I am selling this vehicle for my son, so here is his description of the truck. This truck has been my daily driver for the past 8 years now and has served me well with no major repairs that were needed, only minor maintenance and parts that would need replacing just from normal wear and tear. This truck was an older older restoration project from about 10 years ago. It was a body off frame restoration, cab had body work, and the paint is base coat clear coat. 6 ft. bed was a N.O.S. for a 1978, no body work, and frenched taillights in fenders. Frame and suspention parts were painted. Shocks and stabilizer, stainless steel brake lines and hoses, brake booster and master cylinder, gas tank, 4X4 hubs rebuilt, upper and lower ball joints about 3 years ago. Tie rod and pitman arm about 3 years ago. CCA wood planks for the bed with a rubber liner over it. Rihno liner coated sides and inside tailgate. windshield, carpet and bench seats were done, but as you can see seat needs to be redone. The driver side is torn. Clutch plate, disc, throwout bearing and fork. Engine is a 250 straight 6 and only the head was rebuilt. Trans. is a 4-speed with that super low 1 st. gear. Trans. and transfer case is in good condition. I bought it 2 years after it was finished, but like I said it's been outside for 8 years and it's been my daily driver. Here is a list of parts recently replaced. Water pump, plugs, wires ,cap, rotor, brake pads and shoes, good used power steering pump, alternator, battery and front axle universal joints. The engine does leak some oil but runs good. The body is showing signs of rust and some rot as shown in the pictures, but still looks real nice when pulled up next to it. Even though it's a 6 cyl., with the 4X4 activated, it's an animal in the snow. I never got stuck anywhere. If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer the best that I can. For more details if needed, you can call my cell at 631-708-4497. I reserve the right to end auction early, as this truck is also for sale locally. Truck is sold as is, no refunds, no returns, so be sure you ask any questions you may have or if possible, look before bidding. Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick-up and or shipping. I require a non refundable deposit through paypal of $500.00 within 24 hours of auctions end. Full payment is required within 7 days of auctions end either by cash upon picking up truck or a wire transfer to my bank, truck to be released when funds have cleared.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
2016 Chevrolet Equinox gets styling tweaks, not much else
Thu, Feb 12 2015The current Chevy Equinox debuted over five years ago, in late 2009. Since then, the midsize crossover segment has become increasingly important, with brand-new entries meeting substantially overhauled versions of existing nameplates. But the Equinox carried on, largely unchanged. And while Chevy is using its Chicago Auto Show stage to debut the freshened, 2016 Equinox, it appears there isn't a whole lot to talk about. Take a look at the updated Equinox's exterior and you're pretty much going to see all that's new for 2016. Sure, the Chevy still boasts a handsome, inoffensive design, and it's now upgraded with things like LED running lamps on top-level trims, as well as new 17- and 18-inch wheel designs, projector beam headlamps, and revised taillamp styling. Moving inside, Chevy has added a standard seven-inch color touchscreen to all models, which includes a backup camera. New-to-Equinox safety features like side cross traffic alert and side blind zone alert are also available for 2016. And really, that's about it. Powertrain options carry over from last year. On the base end, there's a 2.4-liter inline-four that's good for up to 32 miles per gallon on the highway (with front-wheel drive). Buyers can also opt for a 301-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6 that allows the Equinox to tow up to 3,500 pounds. Will this be enough to keep the Equinox fresh in its highly competitive class? In 2014, the Equinox did outsell lower-volume competitors like the Mazda CX-5 and Subaru Forester, but was bested by fresher offerings like the Ford Escape, Honda CR-V, and Toyota RAV4. Have a look at all there is to know about the 2016 Equinox in the press blast below. We'll have live images and more impressions direct from the Chicago show floor, soon. Fresh Face: Chevrolet Introduces Restyled 2016 Equinox Premium cues, new safety features enhance Chevy's record-selling compact SUV CHICAGO – Chevrolet today introduced the 2016 Equinox – a contemporized version of the popular compact SUV. Updates include new styling with premium accents, new wheel designs and new available safety features, as well as a larger color touchscreen radio and a standard rear-vision camera for entry-level models.
GM might share the Chevy Volt's powertrain tech with rivals
Mon, Feb 8 2016Car shoppers might eventually find the award-winning powertrain from the second-generation Chevrolet Volt under the hood of another automaker's vehicle – at least if General Motors global powertrain chief Dan Nicholson gets his way. According to Automotive News, Nicholson would be open to partnerships with other companies to share the range-extended setup. "We want to be the partner of choice in propulsion system development in this complex and turbulent era we are approaching," he told the trade publication. For an automaker that wants an electrified solution, the Volt's system would be an easy choice. It combines a 1.5-liter four-cylinder with two electric motors and an 18.4-kWh lithium-ion battery. The EPA estimates the setup is good for 106 MPGe combined and 53 miles of EV range in the Volt. Wards selected the powertrain for its 10 Best Engines list for 2016, and the Chevy won the Green Car of the Year Award. According to Automotive News, a partnership could have serious financial implications for GM and its collaborator. Rival automakers could get a competitive powertrain without the huge expense of research and development. Meanwhile, The General would benefit from larger economies of scale to drive down prices. Don't look for the Volt's powertrain to arrive in other vehicles too soon, though. GM spokesperson Kevin Kelley told Autoblog that he was "not aware of anything going on" in regards to negotiations with other automakers. In the meantime, we'll keep our eyes open for companies borrowing the Bowtie's advanced tech.
