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!

Here's why automakers roll out those Texas-themed pickup trucks

Thu, Sep 29 2016

Every year, automakers with a full-size truck link make a big show of the Texas State Fair, usually involving a reveal of a new model. Sometimes they show a whole new truck, and other times a special edition centered on the Lone Star state. While some people might write this off as a quirk of the industry, others might be wondering, "What's the big deal with Texas?" As it turns out, part of the big deal with Texas is big truck sales. According to Dave Sullivan, product analysis manager at AutoPacific, Texas buys more trucks than any other state in the country. It's not a small margin either. Edmunds.com, one in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. The state also accounts for 15 percent of the country's large truck sales, which is more than twice that of California, the second largest truck market in America. Even when you break down sales only in Texas, trucks are a huge piece of the pie - Sullivan says that a quarter of new vehicle sales in Texas are trucks. One in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. But it's not just sales that make truck builders give attention to Texas. As Sullivan explained, "Pickups are life in Texas." Both he and Hugh Milne, marketing and advertising manager for the Chevy Silverado line, said that trucks are key fixtures in Texas society, as both work trucks and luxury vehicles (or Texas Cadillacs as Milne called them). Milne said Texas is so important in the truck market that if you want to be successful in the rest of the country, "you've got to be successful in Texas." As for the State Fair, it has become a prime location for reveals in part because of the importance of the Texas market and because of how big the fair is. Milne also revealed that the State Fair also hosts its own auto show, so it's an ideal venue for a vehicle introduction. So there you have it. Why do truck builders obsess over Texas? It's because Texas obsesses over trucks. When you have one market that loves your product that much, you give it the attention it deserves.

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Chevrolet Sprint Plus

Fri, Jun 16 2023

General Motors sold second- and third-generation Suzuki Cultuses with Geo or Chevrolet Metro badging in the United States from 1989 through 2001 model years, and we've all seen plenty of those cars on the street over the years. The first-generation Cultus was sold here as well, with Chevrolet Sprint badges, and I've found a rare example of the Sprint five-door hatchback in a Northern California car graveyard. The Chevy Sprint first appeared on the West Coast as a 1985 model, then became available everywhere in the United States for the 1986 through 1988 model years (in Canada, it was sold as the Pontiac Firefly). It was available here as a hatchback with three or five doors; for 1986 only, the five-door was badged as the Sprint Plus. Soon enough, The General would be selling many more Asian-built cars with Detroit badges here. Isuzu I-Marks were sold as Chevrolet/Geo Spectrums starting in the 1986 model year, while Daewoo provided the Pontiac LeMans two years later. Under the hood, a 1.0-liter three-cylinder rated at 48 horsepower. The five-door Sprint cost $5,580 in 1986, which was $200 more than the three-door (those prices would be $15,445 and $14,891 in 2023 dollars). I've documented seven discarded Sprints prior to this one (including an extremely rare Turbo Sprint), and all of them were three-doors; we can assume that price was the most important factor for Sprint buyers. Gasoline prices were crashing hard during the middle 1980s, but memories of gas lines and odd-even-day fuel rationing from 1979 remained strong. What cars competed with the '86 Sprint on sticker price? Well, there was no way to undercut the hilariously affordable (and terrible) Yugo GV, which cost $3,990. The much bigger (but still pretty bad) Hyundai Excel listed at $4,995, while Toyota would sell you a sturdy (but zero-fun) Tercel starting at $5,448. Even the wretched Chevy Chevette — yes, it was still available in 1986 — cost $5,645. The original buyer of this car was willing to shell out an extra $395 to get an automatic instead of the base five-speed manual. That's about $1,093 in today's money. This car must have been slow. By the end, the doors were held shut with duct tape, but it still stayed alive until age 37. 53 miles per gallon on the highway! It does everything. The camels of the highway.
