Up for bids is my 1981 chevy K30 1 ton 4x4. It is a factory 1 ton 4x4 and was originally a single wheel rear end with a fleet side bed. The duelly rims were added as well as the flat bed. It has a hitch and goose neck ball and is set up for towing. The truck is equipped with the factory 454 V8 and manual 4spd trans. It has a Dana 60 front axle and a GM corp 14 bolt rear. The transfercase is a NP 205. The odometer shows 42000 plus which I assume is 14200 plus.The truck has a current Virginia state inspection. Mechanically the truck is in good condition and runs out fine and the 4 wheel drive works as it should.The numbers on the front axle indicate it has a 373 gear ratio and cruises down the interstate at 65-70 miles a hour fine. It does have some minor drips,leaks that come with being a 32 year old vehicle that has been used as a truck. It has a exaust leak that may need attention before the next inspection is due. It is a beast that will pull whatever you hook it to. The body is good for the age and is primered grey. The rockers and cab corners are getting rusty and will need work in the future depending on what you want the truck to be. The floors,cab supports, doors, and fenders are in good condition. The rear tires are about 50-60 percent and the front maybe 25 percent and will need to be replaced in the near future. Please keep in mind this is a work truck not a show truck. The truck is sold as is where is with no kind of warrenty or guarantee. Please don't bid if you don't intend to buy the truck ! Please ask questions and I will do my best to answer them quickly and honestly. A non refundable 250.00 deposit is due within 24 hrs of the end of the auction by paypal and the balance within 7 days in cash unless you work out other arrangements with me. I can help load the truck for shipping but prefer it to be picked up. All cost for shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer and it must be paid in full before shipping or pickup. I have a clear Virginia title for the truck. Thank you for looking

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
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.
