The paint job was done about 6 years ago, prior to me buying it.  It is a PPG two stage paint, but not a show paint job.  As I said, I drive the truck every day, so it has a scratch here and there.  However, the truck is from the desert, and not a rust bucket.  The guy I bought the truck from, bought it from the original owner, who had bought it at the local dealership.  The truck was not driven a ton as the 142,000 are original, and this town was out in the middle of nowhere.  I bought it due to the fact it had not been cut-up, and all of the original stuff was there.  When we pulled the motor to rebuild it, we could not believe all of the original parts down to the 1968 water pump and alternator made it all those years.  The truck is not perfect, but turns a lot of heads, and very close to all original.  If I were able to keep the truck, I would probably have the paint color sanded and rebuild the front suspension.  The truck drives great, but everything else on the truck is new.  I am selling as I bought a new truck to drive every day, and I have a couple of other classic cars.  I need to pull a trailer sometimes, and I do not want to destroy this truck.  I would not be afraid to drive this truck across country, it is very dependable.  The engine rebuild was done about 6k miles ago, by a very reputable local engine rebuilder.  The 327 and original quadrajet purrs like a kitten.  I put a new master cylinder on it, but had the original rebuilt that comes with it.  It has a custom fit cover that comes with it also.  I have title in hand, and a binder full of receipts the new owner can have.

Please contact me with questions, and feel free to see the truck in person.

As with all 45 year old cars, there is no warranty, and buyer buys as is, and responsible for shipping.  (although I will help if needed to be at a terminal, etc.)

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.

Recharge Wrap-up: EVs poll well in Portland, Tesla seeks office space

Tue, Aug 5 2014

In a poll of drivers in Portland, more than 80 percent said they would be driving an EV in the next 10 years if they weren't already. The poll was small and not scientific, with just 218 votes cast, but it does reflect a slice of a certain population with changing attitudes toward electric mobility, and 80 percent is an impressive figure. Additionally, 43 percent of respondents planned to have an EV in the next five years, and only 18 percent said they prefer gasoline-powered vehicles. With EVs in many ways repeating the adoption process that hybrids went through a decade ago, the five- or ten-year timeframe for more widespread use seems only natural. Read more at the Portland Business Journal. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee parks like an idiot, or rather, his security detail does. His Chevrolet Volt has been ticketed for parking six times since he took office. Granted, those street-sweeping signs are tough to keep track of, but his car has been photographed blocking at a bus stop while grabbing a burrito (who hasn't sinned in the name of a delicious burrito?), and was even caught parked in a crosswalk. The tickets were all dismissed. Read more from the SF Gate. Tesla is looking for office space in Silicon Valley. As the electric car company continues to search for a place to build its $4- to $5-billion battery Gigafactory, it also needs some real estate to expand its operations near its Palo Alto home. Tesla has expanded from 3,000 to 6,000 California-based employees since the end of 2012, and plans to add 500 more by the end of the year. It is currently looking for 200,000 to 300,000 square feet of office space close to its Fremont factory, according to sources in the real estate industry.
