I am selling my 1971 K-20 custom deluxe. This truck is an excellent driver and I have taken it on very long trips and aside from getting terrible gas mileage and not having AC, the truck drives without issue.

Here is what I have done to the truck recently:

New grille, bumper, and turn signal lenses

New steering linkage and steering gear

New front and rear shocks

New tires (cooper AT3s) at 95%+

Replaced driver's side rocker panel

New dash bezel, seat cover, dash pad, and "rubber" carpet

New windshield

New radiator

New rear wheel bearings and new brakes

New battery

Carburetor was rebuilt by me and the truck runs great. The carb is not original, but I do have the original quadrajet. Was going to rebuild it but never got the chance. At some point this was upgraded to an HEI distributor.

The truck has a couple auxillary fuel tanks that were added by some previous owner. I removed the filler neck from the passenger side and butt welded a patch in the hole. There was also a big CB antenna where holes were drilled through the cab and I butt welded a patch here too.

This truck originally had both upper and lower molding, but you can see most of it is missing. I believe this truck used to haul a camper, hence the missing trim and camper tie down hook provisions. I do have almost all of the NEW replacement trim I kept aside, with intentions on painting the truck but never did. This truck did not come with a radio. There is no hole in the cowl for an antenna and the original radio delete plate is present to block the hole.

The negatives on this truck - it needs a choke, and the washer motor pump needs replaced. It does have a dent in the top of the tailgate. There are a few other small dings from over the years but none would be difficult to repair if you wanted to paint this. The cigar lighter does not work. it simply needs the wire which runs from the back of the lighter element to the fuse block. Somebody had put in an aftermarket temp gauge into this truck and I broke the capillary line so that will need repaired or the temp gauge will not work. Truck does not overheat, however. I have an original gauge pod to put in the cluster.

The 4 wheel drive works great. This has an open diff with (I believe) dana 44 front and the heavy Eaton rear. At some stage, someone upgraded the front hubs to Warn. The engine was rebuilt by the guy I bought it from some years ago. (I have a receipt somewhere) I have no idea on the mileage of this but I would assume it is whatever the odometer says plus 100,000.

If you would like photos of anything in particular, please message me. I can also take videos of the truck running if needed. As I stated, it runs and drives great, and I would drive it anywhere. (OK maybe not with gas at 4.00/gal!)

Truck was built in Fremont, CA and sold new at Joe Romania Chevrolet. I have the paperwork for this truck.

I am perfectly willing to drive the truck to meet your shipper if that is to be your mode of transportation. It has current tags and is insured.

Aston Martin DBX and the craziest car redesigns | Autoblog Podcast #716

Fri, Feb 11 2022

In this episode of theÂ AutoblogÂ Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. They chat about slumming it in the Aston Martin DBX, the brand's first SUV, which they didn't have terribly high expectations for yet utterly blew them away. Riswick in particular notes it's one of the best cars he's ever driven, describing it as a family GT car. They then switch to a very different family vehicle: the 2022 Kia Carnival, and the unique second-row seating arrangement we've dubbed the "Captain Kirk chair." Greg has also been driving the Chevrolet Tahoe Premier. They also chat about two of Riswick's recent features: the 20 craziest car redesigns of the past 20 years and the best cars for snow.Â Autoblog Podcast #716 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify Â– Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS Â– Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 Â– Download the MP3 directly Rundown Cars we're driving Aston Martin DBX 2022 Kia Carnival 2022 Chevy Tahoe Features 20 craziest car redesigns of the last 20 years Best cars for snow Feedback Email Â– Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

GM recalls 200k Hummer H3s for fire risk

Thu, Jul 9 2015

An issue with fires erupting in some Hummers has prompted General Motors and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall for nearly 200,000 vehicles around the world. The bulk of them are in the United States. According to the first statement (below) obtained by Autoblog from GM, the issue stems from the HVAC system in Hummer H3 models. The connector module for the blower motor has, in certain cases, overheated, melted the surrounding plastic, and started a fire. 42 such cases have been reported, including three instances of occupants citing minor burns. GM confirms that two of those three cases lead to the vehicle being destroyed in the fire, but states that no crashes or fatalities have resulted. The issue affects 196,379 examples of the 2006-10 H3 wagon and the 2009-10 H3T pickup, with 164,993 estimated to be in the United States. In order to fix the issue, dealers are being instructed to replace the relevant parts of the connector and harness. In a second, unrelated campaign, GM is also calling in 50,731 Chevy Spark and Sonic small cars – 45,785 of them in the US Â– due to a software glitch. In those affected vehicles fitted with the base radio and OnStar system, the audio system may not be able to switch out of turn-by-turn direction mode, causing the display to go blank and all sound to mute Â– including key safety warnings. In addition, the system may not switch off, draining the battery. GM states that no crashes, injuries, or fatalities have resulted from this issue, and all that dealers will need to do in this case is reflash the software. Related Video: General Motors is recalling 164,993 2006-2010 model year HUMMER H3 and 2009-2010 model year HUMMER H3T models in the U.S. In certain vehicles, the connector module that controls the blower motor speed in the heat/vent/air conditioning (HVAC) system may overheat under extended periods of operation at high- and medium-high speeds. The heat could melt the plastic surrounding the connector module, increasing the risk of a fire. Dealers will replace the affected portion of the connector and harness. GM is aware of three reported minor burns and 42 fires but no crashes or fatalities related to this condition. Including Canada, Mexico and exports, the total recall population is 196,379. ### General Motors is recalling 45,785 2014-2015 model year Chevrolet Sparks, and 2015 model year Chevrolet Sonics in the U.S.
