this truck belongs to my granddaughter, her other grandfather left it to her when he passed away about 7 years ago when she was 8 .she does not want the truck to drive so I am helping her sell it. when he first restored the truck he drove it often .and in parades about 3 or 4 times a year. after he passed the family still drove it in the parades . i guess everyone lost interest and it sat for the last 3 years. I brought it to my house to clean it up and get it ready to sale, when I discovered the engine was cracked beside the petcock. what a shame because it had the original 216 in it. luckily he had a couple 6cyl engines sitting in his garage . so I got a 1956 235 and dropped it in. I really don't know any thing about the engine except what I could see and what I was told by a family member. he said it had been rebuilt .it does look to have a new valve pan gasket as well as a new head gasket. I installed a new fuel pump ,new plugs , new water pump, and because they are hard to find a new water pump pulley ( aluminum) and a new starter switch (solenoid) new fan belt and new lower radiator hose. I used the original 3 speed which had a very good clutch ,pressure plate and throw out bearing. the battery is shot so to get it started I drop in a 12 volt . after a couple of turns and a shot of gas it starts . it runs pretty good but the carb takes a little feathering to get it going.it is a solid lift engine so it rattles when you start it but as it warms it sound better. the truck is very very very solid I found 1 hole in the floor in front of the battery lid. the bed needs attention . when he restored the truck he put a lot of new parts on it including new bumpers , new headlight trims , new tailgate chains , new mirror, new seat , new floor mat and insulation ,new patch panel at the shifter ( fiberglass) ,new turn signal switch , new door panels ( not in good shape now) ,and probably some things I am leaving out. it has the 2 piece 8 lug rims .glass is not broken , but turning around the edges . no bondo that I can tell .guy who painted it did a lousy job. dash looks vantastic , glove box opens ,brakes work pretty good but while I was under it I saw where the pass rear was blocked off , wheel cyl probably bad, but still stops . I would buy this truck myself but because I am married into the family I would not buy it for 20,000$ because of what some would say. with that being said there can be no trades for the same reason. and she is not yet old enough to make a decision on a trade, so an auction is the only fair way to do it . I will assist with shipping as much as I can(which does not mean ill haul it 500 miles) but if I move it ,it has to be on Saturday .and we have to fully agree on price and distance BEFORE the auction ends and not 5 minutes before either. I am a nice guy ,but I don't have time for your low ball offers or your emails about how you can buy one cheaper. I have what I consider a reasonable reserve but if the auction ends 25$ below the reserve I may contact the high bidder , but if AND I MEAN IF YOU HAVE A SERIOUS QUESTION you can call my cell 606-224-0370 from 7 to 6 .otherwise email me and ill get back to you that evening. thanks for your interest.
On Nov-06-13 at 13:14:45 PST, seller added the following information: forgot, I will include original engine and all left over parts, in case someone might want to restore it .( block could be brazed if you've a mind to )it did run fine. also if the weather permits Saturday I will pull the carb and clean it ,buy I know the leather pump is dry rotted. this truck is by no means junk, the body is very strait and as best I can tell rust free with the exception of the one hole in the floor. there is enough metal in this truck to make 2 more by todays standard. you will not be disappointed with this truck, if its not what I say you don't own it. I have 20 more pictures so if you need to se something email me and ill send more . thanks |

Officially Official: Chevrolet replaces Daewoo name in Korea

There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
