For sale is a 1952 Chevrolet 3100 1/2 ton pickup with a 235 CID motor. When I bought this truck, I was told the motor came out of a 1954 Corvette but I have not checked the numbers to verify that. The truck ran good when it was parked several years ago, but was parked when the radiator developed a leak. The man who owned it then (a certified mechanic - I know him) planned to use that as an opportunity to convert it to a 12 volt, but never got around to it (it is still a 6 volt system), so the truck just sat (garaged) until I talked him into letting me buy it. The only reason I'm selling it, is I have the opportunity to buy a Harley I've wanted forever. It took me many years to get this truck, but opportunity knocks. Overall, the body is really pretty darn straight, with the exception of just a couple of minor areas (please look closely at photos). The floors are solid, cab corners are good, doors are fine...a little bit of rust and body work, but not too bad. Again, check photos. It's just a good solid truck that with some TLC would make a great Cruiser, Lowrider or Ratrod. The tires are fair, the rims behind the hubcaps are chrome, the hubcaps are brand new - I took them out of the box for the photos. Just needs some wide whitewalls to look super cool or old school. Has Fulton sun visor. Brakes are good, steering is tight. Everything looks to be present on the truck except for the breather. Comes with extra chrome grill. The extra grill is not perfect, but it will be included in the sale. The driver's door glass and passenger door glass and quarter glass are cracked...the rest of the glass is good. The seat is not original to the truck, but very good condition with seatbelts and no rips. Has driver's side peep mirror with Kansas Jayhawk sticker. Rock Chalk Jayhawks! As I said, it took me many years to talk my friend into letting me buy this truck, and I finally was able to do that the first of the year, so the title has been applied for (on January 10th) and will be in any day (Kansas has just switched to a new DMV system, so it could be as long as another couple or 3 weeks, or it could be tomorrow). I do have a copy of the registration I can provide to the successful bidder, and the title - if it's not already here by the end of auction, will be forwarded to buyer immediately upon its arrival. Please don't let this give you any pause - just look at my feedback record and know you can be comfortable in my reputation as a longstanding eBay seller. Truck is also for sale locally, so I do reserve the right to end auction early.
Buyer is responsible for arranging for and paying for all costs associated with delivery. I do require a 500 dollar deposit within 48 hours of end of auction, with the balance to be paid within one week of auction's end. If you need more time than that, please contact me prior to bidding so we can make sure we are all on the same page with what is happening.
If you have any questions whatsoever, PLEASE contact Leroy at Seven-Eight-Five - Two-THree-Zero - Four-Nine-Nine-Two prior to bidding. I want you to feel comfortable in what you are bidding on.

I have had a number of people ask me about the reserve. I have it set at 5,000 (less than what I have in it)...so definitely a very fair reserve amount for this awesome truck. No matter what you want to do with this vehicle (ratrod, cruiser, lowrider or to simply restore it) there is a lot of truck here for the money it would take to get it to that point. Also, in the description I mistakenly wrote the seat in the truck has seatbelts. In actuality, the seat has the holes for seatbelts to slip through, but no seatbelts. Thanks for the questions, and keep them coming!
On Feb-01-13 at 11:28:23 PST, seller added the following information:
My best answer to the 'is it running and driveable question' is that, again, it was running condition, but was parked when the radiator developed a leak and the previous owner was going to use that opportunity to switch it to a 12 volt system, but never got around to it. For it to run now, it would need a radiator (a fairly inexpensive replacement piece) and a battery (I did not buy a 6 volt because, I too, would have switched it to 12 volt if I were going to keep it). Something else I thought of, though, is that it does not have an ignition key, so you would probably want to buy a new ignition switch at a parts store (very inexpensive - ten bucks or so). Also...there are two blue pieces you can see in the back of the truck that go on sides that cover the frame above the running boards. Again, keep the questions coming! Thanks!

GM doubles miles open to its Super Cruise technology
Wed, Aug 3 2022DETROIT — General Motors said on Wednesday owners of certain vehicles equipped with its Super Cruise assisted driving system will now be able to use it on 400,000 miles (643,740 km) of North American roads, doubling the current operating area as Tesla and other automakers race to deploy hands-free cruising technology. GM's Super Cruise system, like Tesla's Autopilot system, is a driver assistance system, and does not enable true autonomous driving. Spurred by Tesla's aggressive deployment of Autopilot, and Tesla Chief Executive Elon Musk's promises of a more advanced "Full Self Driving" system, GM, Ford, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz are racing to deploy competing partial automation technology in major markets. At the same time, safety regulators are showing concern that drivers do not understand that Autopilot and similar systems are not designed to take over driving in every circumstance. The GM system's sensors and software allow a motorist to cruise with hands off the wheel on highways that have been mapped in detail. But the driver is expected to stay alert and ready to take over the car. GM uses technology to monitor the driver, and Super Cruise will sound alarms or slow the car to a stop if it detects that a driver is not responding. Starting later this year, GM plans to enable vehicles equipped with Super Cruise and the company's latest vehicle electronic system to operate hands-free on major, undivided highways in the United States and Canada, as well as additional miles of divided, interstate highways. Currently, Super Cruise operates only on interstate, divided highways. The expansion, enabled by wider digital mapping, will allow owners of properly equipped GM vehicles to cruise hands-free on stretches of Route 66 and the Pacific Coast Highway in the U.S. West or the Trans-Canada highway in Western Canada, GM said. Many of the new roads GM has mapped are in rural, heartland states where GM pickup trucks are popular. GM plans to offer Super Cruise as an option on its Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra large pickups later this year. GM has said previously it intends to offer Super Cruise as an option on 22 models by the end of 2023. Depending on the model, Super Cruise costs $2,200 to $2,500 to add as an option.

Sunday Drive: Subaru Ascends up to the hottest market segment in America
Mon, Feb 19 2018Utility vehicles – in other words, crossovers and SUVs – are so hot right now. Two of our top stories from last week revolve around the utilitarian vehicle, but besides their jacked-up, five-door bodystyles, they couldn't be more different. The 2019 Subaru Ascent is headed into an extremely crowded and competitive segment, where it'll have to go up against industry stalwarts like the Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot, not to mention upstart contenders like the Volkswagen Atlas. The Mercedes-AMG G63, on the other hand, has very little competition – there simply aren't very many ultra-luxurious, off-road-ready SUVs in the world vying to attract the dollars of the wellest-to-do customers across these United States. Moving on from crossovers and SUVs, our readers remain attracted to classic front-engine, rear-wheel-drive sportscars. The Toyota Supra's upcoming rebirth earns two places on our list of stories worth highlighting from the week that was; one with leaked information from a Japanese magazine, and another with rumors indicating that maybe we shouldn't be quite so excited. And finally, there's the strange case of the long-lost 2009 Chevy Corvette Z06 that one lucky individual happened to find squirreled away in a storage container with just 720 original miles. A high-horsepower head scratcher if we've ever seen one. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the latest automotive news that's fit to print. 2019 Subaru Ascent vs Honda Pilot vs Toyota Highlander: How they compare on paper 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 set to bare its 577-horsepower heart in Geneva Toyota Supra leaks in Japanese magazine ahead of Geneva debut Toyota Supra to be little more than a rebodied BMW Z4?

Chevy gives Camaro Red, Black Accents for SEMA
Mon, Oct 26 2015Just the other day, Chevy announced a series of modified show cars it's planning to bring to SEMA this year. Now it has revealed full details on what could prove the most enticing among them in the form of a pair of Camaros. These new Red Accent and Black Accent editions are based on the new, sixth-generation 2016 Camaro SS. The former starts out as a Camaro SS convertible, done up in silver with red trim inside and out. It's got a leather interior, custom grille, hash-mark fender graphics, blacked-out bowtie badge, and 20-inch alloys. Even the engine is visually enhanced with a red cover. While it was at it, Chevy also dropped the suspension and fitted a new air intake and Brembo front brakes. Joining it is the Black Accent concept, based on a red Camaro SS coupe. As its name suggests, it's got a blacked-out aero kit, bowtie badge, and fuel cover, along with darkened tailllamps and satin black stripes. It also gets a black leather interior and its own set of 20-inch wheels, along with the aforementioned lowering kit, Brembo front brakes, air intake, and red engine cover. The Accent concepts are designed to showcase the extent of the accessories Chevy is offering for the new Camaro, and will be showcased at SEMA alongside modified versions of the Spark, Trax, Malibu, Colorado, and Sierra. Feel free to scope out the gallery above and the details in the press release below.
