I have a very nice, above average 1968 Chevy pick-up listed for auction. This truck has had literally thousands of dollars and countless man hours spent on the resto-mod restoration of this truck. I call it restomod, because it is not 100% original. It has new black paint with every piece of new chrome on it, new emblems, wipers, new bed floor, wheel tubs, cowl induction hood, custom seat cover, door panels, visors, glovebox, gauges, carpet, window cranks, door handles, dash pad, lighter, alternator, brake lines, wheel cylinders, shoes, window felts, both inner and outer, glass run, weatherstrip, windshield, inspection.......the list goes on and on.... All the lights work, heat and defrost work also. The truck has a .030 over 350, flat top pistons, "double hump" 300 h.p. heads, aluminum intake, holley carb, hei distributor, headers, flowmasters that have about 12,000 miles on them. It does not smoke or rattle at all and runs great with no problems. I drive the truck regularly, so the mileage will change. It has an aluminum case, 3-speed manual floor shift transmission that shifts smooth and quiet with no problems. The truck is geared low, I would guess at least 3:73 or maybe lower. It does not have a positive traction rear end, if you gas it hard it will break loose spinning with 1 tire only. The truck is smooth on the road, drives good, runs good and looks good. I would not be afraid to start anywhere on this truck. I have a set of old school round bed rails, vent visors, tail-gate guard, unity spot light and cowl vent that is already cut and painted that will go with the truck also. I don't think you can find a nicer, more dependable truck for the reserve that is on this one. I will be glad to answer any questions that you may have. My feedback score reflects that I operate with honesty and integrity and I want to keep it that way. I have owned this truck for awhile and driven it regularly. I know it is in good condition and ready to go with no known problems at all. I reserve the right to end the auction early. The truck is for sale locally. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
On Nov-20-13 at 11:25:49 PST, seller added the following information: The truck has 15X10 corvette style rally wheels all the way around with 275x60x15 T/A Radials. It has the old style "police" center caps with wide wheel bands. The tires have 50 to 60% tread left on them. |

Which of these five plug-ins should win the 2017 Green Car of the Year?
Tue, Nov 8 2016It's going to be a competitive race for the 2017 Green Car Of The Year. With a minivan in the running for the first time in ages, the five finalists announced by Green Car Journal today include five very different plug-in vehicles. As Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, said in a statement, "electrification is now considered by most automakers an essential technology for current and future high-efficiency models." Let's check out the list: Toyota Prius Prime, the updated plug-in version of the world's best-selling hybrid. Chevy Bolt, GM's all-new entry into the long-range EV game. Chrysler Pacifica, a family hauler with the ability to go 30 miles on electric power. Kia Optima. The nomination is for the full line-up, but really the hybrid and plug-in hybrid models are the green stars here. BMW 330e iPerformance, one of the automaker's many new plug-in hybrids that bring battery power to models outside the i sub-brand. Green Car Journal will announce the winners at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17th, along with some, "other green transportation announcements," whatever that means. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt, the first model to snatch up two wins. Which do you think should win this year?

Ford GT dominates Le Mans qualifying, gets slapped with performance adjustment
Fri, Jun 17 2016Fifty years after Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon drove the Ford GT40 to victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ford is poised for a historic return to the Circuit de la Sarthe. The new Ford GT took the top two qualifying positions in the LMGTE Pro class, and four of the top five. Ferrari's 488 filled in the rest of the spots in the top seven, the first two from AF Corse. In other words, we're primed for a reboot of the classic Ford-Ferrari feud at this year's race. Or not, as the ACO, which organizes the 24 Hours of Le Mans, announced sweeping pre-race Balance of Performance (BOP) adjustments this morning that make this year's GT class anybody's race. In LMP1, last year's overall winner Porsche locked up the top two spots with the 919 Hybrid and will lead the entire field at race start. Toyota's two-car factory effort followed with qualifying times 1.004 and 2.170 seconds behind the pole lap. Audi rounds out the manufacturer-backed LMP1 class in fifth and sixth. Full qualifying results can be found here. The storyline for the GT cars is perfect - some say too perfect. Ford's class-leading times came after BOP adjustment to the Corvette Racing C7.R before qualifying. BOP is intended to level the playing field in the class by adjusting power, ballast, and fuel capacity. (Check out this explainer video for more, or even just if you love French accents.) But the process is riddled with unknowns and ripe for accusations of sandbagging. That is, if the Ford cars were intentionally slow in practice they could hope for BOP adjustment to improve their race chances. On the Corvette side, last year's GTE Pro winner went from the top of the field to the bottom, barely improving from practice to qualifying. If you think Le Mans is as rigged at the NBA Playoffs, well, it's not that simple. Because if Ford and Ferrari held back until qualifying - the eighth-place Porsche 911 RSR is three-and-a-half seconds off the class pole time - it was a pretty dumb strategy. This morning, the ACO tried to put things back in order by limiting the boost in the Ford GT's twin-turbo V6 and adding 11 pounds of ballast. Ferrari was also given extra weight but allowed more fuel capacity. The Corvette and Aston Martin teams were both given breaks on their air restrictors, which will allow their engines to make more power. Both Ford and Porsche also received extra fuel capacity.
2016 Chevy Volt will not need premium gas
Wed, Oct 29 2014Buried in the new technical details of the 2016 Chevy Volt released yesterday was a throwaway line about a small but important change that's due to the new 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine. The first-gen Volt has always required premium gas but the new powerplant will be happy burning plain old regular. The Volt's chief engineer, Andrew Farah, told AutoblogGreen that the change was due to today's Volt owners explaining they were not happy paying for top-shelf petroleum. "The ability to use regular unleaded was based directly on customer feedback," he said. "Since the range extender is an all-new engine, it was optimized to use regular unleaded at the outset. Using regular fuel will not have effect on vehicle acceleration or other performance factors." As Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification, told AutoblogGreen yesterday, the new engine is more powerful and quieter than the outgoing 1.4-liter engine that's used in the current Volt. Fuel economy and EV range specs for the next-gen Volt are not expected until the full car is revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
