PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, read everything before bidding or emailing questions.  Chances are good that your question in answered somewhere in the following text...

No reserve auction for 1990 Chevy 1/2 Ton 8-foot bed 2-wheel drive pick up truck.  Starts right up without hesitation and runs smooth.  Starts, stops, and shifts through all gears as it should.  Biggest issue is a SIGNIFICANT oil leak at the rear of the pan.  Assume it will need a new pan gasket.  I do not know if oil has gotten on the clutch -- for the sake of this description, you should assume there is oil on the clutch. 

Truck was purchased new by my father in 1990.  He is the only owner and there is a clear Pennsylvania title in his name.  Generally a bare-bones truck;  has a V-6 and 4-speed with overdrive.  No knocks, funny noises or smoke.  Only vehicle options are cruise, AM/FM and air conditioning.  AC does not blow cold.  Truck has a brand new battery.  It will start right up and start, stop, and shift as it should.  Brakes are good; tires are average and will pass Pennsylvania inspection. 

Interior is remarkably good considering the exterior.  Cloth bench seats without any rips or damage.  Rubber factor mats do not have any damage. 

There is a star break in the center of the windshield, as shown in one of the included photos.  Break has not gotten any larger in over five years. 

Paint is poor with surface rust as shown, especially on the roof and at the cab corners.  Dents in both rear quarter panels; minor dents in lower portion of the doors; no other body damage.  Tail gate, grille, and bumpers are all excellent and without damage.  Truck has never been in any collisions that required replacement of any body panels. 

Excellent condition tool box and bed liner included with auction. 

Truck should not be driven far until oil leak is repaired. 

My very reasonable terms of sale:

$200 deposit due within 48-hours from the end of the auction.  REALLY!! That means you need to be able to transfer $200 into my Paypal account within 2 days from the end of the auction.  If I don't get the $200 deposit, I'll presume you are not serious about the purchase, and I will relist the truck.  Fair??  Balance due in cash at the time the vehicle is picked up.  I would like the truck gone by July 31 -- I am not available 8/1 to assist with the transfer.  Buyer responsible for all fees associated with transfer of truck to the new owner.  If you are a Pennsylvania resident, please ensure you are prepared to transfer the vehicle to your name on the day of purchase. Unless you know someone personally, there are very few title and tag stores open on Sunday in Pennsylvania.  

Please email with any questions.  I have ABSOLUTE NO INTEREST IN ANY TRADES related to the transfer of the truck.  I'm not looking for any other cars, trucks, motorcycles, ATVs, guns, or drugs.  Truck needs to be paid for in CASH.  ABSOLUTELY no personal checks.  If you are interested in buying this vehicle, please ensure you HAVE ALL THE MONEY AVAILABLE before you bid or use buy-it-now.  I'm exceedingly easy to deal with, but one thing that really gets me pissed off is hearing eleventh-hour excuses that revolve around, "I'll have the rest of the money on the second Tuesday of next week after I get paid or win the lottery or get my settlement or sell my other car....etc".   You either have the money or you don't.  PERIOD!!  If necessary, ask your wife, husband, mother or father BEFORE YOU BID.  Also ensure you have a plan for getting the vehicle home.  Whereas I will state the truck will start, stop and drive reasonably short distances, be aware of the SIGNIFICANT oil leak I have noted.  I would not personally drive this truck far until the leak is fixed.

Sold as-is where-is.  No warranty expressed or implied.  Contact me in advance of the end of the auction and you may view and inspect the vehicle.  As the insurance has expired, there will be no test drives. 

Truck is located in Easton, Pennsylvania 18045.  It is approximately 3 miles from the intersection of  Routes 78 and 33.  If you do not know exactly where this is, Google it!!

Please email with questions and thanks for reading everything.  No reserve auction; high bid wins!

GM patent reveals new two-stage turbocharger

Fri, Jun 24 2016

Modern turbochargers may be some of the best ever made, but performance is something that engineers are always trying to improve. According to GM Inside News, General Motors (GM) is hoping to alleviate some of the negative aspects of a two-stage turbocharger setup with a newly-patented design. The patent, that was filed on May 19, 2016, reveals a clever bypass system that allows the engine, a four-cylinder unit, to optimize both the low-pressure and high-pressure inlets for its respective functions. According to the filing, a conventional two-stage turbocharger setup is engineered to allow both turbines to operate simultaneously at low and mid engine speeds. At high engine speeds, only the low-pressure turbine works. The setup can't isolate either the low or high pressure side, which can impair low-end performance. GM's new two-stage turbocharger setup looks to eliminate this by linking the high-pressure turbo to the exhaust manifold through the high-pressure inlet duct. The low-pressure turbo is attached to the high-pressure turbo by a low-pressure inlet duct, which is linked to a connecting channel. A single actuator that is housed in the exhaust manifold creates a bypass that can opens the high-pressure inlet or close the connecting channel. Depending on what the engine load and speed is, the ECU guides the actuator—a single rotating spindle with discs corresponding to flanges on the high and low pressure sides—to isolate one of the two turbos. Isolating the turbos allow the respective inlets to be engineered for the best possible fluid dynamic performance. The setup should increase performance and decrease lag. There's no word on what car this setup will make an appearance on, but it will most likely be used in premium vehicles before trickling down to the rest of GM's vehicles.

The Corvette Museum sinkhole has been filled

Wed, Feb 11 2015

After swallowing eight of the most prized pieces of the collection from the National Corvette Museum, the massive sinkhole from a year ago is rapidly becoming nothing but a bad memory. Based on the museum's weekly construction update, you can barely see the remnants of the 25-foot deep hole once in the floor. The Corvette Museum's Skydome was not always going to look like this. The original hope was to keep the sinkhole there as a tourist attraction. That plan eventually fell through, though, and instead it was decided five of the less-damaged Corvettes would remain unrestored. Progress has been moving fast to get the repairs done. Even a month ago, the hole was still very visible, and the construction company used remote-controlled Bobcat loaders to fill it in. Now, the museum has launched a contest to guess how many tons of stone it took to fill in the massive crater. The winner gets a print of the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil being lifted out.

UAW rejects GM contract proposal but makes a counter offer

Tue, Oct 1 2019

The United Auto Workers union said a new comprehensive offer made by General Motors Co late Monday to end a two-week-old strike was not acceptable and said it had made a new counterproposal. UAW vice president Terry Dittes said in a letter to members "there are many important issues that remain unresolved." The union is awaiting GM's next proposal. He said GM's offer came up short on many issues.  Dittes said GM made a "comprehensive proposal" at 9:40 p.m. Monday. "This proposal that the company provided to us on day 15 of the strike did not satisfy your contract demands or needs. There were many areas that came up short like health care, wages, temporary employees, skilled trades and job security to name a few." Dittes is the union's vice president for GM relations and the UAW's lead negotiator in these contract talks. "We have responded today with a counterproposal and are awaiting GM's next proposal to the union," he wrote. "Regardless of what is publicized in print or social media, etc., there are still many important issues that remain unresolved." The strike, in its third week, has cost GM more than $1 billion, according to J.P. Morgan analyst Ryan Brickman. He said the cost per day in potential profit is $82 million. However, another analysis, by East Lansing-based consultant Anderson Economic Group, put the losses at $25 million a day. And the effects of the strike are expanding. GM said Tuesday the strike has created a parts shortage that forced the automaker to halt production at its pickup and transmission plants in Silao, Mexico, temporarily laying off 6,000 workers. Silao is where GM builds its highly profitable four-door crew cab Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups. The strike has also forced GM to idle some Canadian workers, and many suppliers have been forced to halt operations. About 48,000 UAW members went on strike on Sept. 16 seeking higher pay, greater job security, a bigger share of the leading U.S. automaker’s profit and protection of their healthcare.Â
