LIFTED 1971 CHEVY K-20 4X4! CORVETTE FUEL INJECTED LT1! AIR CONDITIONING! SHARP! If you are in the market for a really fun classic vehicle to drive but want to stand out from the crowd and have modern creature comforts then look no further! We have decided to sell our 1971 Chevrolet Cheyenne K/20 pickup. This truck isn't just your run of the mill truck though. For starters this truck started off before restoration as a clean rust free truck with 21k original miles. The restoration was basically just a clean and repaint and the body was not removed. A 4" suspension lift was added to the factory 3/4 ton 4x4 drivetrain. It was then painted a beautiful blue and white 2 tone. A set of 16x10 Weld wheels were added and wrapped in 315/70-17 Nitto Terra Grappler tires that currently have around 50-60% tread. Then the powertrain was upgraded with a 1993 Corvette Fuel Injected LT1 engine along with a painless harness and Hypertech tuned computer with a functioning OBD1 port and Check engine lights. Ceramic coated long tube headers were then installed as well as electric fans, Magnaflow exhaust, and a twin ram intake. An HD A/C compressor was added to the factory A/C system as well as a serpentine belt system. The truck rides on Skyjacker shocks and handles well. The truck is also equipped with power steering that you can turn with one finger and power brakes that work well. The factory 14 bolt rear differential and front Dana 44 differentials are filled with 3.73 gears and topped off with chrome differential covers. The factory TH400 transmission was rebuilt to handle more power as well as upgraded with a shift kit and trans cooler. The factory behind the seat fuel tank was removed and a custom built stainless fuel cell was built into the front of the bed and looks great. All the factory gauges work as they should and are as accurate as they were from the factory. The interior was then wrapped in a custom tweed and a custom bowtie headliner was also installed. The truck has a nice aftermarket CD player as well. This restoration is about 15 years old but still looks great. This truck sold at auction 14 years ago for $37,000 plus fees. Everything works and any buyer that would like to the drive truck home from a long distance is welcomed as this truck drives like and is as reliable as a new truck. The only mechanical issue with this truck is a belt squeal that goes away when warm but may be fixed before the truck is sold. We have taken this truck on several long trips and it performed flawlessly. The truck does in fact only have 38,791 miles. The miles may go up just a little as this truck is driven frequently. A brief walkaround video can be viewed at http://youtu.be/odSAmXz0lAs We are offering this truck at NO RESERVE! I don't want to offer a Buy It Now because I would like it to sell for what it's worth. The highest bidder WILL WIN! For more information call or text Matt at 615-364-4835. NO TRADES will be accepted. We are located around 30min from Nashville International Airport and free airport pickup is available. |

Looking back at the Citation IV concept that likely shaped the GM EV1
Wed, Aug 20 2014Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it. We're not sure how that applies to the GM EV1, but we'd still like to share something from Autoline Daily, an online automotive new show with our friend John McElroy. He's been covering the business for decades now and recently found something interesting: pictures of the 1984 Chevrolet Citation IV concept, seen above. Displayed half a decade before the first electric concept that would become the EV1 (inset), McElroy says it's now clear that the elegant, aerodynamic EV1 took a lot of styling cues from the Citation IV, which was developed in part thanks to GM's new-at-the-time Aerodynamics Laboratory. We agree with him that the spats over the rear wheels, the flush glass, and the covered headlights all bear a certain kind of similarity between the two cars. That the colors almost match is a nice coincidence. The Impact (the concept version of the EV1) looked "frumpier," McElroy says, because it wasn't as long as the Citation. You can read a lot more about the Citation IV here and check out McElroy's thoughts in the video below. Find the Citation starting at around 3:45. This content is hosted by a third party.

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.
