 I am regretfully selling my beautiful 1935 Chevy pickup truck.  I found this truck on the old Chevy Stovebolt website while looking for a neat truck to purchase.  If you look on their website you can still see it as Ken Brown's 1935.  This truck runs excellent.  I am the third owner and have only had it a couple of years.  Ken purchased it from the original owner who was in The Dalles Oregon.  He kept in the garage for its entire life and only brought it out on occasion for parades.  It had a professional paint job sometime in the 1970s.  So you can see some flaws in the paint near the cracks.  53K original miles from what Ken told me, and I can believe it from the condition of everything.  It has the original in-line 6 cylinder 207 motor. This is a pretty rare year from what I know.  They only made around 6K of all models this year (EB).  The fenders are perfectly straight and there is hardly any rust color anywhere on this vehicle.  The black paint on the fenders has started cracking a bit, but still looks great.  It has brand new Coaker tires all the way around, new battery, coil, spark plugs, cap, rotter, and points to make it run like a top.  The carburetor was also cleaned.  It comes with a new set of wires that someone can put in if they like.  Trying to think about the flaws...there are really very very few.  One of the brake lights worked when I got it...I replaced the bulbs in both and now they don't work.  The headlights work..but I think only on low high beam so they will need to be changed out.  There is a crack in the windshield as well as the drivers side door window.  It is missing three hubcaps....those can be purchased new online, and I can give you the contact info. It originally did not come with the chevy symbols on the side of the hood.  Those came the next year, but were added at some point.  They are very classy, but could be removed.  It does not have a key, but rather has a on and off switch to bypass the key.  Just a small modification that was put in.  There is a heater in it, but I don't see any hoses hooked up...that would also be a very easy fix.  It comes with the front starter crank bar.  Ken said he used to start it that way....but I really don't know how.  It comes with the original motor and transmission and it runs great.  No smoking.  I think its a 4 speed, but I could be mistaken.  We are sorry to see it go, but we have to pay for a home remodel and this is a neat luxury item that we just can't keep.  Please let me know if you have any questions 208-661-3429 (Call or text).

Next Chevy Volt will be 2016 model and ride on new chassis

Fri, Mar 7 2014

What do we know about the 2016 Chevy Volt? Well, for now, all we can do is try to put the puzzle together without the box. Thankfully, a new batch of pieces has arrived from a new report in Edmunds, which says that the 2016 model year will introduce the second generation of a car that hasn't been dramatically updated since it went on sale in 2010. The new Volt is getting an "evolutionary styling change" and will ride on a new front-drive platform that has been developed by General Motors. GM's Kevin Kelly told AutoblogGreen that he has "no comment on future products," but he did acknowledge that Chevrolet is working on a second-generation Volt, "but I can't say anything about timing." Everybody already knew that a next-gen Volt is coming, so that's not a surprise. What we don't know is any real concrete information on the car itself. The few tidbits of information we do have help define the outlines of the next version of Chevy's halo car, but they're not confirmed yet. For the record, they range from the eye-raising (a $10,000 price drop) to the logical (20 percent more electric range). We can't see the whole picture yet, but the pieces do point to the 2016 Volt, which would be released next year sometime, being a much bigger deal than the last update, when the Volt's range was increased by three electric miles thanks to a battery capacity increase of 16 kWh to 16.5.

Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo could only work in a video game [w/video]

Thu, Nov 20 2014

There's something wondrous about the Vision Gran Turismo series of concepts that has let companies go wild with completely imaginary concepts for Gran Turismo. For Chevrolet's crack at the idea, it has taken a page out of its performance past with the Chaparral Can-Am racers of the '60s and '70s, with its designers having reinterpreted that period look for the future of motorsports as the Chaparral 2X. In real life, the 2X looks even better than in earlier photos. The design takes inspiration from someone in a flying suit with head down and arms outstretched, an influence you can really see that in the vehicle's shape. The driver lies facedown inside with the instruments projected onto a visor. Unfortunately, the powertrain here is a complete flight of fancy and works purely in the video game world. It imagines a laser propelled by lithium-ion batteries and an air-powered generation to make 900 horsepower. The 2X has a theoretical top speed of 240 miles per hour and hits 60 mph in a lightning-quick 1.5 seconds. Scroll down to see the concept on video with Chevrolet designers describing their inspiration and read the company's full announcement. It's also downloadable in Gran Turismo 6. Chevrolet to Show Chaparral Vision Gran Turismo Concept Boundary-pushing, Chevy-powered race cars changed motorsports design DETROIT – When racers Jim Hall and Hap Sharp founded Chaparral Cars in 1962, few could have guessed how they would shake up the conformities of the racing world – and fundamentally change it. Through pioneering applications of aerodynamics and aerospace technology, and a partnership with Chevrolet Research and Development, Chaparral Cars advanced the science of racing cars. It also triumphed on the track over well-established sports car companies from around the world, using Chevrolet horsepower. It was that spirit of innovation that inspired the Chevrolet Chaparral 2X VGT concept race car developed for the Vision Gran Turismo project, which celebrates the 15th anniversary of PlayStation® racing game Gran Turismo by inviting manufacturers to give fans a glimpse into the future of automotive design. It will debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show, Nov. 19, and gamers will be able race the Chaparral 2X VGT following the release of an online update for Gran Turismo 6 during the holiday season.

Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts

Fri, Jan 27 2017

The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that the manager of a collision and restoration business in Virginia admitted he helped misappropriate and sell vehicles and parts from the State Department. Specifically, he sold 12 Chevrolet Suburbans, a Hummer, and $7,500 worth of tires and wheels. He pled guilty to charges to commit theft of government property and wire fraud. He will likely see 18 to 20 months in prison, a fine of $4,000 to $40,000, and has already agreed to pay restitution of $416,020 and asset forfeiture of the same amount. According to the Department of Justice, the body shop manager, James Ratcliffe, worked with the owner of the business and a State Department official, both unnamed, to obtain the property. It started with the wheels and tires, which were delivered and sold on two occasions, one in 2011 and another in 2012. The trucks came later, and were sold throughout 2011 and 2013. Ratcliffe and the shop owner kept most of the profits, and shared some of the leftovers with the government official. In addition to the vehicles that were sold, the government official also gave Ratcliffe a pair of Suburbans for his own personal use. The Department of Justice estimated the total value of the SUVs at $96,400. In total, the group misappropriated $512,420 worth of property. Related Video:
