This is a complete 1946 Chevy Panel Truck that I recently purchased from who I believe was the 2nd owner of the truck. He had purchased it in 1964 and drove it until 1978 when he parked it in the shed. His brother removed the coil to use on a tractor and when he went to put it back on he never wired it back up. The coil is still held on by one bolt and the 2 wires are unhooked. The truck was driven to where it was parked but has sat so long that the motor is frozen. I haven't tried to break it loose it may come loose with some work or it may need to be replaced or rebuilt. The truck rolls and steers fine. It is what I believe to be a complete truck there are still three hub caps inside it. The only thing is the rear door handle is apart and lying inside (it may be missing some of the handle pieces I never really checked He had taken it off and put a bolt through the inside so no one could steal whatever he had stored in the back. Also the passenger door handle does not work.  The title is in hand and is the original title from 1964 I think the vin may be 53-935 as this is listed as the SS. number. It does have quite a bit of rust to the quarters and the lower body. I tried to get good pictures so you can see it all. It is a project but it doesn't look to have ever been touched so you can see what your starting with and everything is there. This is for local pickup only. The buyer is responsible for all cost associated with pickup and delivery of this vehicle from 52323. Payment is to be made in full within 7 days of the end of the auction and the vehicle is to be picked up within 10 days unless prior arrangments have been made and the vehicle is paid for in full. I do require a 500.00 deposit immediatly after winning the auction just because there are so many non paying bidders on vehicles any more. If you have any questions or would like more pictures or to see the vehicle prior to bidding let me know. Thanks Mike

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.
