Want to park a killer piece of Americana in your garage for roughly HALF the price of a ground-up build? Check out this slick Action Line Chevy!
BODYWORK/TRIM
Benefitting from a ground-up restoration that was completed in 2015, this polished pick-up was sent to Doug Krashner Auto Body of Clover, South Carolina where it was stripped, fitted with fresh metal, decked in PPG Deep Atlantic Blue base and sealed in pearl clear. Despite its massaged drivetrain, the truck's trim and ornamentation remain largely as the General specified. At the front its body, a streamlined grille hangs a brilliant blue bowtie between a polished bumper, amber parking lamps and modern halogen headlights. At the sides of that grille, a monochromatic profile centers chrome door handles and polished bowtie mirrors between bold badging and bright marker lamps. At the top of that profile, chip-free glass reflects polished wipers, satin cowl screens and a factory antenna. Behind that greenhouse, fresh stainless skid strips secure requisite wood planks around a relocated fuel filler. And at the back of that bed, a smooth tailgate centers hidden latches above bright taillights and a second polished bumper.
ENGINE
Pop the hood and you'll find 383 cubic inches of spry Chevy small block that was professionally assembled by A&K Rebuilders of Clover, South Carolina. Revs are created when a Billet Specialties air cleaner floats wind in to an Edelbrock RPM Air Gap intake, by way of a 750cfm Quick Fuel carburetor. At the perimeter of that plane, Billet Specialties valve covers hang polished breathers over 195cc Air Flow Research heads, which feed long Hedman Husler Hedders. Behind those breathers, an MSD Pro-Billet distributor sequences spark between an MSD Blaster 2 coil, MSD 6AL-2 ignition and loomed MSD Super Conductor plug wires. Those wires spark a 3.75-inch stroke, which begins at an Eagle forged crank, progresses to Eagle H-beam rods and ends with quality Mahle pistons. Between those pistons, a custom Comp solid roller cam bumps solid roller lifters and fluid roller rockers. At the front of those arms, Billet Specialties Tru Trac components spin polished pulleys in front of a polished AC compressor, an Edelbrock water pump and a polished Powermaster alternator. And in front of those ancillaries, a Be Cool radiator plays well with a satin support and dual SPAL puller fans. Despite being a thoroughly massaged piece, the 4-bolt mill looks right at home in the truck's body-matched engine compartment. And details like an Aeromotive regulator, a liquid-filled Marshall pressure gauge and an Optima gel cell battery mix first-rate looks with first-rate functionality.
DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION
Behind that trusty small block, a 2,500 RPM stall kicks a custom-built 700R4 4-speed, which spins an aluminum Carolina Driveline driveshaft. That 3.5-inch tube twists power to an aluminum-capped Drivetrain Specialties Dana 60, which centers an Eaton Truetrac differential on 3.73 gears, 35-spline axles, ARP studs and big Ford hubs. Everything rolls on a factory-style suspension, which was fully rebuilt to include drop spindles, lowering springs and QA-1 adjustable shocks. Modern power steering makes parking easy and turns a cinch. Stops are provided by an SSBC booster, which jolts a Wilwood proportioning valve, two 4-piston SSBC calipers and two 3-piston SSBC calipers to clamp 14-inch drilled and slotted rotors. The aforementioned headers feed fresh, 2.5-inch pipes, which employ bold Flowmaster mufflers and bright stainless tips. And power meets the pavement through hot Billet Specialties Vintecs, which twist 255/50R17 Nitto NT450 Extreme Performance radials in front of 275/50R17 Nitto NT450 Extreme Performance radials.
INTERIOR
When you pop this stepside's doors you'll find a sweet Black Houndstooth cockpit that's been upgraded in all the right places. Top dead center, a color-keyed dash hangs Classic Auto Air conditioning and Custom Autosound audio beside vintage-look Classic Instruments telemetry. In front of that dash, a broad bench seat rides lowered tracks. In front of the driver, a stylish Billet Specialties steering wheel laps a tilting Flaming River column. And first-class detailing abounds, from the truck's Dashtop Highliner headliner to its modified door panels and 1-piece power windows.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing.

No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.

When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.

Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.

To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.

With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
