1971 Chevrolet C20 Longhorn/custom Camper on 2040-cars
Chico, California, United States
I am selling my 1971 Chevrolet C20 Longhorn Custom Camper. This is a rare model, came from the factory with 3/4 ton suspension, front sway bar, front disk brakes, a 9' wood bed, air conditioning (removed by previous owner), and a luxury interior. I have spent the last five years restoring this truck and it is nearly complete. There is almost $20,000 invested. I recently had this truck dyno'd at 315hp and 311 ft/lb torque. This truck is fast, fun, and gets compliments every time I drive it. With a fuel injected 350 and overdrive transmission it drives great at freeway speeds.
Exterior: New mirrors, added air dam from 92 chevy, painted in 2010, new rear step bumper, replaced fuel doors for saddle tanks, replaced front grille, added tool box, refinished wood bed, added 17" Cragar wheels, Nitto Tires NT 420S 275/60R-17 (purchased in November), new rear window, new side marker lights. Interior: Replaced radio with reproduction (with aux input), installed new front speaker and 6x9 speakers behind seat, push button ignition, removed interior gas tank, reupholstered front bench three months ago, replaced dash pad, replaced rear view, replaced dome light, installed wood steering wheel, installed sound matting, reproduction 3 point seatbelts. Suspension: 2 1/2" drop spindles in front, and new 3/4 ton leaf springs with 5" drop in the rear, Bilstein shocks in the front, new ball joints, new upper and lower control arm bushings. Drivetrain: 350 SBC bored .03 over, 1992 roller block with 4 bolt main, forged pistons, high volume oil pump, Comp Cams performance roller camshaft, hydraulic lifters, corvette heads, ported and polished, high rise intake manifold, FAST ez-efi fuel injection, cold air intake, 100 amp alternator, MSD distributor and ignition box, new radiator, new water pump, electric cooling fan, full ceramic and wrapped headers, x-pipe, dual 3" flowmasters, 700R4 transmission rated to 500hp, 4.10 rear end, replaced stock fuel tanks with fuel cell (between frame rails in rear). Extras: Comes with original AM radio (working), Original rims in good condition, cover by California Car Cover, and snow chains. Whats left to restore : The speedometer is 33% fast, the speedo gears need to be changed. Which also means that the odometer is 33% fast. The paint looks good, but is not show quality. There are a few runs, still has the orange peel, and has a few chips. If you have any question please ask. |

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above.

Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday
Tue, 11 Dec 2012There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
