tons of photos below...but PLEASE take time to read the following...
the truck is a strong running, reliable, complete, turn-key driver...ready to cruise, burn-out, show, & bar hop.
it has a pumped up big block 70's chevy 454 motor that runs great and starts without problem.
new high crank battery, 2 gauge wiring, & Jegs race starter handle the hottest starts and an aluminum radiator w/custom fan & shroud combo help cool it.
it's my dependable daily driver...take it from san jose to sacramento and back without problem...choke works great for cold starts.
it has headers, a big cam, 454 high flow intake...great sound & lopey idle w/small glass pack turn down exhaust.
it has a 3-speed turbo 400 automatic transmission from a 70's truck as well...it was just flushed & sealed up 1k miles ago.
has super tall lokar floor shifter w/boot & polished knob...it's paired with a chrome spoon gas pedal.
has a low mile camaro 12-bolt rearend w/411 gearing and POSI-traction also flushed & sealed 1k miles ago
...the combo is scary. it's a real balls to the wall hot rod...easy to light up.
engine bay is matte black and nothing special...
it's shaved & nosed...all trim, handles, mirrors, fuel filler, etc...
no door poppers...reach in thru the vent windows and open...
it's actual flat red paint, in great shape with gloss white accents on cab, grill, and flipped front bumper. (gives a lower/frown look)
body is super straight and smooth. frame is true...the matte finish, natural body lines, and smoothness from the shave are killer.
the running light lenses have been painted white as well....the headlights are yellow glass and it has bluedot tear drop tailights.
truck has no turn signals or mirrors.
custom gloss red & white 1-shot by Lefty out of Sacramento on hood and back fenders.
paint matched steel visor and louvered roll pan finish off the look.
bed walls are also paint matched and the custom lifted bed itself was just refinished (actual tongue & groove flooring) to resemble an old saloon bar top.
the running boards are a bit beat up from normal life as a truck, as are the bed walls and tailgate, but nothing crazy.
it has a show look, but still a driver and usable truck...it's damn sure not a garage queen. and NO it is NOT a rat rod!!!
some small rush spots in the normal areas (wheel wells/door sills) but for me, not worth messing with on this style truck.
both doors and hood have rubber stops & spacers in place with fresh cowl seal and door jams.
no wipers or motor...has paint matched bolt deletes for smooth clean look.
interior was fully gone thru and completed about 2k miles ago.
gloss black cab, running boards, and door jams were fully resprayed.
all new green side glass, rubbers, guides, vent seals, and even fuzzies.
the original clear glass gangster window has real metal venetian blinds mounted in the OG creme color.
brand new green glass windshield w/shade & new gasket.
authentic serape mexican blanket custom upholstery. it's a truly wrapped bench seat w/custom made matching door cards.
brand new molded black loop carpet kit was installed as well.
aftermarket gauge cluster was painted wrinkle black as was the window trim and door cards.
all gauges works (oil/water/volts/fuel AND speedo) and are backlit...along with working interior dome light, headlights, rear running lights, and brake lights.
no horn and no stereo...no heater or A/C
new interior visors & chrome hardware, handles, gauge bezel, steering wheel, rocket knobs, traffic viewer, rearview mirror, glove box, hardware, etc.
original key cylinder for ignition AND glove box match..
the roulette table felt headliner is a big hit, as is the tall boy PBR can horn filler...
the suspension is the last big portion of the truck and where most of the money was spent.
first off is has a brand new set of 15" chrome steelies w/chrome baby moons...
they were just wrapped with fresh coker classic bias ply L78's, their largest tire w/a true 4" whitewall...they really pop.
they are ~29.5" tires so it also helps with freeway speeds, helping mellow out the 411 gearing a bit.
full front & back drum brake job, with upgraded camaro rear drums w/powdercoated backing plates & new wheel cylinders all around.
new brake lines as well with a flush 1k miles ago.
up front there is an oldschool mor-drop 6" stretched front axle paired with mono leaf springs to get it sitting right.
all new tie rod ends, bushings, kingpins, etc...the original steering box was also rebuilt.
the rear frame was c-notched (why the bed was lifted) and was slammed down with mono leafs in back too...
the truck is dead nuts level, w/custom rear shackles to nail it even...this was an important look for me; no rake, no sag.
the shocks were repositioned to get the most out of their travel...it rides exceptionally smooth & very straight considering its oldschool, straight axle nature.
the steering geometry was adjusted best it can be with great improvement from the initial modification.
the turning radius is less than desirable as a result to the slammed stance paired with a much taller/wider tires but it is what it is...drive her everywhere without issue.

It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
