 This fun truck has been my daily driver for most of the winter up to now. It started with no problems in temps as low as 41 below.  ( Thank god the heater works! )   I purchased it from a guy here in Montana who got it from his Grandfather. It is a great driver with almost everything redone.  As you can see most of the body work has been done. It has had new rear cab corners, cab steps, and minor dings repaired. It does still need final sanding and final prep. ( most people say NO don't paint it, I love it just like that, just clear coat it. )  It does need drivers side floor pan repaired or replaced. The motor was a complete rebuild. generator rebuilt - new regulator - new wiring - starter rebuilt - 12 volt - radiator - all new belts - new hoses - new battery - new clutch - trans gone through - ( I have a 4 speed floor shift if desired ) brakes work as good as any thing on the road. It has new tires. all gauges work as do the lights and wipers. radio with sub under the seat. I have a good windshield to go with it to replace the existing cracked one. I do not have replacement glass for the side window or wing vent since those are something i had planed to replace with new tinted glass witch is easy to buy at a reasonable price. The new bed is built great and finished with exterior urethane and has no sign of weathering. Truck steers great with no excess steering play and you can take your hands off the wheel and it goes straight as an arrow. I do have the front bumper and grill in good condition.  THINK HARD ABOUT THIS----90% OF ALL PEOPLE WHO BUY A NON RESTORED VEHICLE WILL NEVER GET IT ON THE ROAD AND MOST WILL NEVER EVEN GET IT 40% DONE EVEN IF IT IS 35% DONE WHEN THEY BUY IT.   THEY WILL LOSE MONEY FOR TRANSPORTING, PARTS PURCHASED, AND A LOT OF WORK.  YOU CAN BUY THIS TRUCK AND DO ALMOST NOTHING OR FINISH WILE YOU DRIVE IT. I WAS GOING TO JUST FLAT BLACK IT WITH RATTLE CANS VERY CHEEP AND WOULD LOOK GREAT WITH THE RED WHEELS BUT WANTED TO LET EVERYONE SEE WHAT IT WAS LIKE INSTEAD IF WONDERING IF IT WAS BUILT OUT OF BONDO AND PRIMED TO HIDE IT.  BUY SMART AND HAVE FUN INSTEAD OF BUY STUPID AND WORK HARD AND HAVE NO FUN.  One more note, it always costs less to ship a running truck than a dead truck.                MORE PICTURES TO COME !!!!!!!!                please feel free to contact me Rick (406) 570-7770  THANKS

Weekly Recap: Revisting the BBC report that ended Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear run

Sat, Mar 28 2015

Jeremy Clarkson's long run as a Top Gear host has come to an end, and the reason is clear: His physical assault on one of the show's producers crossed a line, and the government-owned BBC couldn't tolerate it. The incident between Clarkson and Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon was initially described as a "fracas," and Clarkson was suspended. But his popularity and widespread support – even British Prime Minister David Cameron weighed in – suggested that the controversial Clarkson might be given yet another chance. The BBC put this to rest Wednesday when it sacked Clarkson and revealed the findings of its investigation. The report spelled out how Clarkson struck Tymon on the patio of a North Yorkshire (UK) hotel, leaving him with a bloodied, swollen lip. It was severe enough that the producer sought medical treatment. During and after the attack, Clarkson shouted expletives at Tymon and threatened to fire him. The noise carried into the hotel's dining room and even to a bedroom. Local police investigated the incident, but Tymon isn't pressing charges. The huge audience numbers, Clarkson's popularity and the high-octane excitement of Top Gear all melted away in the eyes of BBC director-general Tony Hall, who saw an attacker and a victim. "For me a line has been crossed," he said in a statement. "There cannot be one rule for one and one rule for another dictated by either rank, or public relations and commercial considerations." In that moment, Clarkson was the bad guy, though he was actually the one who reported it to the network and made repeated attempts to apologize to Tymon. He's also urged the media to leave the producer alone. Hall voiced regret in the statement that announced Clarkson's contract would not be renewed, but the BBC decided to move on. Rumors are swirling about possible replacements for Clarkson. The network says it wants to continue Top Gear in 2016 and is looking to air the rest of this season's episodes. Despite the controversy, the show has a global audience of 350 million viewers and is one of the BBC's most valuable properties. It's unclear what Clarkson's co-hosts, James May and Richard Hammond, will do, as their contracts were also reportedly up to be renewed.

2019 Chicago Auto Show photo gallery: All of the grilles

Fri, Feb 8 2019

Do you like trucks? How about grilles? Like really big, shiny, chromey, in-your-face, could-be-made-by-Broil-King grilles? Well, the Chicago Auto Show is the place to be. Traditionally known as the truck show of the annual auto show circuit (at least those covered by national media), Chicago has what seems like a small national park's worth of acreage devoted to both consumer and commercial trucks. From humble extended cab Ford Rangers to a mammoth F-650 with cherry picker sprouting from its aft quarters, there's bound to be a truck for everything. And they all have grilles. So above is our gallery devoted to them, because hell, why not? Should you want to know about the trucks attached to those grilles, check out our coverage below.

GM to add 1,200 workers at 2 Michigan factories

Sat, Feb 29 2020

DETROIT — General Motors is adding 1,200 jobs at two Michigan factories to build midsize SUVs and two new luxury sedans. GM said Friday that its Lansing Delta Township plant will get a third shift and 800 more workers to build the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave SUVs, which have three rows of seats. The Lansing Grand River plant will get a second shift and 400 more workers to build two new Cadillac sedans, the CT4 and CT5. Employees laid off at other GM factories will fill the new jobs first, then workers will be added, GM spokesman Dan Flores said. The company has not determined yet how many new people will be needed, he said. Both additional shifts will start working sometime between April and June, the company said. Lansing Delta Township now employs about 2,500 salaried and blue-collar workers, while the Grand River plant has 1,400. GM sold more than 147,000 Traverse SUVs in the U.S. last year, a 0.4% increase from 2018. Enclave sales were up 3% to just over 51,000, according to Autodata Corp. Related Video:
