1983 Chevrolet K30 Short Bed Dually 4x4 on 2040-cars

Year:1983 Mileage:77500
Location:

Southwest, Pennsylvania, United States

Southwest, Pennsylvania, United States

NOTE:  The truck was currently enhanced for inspection and had a new inspection sticker on it.  The only reason the title shows reconstructed is because it was rebuilt into a custom truck. There is nothing wrong with the truck at all and has never been wrecked.  For sale is a custom 1 ton 1983 Chevy short bed 4X4 dually.  This truck used to be a wrecker until the frame was shortened up to put a six foot bed on the truck.  It has a strong running big block 454 motor in it that I recently got a Weiand intake and a Holley 750 double pumper carb installed on it.  The truck show 77,500 miles on the odometer but I have no proof that that is correct.  Overall driving performance from the truck is impressive, and it runs very strong and never skips a beat for being about 30 years old.  This truck has a 4 speed manual transmission in it with 4.56 gearing and was made for hauling or pulling.  Inside the cab is in good shape for its age with the usual tear on the side of the drivers seat.  Little things like the controls don't work to change the heat from the defrosters need fixed.  Aftermarket CD player was installed with different speakers.  Dash pad has a blue cover on it and the door panels are in good shape also with minimal fading but they need new trim work installed.  The Speedometer, Voltage, and Gas Gauge all currently work.  The oil pressure gauge and the water gauge work sometimes and other times they are bottomed out at zero.  All of the lights outside of the truck currently work except for one of the license plate lights.  High and low beams also work nicely with the switch on the floor.  The floor is a vinyl mat fitted out of a newer Chevy truck so it is not original in any way.  On the outside of the truck, the body had currently was painted in the newer Chevy Topaz Blue Metallic and looks pretty nice.  The bed was taken off and a spot of rust on the passenger side was fixed with a small panel right behind the wheel well and there is a small crack there where the putty was.  The truck comes with Bushwacker flares if you would like them because the tires stick out just a little bit because it is a cab and chassis rear end and not a wider dually rear end.  In the pictures it has mud flaps on it and I have currently taken them off, but they will come with the truck too.  When the bed was taken off it was wire brushed and undercoated with rubberized undercoating and is still in great shape, and comes with the bed liner.  The tailgate that is on it now is black because it was the nicest one that I have and due to little time was not able to paint it.  Underneath on the frame there is no rot just a little bit of surface rust starting to form on the leaf springs and on the rear end.  Overall, the truck runs strong, shifts great, and pulls hard.  The only mechanical problems under the hood that I know of is that there is a pinhole in the power steering hose "leaves drips in parking stall sometimes" and it needs a fan shroud.  The rear end sometimes has some fluid on it but they told me it is just a gasket and it does not leak a significant amount it just sometimes leaves a few drops here and there.  There are too many things to list with this truck so any questions feel free to email me.  A non refundable $500.00 deposit is required after within 24 hours of the auction ending.  The vehicle needs to be picked up within 5 days of the auction ending. Also the truck is for sale locally so I have the right to end the auction early if need be.

Thanks for looking.

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
