 Up for sale is most likely the nicest original 1973 Chevrolet truck in existence today. This truck is a one owner vehicle with just under 21k original miles. This truck was purchased new at Lew Williams Chevrolet Center on Folsom in Sacramento, CA by Richard and Opal Peterson of Nevada City, CA. This truck has spent it's entire life in the dry California climate and has always been registered to one owner at one address. Many of the original documents from purchase in 1973 are pictured and included with the sale: original title, temporary registration, original registration card, financing paperwork/contract, owners manual, sales brochure, accessories brochure, and others as seen in pictures. This truck is in amazing original condition and is 100% original, down to the original factory installed tires and power beam headlights. The paint and body are in excellent condition with no blending, bodywork, metalwork, or replacement ever being done. The interior is in perfect original condition with the factory seat belts being wrapped in factory installed plastic and only recently being pulled out from behind the front seat where they have sat unused for all of these years. As you can see on the parts identification card on the inner fender that this truck is factory equipped with a 350 V8 engine, 4 speed compound low transmission, air conditioning, custom moldings, and set up for the camper shell from new. The camper shell and Barden rear bumper were produces and installed locally and have been on the truck since new. The condition of the bed is immaculate and appears to have never been used and if so, only slightly. The engine and drivetrain all work as they should on this truck. Recent work includes rebuilt original carb, fuel hoses replaced, and rear wheel cylinders rebuilt. All electrical works as it should as well. This truck runs and drives well for a museum piece, but if you were planning on using this as a daily driver I would suggest going over the usual wear items and fluids before making an attempt at using it daily. The last registration card in the truck was from 1989 and then it was registered non op with the DMV, so there is no back registration on it due for the new owner. The truck went out of daily use status before this time frame and was only recently uncovered and brought back out into the public spotlight. This truck has been kept in an insulated barn since new, and it shows. Both original license plates and dealer frames are included and in mint original condition. I also have a few pictures of the truck as it sat in the garage that I will include for the new owner. This is a true time capsule vehicle that deserves to be in a great collection of low mileage vehicles and be brought out occasionally for others to view and enjoy. Overall this is the nicest original Chevrolet truck of this year that I have ever seen and is probably the nicest and most original low mileage Chevrolet truck from this year anywhere in the world. Trucks like this just don't come around but once in a lifetime and you will be hard pressed to find another like it.

Meet the mother-daughter team that's worked on almost every Chevy Volt

Sun, May 11 2014

It's Mother's Day, and we're soft enough we love our mothers enough to share a new video from General Motors with you. In it, we meet Monique Watson (left) and Evetta Osbourne, a mother-daughter team that works at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly where GM makes the Chevy Volt (along with all of GM's other plug-in hybrids: the Opel Ampera, Holden Volt and Cadillac ELR). The two work side-by-side and have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on almost all of those vehicles - nearly 80,000 of them - since GM started making the pre-production Volts in 2009. In a prepared statement, Watson said that she likes working next to her mom, day in and day out, and they the two are totally in sync when it comes to putting the 400-pound, 16.5-kWh packs into the vehicle undersides. They two can also share stories throughout the day, and Watson said, "The arrangement has absolutely improved our relationship." Osborne started working at Detroit-Hamtramck in 1999, Watson since 2006. If you're driving a Volt today, you probably have them to thank for doing a bit of the work putting your car together. See a short video of them in action below. It's Always Mother's Day for Detroit-Hamtramck Duo Mother, daughter install lithium-ion battery pack in nearly all GM electric vehicles 2014-05-08 DETROIT – For Detroit resident Evetta Osborne, every day is Mother's Day. That's because she literally works side by side with her daughter, Monique Watson, at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. They have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on nearly every Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera, Holden Volt, and Cadillac ELR since production began. In fact, apart from vacation days and an occasional sick day, the mother-daughter duo has installed almost every battery pack since the Volt was in pre-production in 2009. The ELR launched earlier this year. All told – including Ampera – that's more than 80,000 electric vehicles. "We're a good team and our relationship is secondary when it comes to performing our jobs – but it's great to work alongside my daughter, said Osborne, a mother of five. Because the battery packs weigh more than 400 pounds each, automatic guided vehicles – robotic carts that use sensors to follow a path through the plant – deliver them just as the vehicle body structures glide into position overhead. The carts then lift the T-shaped packs, and Osborne and Watson guide them into the chassis and secure each one with 24 fasteners.

New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]

Tue, Dec 2 2014

The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios. "Forza Horizon 2" NAPA® Chassis Car Pack Now Available The roads and countryside of "Forza Horizon 2" beg for you to leave your mark on them. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One has arrived, bringing five amazing new cars to blaze trails, break records, or just enjoy a casual cruise in. First off, the new McLaren 650S Coupe's uncanny acceleration and preposterous top speed will satisfy the elitist in you. If you want get away from it all, there's no better way than in the Supercharged Land Rover. Need muscle? Take the classic form of the Buick GSX or the later model Monte Carlo SS for a spin. We all need more wagon in our lives and the Audi RS6 is ready to run around town or serve up surprises at the track. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One is available today for $5 in the Xbox Live store. Starting today, also available this month for free for all Xbox One players is the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8.
