1971 Chevrolet Ck Pickup 2500 on 2040-cars
Pe Ell, Washington, United States
Auto restoration shop offers the owner’s personal 1971 Chevy K20 4x4 Pickup. We built this truck for the owner,
just test/tune miles since completion. This is a factory K20, the 4x4’s never got a big block from the factory,
we built a nice 454 for this truck, the big block conversion was done correctly. This is a rust free high desert
Oregon truck. This truck has some nice options, built to be driven and used. This truck could be proudly shown at
any car show, but was not built with than intention. We have quite a bit more money in this build than it’s
worth, shop owner has been selling off some of his vintage car collection for business expansion. This is his last
and favorite Chevy pickup. This truck is big, loud, fast and mean. Everywhere this truck has been driven gets
conversations, photo requests and thumbs up. Not many factory 4x4’s out there built to this level. I believe the
1971/2 Chevy K20 was the best pickup ever built.
MECHANICAL
We started with a 70’s Gen IV Big Block 454. Large oval port “781” casting heads, forged internals, Comp 282
hydraulic camshaft, Crane roller rockers, balanced rotating assembly. Edelbrock aluminum intake, 750 CFM Edelbrock
4 barrel carburetor electric choke, HEI (electronic) ignition. Headers are long tube for a Chevelle, best setup for
this conversion. Aluminum valve covers and air cleaner. 454 built for torque, with a bumpy cam, with incredible
low-mid range power you want in a 4x4. We never Dynoed this motor but guess it’s in the 425-450 Horse & 500+ ft
lb TQ range. We’ve seen so many times guys go too far on a BBC 4x4 build with rectangle port car heads and a huge
cam which gives only top end power you don’t want in a 4x4. We have the ignition timing set for premium pump
fuel. Dual 2 ½ in exhaust to dual 40 series Flowmaster mufflers. Power steering, large hub open knuckle disc brake
front axle, heavy duty Eaton rear axle, both original to the truck, 4.10 gears. Rebuilt TH-350 automatic
transmission with shift kit to rebuilt 205 gear driven transfer case. Part time T-Case with 2H 4H N 4L. Skyjacker
lift kit and shocks, brand new 35’s on new aluminum wheels.
We believe this to be one of the best 67-72 4x4 trucks out there, built tough to be used. This is not a 1000 point
trailer queen show car, it is a very nice excellent condition driver. Finding a solid restorable 4x4, restoring,
converting to big block would cost near double the asking price and take time to build, save money and time to buy
it done.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild
Tue, 12 Feb 2013This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
