Letting my factory 1970 Chevrolet 3/4 ton K20 4x4 go. Factory V8/4 Speed truck. I've had the truck about a year and it is in mostly original condition.  Never lifted or modified.  Just a nice old solid 4x4 and they are getting harder to find.  Looking to make room for a new project and pay some bills.  That being said I may entertain a trade.   

Paint/Body- 100% rust free.  Truck is extremely solid for a 69-72.  Roof and rain gutters are excellent.  Floors, cab corners and kick panels are solid.  Cowl area is clean.  Bed floor and front panel are straight and rust free.  I have looked for bubbles, rust or heavy bondo and have not found any.  Truck has had the rockers and two of the cab supports replaced in the past.  Paint is nice and body is very straight.  Has two small dings by the cab light.  Bed is coated with a rhino liner but, is damaged in some areas and inner wheel well have some dents.  Glass is all good except the windshield.  Glass company cracked it during install.  Firewall and interior retain original paint and chalk markings.  The weatherstripping in the door jambs and window felts are all new.  New door handles, bumper, tailgate trim, tail lamp lenses,  NOS grille inner and outer. Tailgate is mint.  No dents or rust. 

Suspension/Wheels/Tires-Truck has very rare 16.5x8.75 wheels. It took me forever to find these and they look absolutely killer. They were painted the same white as the cab top and rear bumper. Has very nice Cooper 33x12.50's mounted on them. I have the factory rear caps installed and may have the fronts by end of auction.  Truck has front power disc brakes and power steering.  New warn locking hubs. 4.10 axles.  Absolute stump puller.  Frame was coated with POR15 and underside of bed was coated with bedliner.  Overall the underside is pretty clean.  The rear leafs have helper springs installed and the truck has a very stout stance.  Drives down the road like an old 4x4.  Has a little play in the steering but, I've driven much newer trucks that have the same play.  

Engine/Transmission-Truck has a V8 engine out of an 80's Van.  Runs strong.  Edelbrock intake and carb. Rams horn exhaust manifolds.  High energy ignition.  New starter, battery, battery cables.  SM465 4 speed transmission. NP205 transfer case is gear driven not chain.  Sounds good but, if I were to keep it I would change the exhaust out for something quieter and ran all the way out the back.  

Interior-Not much to say here. Original paint on the inside of the cab.  The inside of the doors have been resprayed and look good.  Rubber mat does not fit well and I would replace with a better one if I were to keep it.  Dash pad and sun visors are excellent.  New dash bezel and lense, new shift boots, brake pedal covers, white arm rest, radio delete plate. Seat has been recovered with a factory houndstooth cover and new foam.  The dash lights work but, most of the factory gauges still need to be hooked up.  

Overall a nice solid 3/4 ton  K20.  These are hard to find in any condition and this one has a great look with the color combo.  Willing to look at trades and I will assist in shipping this truck anywhere.  Clear title in my name.  $500 deposit required  within 24 hours.  Full payment within 5 days.  Can store the truck as long as it is paid for.  Sold as is where is.   photo IMG_1784_zpsd95c0c50.jpg  photo IMG_1766_zps5499e52c.jpg  photo IMG_1767_zpse33cb123.jpg  photo IMG_1768_zps07bbc1d5.jpg  photo IMG_1774_zps1e0f730a.jpg  photo IMG_1785_zps2c26d867.jpg  photo IMG_1794_zps17c1effd.jpg  photo IMG_1792_zps787f9bb5.jpg  photo IMG_1791_zps737bc2bb.jpg  photo IMG_1790_zps23892d77.jpg  photo IMG_1765_zps5ab28d6c.jpg  photo IMG_1758_zps7067bea0.jpg  photo IMG_1752_zps1afdbbd2.jpg  photo IMG_1751_zps0ac80d39.jpg  photo IMG_1750_zps06485c91.jpg  photo IMG_1749_zps36fd1f35.jpg  photo IMG_1748_zps4051be8d.jpg  photo IMG_1747_zpsce6a3500.jpg  photo IMG_1741_zps7a465eca.jpg  photo IMG_1740_zps408769ab.jpg  photo IMG_1739_zps7998e86c.jpg  photo IMG_1737_zps537a51f1.jpg  photo IMG_1742_zps22dd6670.jpg  photo IMG_1760_zpsfa5bb37f.jpg  photo IMG_1761_zpsccd31f73.jpg  photo IMG_1763_zps955f14af.jpg  photo IMG_1764_zpsf71532be.jpg  photo IMG_1770_zpsbdfd66f7.jpg  photo IMG_1772_zps1b04e7e7.jpg  photo IMG_1781_zps7a877d5d.jpg  photo IMG_1780_zps4e830161.jpg  photo IMG_1779_zps9bb0b5a3.jpg  photo IMG_1778_zps18d714ed.jpg  photo IMG_1777_zpscc8cfc5a.jpg  photo IMG_1776_zps501e0cfb.jpg  photo IMG_1789_zps9d842dfe.jpg  photo IMG_1787_zps6275fbb7.jpg  photo IMG_1759_zps83b765b5.jpg  photo IMG_1757_zps8636bdf7.jpg  photo IMG_1756_zps73fdecc9.jpg  photo IMG_1755_zps2bf3f1e4.jpg  photo IMG_1753_zpsd89fc533.jpg  photo IMG_1735_zps14768e43.jpg  photo IMG_1733_zps7bebf288.jpg  photo IMG_1732_zpsb9cd25a0.jpg  photo IMG_1730_zpsbbb1ee96.jpg  photo IMG_1729_zps6289e571.jpg  photo IMG_1743_zpsc921bb4e.jpg

GM natural gas-powered vans recalled due to possible leak

Wed, Sep 24 2014

General Motors is recalling almost 3,200 of its compressed-natural-gas powered utility vans because of possible leaks. GM and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice last week saying that 3,196 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana CNG vans are on recall, though no accidents have been reported due to the possible issue. The recall is specifically for vans for model years ranging from 2011 to 2014. The recall stems from a potential leak from the compressed natural gas high-pressure regulator, and such a leak could cause a fire or explosion. GM will replace the vehicles' high-pressure regulator in order to fix the problem, will do it free of charge and is instructing owners to contact Chevrolet or GMC customer service to arrange for the parts replacement. Utility vehicle makers like General Motors have pushed for fleet sales of CNG-powered vans and trucks for the past few years and have touted them for their cheaper refueling costs relative to standard gasoline, not to mention the fact that natural gas can be readily sourced from throughout North America (thanks, fracking). According to CNGPrices.com, compressed natural gas sells for about $2.22 a gallon, on average, while the AAA is pegging the average price of gas at $3.34 a gallon. NHTSA has posted information on the recall here. Featured Gallery News Source: NHTSA via Reuters Green Chevrolet GM GMC Natural Gas Vehicles CNG gmc savana

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]

Wed, 15 May 2013

We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."

Junkyard Gem: 1980 Chevrolet LUV Mikado

Sat, Oct 9 2021

During the 1970s and into the 1980s, each member of the Detroit Big Three imported Japanese small pickups and sold them with Ford (Mazda Proceed), Dodge/Plymouth (Mitsubishi Forte), or Chevrolet (Isuzu Faster) badges here. Ford developed the Ranger and killed the Courier for 1983 (though Americans could still buy the Mazda-badged version all the way through 1993), while The General axed the LUV after the S-10 debuted in the 1982 model year. Isuzu sold the same truck as the P'up through 1987, though, and we might as well follow up our recent P'up Junkyard Gem with its LUV predecessor. LUV stood for Light Utility Vehicle, and I've managed to spot a handful in the boneyards over the years. This one now resides in a yard in northeastern Colorado. The Mikado trim package included striped seat upholstery and a sporty steering wheel, plus these cool dash badges. As far as I can tell, no LUV Mikado advertising featured any Gilbert and Sullivan tunes. This one is fairly rusty for Front Range Colorado, and it has endured a bed swap from some other small truck. The engine is the 75-horse Isuzu 1.8-liter. Members of this engine family went into everything from Chevy Chevettes to Isuzu Troopers in the United States. Very unusually for a small pickup during the Malaise Era, this one has a luxurious automatic transmission. Acceleration must have been a leisurely affair in this truck. Air conditioning? Unheard of! Someone stuck every one of their lunchtime apple stickers on the driver's door. After 41 years of work, this truck is done. Come on strong in a LUV of your own!
