looking for a motor when he passed away, the truck has less than 67k original miles. His son transferred the truck into his name in June of 1970 (look at the pics of the title) and had it stored in a sealed container on the family property in Wildomar. Sometime in the 90's when they sold the property the truck was delivered to his home in Burbank, CA where it sat in his garage until 3/24/14 when I pulled it out. It is completely original and rust free (except for front bottom of cab both sides as shown in pics) with a clean solid frame and floors. The dash is in excellent condition and uncut. The rear cab corners were professionally changed out as seen in the pics before the owner died, they did an amazing job. All the rain gutters are clean and rust free as are the window seals. The truck seems to have one re-paint in that strange greenish gold color you see now, the original color from what I can tell seems to be red. All the glass is excellent. This truck has the VERY RARE deluxe cab with the stainless steel trim on the outside of the cab. The trim is all there and in excellent condition as can be seen in the pics. You can not find these trucks with the trim option much less with all the trim in this amazing condition. The original bench seat needs to be rebuilt but is all there and complete as seen in the pics. The original instrument cluster showing the original mileage is in perfect working order and fantastic condition. The truck also has all the original hood latch components and original radiator with support bar. Please feel free to call me anytime with questions. Thanks for looking and good luck!

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
Chevrolet Malibu gets across-the-board price cuts, hopes to dig out of slump
Mon, 11 Feb 2013To say that things aren't going well for the newly redesigned 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is a pretty sizable understatement. Reports have been swirling about the Malibu getting an emergency design refresh, less than a year after its introduction, as well as having its production at the Fairfax Assembly Plant halted twice already this year for excessive inventory. Now, Motor Trend is reporting that the midsize sedan will be receiving price drops across the board ranging from $300 on a number of models up to $770 on the 1LT trim; offsetting some of MSRP drop, though, the destination charge has increased from $760 to $810.
Without destination, the entry-level Malibu LS now starts at $21,995, which is still about $300 more than a Honda Accord and about $300 less than the segment's top-selling Toyota Camry. This new pricing also drops the price of the Eco, 2LT and 3LT trims by $300. The LTZ trim has dropped by $415, meaning that the Malibu's top dog now starts at just under $30,000, excluding destination.
Here are the new starting prices for all eight of the Malibu trim levels compared to the previous prices for the 2013 model year (including destination):
Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
