YOU ARE BIDDING ON A 1955 CHEVROLET 1/2 TON PICKUP TRUCK. I PURCHASED THE TRUCK IN JUNE OF LAST YEAR IN PRETTY MUCH OFF THE FARM CONDITION. I PLANNED TO USE IT AROUND THE FARM AND MAKE A SUPPLY RUN NOW AND THEN. WHEN I PURCHASED THE TRUCK IT HAD A MISS ON NUMBER 5 CYLINDER, A LATE MODEL SEAT HAD BEEN INSTALLED AND A ROTTED OUT PIECE OF PLYWOOD WAS IN THE BED. I HAD A VALVE JOB PERFORMED AND REPLACED THE CAMSHAFT AND LIFTERS AT THE SAME TIME. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE TRUCK SINCE FALL LIKE THAT. I HAVE RECENTLY HAD THE LOWER END OF THE ENGINE OVERHAULED BECAUSE THE ENGINE WAS JUST USING TO MUCH OIL. THE ENGINE HAS NOW BEEN COMPLETELY OVERHAULED AND RUNS GREAT. IT RUNS GREAT NOW AND HAS PLENTY OF POWER. I HAVE SPENT $4,300 JUST IN THE MOTOR. THE TRANSMISSION IS THE ORIGINAL 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION WITH THE SHIFT ON THE COLUMN. THE REAR END IS THE ORIGINAL GEARING AND HAS BEEN RESEALED. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD GONE THROUGH THE BRAKES AND I HAVE REPLACED THE PARKING BRAKE CABLES FOR PROPER OPERATION. I HAVE PURCHASED THE CORRECT SEAT AND HAD THE FRAME PAINTED AND RECOVERED. IT ADJUST AND LEANS FORWARD AS DESIGNED. I REPAINTED THE CAB AND THE FLOOR DID HAVE SOME RUST AND WAS FILLED AND PAINTED. ALL THE SEALS FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL, CLUTCH, SHIFTER AND SUCH HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND NEW FIREWALL PAD AND FLOOR MAT INSTALLED. THIS IS NOT A FRAME OFF RESTORATION. I WAS ONLY INTERESTED IN A NICE SOLID TRUCK TO DRIVE. THE TAILGATE WAS MISSING, THE SIDE STEPS ON BED RUSTED OUT AND FRONT PANEL OF BED VERY BENT. I INSTALLED BOTH NEW SIDE STEPS, FRONT BED PANEL AND TAILGATE AND LIKED THE COLOR SO THE REST OF THE TRUCK WAS PAINTED A SATIN BLACK. THE TRUCK WAS ORIGINALLY DARK GREEN AND THE FIREWALL AND RIMS ARE PAINTED DARK GREEN. I USED SOME OLD RECYCLED FLOOR BOARDS FOR THE BED. IT IS TONGE AND GROOVE AND IS HELD DOWN WITH CARRIAGE BOLTS. THE REST OF THE BODY PANELS WERE FILLED AND THE WORST OF THE DENTS SMOOTHED OUT SOME. FOR A SHOW TRUCK YOU WILL WANT TO REPLACE THE FENDERS AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. DON'T BRING A MAGNET. I KNOW THERE IS PUTTY. THE WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN REPLACED BUT THE SIDE WINDOW AND REAR WINDOW MAY BE ORIGINAL. THE TRUCK HAS A STANDARD HEATER AND I HAVE REPLACED THE BLOWER MOTOR. THE DASH HAD BEEN CUT OUT FOR A MORE MODERN RADIO. A TRIM BEZEL HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND A STATE OF THE ART AM/FM RADIO. THE RADIO HAD A CD FEATURE BUT DOES NOT WORK. TWO SPEAKERS ARE MOUNTED UNDER THE DASH. I HAVE INSTALLED A TURN SIGNAL SWITCH ON THE COLUMN AND HAVE REPLACED THE TAIL LIGHTS AND FROM PARKING LIGHTS FOR SINGLE LIGHT TURN, PARKING AND BRAKE LIGHTS. ON THE OUTSIDE, THE LIGHTS APPEAR ORIGINAL. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 2,046 MILES BUT THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL ODOMETER. I PURCHASED THE SPEEDOMETER USED LAST YEAR. ALL THE GAUGES AND LIGHTS WORK INCLUDING THE DOME LIGHT. THE TWO FRONT TIRES ARE NEW BUT THE REAR TIRES ARE SOME OLDER SNOW TIRES THAT WERE ON THE TRUCK WHEN I GOT IT. THERE IS A JACK AND LUG WRENCH BEHIND THE SEAT BUT I DO NOT HAVE A SPARE TIRE. I HAVE A RIM THAT HAS A LARGE HOLE RUSTED IN IT THAT YOU ARE WELCOME TO HAVE. I DRIVE IT BACK AND FORTH TO WORK NOW AND THEN WHICH IS A 24 MILE ROUND TRIP AND IS A BALL TO DRIVE. I HAVE A BARN ON THE FARM THAT NEEDS MY IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND FUNDS SO I RELUCTANTLY OFFER THE TRUCK FOR SALE. I CAN'T AFFORD TO GIVE THE TRUCK AWAY BUT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY. THANKS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. I WILL BE HAPPY TO DELIVER THE TRUCK FREE FOR A 200 MILE RADIUS FROM FREDERICK, MARYLAND.

Sunday Drive: Trucks and SUVs of all shapes and sizes
Sun, Nov 5 2017The American automotive marketplace is dominated by trucks and SUVs, and so was the last week of coverage on Autoblog. By far, the most popular story of the week was our First Drive of the 2018 Lincoln Navigator. It may look like an old-school lumberer, but in reality Lincoln's flagship is a thoroughly modern, turbocharged-V6-powered, three-row, luxury people mover. The Jeep Wrangler is the world's most recognizable vehicle. So it's no surprise that the next version looks a whole heck of a lot like the last one, and the one before. It's all in the details, which is why we were so excited when Jeep decided to unleash a trio of images showing both two- and four-door Wranglers for us to dissect ahead of the SUV's official debut at the L.A. Auto Show later this year. Past that, spy photos of the next Chevy Silverado and Ram 1500 were predictably popular. See both of those below, and the cap it all off, check out the entire week's worth of SEMA coverage – including the bonkers Hennessey VelociRaptor 6x6 – in our mega image gallery at the bottom of this post. Enjoy! As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Lincoln Navigator First Drive | From black sheep to flagship 2018 Jeep Wrangler revealed: First photos released before L.A.

GM admits goal of 500,000 EVs by 2017 won't be met
Sat, May 9 2015After a little over four years of Chevy Volt sales, General Motors has a better handle on how many people it expects will buy cars with plugs. And it's less than the company thought back in 2012, when then-senior vice president of global product development, Mary Barra, said that GM expected to sell 500,000 "vehicles with electrification" by 2017. In a sustainability report released this week, GM says that half-million vehicle target will not be met but that it still, "believes the future is electric." In the report, GM says that, "For our commitment to electrification, our forecasted outlook currently projects us, along with the broader automotive industry, falling short of expectations for 2017. ... We continue to aspire to our stated goal." GM's electric lineup includes the Volt, the recently popular Spark EV, the slow-selling Cadillac ELR and upcoming Malibu Hybrid, CT6 plug-in hybrid and eAssist technology in the Buick LaCrosse and Regal. GM says it has 180,834 electrified vehicles on the road in the US today. In 2013, it had 153,034; 95,578 in 2012, and 39,843 in 2011. The company's next big plug-in vehicle will be the second-gen Chevy Volt, which is coming to market later this year, followed by the 200-mile Bolt EV coming, we think, in 2017. GM Employees on Mission to Transform Transportation Sustainability report outlines vehicle and manufacturing progress; sets new targets 2015-05-07 DETROIT – General Motors' just-released sustainability report chronicles efforts by the company's 216,000 employees to live out GM's newly defined purpose and values by earning customer loyalty, applying meaningful technology advances and improving the communities where it does business. These actions – led by CEO Mary Barra – further drive sustainability into the company's culture through building safer and smarter vehicles with less environmental impact. "GM will take a leading role in the auto industry's transformation as it undergoes an unprecedented period of change," said Bob Ferguson, senior vice president, GM Global Public Policy. "From GM's labs to its assembly lines, our people are driving the world to a better place through improved mobility." The company believes the future is electric, with billions of investment to support an all-in-house approach to the development and manufacturing of electrified vehicles. It now counts 180,834 on the road in the U.S – up from 153,034 in 2013.
