Classic Industries has launched its GM Truck Digital Parts and Accessories Catalog, a powerful interactive resource designed to help enthusiasts locate restoration parts, accessories, and upgrades for Chevrolet and GMC trucks.

This comprehensive online Chevy and GMC truck parts catalog gives restorers and truck builders access to thousands of high-quality components covering multiple generations of GM trucks.

You know the drill. A veteran comes home to California from a United States of America Army deployment in Afghanistan and sees an online advertisement from a vintage auto broker in Florida for a 1966 Chevy II Nova. The body, lavished in PPG brilliant white paint, looks impeccable. The ad's headline reads "Running and Driving." On the FaceTime phone/video call with the broker, the engine sounded sweet...

It's often said that the greatest innovations happen despite significant adversity, and this is certainly true of one of General Motors' crowning achievements, the Corvette Z06. This three-letter Regular Production Option (RPO) code is still immediately recognizable to car enthusiasts worldwide, even today, more than 60 years after it was created. The Z06 was offered as an obscure checkbox on the order form for a specially-optioned 1963 Corvette, and it carried a steep price tag, so only 199 of these legendary cars were ever produced.

This 1950 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is far more than a restored classic; it’s a deeply personal family build that blends craftsmanship, performance, and memories. The truck was originally built by a marine engineer, which shows in the level of detail, fabrication quality, and thoughtful engineering throughout.

Back in ’69, the muscle car wars were at full boil. GM, Ford, and Chrysler were throwing haymakers at each other with tire-smoking, big-block bruisers built to dominate both Woodward Avenue and the local dragstrip. Chevrolet answered the call through its Central Office Production Order (COPO) system, slipping the all-aluminum ZL-1 big-block into a limited run of Camaros — and just two factory-built Corvettes. Those ZL-1 Corvettes became instant legends, symbols of factory-backed rebellion and no-compromise performance.

Fast forward to today, and that same outlaw spirit lives on.

There are “tuned Corvettes,” and then there are statement pieces - the kind of builds that make even seasoned track-day rats do the slow head turn like they just heard a big-cam idle in a quiet parking garage. Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE) just dropped the latter: a Stage III Yenko/SC twin-turbo Corvette E-Ray that’s reportedly good for up to 1,564 horsepower on E85. Yeah… that number.

"No electricity, no hybrid. You're not eating wheat grass and kale chips in this thing," said Jay Leno. "This is a man's truck!" On a new episode of Jay Leno's Garage, Leno pays homage to one of the most famous heavy-duty classic trucks of its era, a 1991 Dodge W250. Many would argue that the best part of this truck is its engine, the famous 5.9L Cummins turbodiesel, which some journalists have referred to as "the engine that saved Dodge trucks." This particular truck was restored and upgraded by Tim Stevenson of the YouTube channel Decent Garage.

What if Carroll Hall Shelby continued his productive and astonishing collaboration with the Ford Motor Company well into the 1980s and '90s, and Lee Iacocca asked Old Shel' to envision, design, and build a Fox-bodied Shelby Mustang? The Foxy Shelby would need to have the quintessential Shelby design and performance that was the stunning success of the 1965-1970 Shelby Mustang GT350 and GT500 variants that tore up the racing tarmac and dealer showrooms of the latter 1960s and helped to vanish the contents of many a gear heads' savings accounts from the past to the ever present. Hmmm...

World famous custom car designer and builder Chip Foose postulates this interesting what if in a YouTube video, sponsored by Hagerty Classic Car Insurance. Stay tuned, motor mavens of the midway and gear heads of all generations! The 5.0 Shelby is on its way. We wish...

Growing up, Tony King and his older brother were always hanging out with their pop in the garage. Their dad would tinker with old cars and teach his sons to become gear heads themselves, while building cars and dune buggies in the latter 1950s and into the '60s.

Fast learners, by the time Tony and his bro were just nine or 10, they could already drive stick shift dune buggies! How many little boys and girls know how to drive manual shift cars these days? Right - not many!

Every Chevy II Nova owner starts with a vision.

For some, it’s a factory-correct restoration - the kind of build where every emblem, molding, and interior texture feels like it rolled out of the showroom in the right year. For others, it’s a pro-touring restomod - classic body lines, modern stance, upgraded braking and handling, and a drivetrain that feels alive at any speed. And for many, the goal is the most honest one of all: a weekend cruiser that looks great, runs reliably, and turns heads without turning into a never-ending project.
