Lincoln, California, United States

This is a Very Nice Chevy truck. Big widow, Short bed Fleet side. With the original aluminum grill and chrome front bumper. Has later style rear chrome bumper that looks very nice and is a lot stronger than original.  Original black and yellow plates. Currently registered and insured in my name. It was parked inside a shop in the LA area in 1992. It sat there dry and protected from the elements untill I bought it on ebay in 2012. The motor was frozen (it was a 1972 350) and it had the stock suspension on it. So I removed everything and upgraded to the following. And I still have the original front suspension if you want it.  

 Newer Drive train from my 1992 Chevy Caprice That was really owned by a little old lady. I used all the accessories and brackets from the 1992. I replaced every gasket and seal when the motor was out. I also installed all new motor mounts and transmission mounts. New water pump. New alternator. Rebuilt HEI distributor with new Plug wires and AC Delco plugs. New Edelbrock aluminum intake. Rochester carburator. New chrome valve covers and Air cleaner. New temperature sending unit. New heater hoses. New radiator hoses. New electric fuel pump. New electric radiator fan with temp relay. All new wiring with seperate fuses. All the gauges work like they should. 

The bed. It is super straight and rust free. Still has the original wood. It was painted with spatter paint about 25 years ago and needs repainted. But the wood is still good. 

The guy before me installed extra gas tanks under the body and did a very nice job. He frenched in the gas tank caps into the bed and did a clean job on that too. I am not using them. I installed a new sending unit in the original gas tank and cleaned it out before installing it behind the seat like it was from the factory.

The drive train has New 90wt rear end oil and gasket. New drive shaft with new u-joints balanced. New tranny pan gasket and filter and flued.  New torq converter lock up  kit with relay. 

The Brakes have all new rubber hoses related. New master brake cylinder. New fluid. They work great. 

Steering. New power steering pump. New p/s hoses. New Fluid. New alignment. Steering wheel sits straight the truck goes down the road nice.   Even the turn signals turn off after turns like it should. 

The motor and tranny only have about 110,000 miles on them. It starts up every time hot or cold. Has never leaked a drop of anything since I installed them about 3000 miles ago.  

This truck is not what I consider a show truck. But it really gets a lot of attention. And I have used it in 3 parades and always get thumbs up.  It has had one paint job on it and that was done about 25 years ago. It Shines very nice but I found a few places that have rust. Both fender bottoms and the left bottom cab corner. I took good pictures of them . When I removed the original floor mat. There was some small spots of rust by the door sill about the size of a pencil.. so I put P.O.R.15 on the areas that needed it. There was also a small hole under the heater about 2-3 inches around. I sealed it also. The rest of the floor is the original metal and factory paint. The hood got a bad scratch in it from my garage door opener. I took a picture of that too. The under side has most of its original under coating on it. 

The only things it still needs is the speedo hooked up. And the A/C was blowing cold until the freon leaked out the compressor seal last week. So you will need a rebuilt compressor for a 1992 caprice. Also the sun roof leaks. I have a roof from another truck if you want to go back original. I am sure I forgot something so 

Truck is located in Lincoln, California. 95648.

Buyer is responsible for shipping.

This truck is over 45 years old and may have some things needing attention. It is sold as is. Recommend having a 3rd party do an inspection for the buyer to get his or her own personal opinion before bidding. 

PLEASE ask any questions before bidding. 

PLEASE READ ENTIRE AD BEFORE CALLING. Thanks Scott 916-521-8943

The reason I am selling it is to buy a 1967 convertible mustang.

Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.

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:

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
