This was my fathers truck, he purchased it in Missoula, MT in 1972. It is a heavy duty 3/4 ton that came with 17" factory split rim wheels (they are still on the truck). The original 327 engine busted a valve lifter and busted the block. The block was replaced with a used 305, I believe it still has the 327 heads. The engine runs strong and starts very easily. When it sits for weeks without being started you need to dump a little gas in the air cleaner...so it needs carburetor attention. The transmission and transfer case shift correctly, it does have that classic Chevy whine in 4th gear, but it has been there since dad bought it in 1972. It does cough and run out of power accelerating in 4th gear, I think it's a carburetor or distributor issue. In 1st through 3rd gears it seems to have plenty of power. The engine sounds good, idles great and seems to run strong. The gauges and tachometer work. The tires are miss-matched and in poor condition, but they hold air. The miss matched tires make it hard to get out of 4 wheel drive in these old trucks. I'm not sure if anyone will change tires on the old split rims anymore, but 17 inch rims and tires are popular today (as a kid in the 70's and 80's I recall that tires for the pickup were a hard find). I don't know what model transfer case / gear ratios etcetera. That's all original though. The truck hasn't been driven much in the last 20 years, maybe a couple hundred miles a year around my parents house hauling firewood or some gravel etc. The body is pretty darn straight for it's age. It has the usual rust in the corners of the cab and the driver floor board is rusted through and needs replaced. The tailgate isn't straight. The floor of the bed is solid but not straight, it took a pretty good sized load of gravel to make this heavy duty truck squat. There is a small dent in the left front fender above the tire. The side of the box, just behind the left rear tire is curled under because a wheel came off one time (loose lug nuts). The saddle gas tanks were added when dad bought it, but they haven't been used in the last 20 years, so I'm sure they need a good cleaning etc before being used again. I think the pictures show the condition pretty well. The interior is good, the dash top is weathered and wrinkled from the sun. The seat covers have been on for as long as I can remember, the seat covers are pretty worn, I don't know what the original seat material looks like or what condition it is in. I think this is a good candidate for restoration. It's sharp looking truck, the heavy duty front end / hubs and the 17" tires make it look tough (in my opinion). My plan was to restore it and keep it, but I (maybe my wife) realized that I don't have the time and garage space to do the restoration. So, I was told that I have decided to let it go to someone who is willing to do it justice. I have started the bid pretty reasonable and there is no reserve. The truck is listed locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction. There is no warranty. It's the buyers responsibility for shipping. I will try to help in any way I can. The truck is in Corvallis Montana, it's right next to a state highway so loading onto a trailer etc will be easy. Please don't bid if you have no feedback. Be willing and able to pay. Thanks for looking. |

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident
Fri, Dec 5 2014Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.
