Underneath the dust, rust and broken glass is one of the best examples of Chevrolet history that would love to be restored or rodded out.  This Art Deco 1941 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup has been around the block a time or two, but I'm guessing you have never seen one quite like this.  This truck was a rat rod before rat rods were cool.  Just look at the custom front fenders, chicken wire grille and wooden running boards.  This one just speaks for itself.  Please look at the pictures to see this in full detail and don't speculate anything.  If you need more details please ask and I'll do my best to get you the answers you need.  As you can probably guess this truck has been sitting outside for several years.  It is a fairly complete and solid vehicle, but will require a total restoration or used as parts or a rat rod.  Parts are rusted, glass is broken and the multi-colored paint is peeling, but you just can't make patina like that.  The doors have missing parts but do open, as does the windshield.  The hood is not the best, but does operate.  The box came from another truck and is just sitting on the frame.  The engine is stuck, the steering box is locked up and the steering column is broken.  The "mileage" odometer reading is unknown, but is exempt on the title because of the age.  This will roll onto your trailer and I can help with a tractor and loader.  The wheels are from a mid 70's chevy 4WD truck with pretty nice 31x10.5x15 tires.  This has a clear, clean and current Nebraska title as a 1941 Chevrolet Pickup with the model # matching the vin tag.  As you can see in the picture the vin tag is all faded, but the stamped vin  # is intact.  If you are the winning bidder on this auction and you only want the title and vin tag, I will gladly send those to you free of charge and reimburse you $100 from the final bid for the truck.  If you only want parts off this truck, you can gladly come and remove what you want and I will dispose of the rest.  I will continue to store this truck outside in the elements up to 1 year free of charge until you come pick it up.  If I still have it after that year is up and no other arrangements have been made I will consider the truck abandoned and I will resell again.  This truck is selling as is where is with no guarantee.  I will require a $200 deposit via pay pal within 72 hours of auction end, and the remaining amount within 30 days or cash at the time of pickup.  Please plan on picking this up yourself.  I have worked with shippers before and some have been difficult to deal with.  The shipper I would use with no questions asked, is Marc Springer from Snortn Boar Transport.  You may have seen his work on the A&E TV show Shipping Wars.  He shipped my 1940 1 1/2 ton on the first season episode "Bullship"  I have already contacted Marc, and he would be glad to ship for me again.  Who knows, maybe it would make it on TV again.  I would consider delivering this myself within a 200 mile radius of me for $2.00 a loaded mile.  So if it would help for me to get it a little closer to you, it may be a possibility.  My reserve is low on this truck as I feel the title is worth it alone.  But if you were to part and scrap this out there is plenty of $$$ to make.  I do have other parts that may be available to buy depending on when this truck is picked up.  Thanks for looking, and please email me for any questions and or concerns.

GM sees 'strong year' in 2018, then gold in Chevy Silverado for 2019

Tue, Jan 16 2018

DETROIT — General Motors said on Tuesday it expects earnings in 2018 to be largely flat compared with 2017, but that profits should pick up pace in 2019 as its revamped line of high-margin pickup trucks hits the U.S. market. The 2018 earnings outlook was above market expectations, sending GM shares up more than 3 percent in premarket trading. "GM had a very good 2017 as we continued to transform our company to be more focused, resilient and profitable," GM Chief Executive Mary Barra said in a statement. "We are positioned for another strong year in 2018 and an even better one in 2019." GM and its Detroit rivals, Ford and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, are bringing on new trucks at a time when overall U.S. new vehicle sales have been falling, but truck sales continue to grow as consumers abandon passenger cars in favor of pickups, SUVs and crossovers. GM on Saturday fired a new round in the battle for profits from one of the U.S. auto industry's most lucrative segments when it showed a new generation of its Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck at the Detroit auto show. The new Silverado, a highlight of the event, is the successor to GM's best-selling vehicle in North America. Sales of the current Silverado rose nearly 2 percent to 585,000 vehicles in 2017. In the coming months, the company will also reveal a revamped GMC Sierra pickup truck. U.S. new vehicle sales fell 2 percent in 2017 after hitting a record high in 2016, and are expected to drop further in 2018 as interest rates rise and more late-model used cars return to dealer lots to compete with new ones. GM said on Tuesday that while it retools a factory in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, to make the new pickup trucks, it will shift some production to an Oshawa, Ontario, plant in order to avoid missing sales in a hot market for the vehicles. The No. 1 U.S. automaker said it will record a $7 billion non-cash charge for its fourth-quarter 2017 earnings related to deferred tax assets. GM said it expects capital expenditure in 2018 of around $8.5 billion, about $1 billion of which will go toward funding self-driving car technology. Last week, the company said it is seeking U.S. government approval for a fully autonomous car — one without a steering wheel, brake pedal or accelerator pedal — to enter the automaker's first commercial ride-sharing fleet in 2019. GM said it expects 2017 earnings per share at the high end of its previously forecast range of $6 to $6.50.

Is this '47 Chevrolet a rat rod or a sports car?

Sun, May 22 2016

These days there are plenty of vehicles that blur the conventional automotive class structures. For instance, was the Honda Crosstour a wagon or an SUV? And what exactly was the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet? Regardless, those line-blurring cars (or trucks) are out there, and though this one didn't roll off a production line, it's still quite the automotive head-scratcher. Hailing from Missouri, this epic creation is one part mad science experiment, one part 1947 Chevrolet pickup, and one part '95 Mercury Cougar. Add it all up and you get an awesome truck-sports-car hybrid, complete with an outrageous wing and a V8 to boot. And interestingly enough, it's up for sale . RELATED: Check out this Wild-Styled Lamborghini Rat Rod So how does it all come together? According to the listing, the Chevrolet truck cab (which had previously been chopped) was sanded down to bare metal and given a thorough shellacking of clear coat. It was then melded together with the front end of a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck, and set low to the ground on Bilstein suspension drop spindles. Stance achieved. But instead of fielding an engine from either of those pickups, it pulls its heart from a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV—a big 5.3-liter V8 heart, that is. It comes backed-up to a GM Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Towards the rear however is where things get really interesting. A Copper Pearl coated tube frame chassis both attaches the rear independent suspension (a la Mercury Cougar) to the racy spoiler, as well as secures the rat rod's rear-mounted radiator, fan, and fuel tank. I'm not quite sure why, but it just looks glorious. RELATED: Reports Say Mid-Engine Corvette Will Arrive in 2018 Inside the vintage cab, the Chevrolet furthers its racing proclivities (it's said to have won burnout and auto-cross events) with a pair of harnessed racing seats, a drift brake, a detachable steering wheel, and a tachometer with oil and temperature gauges, but oddly no speedometer. The shifter is a crescent wrench. And its shift boot? That's a Crown Royal Purple bag. All in all, this grin-worthy Frankenstein creation tallies up bits and pieces from four different vehicles (five if you include the Camaro wheels), which make it truly a mash-up of epic proportions.

Ranking full-size pickup trucks by the size of their discounts

Tue, Oct 20 2020

Each and every month, full-size pickup trucks dominate the new-car sales reports in America. It's been that way for years — the Ford F-Series has been America's best-selling vehicle for 38 consecutive years — and it's not going to change any time soon. With that in mind, we've compiled this list of discounts on brand-new full-size pickup trucks using data provided by Truecar, including their average retail prices, average transaction prices and discounts in dollars and percentage off list price. We've also created a visualization of the best deals Americans are scoring on the three best-selling models in America. If you're looking for the absolute biggest discount you can find on a new truck, look no further than your nearest Ram dealership, then scour the lot for a leftover 2019 1500 model. Buyers are averaging nearly 13% off the cost of the 2019 Ram, paying an average transaction cost of $41,667. That's $6,071 off the average retail price, which equals the best truck deal in October. The 2020 edition isn't discounted nearly as far, averaging $2,852 off for an average transaction price of $48,904. The next best deal is on the 2019 Ford F-150; its average transaction price of $43,064 equals $3,843 off its sticker price. The 2020 F-150's $2,810 discount means buyers are paying around $47,300. They should know, though, that a brand-new model is coming for 2021, so we'd expect bigger discounts on remaining 2020 inventory in the coming months. Moving to General Motors, the best deal you'll find is on leftover 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500s, which are selling for an average of $47,043. That's $2,852 off the sticker price. Interestingly, 2020 Silverados are seeing slightly lower transaction prices at $46,009, but with a smaller average discount of $1,693. The 2020 GMC Sierra is mechanically similar to the Chevy, but aimed at buyers who want a bit more luxury. That's reflected in the 2020 Sierra 1500's average transaction price of $54,491, which is $2,131 off its sticker.
