For sale is my custom built 1993 Silverado with an LT1 V8 from a 1996 Corvette. As the pictures will show, this is a totally custom truck with entirely too much to list on the ad, so I will touch on the highlights. For seriously interested parties, you will need to call me to get all the specifics. I have owned the truck for the past 10 years, and bought it as you see it today. I have only driven it 4,400 miles in that time, and the miles are original. It is a Louisiana truck, and was professionally built by the original owner. There is absolutely NO rust, and is a professionally built truck, built like a street rod. Adult owned and driven. Here are the highlights: Engine: Rebuilt 1996 Corvette LT1 with 350 Horspower Engle Cam Hooker headers Holley fuel injection Be Cool aluminum radiator with dual electric fans Totally chromed and detailed everywhere you look Dual Flowmaster 40 series Auburn Posi-Trac rear end with 4.11 gears Cal-Tracks traction bars Rebuilt 700R4 tranny with overdrive Body and Paint All stake bed holders, door handles, antenna masts, etc have been shaved. a steel roll pan has been welded in and smoothed. Professional paint and body work performed by GKT Motorsports and Restoration in Louisiana. Custom flame graphics done by KAL customs, air brushed and outlined with camel hair brush. Truly one of, I have never seen anything else like it. Truck was completely disassembled to paint. Entire frame, underside of cab, exhaust, rear brake drums, front brake calipers, coated with POR-15 (Paint over Rust), better than powder coat and will not rust. the underside of the truck is damn near as clean as the top. Wheel wells are painted yellow to match the exterior. All hood hinges, hood latch's, door strikers, and bed stabilizers have been chromed. All the glass was replaced with brand new GM glass when restored. The color matching bed cover is also one-of, and custom built out of aluminum specifically for this truck. The inside of the bed is flawless with no bondo or dents (the owner replaced the bed with a used, rust-free bed with no imperfections, took him 2 months to find). The fuel tank was removed when the truck was lowered (a-arms, springs, leafs, etc.) There is now an aluminum 15 gallon fuel cell mounted in the bed. Boyd Coddington aluminum wheels and tires, 20" in the rear, and 17" in the front. Wrapped in Nitto 555R tires. Interior is covered entirely in tweed, with chrome dash accents and power leather seating. NOTE* The Air Conditioning has never been charged nor used since it was rebuilt. I never had a need for it, but the compressor and all components are there. The fuel gauge is currently not working. **I have many more photos showcasing more detail of the truck inside and out, available upon request. Please call Don with more questions, please, respect my time, serious buyers only please.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
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.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
