Carman, Illinois, United States

 Up for bid at no reserve is a 1972 Chevy k20 pickup 3/4 ton 4x4. This is a clean 1 owner Washington state truck, I am the second owner and it has 93,300 original miles. Its equipped with a fuel injected 350 engine and a 4 speed manual. This truck has had 1 repaint in the original medium blue and looks good overall.

There are lots of maintenance records with this truck and show it has been maintained very well . The engine was rebuilt in 1998 during this build the original owner added later model center bolt heads and an Edelbrock pro-flow fuel injection system, all the records for this are included. This was a high dollar system. It runs and drivers very good. Has power steering and power disc brakes and dual exhaust.

The body is very straight. This truck has the rare factory cab lights on the roof. There is some rust on the rockers and a bit in the cab corners, and under the battery tray, but this is the first time it has rusted and has never been patched. Everywhere else is rust free including cab mounts, floor boards, the upper cowl, and bed. There is a small spot of paint on the roof that has flaked off but is not rusted through. The bed has a line-x sprayed in bed liner and looks good.

The axles are the original disc brake Dana 44 front with the hard to find blue dial Spicer hubs in good condition and the Eaton rear with the gear driven np205 transfer case. The wheels and tires are brand new with less that 100mi. on them. The wheels are Wheel Vintiques 16x8 o.e. style steel that will accept factory hubcaps and the tires are 305/70R16 Toyo Open Country M/T. The wheels are black powder coat now but you could paint them any color you want.

The interior is in decent shape, has a later model Toyota seat, and a newer style cd player in it but is original besides that. The dome light and backup up lights still work as they should and still has the spare tire under it. The only thing I can think of that doesn't work is the gas gauge. If you have any questions please call Bob at 319-759-8229 before 7pm central.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
