Here's a very nice example of a 1947 chevy thriftmaster pickup. 1st year of new Body style. This truck was aquired through the estate of a Ohio Gentleman, it sat in his Barn for approx. 4 years. It came with a photo album of the restoration process. It has been restored and there has been body work done, which is not perfect but very presentible. Mechanicals look to have been completely gone through, Gas tank, exhaust, brakes, clutch int. etc.. It has a 4 speed trans. Comes with original radio. I believe it has its original 6 volt system, but some has changed the coil and points over to 12 volts. Its starts right up and drives runs and stops, no engine smoke is present. Has new wood in truck bed. I believe I would change the voltage back over to 6 volt or complete the 12 volt switch. I hav'nt drove the truck alot But having driven it a few miles I would think the drum brakes should be adjusted to make it stop better. It is a nice truck, that has been restored by previous owner but is a nice example of a truck of this error. Also the door will need adjusted so they close all the way they seem to not want to latch but The do shut with the door being locked, and the drivers side window needs the regulator adjusted or replaced, it rolls up then drifts back down about 6 inches. there is a replacement regulator with the truck. Truck comes with clear Ohio title. Has a new or rebuilt set of gauges. I don't know the history of the truck coming from an estate and being as old as it is It is being sold as is, please ask questions with this in mind. I may consider buy now offers or trade or partial trade , but would rather sell for cash. Buyer pays 1000 deposit through paypal in 24 hrs. Final payment in certified funds in 5 days. Truck located in Kingsville Ohio 44048, Right off I-90 transport assesible. Pick up in 30 days.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General 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.
More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
