For Sale:  1952 Chevrolet 3-window 3/4T Long Bed Pick Up truck, (8) lug hubs, 16" steel wheels, heavy duty springs. 

Description:  Our truck is a CLEAN, Excellent running, driving, road worthy truck that was purchased as a "display" truck for my welding business.  The truck is virtually rust free, and when I say rust free, I don't mean the surface rust.  She has plenty of that, but the floor boards, kick panels, rocker panels, cab bottoms, floor, fender wells and the bed itself are beautiful.  She does have some rust-through surface(s) where the upper rear part of the front fenders meet the interior kick panels on the cab, but this is minor and not bad at all.  The pictures in this listing of our truck ARE the pictures of the truck that you will be purchasing.  This truck has a 12-volt battery but the truck itself has not been formally converted to a 12 volt system.  All physical dash indications in the truck work perfectly.  The truck shifts great, starts right up and runs like it's purring.  It could be put to work immediately as is, or restored.  This is really a nice, solid truck.  She was purchased for a promotional vehicle for my welding business, but I get enough referrals via word of mouth, and we really need to purchase a tractor, so the truck is being sold. 

Condition:  The truck has obviously had some bumps and scrapes along it's life.  The driver's front fender was hit and poorly repaired at one time.  The passenger side rear fender had a chain come loose in the snow and damaged the right rear fender at the rear lip as shown.  None of this minor damage described is unrepairable.  The rear bed is complete as it was original, but it is all under a sheet of 3/32" steel that was placed in the bed at some point during the truck's life down here in Texas, (see pics.).  The glass is all there, but it's not all good.  Most of it will have to be replaced.  It's chipped, it's cracked, and it's pitted.  The rubber gaskets around all the glass are virtually crusted completely hard and are unserviceable.  The doors open and close without any sag whatsoever.  I have removed all the old cracked-up upolstry to preserve the seat springs, which are in excellent condition.  The windshield wipers work intermittantly.  The wiring is all original; but she uses a push-button starter switch taped to the steering column to facilitate the starter action on the newer 235 engine.  She has just had a coolant flush, and a fresh oil & oil filter change.

New Parts:  New keys, ignition, locks, Battery, battery cables, positive and negative, fuel pump, fuel tank, fuel cap, fuel line, fuel filter, & oil filter.

Extras:  The was ordered with the radio blank, turn signals, windshield wipers, and a heater.  All of these items are installed and/or functioning in the truck.  The truck will have a complete spare '52 grill assembly that goes with it, a full size mounted and balanced 16" rim and tire, as shown in the bed.  I also have a 4-cross lug wrench and jack that will go with the truck.  The truck has had a professionally welded/extended 12-Volt Battery tray fabricated to use the existing holes for the original, (smaller), battery box in the frame under the passenger side floor board.  The 12V battery itself sits below the original floor board access panel, clearly visitable in the pictures, just like the stock 6 volt battery did.  You can easilly pull the 12V battery up through the floor for removal.  I do have the stock OEM radio blank plate that goes into the dash, which does go with the truck.  I also have a spare door glass that is packaged for shipment.

I will provide DETAILED pictures of any part of the car you wish, before you purchase and/or make an offer, if you're not seeing what you need to see in the pics I have posted.  I will answer any questions completely, before you make your offer and/or purchase.  Please do not hesitate to email me through the E-bay matrix, or simply speed it up by calling:  (254) 368-7399. If you do not want your question posted to the listing, please let me know that in your contact and your contact will be kept private.  Thank you for your interest and best of luck to all interested parties.  The truck IS for sale locally here in Central Texas, Killeen 76548.  The truck is located 55 minutes NNE of Austin City Central, 50 minutes SSW of Waco, TX and 2.5 hours NNE of San Antonio, 4.0 hours NNW of Houston, and 4.0 hours SSW of Dallas, TX.

Jay Leno drives Joe Rogan's '65 Chevy Corvette restomod

Tue, Sep 1 2015

Restomod classics often look great rolling down the road, but they can be an absolute mess underneath. That's the problem comedian Joe Rogan discovered after purchasing his 1965 Corvette convertible that was already extensively modified. Once work began to improve it further, some serious issues were discovered. Now, Rogan's rejuvenated 'Vette has received a thorough update on the latest, extra-long edition of Jay Leno's Garage. Rogan's additional upgrades include a new interior and adding nacelles behind the seats. Power is up thanks to a supercharger for the LS1 V8. Now only do you get to hear the engine roar, but Leno and Rogan also take the convertible for a long ride in the Los Angeles hills. They reminisce about liking cars as kids, the current state of General Motors, and Rogan's work with the UFC. Leno also shares a funny story about a confusing discussion with Marlon Brando. With the beautiful 'Vette and the great conversation, there's a lot here to like. Related Video:

Chevy Silverado Special Ops will go into limited production

Tue, Dec 15 2015

Remember the Special Ops edition Silverado? Chevy showcased it as a show truck at SEMA last month. And now it's going into limited production, and proceeds will support the National Navy SEAL Museum. The special pickup was based on a Silverado 1500 in Z71 spec and done up with a special three-tone paint job inspired by the camouflage used on 20th-century warships. Known as Razzle Dazzle, the camo was designed to disguise a ship's form and movements from enemy vessels. Chevy also fitted the show truck with a sport bar, off-road LEDs, lower- and under-body reinforcement, and flared wheel arches packing special 20-inch wheels. Following its debut at SEMA, former GM chairman Dan Akerson (a US Naval Academy alum) and retired Navy SEAL Master Chief Rick Kaiser presented the concept truck at the 116th Army-Navy football game this past weekend. Chevy hasn't said just how many it will build and at what price, but production is slated to be "limited," going on sale in the spring.

Everest Team to raise Post Traumatic Stress Disorder awareness - GM Military Discount expands to include all veterans PHILADELPHIA – For the sixth consecutive year, Chevrolet is the official vehicle sponsor of Saturday's Army-Navy Game. During the game, Chevrolet will honor military service men and women, particularly its special forces. Former General Motors Chairman and CEO Dan Akerson, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate, will join retired U.S. Navy SEAL Master Chief Rick Kaiser, executive director of the National Navy SEAL Museum, to salute the special forces during the presentation of a Chevy Silverado Special Ops Concept vehicle at the game. The limited production version is expected to go on sale next spring. Chevrolet will donate a portion of the proceeds from each Special Operations Silverado sold to benefit the Navy SEAL Museum. "The partnership will also help us aid the families of fallen, injured and active duty Navy SEALs through the efforts of our Trident House and scholarship programs," said Kaiser. Founded in 1985, the museum honors the service and legacy of the U.S. Navy SEALs. Located in Ft. Pierce, Fla., the museum and memorial are recognized as the birthplace of the Navy SEALs.
