I am selling this vehicle for my son, so here is his description of the truck.  This truck has been my daily driver for the past 8 years now and has served me well with no major repairs that were needed, only minor maintenance and parts that would need replacing just from normal wear and tear.  This truck was an older older restoration project from about 10 years ago.  It was a body off frame restoration, cab had body work, and the paint is base coat clear coat.  6 ft. bed was a N.O.S. for a 1978, no body work, and frenched taillights in fenders.  Frame and suspention parts were painted.  Shocks and stabilizer, stainless steel brake lines and hoses, brake booster and master cylinder, gas  tank,  4X4 hubs rebuilt,  upper and lower ball joints about 3 years ago.  Tie rod and pitman arm about 3 years ago.  CCA wood planks for the bed with a rubber liner over it.  Rihno liner coated sides and inside tailgate.  windshield, carpet and bench seats were done, but as you can see  seat needs to be redone.  The driver side is torn.  Clutch plate, disc, throwout bearing and fork.  Engine is a 250 straight 6 and only the head was rebuilt.  Trans. is a 4-speed with that super low 1 st. gear.  Trans. and transfer case is in good condition.   I bought it 2 years after it was finished, but like I said it's been outside for 8 years and it's been my daily driver.  Here is a list of parts recently replaced.  Water pump, plugs, wires ,cap, rotor, brake pads and shoes, good used power steering pump, alternator, battery and front axle universal joints.  The engine does leak some oil but runs good.  The body is showing signs of  rust and some rot as shown in the pictures, but still looks real nice when pulled up next to it.  Even though it's a 6 cyl.,  with the 4X4 activated, it's an animal in the snow.  I never got stuck anywhere.  If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer the best that I can.  For more details if needed, you can call my cell at 631-708-4497.  I reserve the right to end auction early, as this truck is also  for sale locally.  Truck is sold as is, no refunds, no returns, so be sure you ask any questions you may have or if possible, look before bidding.  Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick-up and or shipping.  I require a non refundable deposit through paypal of $500.00 within 24 hours of auctions end.  Full payment is required within 7 days of auctions end either by cash upon picking up  truck or a wire transfer to my bank, truck to be released when funds have cleared.

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest

Tue, Jun 16 2015

There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog. Chevrolet Ford Jeep RAM Truck Off-Road Vehicles Car Club USA Videos autoblog black

Former Fisker CEO has some advice for Tesla Motors

Wed, Oct 22 2014

Former Fisker Automotive CEO and ex-Chevrolet Volt vehicle-line director Tony Posawatz has some words of caution for Tesla Motors. The long-time automaker executive questions the California automaker's long-term viability – and gives some praise – in a talk with Benzinga, which you can listen to below. While the all-wheel-drive D that Tesla unveiled earlier this month in Southern California wowed a packed crowd, Posawatz (starting at around minute 4:45 in the interview) says Tesla would've been better off taking the resources it expended toward that Model S upgrade and directed them towards speeding up the development of a more affordable plug-in. Perhaps a number of investors agreed, since the company's stock fell the day after the D was announced. Posawatz says Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of ZEV credits. Posawatz also says that Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of zero-emissions vehicle credits in California for its earnings and questions whether the automaker will ever work at a large enough scale to sufficiently drive down costs and make consistent profits. Tesla CEO Elon Musk would take issue with this characterization. Posawatz first made his mark in the plug-in vehicle world when he was the vehicle-line director at General Motors for the Volt extended-range plug-in from 2006 to 2012. Later that year, he joined extended-range plug-in maker Fisker Automotive as its CEO, though quit that job during the summer of 2013 as the company was descending into insolvency. He joined the Electrification Coalition this past March. News Source: Benzinga Green Chevrolet Fisker Tesla Electric PHEV Tony Posawatz

Is Buick's surprise Detroit concept a Camaro-sized coupe?

Sun, Jan 10 2016

Tomorrow night marks the unofficial start of the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Keep your eyes peeled for a number of reveals, including a surprise debut from Buick. Yes, Buick. And we think it's going to be something really hot. According to a report from Bloomberg, the Tri-Shield's secret car could be a Camaro-sized sport coupe concept. As Bloomberg explains, it'd certainly gel with the impression the company is trying to put out – that it's no longer a brand for those with one foot in the grave. Introducing a sports coupe, even as a concept, could certainly reinforce that message. And if it happens to make production – which is not a certainty, Bloomberg's secret source says – it could certainly help Buick drive its average buyer age down from 59. Bloomberg doesn't offer any speculation on Buick's new coupe, but we have no problem making educated guesses. Our most reliable conjecture is this: it will ride on General Motors' Alpha platform, which underpins both the Camaro and the Cadillac ATS. And with a certain twin-turbocharged V6 in the GM stable, we've got an idea of what kind of engine could be shown. That speculation will have to suffice for now. But don't worry, we'll have official details, live images, and video tomorrow when Buick unveils its new concept in Detroit's Eastern Market.
