1972 Chevy 4x4 Pickup on 2040-cars
Beloit, Wisconsin, United States
|
1972 Chevy truck this truck started life as a two wheel drive out east and then Alaska. I purchased this truck in 2004 along with a 3/4 ton 4x4 suburban. I put the pickup on the 4x4 suburban chassis and up graded the axles to a front Dana 44 and a rear full floating corporate 14 bolt. I up graded transmission to a turbo 400 and the transfer case I opted to use a 208 for durability and weight. I installed a 4 inch lift kit with extra heavy front spring because I was going to install a plow. I own a small custom shop and welded in panels were needed and painted it base coat clear very nice appealing color and terrific body work removing dents and all. This is not a "bondo" buggy I purchased clean doors and fenders and painted them but as with brand new vehicles there is some filler used in smoothing metal work. Truck has radio delete and the only gauge that works is oil pressure gauge the others I didn't hook up because I was going to put gauge pods on the hood. The motor is a 1969 corvette 350 motor " if need be ill verify this since it was my corvette it came from" I had all the machine work done at a local engine builder. The heads are 67 cc chamber heads with 202 intake valves "the good ones" motor was then painted to match the truck. Bed has spray in bed liner and a rubber mat. new front bumper and I have a brand new rear bumper that goes with the truck i just never put it on because I haven't purchased the brackets.New brakes, carburetor, and billet distributor. This thing runs and looks beautiful.
OK now the negative! This truck sat in storage since it was built in 2004 I just started driving it in august the windshield was cracked in storage, tailgate lost, in storage,it needs new rubber mat or carpet, seat needs to be recovered, gauges need to be hooked up and tailgate and bumper installed. It also has a leaky front transmission seal do to not being driven it dried out I think it could also use a new rear main seal because im sure this dried out from sitting too. All and all its a great dependable truck 4x4 works as it should starts and runs beautifully and is a real looker. I built this as a company truck to advertise my shop but built a suburban also and this just sat I now have too much other irons in the fire and need to get rid of some toys so good luck with the bidding and let me know if you have questions. I have many more pictures ps yes that is a hole on the cab mount but the side structure was replaced. ______________Oh I almost forgot I have the original bill of sale and the protecto- plate for the truck also.___________________________ |

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
