1972 Chevy originally from Arizona. Started with a rust-free frame and underbody. Was taken right down to the frame for restoration (last photo). More than $30,000 invested. Reserve is MUCH lower.


All body work was professionally done and is impeccable. Cab was removed and lined with bedliner both inside and underneath before painting. All body parts were removed, sandblasted, professionally restored (no bondo), primed and painted. The color is flat charcoal metallic. Bumpers and grill are flat black.

A partial list of all of the new items that went into the restore – new inner fenders, new doors, new rockers all welded in place, new OEM vintage tailgate ($600), new tilt steering column from IDIDIT, new steering wheel, all new wiring from Painless – nearly all of it running through split loom conduit, new LED lights all around, gauge cluster was restored, new Lokar automatic shifter, new wheels, brand new GoodYear Duratrac 33" tires, new bed wood and rails, all new gaskets and seals in doors and windows, new door exterior door handles and locks, new ignition, new pedals, new tailgate chains, new interior vents, new ductwork, new armrests, new carpet, new Flowmaster true dual exhaust, new Skyjacker 4" lift and shocks, new braided steering lines, new brake lines, power leather seats from a modern GTO (yes, they work), new gas tank, new sending unit, new battery, new radiator core support, new billet aluminum grill, new grill/headlight surround, new front bumper. All bolts were removed and replaced with either Grade VIII or 304 Stainless when possible. Nearly $400 spent in bolts alone. I'm sure there is more...

The engine is a top-end rebuilt 350 with an aggressive cam. The Holley 650 carburetor and intake manifold are brand new, new valve covers, new starter, new heater core. T350 transmission was professionally rebuilt with a 2200-2500 RPM stall torque converter. Original NP205 transfer case with working four wheel drive.

This truck is 98% done. Here is what is not completed. One of the brand new window gaskets in the passenger door got caught and ripped. A set of new ones is included - you only need one. Passenger door panel is not installed (to repair the gasket). The shift boots are not screwed down. Some body panels could use some professional adjusting to line up a little better. The rear view mirror is not hung. The glove box door latch is not lining up right and is not installed. The engine could still use some tuning. It runs strong, but is very cold-blooded. There is a transmission leak that I'm pretty sure is coming from the speedometer cable. I did not hook up a washer fluid reservoir, the pump is in place with new lines. Lastly, something is taking a light draw on the battery and it causes the battery to die after 3-4 days if not run or charged. I believe it's an amp (new) installed to run an iPod through a customer speaker enclosure/center console I built.

Everything works on this truck as it should. It is beautiful truck and with a little more TLC could cross an auction line for well over $30,000. I have many vintage 4x4s and this one is going to make room. If you have any questions I am available for calls (e-mail for the number) and the truck can be driven and seen in Three Lakes, Wisconsin. Can deliver to Iola in July or within 250 miles of Three Lakes, Wisconsin. This would include both the Minneapolis and Milwaukee areas. Bid with confidence. Clear Wisconsin title in hand.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
