Plus many other things I can't remember right now!

This is a very solid truck from Georgia, I can find one spot on the floor that was repaired, the rest look very solid. All body mounts look solid, bed floor looks solid.

The truck needs a few things: Horn doesn't work, right turn signal doesn't light on dash, needs a new windshield, I think it should be wet sanded and buffed(my opinion)

 As far as I know that's it!

Actual mileage is unknow, I had to enter something for Ebay.

If your looking for a 100 point show vehicle keep looking, if your looking for a cool truck to cruise around in and take to cruise nights come take a look at this one!

It starts right up every time, the electric choke works great, the truck has a mild cam that will grab some attention idling into the cruise night thanks in part to the dual Flowmasters.

 I'd love to finish the little details but I just don't have time....and like everybody else I have WAAAY to many projects.

The truck comes with a Georgia bill of sale, I can get an Illinois title but it'll take a few weeks.

This vehicle is sold "as is" so PLEASE have it inspected by you or a third party PLEASE!  I have perfect feedback and I want to keep it that way. Your welcome to come see the vehicle and hear it run, if the weather is good we can go for a ride, but it will not leave the garage in the snow or rain , no exceptions.

If you have any questions feel free to call me between 8am & 8pm central time  at 815-674-9080 or I do check my email several times a day.

I'm a car guy, I love these old vehicles and I'd rather keep the truck than have an unhappy buyer, I ate yesterday and I'll eat tomorrow weather the truck sells or not.

I can store the truck in a heated building for a while as long as the truck is paid for, let me know how long before bidding if it'll be more than a couple weeks.

I'll work with your shipper to get it loaded and on the way.

Right now the truck is in my garage at home, if we get any good weather this week it'll be going back to my storage building.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.

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.
