Rare 1935 Chevy Pickup Truck Excellent Condition 53k Miles!!! on 2040-cars
Hayden, Idaho, United States
|
I am regretfully selling my beautiful 1935 Chevy
pickup truck. I found this truck on the old Chevy Stovebolt website while
looking for a neat truck to purchase. If you
look on their website you can still see it as Ken Brown's 1935. This
truck runs excellent. I am the third owner and have only had it a couple
of years. Ken purchased it from the original owner who was in The Dalles
Oregon. He kept in the garage for its entire life and only brought it out
on occasion for parades. It had a professional paint job sometime in the
1970s. So you can see some flaws in the paint near the cracks. 53K original miles from what Ken told me, and I can believe it from the condition of everything. It has the original in-line 6 cylinder 207 motor. This is a pretty rare year from what I know. They only made around 6K of all models this year (EB). The fenders are perfectly straight and there is hardly any rust
color anywhere on this vehicle. The black paint on the fenders has
started cracking a bit, but still looks great. It has brand new Coaker
tires all the way around, new battery, coil, spark plugs, cap, rotter, and
points to make it run like a top. The carburetor was also cleaned.
It comes with a new set of wires that someone can put in if they like.
Trying to think about the flaws...there are really very very few. One of the brake lights worked when I got it...I replaced the bulbs in both and now they don't work. The headlights work..but I think only on low high beam so they will need to be changed out. There
is a crack in the windshield as well as the drivers side door window. It
is missing three hubcaps....those can be purchased new online, and I can give
you the contact info. It originally did not come with the chevy symbols on the side of the hood. Those came the next year, but were added at some point. They are very classy, but could be removed. It does not have a key, but rather has a on and off switch to bypass the key. Just a small modification that was put in. There is a heater in it, but I don't see any hoses hooked up...that would also be a very easy fix. It comes with the front starter crank bar.
Ken said he used to start it that way....but I really don't know how. It
comes with the original motor and transmission and it runs great. No
smoking. I think its a 4 speed, but I could be mistaken. We are
sorry to see it go, but we have to pay for a home remodel and this is a neat
luxury item that we just can't keep. Please let me know if you have any
questions 208-661-3429 (Call or text). |

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
