Letting my factory 1970 Chevrolet 3/4 ton K20 4x4 go. Factory V8/4 Speed truck. I've had the truck about a year and it is in mostly original condition.  Never lifted or modified.  Just a nice old solid 4x4 and they are getting harder to find.  Looking to make room for a new project and pay some bills.  That being said I may entertain a trade.   

Paint/Body- 100% rust free.  Truck is extremely solid for a 69-72.  Roof and rain gutters are excellent.  Floors, cab corners and kick panels are solid.  Cowl area is clean.  Bed floor and front panel are straight and rust free.  I have looked for bubbles, rust or heavy bondo and have not found any.  Truck has had the rockers and two of the cab supports replaced in the past.  Paint is nice and body is very straight.  Has two small dings by the cab light.  Bed is coated with a rhino liner but, is damaged in some areas and inner wheel well have some dents.  Glass is all good except the windshield.  Glass company cracked it during install.  Firewall and interior retain original paint and chalk markings.  The weatherstripping in the door jambs and window felts are all new.  New door handles, bumper, tailgate trim, tail lamp lenses,  NOS grille inner and outer. Tailgate is mint.  No dents or rust. 

Suspension/Wheels/Tires-Truck has very rare 16.5x8.75 wheels. It took me forever to find these and they look absolutely killer. They were painted the same white as the cab top and rear bumper. Has very nice Cooper 33x12.50's mounted on them. I have the factory rear caps installed and may have the fronts by end of auction.  Truck has front power disc brakes and power steering.  New warn locking hubs. 4.10 axles.  Absolute stump puller.  Frame was coated with POR15 and underside of bed was coated with bedliner.  Overall the underside is pretty clean.  The rear leafs have helper springs installed and the truck has a very stout stance.  Drives down the road like an old 4x4.  Has a little play in the steering but, I've driven much newer trucks that have the same play.  

Engine/Transmission-Truck has a V8 engine out of an 80's Van.  Runs strong.  Edelbrock intake and carb. Rams horn exhaust manifolds.  High energy ignition.  New starter, battery, battery cables.  SM465 4 speed transmission. NP205 transfer case is gear driven not chain.  Sounds good but, if I were to keep it I would change the exhaust out for something quieter and ran all the way out the back.  

Interior-Not much to say here. Original paint on the inside of the cab.  The inside of the doors have been resprayed and look good.  Rubber mat does not fit well and I would replace with a better one if I were to keep it.  Dash pad and sun visors are excellent.  New dash bezel and lense, new shift boots, brake pedal covers, white arm rest, radio delete plate. Seat has been recovered with a factory houndstooth cover and new foam.  The dash lights work but, most of the factory gauges still need to be hooked up.  

Overall a nice solid 3/4 ton  K20.  These are hard to find in any condition and this one has a great look with the color combo.  Willing to look at trades and I will assist in shipping this truck anywhere.  Clear title in my name.  $500 deposit required  within 24 hours.  Full payment within 5 days.  Can store the truck as long as it is paid for.  Sold as is where is.   photo IMG_1784_zpsd95c0c50.jpg  photo IMG_1766_zps5499e52c.jpg  photo IMG_1767_zpse33cb123.jpg  photo IMG_1768_zps07bbc1d5.jpg  photo IMG_1774_zps1e0f730a.jpg  photo IMG_1785_zps2c26d867.jpg  photo IMG_1794_zps17c1effd.jpg  photo IMG_1792_zps787f9bb5.jpg  photo IMG_1791_zps737bc2bb.jpg  photo IMG_1790_zps23892d77.jpg  photo IMG_1765_zps5ab28d6c.jpg  photo IMG_1758_zps7067bea0.jpg  photo IMG_1752_zps1afdbbd2.jpg  photo IMG_1751_zps0ac80d39.jpg  photo IMG_1750_zps06485c91.jpg  photo IMG_1749_zps36fd1f35.jpg  photo IMG_1748_zps4051be8d.jpg  photo IMG_1747_zpsce6a3500.jpg  photo IMG_1741_zps7a465eca.jpg  photo IMG_1740_zps408769ab.jpg  photo IMG_1739_zps7998e86c.jpg  photo IMG_1737_zps537a51f1.jpg  photo IMG_1742_zps22dd6670.jpg  photo IMG_1760_zpsfa5bb37f.jpg  photo IMG_1761_zpsccd31f73.jpg  photo IMG_1763_zps955f14af.jpg  photo IMG_1764_zpsf71532be.jpg  photo IMG_1770_zpsbdfd66f7.jpg  photo IMG_1772_zps1b04e7e7.jpg  photo IMG_1781_zps7a877d5d.jpg  photo IMG_1780_zps4e830161.jpg  photo IMG_1779_zps9bb0b5a3.jpg  photo IMG_1778_zps18d714ed.jpg  photo IMG_1777_zpscc8cfc5a.jpg  photo IMG_1776_zps501e0cfb.jpg  photo IMG_1789_zps9d842dfe.jpg  photo IMG_1787_zps6275fbb7.jpg  photo IMG_1759_zps83b765b5.jpg  photo IMG_1757_zps8636bdf7.jpg  photo IMG_1756_zps73fdecc9.jpg  photo IMG_1755_zps2bf3f1e4.jpg  photo IMG_1753_zpsd89fc533.jpg  photo IMG_1735_zps14768e43.jpg  photo IMG_1733_zps7bebf288.jpg  photo IMG_1732_zpsb9cd25a0.jpg  photo IMG_1730_zpsbbb1ee96.jpg  photo IMG_1729_zps6289e571.jpg  photo IMG_1743_zpsc921bb4e.jpg

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.

GM announces $7 billion Michigan factory investment, most going to EVs

Tue, Jan 25 2022

GM announced a $7 billion investment in Michigan manufacturing, much of which is earmarked for EV production. Four sites are included, but the key elements are a new battery cell plant in Lansing and the conversion of GM's existing Orion Township facility to expand production of the forthcoming Chevrolet Silverado EV and its GMC Sierra sibling.  GM says it is the largest investment announcement in company history and that it will create 4,000 new jobs. It also says 1,000 jobs will be retained. "We are building on the positive consumer response and reservations for our recent EV launches and debuts, including the GMC Hummer EV, Cadillac Lyriq, Chevrolet Equinox EV and Chevrolet Silverado EV," said GM CEO Mary Barra.  GM says the Orion expansion and new battery plant will support an increase in full-size electric truck production capacity to 600,000 units. This is in addition to the Factory ZERO facility in Detroit that will also be constructing the electric Silverado and Sierra.  The Orion Township factory current builds the Chevrolet Bolt EV and EUV, and will continue to do so during the plant's conversion. GM did not indicate what will happen with the Bolts once that conversion is complete or whether all will continue to be built at Orion. They do not use the Ultium vehicle architecture. GM will build other EV models at three other factories that are under construction or being converted. They are located in Spring Hill, Tennessee, Ingersoll, Ontario, and Ramos Arizpe, Mexico. GM says that it will have the ability to produce 1 million electric vehicles by 2025. The Ultium Cells Lansing facility is a $2.6 billion joint investment by GM and LG Energy Solution. GM says it alone will create 1,700 jobs once fully operational by late 2024. It will join two other GM Ultium Cells battery factories currently under construction in the United States, one in Ohio and the other in Tennessee.  Not all of the $7 billion investment will be for EVs. It also announced $510 million of the total will go toward upgrading the Lansing Delta Township Assembly to produce the next-generation Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Money will also go to upgrading Lansing Grand River Assembly.

Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
