Seldom does an unmolested original 60 year old truck of this outstanding condition become available on the market. This year of Chevrolet truck is the most sought after of the 47-54 GM trucks due to several body and mechanical changes that makes them more appealing and desirable to a truck enthusiast. These changes are as follows to name only a few:
 
The first year for one piece curved windshield.  In 1954, the ever popular and reliable high oil pressure Blue Flame 235 cubic inch six cylinder engine known as the "Cast Iron Wonder" engine was made standard in light duty trucks for the first time in 1954.  Upgraded dash instruments and deluxe interior options, first ever Hydra-Matic automatic transmission was available in the Chevy  truck in 1954 as well. 

A very straight body with minimal rust or body damage.  Has great patina for those who wish to leave it original.  Truck does not run and has set for many years.  Engine is locked up and will not turn over.  This fine example of American truck history belongs to my brother who does not have an Ebay account and I'm listing it for him under my Ebay account.  If you have additional questions, please contact Henry the owner at 1-620-482-4405.

Please remember this is a "PUBLIC AUCTION".  As with all public auctions, the reserve price is not made public.  Due to the interest these trucks generate on Ebay, we want to be fair to all interested parties who wish to bid on this truck. Disclosing the reserve price to those who would ask would be unethical as well as give them an "unfair advantage" over other bidders who wish to bid on it. It also holds down the bids if the reserve is made public. Please just bid what you feel this truck is worth and wait to see if you have won this auction.  What you see in the pictures is what you get, there are no warranties expressed or implied.

If you have negative feedback or feedback less than 25, please contact us prior to bidding so that your bid will not be canceled. Only serious bidders please.  Please remember that your Ebay bid is a legal contract to purchase should you be the high bidder. 

MECHANICAL CONDITION:  Not presently running nor has it ran for several years. Has what looks to be the original long life 235 six cylinder engine with original 4 speed transmission.  Please notice in the pictures the very rare "Stewart Warner" Throttle Governor.  This rare aftermarket option was installed back in the day to limit the speed this truck could be driven and to reduce stress on the engine. This rare aftermarket option gives strong evidence of the easy life this truck appears to have enjoyed.  This along with the excellent condition of the body, it seems this truck was always well cared for and perhaps never abused as many trucks of this era.  Original 16 inch GM steel wheels and bias belted tires of that era. The spare tire looks as though it "could possibly" be the original spare tire that GM supplied, but not guaranteed as the original. Has all five of the original GM deluxe stainless hub caps and hard to find original GM trim rings.  How many trucks this old have the original hub caps and trim rings still in place???

BODY CONDITION: As with any truck of this age, you can expect a few bumps and minor scratches. Truck has what most would say is minor damage for its age and confined mostly to running boards and right cowl dent as the biggest areas of damage ( see pictures ). Over all an excellent body that is 100% complete.  Body alignment is very good. All glass is good with no broken or cracked glass. Was originally the popular factory Juniper green color. Left lower cab corner shows evidence of some rust issues due to a few bubbles in paint (see pictures) as well as the paint has a few bubbles at the bottom of cowl on left side.  Entire floor board area and right cab corner are very solid and free of rust. The bed side panels have limited rust due to dirt collecting over the years in front of the box and not draining properly.  Paper feed sacks on seat in picture is for sun protection to the seat area.  All stainless trim on cab is in good condition with only minor imperfections. Dash is excellent and uncut.  The mileage on the odometer (see picture) is believed to be correct mileage due to the overall condition, but is not guaranteed.  

 TITLE: Good clear and current Oklahoma title and tags. Located in the Western Oklahoma Panhandle.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
