1972 Chevy C-30 4X4 One Ton Stake Body Dually Plow Truck This truck is a beast. It was a wrecker back in the day. It has custom fabricated front bumper and stake body with slots for sides and back. It comes with 5' high pressure treated ply and 2X4 sides with back hinging doors for hauling things to the dump. The back end was recently redone with 1/4" diamond plate and structural U Channel criss crossing underneath. It has a Pintal and Reese hitch. All outside lights work and it had recent inspection. The front breaks were recently done and rear are good. Front tires are like new and rear duels are good and pass inspection. No dry rot. Engine is great running 350 with high and low four speed. it has a nice short wheel base for plowing and is lifted for better visability. Everything on the truck is super heavy duty. I hauled 16 railroad ties and the springs started to squat. The interior is clean with good solid floor, bucket seats out of a Blazer, lit oil and temp gauges, working speedometer. Heater works but not fan. I recently installed new cab corners and driver rocker panel. Skins on doors were next. But decided to sell to buy a small dump. Doors could be replaced if need be but they function. Fenders are good with some rust but are fixable. Grill is nice and all there. The back of cab is rusted through near replaced cab corner but is fixable. A couple cab mounts need work. A guy I know in Corning, NY just built some for a truck. There is plenty of steel to mount them to. Frame is real solid like new. Dual exhaust is tight. All glass is good except passenger door glass is gone. Found one on Ebay for $50. The plow is a manual tilt. Pull a pin and it moves easy. It has an electric lift with an extra lift as a backup. The plow is in decent shape and goes on and off easy. A set of front chains are included.
I have never seen a C-30 like it around here. They crushed them because they were so heavy. I've had the truck for eight years and it always starts and stops. Its great for hauling and moving lots of weight. You could put a fifth wheel hitch on it and pull a camper. You could mount a small crane on it and move big rocks. It has a lot of life left in it for being 41 years old. Check it out! Call me if you want more photos or have questions. It takes for ever to upload photos to Ebay. Mike 607 368 6000

Suzuki recalls 2 million cars globally
Wed, Apr 22 2015Suzuki is recalling two million vehicles across the globe, including a number of Chevrolet Cruze sedans that it builds for General Motors, because the ignition switches may begin to smoke. None of the Cruzes being recalled were sold in the US, though. This recall is limited to the Japanese, European and Australian markets. In Suzuki's home market, 1,873,000 vehicles are being recalled, including the Cruze and a number kei cars built for Mazda (the Carol and AZ-Wagon), as well as the automaker's own Alto, Wagon R and Swift. Affected vehicles were built between 1998 and 2009. The remaining 133,000 vehicles include Cruzes and other Suzuki products sold in Europe and Australia. There have been no reports of injuries or accidents due to the 67 reported incidents, all of which come from the Japanese market, a Suzuki spokesperson told Automotive News. Related Video:
Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]
Fri, 14 Dec 2012Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?
