Up for sale is a 1961 V6 Chevy stepside truck. This is the three speed manual transmission shortbed model. A great project truck in great condition, so you can skip all the hard and expensive work of disassembling, replacing, and rebuilding the entire thing.

Front tires are brand new with only four or five miles on them but the rear tires are due for replacement.

It used to be a farm truck, and has also been on a few hunting trips as well so it has undoubtedly seen some wear. Despite the appearance this is a great little truck and fully capable of being so for many years to come, and does not have as much rust as appears, the pictures don't do justice. Before being painted black, the original color appears to have been a burnt orange brown and this is not rust. It seems the engine may not have had as many miles on it as many trucks that age. It is already in much better condition than it was when I found it. Drives very smoothly but may overheat on extremely hot days if driving at high speeds.

I originally intended to fully restore this but a change in jobs and lack of time and money has prevented me from this. It is currently parked on the street outside my front lawn as I lack a garage, and I would rather it be where it is protected and getting fixed up rather than left rotting in the elements, it's just too pretty and unique to be left to that.

The engine is in very good and running shape, with no appearance of rust damage or bad fixing jobs. All the seals are good, and after installing new points, plugs, starting mechanism, battery, and tune up the thing started right up.

The brakes are stuck! I haven't had the time or means to fix that, so I recommend towing it home, if not on your own than for hire.

The only thing that needs a lot of work is the exterior, particularly around the doors where there is significant rust and damage from neglect and shoddy repair.

The original wood bed is in definite need of replacement, rotted out and covered by a piece of ply board that is itself rotted out.

This predates power steering and power brakes, you'll have to put a little push into maneuvering it. It also lacks air conditioning, and originally a radio, this is a very basic old truck. Currently, there is a radio that was retrofitted by a previous owner, but no speakers connected to it. The fan is not working but after being professionally checked almost everything, including the heater are perfectly intact and a very easy fix.

Transport or shipping is NOT included in the price or listing, and I'm not sure how to go about reaching businesses that specialize in this, so you'll have to arrange that on your own. There are quite a few websites that offer price compare and allow bids from multiple services to ship it to you for the desired rates.

If you have any further questions or are nearby and would like to schedule a time to take a look at this truck yourself contact *Jules Leroy, 406-694-2824* and I will try to answer as best I can. However, I am not an expert on old vehicles and vehicle repair, much of the work done I had paid for by a someone who owns a truck of the same vintage and model and knew what they were doing.

I would like to further add: vehicle comes with a title, which will be mailed directly to winning bidder after payment.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt named KBB "Best Buy," slow BMW i3 sales in Germany

Wed, Nov 19 2014

The Chevrolet Volt has been awarded Kelley Blue Book's Electric/Hybrid Car Best Buy for 2015. KBB cited the car's electric commuter capabilities, extended range, acceleration, design and overall value as reasons to place it above the Nissan Leaf, BMW i3 and Toyota Prius. It works well in the real world, and doesn't leave drivers with range anxiety. Plus, it's comfortable, and a fun car to drive, according to KBB. Read more at Kelley Blue Book. The BMW i3 is seeing slow sales in Germany. BMW has sold about half the number of i3s it expected in its home country, with about 1,900 sold in the first nine months. BMW projected sales of 5,000 to 6,000 in the first year. BMW partly blames long shipping times for the slow sales, and the company is offering incentives in hopes of getting more people to adopt the electric car. In the US, BMW sold more than 1,000 units each month between August and October. Read more at Green Car Reports. Audi is pursuing new carbon-neutral synthetic fuels - or e-fuels - such as Audi e-diesel. Audi's newest project uses electrolysis of water to create hydrogen, which it then reacts with CO2 extracted from the air. The result is a liquid - called Blue Crude - full of energy from hydrocarbon compounds. The Blue Crude can then be converted into a sulfur-free synthetic diesel called e-diesel. This e-diesel can be used as a drop-in fuel, blended into fossil diesel for a more renewable fuel. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Uber is partnering with Spotify to allow passengers to choose what music they listen to during their ride. Users will be able to choose their own playlist that will be ready and playing for them when they are picked up. It offers a more personalized experience from the ride-hailing service, which, according to Uber CEO Travis Kalanick, is "nirvana" for music lovers. Paying Spotify users will be able to use the feature initially in London, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Nashville, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Stockholm, Sydney and Toronto.

NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles

Thu, Nov 27 2014

US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.

The other Luxury Green Car finalists included the BMW x5 xDrive40e, Lexus RX 450h, Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid, and the Mercedes-Benz C350e. Finally, the Audi A3 e-tron, BMW 330e, Toyota Prius, and Volvo XC90 T8 were the runners up for Connected Green Car. 2016 Connected Green Car of the Year, Green SUV of the Year, Luxury Green Car of the Year Winners Announced WASHINGTON, Jan. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal has announced the winners of its prestigious 2016 Green Car Awards at a press conference held today during the Washington Auto Show's Public Policy Day in Washington DC. Distinguished as 2016 Luxury Green Car of the Year™ is Volvo's new XC90 T8. The Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid tops the field as 2016 Connected Green Car of the YearÂ™ and Honda's HR-V earns Green Car Journal's 2016 Green SUV of the YearÂ™. "These are stand-out vehicles in an increasingly sophisticated and appealing field of 'green' cars," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. "To make the cut as a finalist is a real achievement in itself considering the considerable competition in the market today. Rising to the top as award winners means these three exceptional vehicles set a benchmark in the auto industry's effort to create vehicles that are desirable and efficient, while also achieving environmental milestones so important for our driving future." The Green Car Awards are a key feature of The Washington Auto Show, the "public policy show" on the auto show circuit and one that puts a priority on safety and sustainability. "We are extremely proud of our partnership with Ron Cogan, whose eagerly anticipated suite of awards help shape the national conversation on the innovations that will drive our industry and country forward," said Geoff Pohanka, chairman of The Washington Auto Show.
