For auction is a 1966 Chevrolet C20 longbed pickup truck. The truck is 3/4 ton with a 292 straight 6 engine, 4-on-the-floor. Runs and drives, was a daily driver. It will get the job done, but it won't win any beauty contests while doing so.

The guts:

The truck has never given me any problems with starting or running. The engine is strong, but gives a little miss if you quickly punch it to the floor. Here is a quick video of me starting her up, and giving it that little punch. It's never been a problem while driving, I suspect it's a timing thing. The truck leaks a lot of oil, it will need gaskets all around if you value your driveway. It has a new alternator, new starter, has had the same battery in it since at least 2009 when I bought it, needs new battery cables and there is some crummy stuff around the top of the radiator sometimes. Other than that, I'm not really sure about the rest, as I'm not terribly mechanically inclined. The back brakes have been totally replaced, but the front ones need to be done. I haven't looked, but judging by the condition of the back brakes when I did them, a whole overhaul should be done on the front.

The exterior:

Rust-Oleum flat black. The exterior is in need of restoration, as there are numerous dents and small rust holes (and one possible puncture hole?) throughout the bed and body. There are rust bubbles in what the truck guys call the "usual areas," for these old trucks, meaning the lower fenders, corners of the doors. The holes for the chrome (which is missing) are filled in on the passenger side. The wood and rails in the bed are totally shot. The previous owner cut out plywood to lay down in the bed, so it is useable for truck stuff. I bought a new windshield and gasket in 2009 when I bought it the truck, and it is still in perfect condition. The rear window is probably original and pretty scratched, the side windows and wind wings are not cracked. The rear tires were purchased in 2011 and the front tires were purchased a few months later.

The interior:

There is The floor liner is torn on the driver's side, and the bench seat is torn on the driver's side, however the seat back is intact. The inside of the cab has been sprayed Rust-Oleum satin black, with a blue-green for the accents. There is no radio, there is a heater. New dome light, new turn signal assembly.

The story:

In 2009 we needed a reliable, large truck for making trips to the home improvement store while we renovated our house. We hauled everything from pallets of tiles and bricks, to lumber, to stacks of drywall 20 sheets high in the back of this truck and she never batted an eye. The truck was my daily driver up until May 2013. Now that we're done working on the house, and I have secured a cushy job that allows me to work from home, we have no need for a heavy duty pickup, and would like to move to something smaller (while we're at it, you know anybody selling a 67-72 Blazer?).

First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.
