I have a very nice, above average 1968 Chevy pick-up listed for auction. This truck has had literally thousands of dollars and countless man hours spent on the resto-mod restoration of this truck. I call it restomod, because it is not 100% original. It has new black paint with every piece of new chrome on it, new emblems, wipers, new bed floor, wheel tubs, cowl induction hood, custom seat cover, door panels, visors, glovebox, gauges, carpet, window cranks, door handles, dash pad, lighter, alternator, brake lines, wheel cylinders, shoes, window felts, both inner and outer, glass run, weatherstrip, windshield, inspection.......the list goes on and on.... All the lights work, heat and defrost work also. The truck has a .030 over 350, flat top pistons, "double hump" 300 h.p. heads, aluminum intake, holley carb, hei distributor, headers, flowmasters that have about 12,000 miles on them. It does not smoke or rattle at all and runs great with no problems. I drive the truck regularly, so the mileage will change. It has an aluminum case, 3-speed manual floor shift transmission that shifts smooth and quiet with no problems. The truck is geared low, I would guess at least 3:73 or maybe lower. It does not have a positive traction rear end, if you gas it hard it will break loose spinning with 1 tire only. The truck is smooth on the road, drives good, runs good and looks good. I would not be afraid to start anywhere on this truck. I have a set of old school round bed rails, vent visors, tail-gate guard, unity spot light and cowl vent that is already cut and painted that will go with the truck also. I don't think you can find a nicer, more dependable truck for the reserve that is on this one. I will be glad to answer any questions that you may have. My feedback score reflects that I operate with honesty and integrity and I want to keep it that way. I have owned this truck for awhile and driven it regularly. I know it is in good condition and ready to go with no known problems at all. I reserve the right to end the auction early. The truck is for sale locally. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
On Nov-20-13 at 11:25:49 PST, seller added the following information: The truck has 15X10 corvette style rally wheels all the way around with 275x60x15 T/A Radials. It has the old style "police" center caps with wide wheel bands. The tires have 50 to 60% tread left on them. |

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
