1962 Chevy Rampside Pickup-52 Yr. Old Patina- Barn Find

Up for sale is a very rare, 1962 Chevrolet Corvair 95 Rampside pickup truck aka "FC" (Forward Control)-Flat 6 cylinder /3 spd. manual /145 CID) This vehicle was acquired from the original owner this year and was revived to its current running and driving condition. It has a clear NJ title and is registered as a 2014 historic vehicle (QQ) in NJ. The truck comes in a very rare and original color combination -White with Omaha orange stripe (the original paint). The interior is a gold and white painted cab with orange vinyl and printed fabric seats also original. This truck lived and worked in Northern NJ most it's life as a roofing contractor workhorse and was parked back in the mid 90's. Only 4,100 units were made in 1962 and there are none left to speak of in this original condition. Barn Find-Original. Any Rampside especially in New Jersey, has been modified or molested in some way or repainted. Not this one. This one is in a time warp! Look at the photos!

It was originally purchased at H.O.B. Motors in Plainfield, NJ. and the dealer logo is still mostly in tact on the rear panel. It has 60,000 +/- original miles on the odometer. The engine was rebuilt by the original owner at 55,000 miles. It runs, stops, and drives very well for its age. There are Bias Ply tires on the rear wheels and radials up front for easier handling. It has an amazing 52 year old color patina. The dash is radio delete but has a ash tray and glove box as the options. The heat works, the wipers work, the lights work, even the cigarette lighter works! The frame is very solid. It is a tank. The FC Rampside was just tuned up and has new brakes and brake lines all the way around. The gas tank was removed, chemically cleaned and washed and re-installed. All glass is good with no cracks. This vehicle has rust. Specifically, the door rockers/steps on both sides need to be replaced and the driver's side bed rocker needs to be replaced. The floors are solid with the exception of the areas adjacent to the rockers but nothing major. The bed is very solid with only surface rust. No holes. Doors are good and fit and latch properly. Has some dings in the bumpers but chrome is decent.

Here are some things that will need attention for the prospective buyer.

Driver and passenger side floor patches are required
Driver and passenger side dog leg rocker/steps need to be replaced. I have replacement dogleg rockers in hand
Driver side bed rocker panel needs replacement - I have the panels in hand
The carburetors need a rebuild and adjustments to run optimally
It needs new tires all the way around
It needs window felts as the windows shake in the frame
It needs shocks al the way around
It needs door weather strips once doglegs are replaced
The windshield rubber is all there should be replaced as its dry
The bench seat needs to be re-upholstered

This truck can be driven as a daily driver or lowered, slammed, bagged, as a rat rod or completely restored. It is the perfect candidate as it is unmolested. You never see these trucks anywhere. Yes...you see the Ford Econoline pickups and the Dodge A-100's but it is very rare to see the Chevy Rampside from that era. It was only made from 1961-65 and each year the production numbers dwindled down. If you want to turn heads this truck is all you need. I have tried to describe this vehicle as accurately as possible based on the prior owner information, my inspection, and an auto technician's feedback. It is not perfect by any means but its a true running survivor! Drive it home.

Make an offer. I might say yes!

'Baby Driver' is a car chase movie set to music

Mon, Mar 13 2017

The Fate of the Furious is certainly the 6,000-pound SUV in the garage of automotive movies, but that doesn't mean gearheads are starved for options. The upcoming film Baby Driver looks to be a winner for car guys, featuring exciting chases with cars including a "hawk-eye" Impreza WRX, a Dodge Challenger, and a 1980s Chevy Caprice. The movie is written and directed by Edgar Wright, whom you may know as the man behind movies such as Sean of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. And based on the two trailers released so far, seen above and below, it's about a young man by the name of Baby, who is a getaway driver for criminals. He's apparently the best in the business, and the secret to his success is the music he listens to while he's driving. He also wants out, but his boss, played by Kevin Spacey, has no intention of letting him go. Spacey is one of a number of major stars in the film, including Jamie Foxx and John Hamm. The driving action shown in the trailers definitely looks entertaining. The WRX is seen doing an array of drifts and J-turns. There is some driving precision on display here that wouldn't be out of place in a Gymkhana video. And it looks like Wright's attention to detail in his shots and transitions, as well as some solid comedy relief, are all going to be present. The film comes out this August.

Chevy Express, GMC Savanna reportedly ending production for 2025

Sat, Jul 2 2022

The oldest commercial vans on the market may only have a few years left, according to a report from Autoweek. The news outlet cited a "competitive analysis source" in saying that the Chevy Express and GMC Savanna commercial vans would be discontinued after the 2025 model year. They would then be replaced by a new electric van, likely Ultium-platform based, for the 2026 model year. We reached out to GM for comment, and this is the official statement sent to us: "We have said in the past that as part of GM’s larger EV acceleration plans that we will add two new vehicles to our commercial portfolio. The first is a full-sized battery electric cargo van and the second is a medium-duty truck that will put both Ultium and our Hydrotec hydrogen fuel cell technology to work. We have not disclosed timing, names or shared any other details, so any articles reporting more are purely speculative." The GM vans are mighty old, having been introduced for the 1996 model year. They've barely changed since then, having received just some facelifts and updated powertrains over the years. And with GM's electrification plans, we're not surprised that these vans will be on the way out. We do have some disagreement about the reported timeline for replacement, though. We suspect that the upcoming electric vans will overlap with the old vans for at least a year. The reason being that there are a lot of these vans on the road, and there are a lot of pieces of equipment that fit them. Box vans, buses and more have components that have been designed for the Express and Savanna. If you're a fleet that has invested in these components, you might not be ready to shift over to a whole new platform. So GM will probably want to give fleet buyers one last opportunity to replace any old vans before committing entirely to a new electric van platform. It will also be interesting to see what kind of market the GM electric vans enter. Ford already has its electric Transit on the way, and Stellantis will be launching the Ram ProMaster electric van next year. Those are both based on existing gas-powered vans. And GM itself has already delivered the first of its larger BrightDrop EV600 electric vans to FedEx. The coming GM vans will likely be new platforms, which could give them performance and range advantages, though the Ford and Stellantis vans will have the advantage of being compatible with equipment for the gas variants.

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest

Tue, Jun 16 2015

There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.
