You are bidding on a beautiful, RUST FREE 1976 Chevrolet K-20, 3/4 Ton 4X4. It has a strong running 350 with a Turbo 350 Transmission. It has the heavy duty, cast iron transfer case and after market manual lockout hubs. I believe it has 4:11 gears.
The previous owner performed a frame off restoration in his own garage a few years ago.
To be completely honest, I don't know what all was done except this:
***It appears as though cab and bed are NOT original to the truck
***Suspension was upgraded w/ BDS components including a 2-3" lift
***Hide-Away Gooseneck hitch was added
***After market wheels w/ 33x12.50x16.5 All-terrain tire (still @ 75%)
***New Paint (There are a couple runs & chips here and there fro normal use)
***New exhaust
***Brakes rebuilt w/ heavy duty parts
***Engine was rebuilt by local machine shop
***seat was professionally recovered
***DeeZee nerf bars added
Here are the things that I have done or had done since buying the truck:
***Added heavy duty hitch
***Carburetor cleaned
***New Fuel Pump
***New Alternator
***New Distributor
***Added auto-meter Gauges and Tach
***Note: Drivers side nerf bar has been removed in order to install fuel tank. This has NOT been completed yet. All parts will go with buyer for completion.
Here is what I know about the engine
***less than 5000 miles on rebuild
***No Leaks
***Doesn't burn oil
***Mild Cam
***Edelbrock intake & carb w/ electric choke
Overall Assessment:
The body is solid-no rust through anywhere! The paint is by no means perfect. There are a couple runs & chips here and there fro normal use. The tailgate works as if brand new. There are a couple small cracks in the dash where the speaker is, otherwise in good shape.
Note: Drivers side nerf bar has been removed in order to install fuel tank. This has NOT been completed yet. All parts will go with buyer for completion.
***NOTE: I WILL BE KEEPING THE DIAMOND TREAD TOOL BOX SEEN IN THE PICTURES.
The truck runs great and I hate to see it go...but I am purchasing some thing newer with A/C because I pull trailer loads of hay in the summer and really miss Air!

Truck is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end auction at any time.

GM says over 40% of new China launches in next five years will be EVs
Wed, Aug 19 2020SHANGHAI — General Motors is planning an electric car offensive in China with more than 40% of its new launches in the country over the next five years set to be electric vehicles (EVs), the U.S. carmaker said on Wednesday. GM's electric vehicles, many of which will be all-electric battery cars, will be manufactured in China with almost all parts coming from local suppliers, the company said in a statement released at its Tech Day event in Shanghai. Reuters reported earlier on Wednesday that GM was planning to overhaul its Chinese line-up to stem a slide of sales after more than two decades of growth in a country that contributes nearly a fifth of its profit. GM's new China boss Julian Blissett told Reuters that new technologies, such as EVs and cars with near hands-free driving for highways, would play a key role in GM's China initiatives, which are part of a push to get annual sales in the country back to the 4 million peak it hit in 2017. GM did not say in its statement how many new or significantly redesigned models it was planning to launch in China over the next five years. "China will play a crucial role in making our vision a reality," GM CEO Mary Barra said in the statement, referring to its initiative to create what it describes as a future of "zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion" through electrification and smart-driving technologies. GM has said it plans to invest more than $20 billion in electric and automated vehicles globally by 2025. It was not clear how much of that investment will be spent in China.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
1956 Corvette SR-2 factory racer profiled
Mon, Jan 19 2015The Chevrolet Corvette has earned its place as America's sports car, capable of taking on the best the world can throw at it. Much of that winning reputation was earned with victories on the track. Now, there was a chance to own an early piece of the nameplate's motorsport history in the form of a 1956 Corvette SR-2 racer, but some deep pockets were necessary to get it, with an estimate of $6.885 million. The story behind the SR-2 is fascinating. In 1956, famous General Motors designer Harley Earl's son was racing in a Ferrari. Obviously, that wasn't going to work given his father's position within the automaker, and Harley and Corvette engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov got to work on a faster racecar. Three were made. This one was reportedly the first, and for 1957 it also received a fuel-injected V8 making a claimed 331 horsepower and four-speed manual gearbox, according to "Corvette Mike," the owner and seller. The SR-2 went on display in Scottsdale, AZ appropriately timed to coincide with the big Barrett-Jackson auction there that wrapped up this weekend. The car wasn't part of that event; instead marque specialist Mike Vietro sold the racer as a private treaty sale. Company spokesperson Troy Worrell told Autoblog both the bids and identities of the bidders will remain undisclosed. The video above goes into even deeper detail about this rare, finned Vette or check out the car's full description for even more info.
