You are bidding on a very nice 1950 3100 1/2 ton Chevrolet Pickup. We have owned a few of these and this is by FAR the best running, driving, riding, and functioning truck of this era we have seen or driven. The truck was restored approximately 6 years ago and has been driven very little since. It has the straight 6 cylinder engine with 4 speed (3 plus granny low) transmission with shift in the floor and starter pedal in the floor. I do not know if the motor and trans are original to the truck, but they both function very well. It has been converted to 12 volt, bolt pattern has been converted from 6 lug to 5 lug, all gauges (even the gas gauge) work, and wipers work. The only fault this truck has mechanically is the first few times you use the brakes a back one locks up from not being driven. It straightens up and stops fine after a few stops. All window felt, window rubber, fender welt etc. are new and in great shape. All glass is very nice. Tires are new with Chevrolet rally wheels and Chevrolet hubcaps. The body is in very good condition with a very nice paint job. I would give it a solid 7.5-8 out of 10. The vent in the cab even works very well and has new weather stripping(see pic). The only items obviously not replaced or reconditioned are the inside and outside door handles and widow cranks. They are pitted some and show age, but are much better than any of the reproduction stuff out there. Interior is very nice only needing the cardboard headliner. Seat, floor mat, door panels, etc..all in very good condition. Please look at the pictures closely and ask any questions you might have previous to bidding. I have done my best to honestly represent the vehicle through description and photos. If you want a truck you don't have to spend a dime on to cruise and show, this is the truck for you. Truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction due to local sale if the reserve has not been met. Buyer is responsible for transport of vehicle. Feel free to call or text 501-337-3792 with any questions. Thank you, God bless and happy bidding.

Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
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.
