1955 Chevy 3100 half ton short bed pickup with the desirable big back window and a 1957 hood. Clean, straight, solid truck just needing minor finishing. A magnet was stuck all over this entire body-it is very solid; the only place it showed work was done was the very lower cab corners, but these areas are finished, and appear good and well done. The paint is a satin Heritage red, with new VERY nice grey heavy vinyl upholstery and new grey carpeting. The engine is a strong running 350, with a Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Because of health reasons, I haven't been able to accomplish as much as I've wanted to do to finish this truck. Most of the no-fun stuff has already been done. I'll list below what has been done, as well as what is still needed....
Work done, a new parts installed, etc.:
Restored instrument cluster, restored window regulators, new inside door mechanisms, tilt column installed, beautiful new seat upholstery and new carpeting, new windshield installed, new glove box (needs installing), new door weatherstripping and window fuzzies (need installing), new exhaust, new rear fender welting (needs installing), new 1 wire alternator, plus the following NEW chrome parts already installed: Front bumper, rear bumper, grill, headlight bezels, tail lights, parking lights, windshield wiper bezels, tail gate chains, exterior door handles, window cranks and door handles, etc.
Still needs to be done:
Wiring the lights, horn, etc. (all the wires are labeled from the instrument cluster; wiring is done to start and run motor), bleed the brakes, install door weatherstripping and window fuzzies (included), level the bed, and some other things.
This is a very good, solid, very desirable body style pickup, just needing a few things finished- Almost all of the no fun stuff has been done. Call me (Joe) with any questions you may have at 801 455-2467 or 801 571-8580.
A paypal non-refundable deposit of $500 would be appreciated, with the balance paid by bank wire transfer or cash in person.

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
