I am selling my beloved 1966 Chevrolet (long-wheel base) big back window pickup.  This is all original and as clean as I have seen.  I bought this pickup in Dalton, GA in January, 2011.  At the time I talked to the previous owner's daughter about the pickup.  The pickup was ordered and bought new in June, 1966 by the Harley Davidson Corporation for the Farrows dealership in Columbus, Ohio.  There it sat in the dealership with new motorcycles displayed in the back of the pickup for nearly 30 years.  The wooden bed is still original and has a stamp of when the wood was milled.  In approximately 1995, her father who worked for Harley Davidson retired and either was given the pickup or was able to buy it at that time.  Due to his death, was when I was given opportunity to buy it.  I have put approximately 300 miles on it since January, 2011.  I have always kept it under cover in my climate controled garage which also has a dehumidifier.  I have never driven it in the rain.  I have been meticulous on maintenance.  Other than oil and lubes there has been only some engine seals replaced since I have owned it.  It always cranks right up and drives like new even after sitting a month.  It was repainted once in its original Cardinal red paint in the early 1990's.  The color to me is so beautiful.  The chrome shines like it is brand new.  The wheels and tires are not original but look very nice.  The interior is all original with radio and original cloth seat that is in immaculate condition.  It does have power steering.  I have included a picture of where the pickup has had the "Ziebart" process before being picked up at the dealership when new.  It is a process where small holes were drilled and then an undercoating was sprayed into the inside of the steel body panels to help prevent rust from occuring especially in the northern states.  Everything works and the pickup runs and drives like new.  I don't want to sell, but I must due to a death in my family.  My reserve is reasonable for the quality and originality of the pickup.

 

Please no foreign transactions and no trades.  A payment of 10% must be put down immediately upon the ending of the auction through Paypal.  The full amount must be paid by money order or cashier's check within 72 hours of the end of auction.

 

Thanks!  And Happy Bidding!!!  I will answer all questions as timely as possible.  Bill

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
