" The South Dakota Rat "

The truck began life in the great state of South Dakota. To this day, she still has its last known tag from 1967 across the tailgate. The truck may look like it just was pulled out of the barn or the field but that’s where it stops. This may be one of the most sold 42’ models I have seen in a long time. As you can see from the pictures, the doors and cab corners are all solid, which is very rare.

The truck has just undergone a complete make over. The entire chassis has been replaced with a much stronger and safer unit donated by an early S-10. The engine bay now has a fresh little 350 V-8 with all the new goodies. The transmission is no longer a non-synchronized 3 speed but a much more suitable Turbo 350 automatic. All the wiring has been completely replaced with a Painless wiring system. As far as other comforts, the truck now has power disc brakes and power steering. The exhaust is dual of course and has Flowmaster style mufflers.

As far as the exterior, nothing has been changed except for the new Coker tires with of course cheater slicks out back. The wheels where also upgraded at the same time with a new set of Rockets.

With all that being said, the truck drives and stops like a new one but still looks like a true Rat…

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
