1963 Shortbed Original 283 V8 3 Spd Blue And White Fleetside Original Patina on 2040-cars
|
Up for bid is an ALL ORIGINAL 1963 shortbed Chevy Pickup. This truck is an original survivor that I purchased from the 2nd owner, who only had it about 1.5 years. This truck was purchased new in 1963 from Harvey's Chevrolet in Radford, Va. The truck has been in Va since it was purchased new. I have fixed and replaced many of the mechanical pieces on this truck so it could once see life on the road again.
NEW Parts include:
This truck sat in a garage for 19 years after the original owner passed until the family sold it to the gentleman I purchased it from. The motor, transmission, and rearend are original to the truck. The wood in the bed is original and is still solid! I have the original springs and also the other 3 original steel wheels that go with the truck. Interior is original including the fuel tank, that was very clean! This truck runs very good and I have driven it to several car shows over 200 miles from my house. The paint is also original, with some older touch up repairs. As with all original 51 year old vehicles, it does have a few issues. Front lower fenders on both sides were repaired years ago and the bondo is cracking. Truck had an old repair in the rockers at some time during its life. One cab brace on passenger side is rusted and should be replaced. Original seat is torn. Rubber floor mat has a small tear (it is original). Front bumper is bent very little. Turn signal switch needs replacing. Heater core is bad and will need replaced, it is the deluxe heater. Heater control knobs are broken. Engine ticks a little when cold, but goes away when engine warms up. Speedometer does not work correctly. This truck is a very good truck for a full restoration, or continue to drive and enjoy it like it is. Truck has no warranties implied or expressed and will be sold AS IS, where is. $1000 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of auction close and truck will need to be picked up within 7 days of auction end, unless other arrangements are made with me. The remainder of payment will be cash and the truck or title will not leave my possession until all money is paid in full. Any delivery fees will be at the cost of the new buyer. |

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
