Up for auction is a 1942 Vintage Chevrolet Pick-up truck. 

Very UNIQUE/RARE find! In 1942 trucks for the consumer were only built in Jan. and Feb. After that time all trucks were built for WWII.

I bought this truck last fall and intended on putting on an S-10 chassis. After seeing how UNIQUE/RARE it was I decided to find a different truck to build. This truck was last driven in 1969 and has been stored inside since then.

The engine was loose so I performed a complete tune-up, replace fuel pump and cleaned carb (fired up and ran very well.) Currently running off auxilary fuel tank (tank should be flushed). Rebuilt master cylinder and all 4 wheel cylinders. Replaced rear brake shoes (fronts were at 70%). Also replaced all steel lines, as well as, hydraulic brake hoses. Installed new muffler.

This truck runs and drives GREAT! The speedometer even works! It still has original wiring. I would recommend installing a new wiring harness. The original seat frame is there but will need to be recovered. The rear glass is gone but the rest is in good shape. The truck does not have a tailgate.

As you can see in the PHOTOS and the VIDEO (be sure to hit arrow to PLAY), the body is in EXCELLENT CONDITION! 

I have an up to date Numbers matching title in hand. And I DID look up the VIN to verify it's a 1942. VIN shows it is a Light duty 3/4 ton with 6-bolt wheels.

$500 non-refundable deposit required at auction end with remainder due within 7 days! NO EXCEPTIONS or truck will be re-listed.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to call Jim at 319-239-5238. All bidders with less than feedback of 10 should contact seller before bidding.

Thanks for looking and HAPPY BIDDING!

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
