Here is one of the most popular 1972 Chevy Pickups with unheard of original paint.  Not perfect but nice enough that it can be enjoyed without restoration expense or restoration headaches.  Trucks like this with a little patina will draw as big of a crowd at a car show as show quality truck.  Additionally this truck can be driven without reducing its value (unlike a perfect restoration truck) 

MECHANICAL

400 Big Block was replaced years ago with healthy 350.  Plenty of power available.  4 barrel carb + dual exhaust + GM HEI distributor.  Turbo 350 transmission shifts perfectly.  Transmission pan is leaking and will leave a spot on floor.
Air Conditioning system is complete but will need attention before it is usable.  Compressor is not locked up but previous owner removed drive belt.
Drives straight and brakes straight.

BODY

Body is very straight and only has 2 defects.  There is a dent to front edge of hood and a scrape to lower section of passenger door.  A previous owner installed a tonneau cover to bed so the snaps were installed to top edge of bed.  As you can see from the pictures ...... truck is almost rustfree.  I have close-up pictures of rockers if you need more detail.  Bed floor and tailgate are nice.  Paint is still pretty solid.  You can see the white 2 toned areas are showing some wear but the orange is still intact underneath.  Some surface rust showing on the trim area on right bed side but a spray of wd40 from time to time should keep under control.

INTERIOR

Interior is nice and ready to be used.  Seat cover, headliner, dash, door panels and carpet have all been replaced in last 5 years.  Steering wheel is an aftermarket wood accented style.

SUMMARY

Overall a solid truck that would be a pleasure to own.

2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696

Fri, Sep 17 2021

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
