1971 Chevy Truck K-20 Custom Deluxe Disc Brakes Semi-original on 2040-cars
Hermiston, Oregon, United States
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. |

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra debut all-new designs, three new engines
Thu, 13 Dec 2012General Motors has finally dropped the curtain on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra. Both trucks have undergone substantial revisions with updated versions of the company's 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 engines. In a shot across the bows of both Ford and Chrysler, GM says it won't use a V6 engine adapted from passenger car applications. Instead, it developed the 4.3-liter engine based on its proven truck-duty architecture.
All three mills will boast direct injection fuel systems as well as a new cylinder head design. Combined with a revised piston, the new engines feature a smaller combustion chamber with a compression ratio of 11:1 or higher depending on the application. Cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing are all part of the recipe, and each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with auto grade breaking. So far, no fuel economy or horsepower figures have been released, though GM says the new engines will best their predecessors in both areas.
Outside, the trucks feature a number of enhancements to reduce drag and wind noise, and GM claims both the Silverado and Sierra will offer buyers some of the quietest cabins in the class. Extended cab models now feature front-hinged rear doors to allow easier access to the back passenger area, and Crew Cab buyers can now select between a five-foot, eight-inch bed or a six-foot, six-inch bed. Buyers with a mind toward going off road will also rejoice in the return of the Z71 package, complete with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and additional under-body protection.

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
