This 1966 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup has been well maintained over the years.
Equipped with a 350 V8, 4 bolt main, original SM465 manual trans, front suspension and rear axle have been upgraded with front disc brakes and newer rear axle with a 4.11 gear ratio (swapped from a 1985 Chevy Suburban). New brakes, new 2 row racing aluminum radiator w/ 16"elec fan, new power steering pump, power brakes, new alternator, new high flow water pump. Interior upgraded with high back bucket seats (driver side is a power seat). Has original HO72 3/4 ton axle in the truck bed and will be sent with the truck. Truck has a heavy duty, locking tool box mounted in the bed. Original wood bed is under plywood overlay. (updated pics showing the tool box will be posted as soon as possible, just installed yesterday).

Arizona truck, but due to my daughter moving home to Illinois at the end of June ( she just graduated from ASU) we just changed the title over to an Illinois title. Truck has no rust, runs and drives strong. Hoping to sell while it's still in Arizona, otherwise we will transport it to Illinois and keep it in the family. The truck is currently located in Mesa,Arizona 85201.

Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs, but we will be available to assist in loading if a transport company is supplied bu the buyer. This truck is fully operational and can be safely driven cross country if desired.

Dear motorhd58,

Gene, Yes the truck can be sold locally as long as the bid has not reached my reserve price. I did for a short time consider having it advertised there at ASU as my daughter had a couple of people ask her about the truck on days that she drove it to school. This could easily be used as a daily driver as I have driven it every day that I am out there when I visit her and she in turn used it to go back and forth to school. Like I said though, it does have some minor "gremlins", nothing major. I will send you a text with my number and feel free to call me to set up a time to go see it. It is currently close to the reserve, so the sooner the better.
Thanks, David

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?

Sat, Sep 23 2017

If 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.
