1963 Shortbed Original 283 V8 3 Spd Blue And White Fleetside Original Patina on 2040-cars
|
Up for bid is an ALL ORIGINAL 1963 shortbed Chevy Pickup. This truck is an original survivor that I purchased from the 2nd owner, who only had it about 1.5 years. This truck was purchased new in 1963 from Harvey's Chevrolet in Radford, Va. The truck has been in Va since it was purchased new. I have fixed and replaced many of the mechanical pieces on this truck so it could once see life on the road again.
NEW Parts include:
This truck sat in a garage for 19 years after the original owner passed until the family sold it to the gentleman I purchased it from. The motor, transmission, and rearend are original to the truck. The wood in the bed is original and is still solid! I have the original springs and also the other 3 original steel wheels that go with the truck. Interior is original including the fuel tank, that was very clean! This truck runs very good and I have driven it to several car shows over 200 miles from my house. The paint is also original, with some older touch up repairs. As with all original 51 year old vehicles, it does have a few issues. Front lower fenders on both sides were repaired years ago and the bondo is cracking. Truck had an old repair in the rockers at some time during its life. One cab brace on passenger side is rusted and should be replaced. Original seat is torn. Rubber floor mat has a small tear (it is original). Front bumper is bent very little. Turn signal switch needs replacing. Heater core is bad and will need replaced, it is the deluxe heater. Heater control knobs are broken. Engine ticks a little when cold, but goes away when engine warms up. Speedometer does not work correctly. This truck is a very good truck for a full restoration, or continue to drive and enjoy it like it is. Truck has no warranties implied or expressed and will be sold AS IS, where is. $1000 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of auction close and truck will need to be picked up within 7 days of auction end, unless other arrangements are made with me. The remainder of payment will be cash and the truck or title will not leave my possession until all money is paid in full. Any delivery fees will be at the cost of the new buyer. |

GM recalling 1.4 million older vehicles for oil leak fire risk
Tue, Oct 27 2015General Motors is recalling 1,411,332 older vehicles with its 3.8-liter V6 yet again due to a fire risk. Specifically, there are 1,283,340 of them in the US, and the affected models are the: 1997-2004 Pontiac Grand Prix 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala 1998-1999 Chevrolet Lumina 1998-2004 Chevrolet Monte Carlo 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue 1997- 2004 Buick Regal The fault with these vehicles is that oil can drip onto the hot exhaust manifold during hard braking, which can potentially cause of fire. In the last six years, there have 19 reported minor injuries from this problem but no crashes or fatalities, according to the company. Spokesperson Alan Adler also told Autoblog: "GM has reports of 1,345 fires in vehicles that were repaired under two previous recalls for this issue." At this time, GM is still developing a remedy for the problem. According to Adler, the company advised owners to park these vehicles outside for the previous recalls. "The cars can be safely driven. In cases where a customer reported an engine fire while driving, smoke was reported, which would be an indication of a malfunction," he said. This is GM's fourth recall for this problem since 2008, according to The Detroit News. At one point it was believed that aging valve cover gaskets allowed the oil to leak out and drip onto the manifold. A campaign in 2009 covered nearly 1.5 million of these models through the 2003 model year for the same issue. At the time, dealers installed new spark plug wire retainers as a fix.

GM is working on a remedy. The company is aware of post-repair fires in some vehicles but no crashes or fatalities. There have been 19 reported minor injuries over the last six years. These vehicles with 3.8-liter V6 3800 engines are affected: 1997-2004 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2000-2004 Chevrolet Impala, 1998-1999 Chevrolet Lumina and 1998-2004 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 1998-1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue and 1997-2004 Buick Regal.

Mon, 21 Jan 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns.

Chevy Gives World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner A Recalled Truck
Thu, Oct 30 2014Last night must have seemed like a dream come true for San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner. He helped his team win its third World Series Championship in four years, earned MVP status and was given a brand new 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. Bumgarner might want to hold off on taking a victory lap in his new truck however. The Colorado is currently under recall. General Motors issued a stop-delivery order earlier this month to fix the truck's air bag connectors, which were wired improperly during the manufacturing process. The faulty wiring can cause the system to deploy incorrectly. Only 138 customers have received their Chevrolet trucks, the rest were caught and repaired either in the plant or on their way to dealerships and show rooms. Recalls Chevrolet world series
