1979 Chevy Cheyenne Pickup Very Straight Truck Must See! on 2040-cars

1979 Chevy Cheyenne long bed. I purchased this truck a few years ago and did not even really need it. It was just so clean for the year and I love old trucks. I already had a truck but thought about painting it, putting in a low compression big block with a few turbos. I have used the truck to move stuff around and made some repairs along the way. I truly could not chop it up it ran so nice. Its not a fast truck, 350 v-8 and is not perfect. But when I tell you it will never ever leave you stranded, I mean it.

I purchased remanufactures rally wheels and center caps for the truck that are in perfect shape ($600 without the tires), put springs and a lowering kit on it ($900). Upgraded the AC, (evaporator, compressor, new lines all new total was around $1200) put a new interior in the truck with a all new carpet, headliner, kick panels, door pockets, and visors ($1300).

Changed the oil a few times since I have owned it. Door rubbers are in pretty good shape, a few of the moldings are not perfect, small rust spot on the hood, only spot on the whole truck.

There is not a lot bad with this truck. My kids (5 and 9 yr olds) can jump up and down on the hood or roof and the metal does not even flex. They truly do not make vehicles like this anymore, even trucks! You can drive this truck down the road at 70 mph and take it anywhere.

We have had a few new vehicles over the past few years and living in Florida the weather obviously gets very hot in the summer, the AC in this truck is better than a new vehicles. Never runs hot on temperature.

Rear main seal leaks a little and every few months I will top off the oil.

In closing this truck has been in our family for the past five or so years and has been a pleasure to own. No obligation whatsoever to buy if you are high bidder and not as described.  

I am new to eBay and am listing as no reserve. Last bid will buy it. I am going to let it run the entire length of the auction.

Feel free to email me with any further questions.

Good luck!

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
