This truck was bought new locally and used as a farm truck.It only has 13037 miles on it.That's the real actual mileage.It still has the original build sheet attached to the inner fender on the driver side under the hood.It was ordered with Heavy Duty suspension all around,that's why it sits up high.It's a two wheel drive.The drive line is a 6 cylinder 250 ci one barrel carb.She cranks up and runs good.No smoke-no noises. Transmission is a Heavy Duty fully synchronised 3 speed-column shift that operates like new. The rear is a Heavy Duty 12 bolt either posi track or limited slip.It spins both back tires in gravel..The chassis is excellent,only surface dirt,no rust.The cab has rust in the following-rockers inner and outer- floors- bottom of the doors-bottom of the fenders-over all four tires-the front of the bed.The steering column is in need of bushings etc.,The old truck fires right up and runs and drives good. In fact I had a tag on it for a while. Only drove it local.It came with manual disc brakes-wind shield washer-radio antenna in the windshield-manual steering-dual wide load mirrors. Somebody changed the steering wheel ,and I don't have the original. I bought it to build a Hot Rod but decided to leave it alone after realizing the miles are original. I painted all the rusty places with black paint,so you can see where the rust is.Look at the pics carefully.The radio is also missing.Except for the steering wheel and radio,it is factory stock, even the rims are original.It would make a sharp truck restored back to showroom condition,no doubt about that.Serious bidders only please.Paypal account required.Buyer is responsible for all shipping cost.

Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan

Sat, Dec 6 2014

"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.

Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years

Fri, Feb 21 2014

Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.
