  1. 1983 CLASSIC CHEVY DUALLY

Hello!

Up for Auction this week is a legend in the Automotive History world for best designed trucks of the era. The Silverado is a "Gold Standard" truck for performance and collectibles alike. The early 80's models boasted a wide stance and aggressive square body that truck enthusiasts have always loved, escpecially me. This truck captures both the essence of a hotrod mechanics dream make over or a farm boys love for classic functional muscle. Please take a look at the photos and a brief description below and bid to win this American Hero.

I bought this truck off of a farm where I am working construction in Ghent, Ky. It appealed to me not only for the price, but for condition in which I found the body. Nearly perfect after 31 years with a few minor flaws, it stands true to the momento of Cheverolet. "Lock a Rock" this truck is still kicking and ready to pull. It has a 4 barrell carb with electronic fuel pump (aftermarket) combined with small block 350 and a 4spd transmission.

  1. Orinal Miles unknown, approx 33k on the dash
  2. Motor was a 454, replaced with 350
  3. Motor doesn't seem to have any major oil leaks
  4. Clutch still has full engagement
  5. Exhaust was cut off at the headers and replaced with home made system
  6. All lights and windshield wipers work, need new blades
  7. Rear view mirror is in truck but needs to be glued
  8. Minor tear in seat (bench seat)
  9. Full size tool box
  10. 5th wheel ball in bed
  11. 7pin connection, 4pin connection, and 2" Receiver built on to truck
  12. Cowl Hood (needs fiberglass work)

Winner of the Auction will receive free 12 gauge pump shotgun if bid reaches above $2300.

A portion of the proceeds is going to the Wounded Warrior Foundation, as an OIF veteran I feel we need to give back to our brothers.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
