1946 CHEVY 1/2 TON SHORT BED

Relisted due to winning bidder not reading the entire description, truck does not run.

This is a chance to own a solid, and almost complete '46 Chevy pickup.
The pictures pretty much tell the condition, there is a small amount of rust in the bottom of the doors as usual on these trucks but it doesn't really take away from the truck as well as a couple other small places but overall it's very solid. The fenders are all very usable, the cab is solid over the windshield, the cab corners and rocker panels are nice, the bedsides are surprisingly straight. The tailgate is a little rough but I think it's useable, there is no bed floor. The previous owner removed the front clip and disassembled a few pieces of the sheet metal around the radiator area, etc. Therefore the hood is not attached and the front clip isn't bolted solid, all of the pieces that were removed are in the floor of the truck. The only thing I see that is missing is the floorboard piece that bolts in which is available aftermarket and the drivers door panel as well as both door glasses. He also removed the components from inside the drivers door but they appear to be all there. It has the original 216 engine and 4 speed transmission, I haven't tried to turn the engine over but I'd guess that it's stuck. There is no title for the truck.

This is a hard to find truck and a very solid start for a restoration or rat rod, everyone is wanting these Art Deco '41-'46 Chevy pickups and as you know they are becoming almost impossible to find.

Please ask any questions BEFORE bidding. The truck is located in Mansfield Missouri and can be inspected at any time if you wish. Shipping is the sole responsibility of the buyer and the truck will have to be picked up at my location.

Upon completion of the auction a $500 down payment is due within 24 hours by PayPal and the balance is due within seven calendar days by cash or certified check only.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
