This little 46 Chevy is about as original as you get, except it had a repaint back in the 80s.The truck has the original motor, transmission, and enclosed driveshaft& differential. The body is in really good shape. It has a very few and small dent, and hardly any rust. the only rust I have found, is under the passenger side front fender on the angled portion of the fire wall. This spot is not rusted thru, and is very small. I have shown it in the pictures. There is a few very small rust blisters on the very bottom edge of the doors. The bumpers and grill will need to be re-chromed to make it perfect, or they look good for the age with a little surface rust. The paint is not a quality job, as they got a few runs in it. (this was done in the 80's). The wood in the bed is original, and has a couple of rotted places, as per pictures. The metal strips in bed are unbolted, but in great condition.  The metal and tailgate on the bed is really straight. The interior is fair to good(see pictures).Truck shows 17k miles, has new speedo cable, but speedometer doesn't work. Running boards and floor boards are in good shape. The truck is still a 6 volt system. It starts and runs and drives. The timing cover seal leaks, and the master cylinder line fitting drips.  I have drove the truck around a little, and is fun also gets a lot of thumbs up. I have been all under the truck while it was on my rack, and the condition is really amazing for it's age. The truck has 4 new 15" tires on it, and a new 16" spare. The original tires would have been 16". The battery carrier has been replaced with a poorly built battery box. Just looks bad. the rear shocks are on the truck, and both seem ok. One has the linkage partially broken. The front are absent. The truck has original type exhaust. The passenger door glass is cracked. I can't say for sure, but I think the other glass is okay, but old.  The truck has been stored inside, most all of it's life. You can drive far and wide, wear the tire off you car, and probably won't find another original truck even close to this one.  A deposit of $500.00 dollars(non refundable)  will be due, within 24 hours of the end of this auction. This can be paid cash or PayPal. The balance due within 7 days of the end of auction. This needs to be paid by only Good check(has to clear both my bank and yours, before picking up vehicle, or by cash before picking up vehicle. No other payment will be accepted, unless approved thru me and Ebay, before bidding. Vehicle needs to be picked up in one week, unless earlier arrangement has been made with me, thru Ebay. The vehicle will remain inside and locked up till you pick it up. I have described this to the best of my capabilities, and have tried to mention and point out what I know or have found about this vehicle. That said, look at all the pictures very carefully, and ask any questions, and I will try my absolute best to answer your questions to the best of my abilities.  Also, I won't arrange shipping, but will assist the shipper in loading. Buyer would be responsible for all arrangements, and vehicle has to be paid in full before it leaves my building. The truck is also for sale locally, so the auction may end at anytime.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General 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.

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.

2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
