1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne C20 on 2040-cars
Blue Bell, Pennsylvania, United States
1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne 20 Series Pickup It
has its period correct GM 350 V8 engine (manufactured Aug 2001), mated
to a properly functioning column shift automatic transmission. We have
driven this truck around locally for some light hauling. It runs very
well and is 100% mechanically roadworthy-NO overheating, NO starting
issues, NO transmission issues, just a slight puff of smoke under heavy
acceleration. It is a great restoration
candidate because it is "All There". Look closely at the photos, nearly
all of the exterior moldings are attached, and intact. The interior,
with its original metal dashboard, has all of its original gauges-only
the temp and fuel gauges don't function. The seat needs to be
reupholstered, however the original headliner and dash pad are in very
nice, unblemished condition. Most important is
that the floors and frame have been remarkably well preserved. They are
perfectly serviceable and safe, and are showing only slight surface
corrosion that would be expected on any original vehicle of this age. The
bed is in very nice condition, except for a few minor rust areas near
the tailgate (see Photos). The original bumper, grill and headlight
buckets are all in very nice condition. The only other exterior
concerns that bear mention are some rust in the inner fender wells at
their bottoms near the radiator support, and the cab corner is rusted
through on the passenger side. Please look at
the photos closely and it will be evident that this is NOT a basket
case. With a little bit of effort, this truck could very easily be
transformed into a safe, roadworthy driver. Truck shows 92,475 on the odometer, however, title was processed in error with 97.455 miles ...... due to age of vehicle, truck is being sold mileage except. We are a pre-owed car dealership located at 1601 Swede Street in Blue Bell Pennsylvania, 19422, just minutes off the Pennsylvania Turnpike exit 333, outside of Philadelphia. Our hours are Monday thru Thursday 9am to 8pm EST, Friday 9am to 5pm EST, and Saturday 9:30am to 4pm EST. Any questions please call 610-272-0200. |

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
