1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne 4x4 Long Bed W/ 16,000 Original Miles on 2040-cars
Pagosa Springs, Colorado, United States
|
Up for Auction is a 1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne K 2500, 3/4 ton 4x4 pick-up with only 16,000 original miles on it. That's right 16,000 not 116,000 miles. I called and confirmed the mileage with the fire department that purchased and owned the truck This truck was ordered as a cab and chassis with no bed by a small Fire Department in Ohio. I have the original build sheet. My understanding is that this truck was used as a vegetation fire fighting truck with a flat bed on it. With a small skid mount pump and tank. Obviously it was not used very much. There is some surface rust on the frame none on the body. I replaced the single exhaust system with a dual exhaust system while retaining the stock exhaust manifolds. It has a stock 350 c.i. engine with a 4 barrel. carb. and the transmission is automatic 350 turbo-hydro-matic. The truck has power steering and power disc brakes from the factory. The dash is wood grained, with a stock in the dash tachometer, and gauges. No idiot lights. I replaced the stock AM radio with a Custom Auto Sound radio with USB, and MP-3 inputs. I also added kick panel speakers, and a new stock center dash speaker. The stock A/M radio goes with the truck also. The seat is in good condition with some stitching starting to break. So I installed an Indian style seat cover with front pouches. I purchased a used bed that was rust free with saddle tanks. The saddle tanks have not yet been installed but go with the truck. I then had any body work that was needed done. The body work was to fill the small holes that the fire department had put in it to mount antennas and a light a bar on the roof. I left the two Unitrol spot lights in place on the "A" pillars. I had the truck repainted the original colors with two stage paint. That way the bed and cab had a perfect match. I can not find any evidence of ever any collision damage. All glass appears to be original w-factory rear sliding window. The 16" steel wheels are original and I put 4 new 10 ply BF Goodrich Commercial tires on them. The spare is a used tire in good condition on a new LMC mag. wheel. I replaced the Alternator and removed the regulator. I installed the needed pigtail to eliminate the regulator. The original Alternator also goes with the truck. This truck spent it's life in a Fire Department Apparatus Garage heated and being wiped down daily. The reason for selling the truck is I have another project waiting to be finished. The truck runs and drives well and is currently registered in Colorado. The buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up in person. A $1000.00 deposit is required. I will not disclose the Reserve Price, so please don't ask. This Truck is a Real Head Turner, it gets attention everywhere I go. Good Luck Bidding!

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
