I am selling my 1954 Chevrolet 3100 Pick-up truck. It is the 5 window model. This truck is all original steel, no reproduction sheet metal. This was a frame off restoration that was completed about a year ago. The stock frame has been modified with a 1979 Jaquar rear end and a Mustang II front end. The frame has been painted with a satin black finish .All the brake lines and fuel lines are new The engine is a rebuilt Chevrolet 400 with a mild Cam and a Holley 4 bbl carb. The transmission is a rebuilt turbo 400 transmission with a Lokar shifter. The engine and transmission was rebuilt locally here by Bel Air Ranch in Buellton, California. The fuel tank was relocated underneath the bed and features a locking Harley Davidson cap. The bed is a new oak with stainless steel strips from Mar-K, the wood was finish with several coats of urathane clear. The wheels are new 15 inch Wheel Vintique Rallye wheels with baby moon caps. The truck was professionally painted by Bill Anderson of Hot Rod Alley in Lompoc, who was Sam Foose's painter. The color is PPG Copenhagen Blue base coat with Glasurit Clear coat. This was a rust free truck. The body is stock, no modifications. The bumpers, headlights, taillights, emblems and door handles all new new. The interior and dash are all stock except for the steering column which is from 1958 Bel Air and the steering wheel is a 1959 Impala wheel. The seat was re-upholstered in a brown faux leather with a distressed look. The door panels are new brown cardboard with new door handles. The head liner is new brown cardboard. The gauges are original but they have been rebuilt. It has a new Newport Engineering 2 speed electric wiper conversion. This truck has been rewired with a new EZ wiring harness, 12 volt. The radio is original and does not work. All the rubbers and weatherstripping are new. This is a great running and driving truck. This is a very understated but classic color which looks much better in person. We had listed this truck about a month ago but had a family medical emergency and we were not able to follow through with proper pictures and attention to e-mails, so I do apologize to those who emailed then. The reserve has been considerably lowered as we need to sell. Please e-mail me with any questions, if you'd like to talk I will give you my phone number. Buyer to arrange for pick up. Thanks!

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.

As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.
Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
