Richardson, Texas, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Chevrolet
Drive Type: Rear wheel
Model: Other Pickups
Mileage: 1
Trim: 1/2 ton
1941 Chevy half ton pickup. No engine or transmission but emergency brake lever is there. This truck was taken apart to build into a hot rod but that was as far as it got. I have taken pictures of most of the pieces to show the condition but I can take more if requested. The truck has one of the straightest bodies, fenders and beds I have ever seen on an unrestored truck like this. It has surface rust all over but the only rust damage is the usual place toward the bottom of the drivers door, one small area on one running board and one rear fender. Alll these are easily repairable. The only other major problem is that the top has some dents that can be repaired easily from the inside. The rest of the sheet metal is nearly perfect and the bed is unbelievable. There are no dents, no rust, no dings in the top rails and the tailgate is in excellent condition. There are no dents in the doors or fenders and even the bed floor crossmembers are not rusted out and bent up. The bed and rails are gone but they can be easily replaced. The seat are still covered with some sort of vinyl and the springs are very useable. The frame is complete and straight and all original suspension is there. Parts missing are inside door handles, gas tank, window regulators, wiper motors hood and windshield crank out mechanism. Windshield frame and hinges are there. Front bumper is in very good condition and not damaged at all. If I were to keep this truck I would be tempted to put modern running gear under it and bolt it back together and clear coat the metal, it is that nice. I can bolt the truck back together for transport if necessary but I feel it is a plus for the new owner to have it like this because it saves a lot of time taking it apart. I can hold the truck for transport for a reasonable time after it is paid for. Sold with bill of sale, NO TITLE! I REPEAT NO TITLE! Ebay makes you list something under title. I can be reached at 972-231-7393 ask for Dave if you want to ask questions or want more pictures. This truck will make somebody a great restoration, street rod or rat rod.

Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
