& N air filter system, All power PLEASE READ ENTIRE ADD BEFORE BIDDING OR ASKING QUESTIONS CAN BEE SEEN NEAR ZIP CODE 62629, WAVERLY, ILLINOIS I have this gently used 3/4 ton Chevy Long Bed for sale. It has never been “worked” on a full time basis and was driven an under average 10,000 miles a year. It has never plowed. I used it to pull a small two horse trailer a few times a year. It had never towed until I owned it. We are now towing a larger travel trailer and bought a more adequate tow vehicle so I no longer have use for this one. I sent this truck to my mechanic last week in anticipation of offering it for sale and told him to go through it and do whatever it needed. He called me and said there was nothing for him to do. I then sent it to my detail-er who steam cleans the interior and gives a coat of wax three time a year. Before I buy any vehicle I run a build sheet. I purchased this truck because it had all the heavy duty goodies offered that year. I can email the entire build order but some HD options are; Codes C6P – GVWR 8600lbs FF6 & FF7 – Adjustable front torsion spring F60 – Heavy Duty Spring (Front) GT4 – Rear Axle 3:73 G80 – Differential, Heavy Duty locking rear KNP – External transmission oil cooler MT1 – Transmission, 4 Speed Auto, Heavy Duty NZZ – Skid Plate package VYU – Snow Plow prep package As a daily driver, regular maintenance and repair was never overlooked. Oil changed like clockwork. Pictures show a dry transmission and oil pan. Tires aren’t even 1 year old. All major service performed by either Midas or Firestone. I have all receipts. Some things that were done recently are; New Rotors, New drums, brake pads, flush brake system Monroe Reflex Shocks HD Radiator hoses, flush system Pittman and idler arms Bridgestone AT Revo Dueler Tires B & W Goose-neck trailer hitch. (Professionally installed by Trailer Masters in 2011) This vehicle is in very good shape for its age and category. EVERYTHING WORKS. There are blemishes and imperfections normal for its age that do not show up in pictures. There are three small dings in the hood which I have tried to show but they are small and the camera won’t pick them up to good. The tailgate functions perfectly but has the damage shown in the picture. You are encouraged to come look at it and inspect by appointment only. Bring your mechanic if you like. Vehicle is sold as is. It will be registered and insured until the auction end. Please bring whatever your state requires for transport, plates will be removed. |

Surprise! GM putting aluminum in next-gen pickups
Wed, Aug 5 2015Last month, General Motors launched a series of ads touting the benefits of steel over aluminum – specifically, with regard to the Chevy Silverado versus the Ford F-150. (Kind of. We're not sure what a grizzly bear has to do with anything.) We took issue with the ads, with editor in chief Mike Austin saying they "reek of insecurity, and distract from the Silverado's strengths that could be used for positive advertising." But what bothers us more, is that yet another report surfaced claiming anti-aluminum GM will indeed use the weight-saving material in its next-generation fullsize trucks. On Tuesday, GM announced a $877-million investment for its truck plant in Flint, MI. But Reuters says that huge overhaul is because the trucks will use "substantially different equipment than the tools GM uses today." The report specifically states, "People familiar with the company's plans say GM's next-generation pickups and SUVs will make use of various materials, including aluminum and lightweight steel, to shed weight and gain fuel efficiency to meet tougher federal standards." The Silverado already uses a few aluminum components in the engine and hood, and if more widespread use will help GM build its best fullsize trucks ever, then that's great. Honestly, we have no reason to doubt that aluminum will be used in the next Silverado and GMC Sierra. We just hope GM remembers that nothing is ever truly deleted from the bowels of the Internet when it launches the subsequent "look how great aluminum is!" campaign.

Anti-purist 1963 Ferrari GTE sports hot rod Chevy V8
Thu, Oct 8 2015I remember reading a story around the time Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift came out. It focused on one of the star cars of that film, a 1967 Ford Mustang fastback that started the film as a shell, and in a pinch, was transformed into a modified masterpiece, complete with the RB26DETT engine from a Nissan Skyline GT-R (which started the film under the hood of an S15 Silvia). There was a genuine (and in our minds, absurd) fear in the article that taking a piece of classic American iron and fitting a twin-turbocharged JDM engine would result in some awful trend in the classic car community. If you thought a GT-R-powered classic Mustang was sacrilege, though, this car will probably make you vomit. For the rest of us, it's a neat piece of engineering. Shown above is a 1963 Ferrari 250 GTE, and yes, that's a 302-cubic-inch, small-block Chevrolet V8 under the hood. On top of that, it uses the six-speed manual transmission from a Viper, a nine-inch Ford rear end, and Mitsubishi-sourced paint. So yeah, it's a FrankenFerrari. Check out Road Heads' interview with this custom GTE's owner, which is followed by a brief test drive. And of course, head into Comments afterwards, and let us know what you think. Is this Yankee-powered 250 GTE blasphemous or badass?
Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?
