I acquired this truck from one of my customers (I own a small engine dealership). She had the truck parked in her barn and I saw if when picking up a ATV she needed repaired. I ultimately bought the truck and another piece of equipment from her. The history on the truck was that her grandfather bought the truck new in 1970 from Brunt-Ward Chevrolet in Louisville Ms. He drove the truck for two years until his death in 1972. At that time, the customer's father put the truck in his shed and used it very intermittently until his death in 2007. At that time, the daughter put the truck in her barn where it sat until I bought it. She indicted there was one attempt the crank it up about three years ago by her husband but he told he the carb was bad ad the radiator was shot When I bought the truck, I had a wrecker pick it up and tow it to my business. At this point I have had my mechanic do the following work to the truck: 1. Carb - my mechanic pulled the carb and took it apart and cleaned it (soaked in cleaner) and put it back together. We replaced the internal fuel filter in the carb with a new one. 2. We replaced the fuel pump and the gas tank due to the corrosion we found in the original tank. 3. We dropped the oil out of the unit and replaced the oil and oil filter. 4. We replaced the water pump as well as dropped and replaced the antifreeze. We were surprised at the condition of the radiator as it was in good shape. Later we found a receipt in the glove box for a radiator that was purchased in 2010 - apparently her husband replaced the radiator. 5. We originally had problems getting the heater to work but found a that a rodent had built a nest inside the heater mechanism that kept the heater from turning on. We have cleaned that up and now the heater is functional. 6. We cleaned (not detailed the truck). Other things worth mentioning: A. Tires were replaced 8/5/06. This includes the spare. They appear to be in good shape. B. The truck now cranks and drives. I have driven the truck back and forth from my business to my home a couple of times (about 10 miles each way). The truck engine runs well. C. The brakes on the truck work although they truck pulls to the left under heavy braking. I would expect that the new owner would need to do brake work. D. The glass on the truck is good with the exception of the front windshield which has a major crack. The passenger side mirror is loose inside its housing but is in one piece. E. The inside is in good shape with no tears in the seat or the door panels or dashpad. One of the seatbelts does have a cracked plastic cover housing. The steering wheel also has a couple of cracks in the plastic. F. As best I can tell all of the lights and signals work. G. There are several small dents located on the truck. I believe most will show up in the pictures. I would assume the new owner if they want to restore this truck will have it repainted and I don't think the dent repairs will be a big issue. H. I can find no significant rustthru on the exterior of the vehicle. There is some surface rust on the vehicle. The wheels and hubcaps are very rusty. I. The transmission is a standard shift - 3 speed on the column Not sure what else is needed to describe the vehicle. Hopefully the pictures will show the overall condition of the vehicle, If you have any questions, please let me know. My phone number is 601 656 5131 - ask for Kevin. I would prefer local pickup on the truck but will assist in loading it with a shipping company if the buyer prefers. Payment by cash or certified check. I would like a deposit of $500 (paypal OK) within 5 business days with the reminder at pickup. |

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
