1983 Chevrolet K30 Short Bed Dually 4x4 on 2040-cars
Southwest, Pennsylvania, United States
|
NOTE: The truck was currently enhanced for inspection and had a new inspection sticker on it. The only reason the title shows reconstructed is because it was rebuilt into a custom truck. There is nothing wrong with the truck at all and has never been wrecked. For sale is a custom 1 ton 1983 Chevy short bed 4X4 dually. This truck used to be a wrecker until the frame was shortened up to put a six foot bed on the truck. It has a strong running big block 454 motor in it that I recently got a Weiand intake and a Holley 750 double pumper carb installed on it. The truck show 77,500 miles on the odometer but I have no proof that that is correct. Overall driving performance from the truck is impressive, and it runs very strong and never skips a beat for being about 30 years old. This truck has a 4 speed manual transmission in it with 4.56 gearing and was made for hauling or pulling. Inside the cab is in good shape for its age with the usual tear on the side of the drivers seat. Little things like the controls don't work to change the heat from the defrosters need fixed. Aftermarket CD player was installed with different speakers. Dash pad has a blue cover on it and the door panels are in good shape also with minimal fading but they need new trim work installed. The Speedometer, Voltage, and Gas Gauge all currently work. The oil pressure gauge and the water gauge work sometimes and other times they are bottomed out at zero. All of the lights outside of the truck currently work except for one of the license plate lights. High and low beams also work nicely with the switch on the floor. The floor is a vinyl mat fitted out of a newer Chevy truck so it is not original in any way. On the outside of the truck, the body had currently was painted in the newer Chevy Topaz Blue Metallic and looks pretty nice. The bed was taken off and a spot of rust on the passenger side was fixed with a small panel right behind the wheel well and there is a small crack there where the putty was. The truck comes with Bushwacker flares if you would like them because the tires stick out just a little bit because it is a cab and chassis rear end and not a wider dually rear end. In the pictures it has mud flaps on it and I have currently taken them off, but they will come with the truck too. When the bed was taken off it was wire brushed and undercoated with rubberized undercoating and is still in great shape, and comes with the bed liner. The tailgate that is on it now is black because it was the nicest one that I have and due to little time was not able to paint it. Underneath on the frame there is no rot just a little bit of surface rust starting to form on the leaf springs and on the rear end. Overall, the truck runs strong, shifts great, and pulls hard. The only mechanical problems under the hood that I know of is that there is a pinhole in the power steering hose "leaves drips in parking stall sometimes" and it needs a fan shroud. The rear end sometimes has some fluid on it but they told me it is just a gasket and it does not leak a significant amount it just sometimes leaves a few drops here and there. There are too many things to list with this truck so any questions feel free to email me. A non refundable $500.00 deposit is required after within 24 hours of the auction ending. The vehicle needs to be picked up within 5 days of the auction ending. Also the truck is for sale locally so I have the right to end the auction early if need be. Thanks for looking. |

OnStar to offer 90-day driving assessment, possible insurance discount
Wed, Jan 7 2015General Motors has announced a brace of new features for OnStar, two of which could help you save money assuming you're willing to sign over some (more) personal details. The first is a driving assessment program in which OnStar takes note of certain driving parameters for 90 days, then provides the driver feedback on their driving, both individually and when compared to other drivers in the program, as well as driving tips. Think of it as OnStar's ICE version of the Nissan Leaf's CARWING feature that compares how efficient your electric driving is compared to other BEV drivers. In this case, though, certain drivers will have the chance to share their assessment with Progressive Insurance, and if the numbers are right they might get a "driving-based" discount from the insurance company. The assessment program is voluntary, and requires opting in. It will be available this summer on all new GM cars and some GM vehicles back to 2013. In case this sounds like Big Brother, let's not forget that Big Brother is already here and moved in so long ago that he's a member of the Kiwanis club and is hosting neighborhood block parties. Progressive already has a million enrollees in a program called Snapshot that tracks OBD II data to offer usage-based insurance to provide annual pricing based on how much you drive your car, with discounts of up to 30 percent. The OnStar effort is just another way to do that. The second feature is proximity offers through AtYourService, which notifies drivers to deals and information on their driving route and provides coupons from RetailMeNot and Entertainment Book. Beyond that, a deal with Priceline will let OnStar agents book hotels for you starting this year, there's a tie-in with Dunkin' Donuts, too, but we're fuzzy on those benefits, and third new feature lets Chevrolet owners know when certain parts need replacing.

Chevy rolls out Silverado HD High Country
Wed, 09 Apr 2014It's been a good week for heavy-duty truck buyers. First, Ram revealed the Black Package for its HD trucks, then it rolled out its new Power Wagon, and now Chevy's getting in on the action with its Silverado High Country HD. Okay, so it may not pack quite the attitude of Ram's latest 2500-series offerings, but the High Country HD will come as a welcome addition to the Chevy Trucks range to those looking to pull their horse, boat or other trailer without skimping on creature comforts.
Rolled out a little under a year ago, the High Country trim is Chevy's answer to the likes of the GMC Denali, Ford King Ranch and Ram Longhorn. It has until now only been offered on the light duty, 1500-series Silverado, but now extends to the 2500 and 3500-series HD models, as well.
So what sets a High Country pickup apart from lesser Chevy trucks? You'll be able to pick it out based on its chrome horizontal grille, body-color bumpers, 6-inch tubular side steps, 20-inch chrome wheels (18-inch on the 3500 and 17-inch on the dualie) and, of course, plenty of special badging. But it's inside where the High Country makes its mark, with a cabin decked out in saddle brown perforated leather, seats that are both heated and cooled, eight-inch touchscreen with full MyLink suite, Bose audio and park assist functions front and rear to keep those color-keyed bumpers looking fresh. (Though Chevy hasn't yet showed us the interior of the HD model, it'll presumably look mostly the same as the cab in the 1500 High Country in the gallery below.)
Recharge Wrap-up: U of M wins Solar Challenge, family attempts record-breaking e-bike ride
Thu, Aug 14 2014The University of Michigan Solar Car Team has won the 2014 American Solar Challenge. It is the team's eighth national championship, its fifth in a row, and its first using Siemens' product lifecycle management (PLM) software. The race took place over 1,722 miles and seven days traveling across eight states. The team's car, called "Quantum," outpaced the nearest competitor by four hours. Looking forward, Michigan Solar Car Project Manager Pavan Naik says, "The switch to Siemens tools will give us the ability to model and simulate everything and truly allow us to optimize the performance of our new vehicle. As we start on our quest to win the World Solar Challenge in 2015, we'll be leveraging a full complement of PLM solutions." Read more in the press release below. The EcoCar3 competition, in which teams will convert Chevrolet Camaros into hybrid electric cars, begins in September. The various college teams will have four years to lessen the car's environmental impact as much as possible while maintaining performance and, of course, that cool Camaro design. EcoCar3, which is put on by the US Department of Energy and General Motors, kicks off with a workshop in Novi, Michigan from September 16 - 18. Read more at the DOE website at the dedicated EcoCar3 site or watch the announcement video at our previous post. Zap and Jonway Auto are shifting to a high rate of EV production. Zap already has two lines creating the Urbee EV to met demand, and is switching over a third to make electric minivans and SUVs. The company aims to produce 30,000 EVs by 2015 for the Chinese market. Zap says it has a backlog of 25,000 Urbee orders. Read more in the press release below. A family of four hopes to make a world record-breaking, 6,000-mile electric bike journey this fall. The family, which recently drove from Argentina to Montana in a pickup with a camper, will ride from Montana to Maine, then down the East Coast to Florida in an attempt to break the record for longest electric bicycle ride. They'll use two bikes. The Father, Thomas, will ride one of the bikes carrying one of the children, while the rest of the family rides in a support vehicle, with the mother, Dylan, riding the second bike when they can find others to drive. They have started a crowdfunding campaign for some of the equipment needed to document the trip. See the video below or read more at Treehugger.
