1972 Chevy Short bed Cheyenne, Project.

 This truck was sold new at John Geer Chevrolet in Sacramento, CA. It has had three owners and never lived more than 50 miles from the dealership.

 Built in the Freemont Plant. I have the original Build sheet for this truck, Original owners manual, copy of old title and back reg. It has both CA Blue plates. Clear title in hand, current registration.

 This is a Cheyenne equipped Shortbed truck from the factory. Was all white with Olive interior. Upper and lower belt moldings, Air conditioning, Power Steering and power brakes. 3.73 rear end. See photos of Build Sheet.

 I believe the engine has been replaced. And it has a 700r4 Overdrive Trans in it. It runs good, has good oil pressure and shifts nicely. It is fun to drive, very tight and can go anywhere today. It does mark its spot. The exhaust is funky side piped with Kerker Mufflers, but I'll admit it does sounds great. Lights and electrical all are in working order. It really does drive nice.

 Body wise it is better than it looks in photos. very straight, good body lines and ZERO rust, EVER. It is solid!

 Yes it needs cosmetic restoration, but has potential to be one of the best if in the right hands. 

 I have the original steering wheel, AC Compressor and bracket, And original Bench seat. Also original emblems, original radio, original spare tire carrier. I put the 72 GMC tailgate on it. It is just a coincidence that it was from an all white truck. It was better than the one on it and new trim will cover it anyway.

 The truck has $3000 in new parts.

New American Racing Torque Thrust 17" Wheels
New BFG tires
New battery
New Alt
New front brakes
New CPP drop spindles
New CPP rear lowering blocks
New Brake Master and power Booster
New tail light lenses

New parts included but not installed-
New OEM grill (not aftermarket cheap one) $375
Newly plated correct original front bumper, show quality
New Marker Lights
New tail light trim

  I have over $10k into the truck but recently bought a "bucket list car" I have always wanted, a vintage Porsche.

 I can hold the truck for 30 days while transportation arrangements are made. Yes you can drive it home, anywhere. Please ask questions before bidding. Let me know if you want specific pictures of something.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Chevrolet 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.
