Fleetside Automatic Ps Pb Tilt Custom Deluxe 4x4 1967 1968 1969 1970 1972 on 2040-cars
Carson City, Nevada, United States
I have owned this truck since 1981. I purchased it in Reno, Nevada and it was originally sold in Reno. I have used it for a daily driver, hunting, and all of the other things trucks are used for but I have always over-maintained it and taken exceptional care of the truck. It has been garaged for all but 2 of the 33 years I've owned it. As you can see by the listing it has about 275,000 miles. I purchased it with 41,157 miles. As is indicated, I have only driven the truck about 17,000 miles in the last 10 years. I bought another truck in 2007 and only drive this truck occasionally now. It has taken me quite a few years to come to the point where I can finally consider selling it. It has been a great truck for me. Many of the drivetrain components have been replaced over the years and I have maintenance records to show when the repairs were done. My maintenance records are detailed and include receipts. Have the build sheet out of the original seat in fair condition. I have completed most of the maintenance myself. It has surface rust on the undercarriage as shown in the photos. I removed a dime sized rust spot on the passenger door 8 or so years ago by cutting the metal away and replacing it with new metal. As the same time I coated the lower body side with 3M Rocker Schutz coating to resist paint chips before the final paint was applied. A few years before that, I cut ventilation areas in the bottom of the rocker areas behind the front doors to prohibit water collection and arrest rust formation. Rust preventative was applied and rust that had begun to appear in those areas has not progressed in over 10 years. I will provide photos if there is concern about rust on the truck. Engine/Drivetrain 7/2004 258,571 Mles
The front and rear differential gears are stock. They are 4.10 gear ratio and both differentials are open. I have always changed the gear oil and replaced seals as necessary. The 4-wheel-dirve works well. Lock the hubs and shift it in, no issues. I had the shifter professionally shortened in order to provide more center seat leg room. The shortened lever does not affect the ability to shift to 4wd.
Brakes; Front got new calipers, pads, and hardware at 245,632. Rear; always checked and maintained. Tires; New BFG Radial Mud Terrain LT/255/85R16 at 262,981. Alcoa OEM alloy wheels from newer style Chevrolet HD pickup. New Steering Gear at 240,666. Anti-sway bar added to front axle to improve cornering. Also has steering stabilizer. New Vortex mufflers at approximately 270,000. Front seat out of newer Chevrolet pickup. Cloth upholstery with headrests and integral seat belts. Seat is bolted through floor to steel plate that connects front and rear bolts. After-market cruise control that works but has issues on some settings. Accessories:
Comes with the following: Original Chevrolet owner, service, and assembly manuals, Chilton's service manual, original steering wheel in good condition, additional tailgate guard, other miscellaneous parts. Oil changed at 274,492 a couple of weeks ago. Mobil 1 Full Syn 10w-30. I have tried to describe the truck the best I can. It runs good and drives nice. It is a very nice example of a well maintained truck, some might consider it babied. It is not perfect and is not a show truck as I have never restored it. I can be contacted with any questions and will be happy to provide honest answers to the best of my ability.

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW cars to share i tech, Jordan to build solar EV charging network
Wed, Jan 14 2015Jordan is looking to promote EVs and build a solar charging network. The country is waiving import tariffs on electric cars, and is spending $120 million on solar chargers. It plans to build 3,000 charging stations, along with 30 MW of solar power. Some chargers will be powered by solar canopies, while others will get electricity from nearby solar farms. Jordan's solar plan should also help to lessen the amount of energy it needs to import from nearby countries. Read more from Navigant Research, or at Green Car Reports. BMW's mainstream cars will benefit from technology borrowed from the i3 and i8, according to BMW sales head Ian Robertson. In an interview with Automotive News, Robertson said that next-generation cars will use carbon fiber more extensively, and that more cars will get plug-in technology. He said that about half of i3 buyers opt for the range extender and added that it is incorrect to refer to a range-extended electric vehicle as a plug-in hybrid. Read more at Automotive News. The ethanol market should remain healthy despite falling oil prices. While cheap oil could drive down ethanol prices, demand still remains due to the federal biofuels standard. Additionally, ethanol producers may find it cheaper to ship their products as domestic oil production drops and railroad shipping opens up. Ethanol byproducts like distillers grains continue to sell, and foreign demand continues as other countries impose their own renewable fuel standards. Read more at Yahoo News. Via Motors will launch the production of an electric Chevrolet Silverado. The company will convert the pickups into range-extended EVs at its assembly line in Mexico, near GM's Silverado plant. Via has the capacity to produce 10,000 vehicles per year at its Mexico facility. Via Motors Chairman (and former GM Vice Chairman during the early days of the Chevrolet Volt project) Bob Lutz wants to help make EVs mainstream in America, and believes that requires electrifying pickups and SUVs.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.
