This happens only rarely. A garaged, unique incredible show truck, and a rational seller who isn't greedy.
This is basically a late model truck masquerading as a '67 C-30 1-ton Dually. It was painstakingly professionally restored and rebuilt at a documented cost of $30,805.00. Have a look through some of the restoration details uploaded. The drivetrain, suspension, fabrication, mechanical, and electrical details attended to are mind- boggling. The interior has also been renewed. Seats, headliner, glass, window gaskets, you name it. I can send the complete restoration album upon request. Due to size limits it will not fit here.
I bought this truck out of sheer respect for the quality of the restoration work performed on it. It draws a crowd everywhere. But I have five vehicles and simply don't have the time to drive it.
This dually runs like a champ, and growls with a rock solid 454 and auto trans with OD. It's set up to tow, if that's your pleasure. Don't be deceived, it is automatic although in photos it looks like a manual.
I've been through every inch of this truck and there is not a speck of rust anywhere. It spent its life in Arizona and is now in CA. insured as collectible. The odo says 4926 and upon close inspection you'd be hard pressed to find evidence of previous miles... I'm serious.. it's just that nice (and I'm picky).
I loathe re-paints, most of them ruin vehicles. Thankfully, the paint is mostly original. I can't find overspray or paint bleed anywhere. The paint is passable, but in my opinion does not do justice to the monumental restoration effort done on this truck. My price is reduced to reflect what some would say is a shortcoming. So be happy you don't have to 'undo' a bad paint job, and can customize to your liking, or leave it as- is.
The wooden flatbed was custom fabricated, looks great, and has stake pockets to accept side rails easily, if you choose. Another element open for your customization.
Please bid to own because as I say, I'm not greedy so don't be surprised. You will not be disappointed. An inspection by yourself or an agent is encouraged before bidding. There are of course some minor niggles, but only a few, and you want to spend a Sunday or two working on it, right :-) I'm glad to assist with shipping/ storage/ logistics. Cheers!

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
