This is a Texas original truck that I bought from the second
owner in 1981. I have enjoyed it tremendously, but due to my age and the coming
winter (I now live in Pittsburgh); I think it needs a new home. It is a daily
driver that I would trust to drive anywhere. Additionally, it has enough
options and comes with enough new parts that someone could make “Big Red” truly
special. It came from the factory with most all options as a Custom Cab
Deluxe model. I was also told it was a “Texas Dealer Special Edition” as it has
Genuine Chevrolet hood spears and crossed racing flag emblem that I have never
seen on another truck. Comes with the protecto-plate, original owners manual,
and many, many thousands of dollars of receipts. The truck was bought from
Graff Chevrolet in Grand Prairie, TX. I have a few more factory options that I
will include with the sale to make it one of the most highly-optioned trucks
you will see. The period-correct 327 4-barrel engine has about 20,000 miles
on the rebuild. The original Powerglide transmission and rear end have about
10,000 miles on the rebuild. All perform flawlessly. The correct original size
whitewall tires have about 5,000 miles on them. It passed rigorous PA Inspections the last two years, though
I have recently placed Historic plates on it so that I no longer have to waste
a day in an automotive waiting room. The few known issues are a slight wobble
in the steering wheel and a non-working horn button in the professionally
rebuilt steering column, so I will include another complete used column that
looks to be in great shape ($200). There is an exhaust leak on the left side,
it is a loose gasket. I have included a new “doughnut”. The oil pan drain bolt
leaks slightly, I have included a new Summit oil pan, drain bolt, one-piece
no-leak gasket and new ARP bolts ($92). I will include 5 quarts of Pennzoil and
new oil filter. The gas gauge doesn’t work, the gauge is new, and so I have
included a new sending unit for the tank ($75). The temperature gauge needs a
new sending unit and the Vintage Air system should be charged as I never use
it. Original seat, tracks, rebuild kit, and new red/white upholstery are
included ($300) to replace the almost new leather seat with flip-up middle cubby/console
and matching seat belts ($950) if desired, as is a complete set of new
replacement stainless steel exterior fleet side body molding/trim from Brothers
($600). While the truck is amazingly clean for its age, there are a
few small rust areas developing and a small dent in the passenger side bed. The
cab was replaced and the original VIN plate lost, but I have a new unstamped
plate with the correct original rosette rivets and reverse stamps to replace
the Chevrolet DD plate that goes above the driver’s door. I have two extra
rivets if anyone wants to make me an offer. The frame has the original VIN
stamped into it and matches the title. I also have a used and new GVW plate for
the side vent area. As mentioned, everything passed PA’s strict title and
inspection laws. I won’t divulge the reasonable reserve, but I am a motivated
seller, so I intend to sell the truck. Bid to win. I will help with shipping,
or you can fly into PIT, I will pick you up, and you can drive it home. $500
deposit from wining bidder in 3 days, reminder paid in cash or bank draft upon
pickup at my house. Check my feedback. ·

Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.
Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
