1955 Chevrolet 1st series pickup truck. Solid Kansas truck. Original 235, 3spd that runs great. All gages work, new brake master cylinder, rebuilt brakes, rubber brake hoses, radiator hoses, belt, seat cover, door panels, headliner, door seals, glove box, transmission cable, fuel tank sending unit, filter and line. Also has an NOS set of Lee brand 15" front tires. Rears are 275 60 15s that are old. This truck runs, drives, and brakes great. Should pass inspection easily. Still on 6 volt system. Underhood is nearly all original. Comes with right side repair panel, dogleg and mount. Factory options are deluxe heater and foot operated windshield washer. Bottle assembly is missing. I also have another pair of correct 15" rims for the rear, but no tires on them.

Rust: Rust is pretty much in the kick panel areas, a spot in the drivers side running board, and, of course the rust patina.

Glass, overall, is good, passenger side door glass is new, front does have 2 small bulls eyes in it.

History: The truck was bought in the Wichita, KS area. Right door says faintly, John P. Gaty, Wichita, KS, 3000 lbs. I believe its the same John P Gaty who was an engineer, and head salesman for Beachcraft Air in Wichita, and an amateur photographer. The timeline, name, etc, all match up to what I think was his truck. I have paperwork to send in to KS DMV, but have yet to send it in. I was able to talk to the gentleman who owned since the mid-70s and it appears the truck has spent almost all its life in Wichita/Emporia, KS area.

This truck would be great to restore back to original. The red paint, history, and solid condition makes it worthy of a full authentic restoration. Sold as is, where is. Title is clear.

Any questions, please call, 816-726-4512.

I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Truck is for sale locally as well.

Payment/pickup/storage: I expect a $500 non-refundable deposit within 3 days of end of auction. Balance to be paid in full with cash, certified or cleared MO or check, wire transfer, or paypal. Truck, title, does not leave my possession until all monies are paid. Pickup/delivery is the responsibility of the buyer. I will store for 14 days, sheltered for free. Every day after that is a $2 per day. Conditions are negotiable. Overseas buyers are accepted.

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.

Watch a 2015 Corvette Z06 run the quarter in 11.7 seconds

Sun, Dec 28 2014

We're not writing about this because it's an amazing run, we're writing about it because it appears to be the first run. Someone took a 2015 Corvette Z06 to Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas and blasted it down through the quarter mile. It's still wearing the dealer number in wax pen on the windshield and dealer plates, so this example is fresh from the mold. It's also a seven-speed manual. General Motors said the row-your-own Z06 can do the 'strip in 11.2 seconds, and they undoubtedly had a professional driver and more than one run to set that time. To have Just Some Guy show up at the raceway and do an 11.7 at 120.54 mph on his first run means we expect good things to come as Z06s get delivered to their owners. Check out the run in the video.
