1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne 4x4 Long Bed W/ 16,000 Original Miles on 2040-cars
Pagosa Springs, Colorado, United States
Up for Auction is a 1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne K 2500, 3/4 ton 4x4 pick-up with only 16,000 original miles on it. That's right 16,000 not 116,000 miles. I called and confirmed the mileage with the fire department that purchased and owned the truck This truck was ordered as a cab and chassis with no bed by a small Fire Department in Ohio. I have the original build sheet. My understanding is that this truck was used as a vegetation fire fighting truck with a flat bed on it. With a small skid mount pump and tank. Obviously it was not used very much. There is some surface rust on the frame none on the body. I replaced the single exhaust system with a dual exhaust system while retaining the stock exhaust manifolds. It has a stock 350 c.i. engine with a 4 barrel. carb. and the transmission is automatic 350 turbo-hydro-matic. The truck has power steering and power disc brakes from the factory. The dash is wood grained, with a stock in the dash tachometer, and gauges. No idiot lights. I replaced the stock AM radio with a Custom Auto Sound radio with USB, and MP-3 inputs. I also added kick panel speakers, and a new stock center dash speaker. The stock A/M radio goes with the truck also. The seat is in good condition with some stitching starting to break. So I installed an Indian style seat cover with front pouches. I purchased a used bed that was rust free with saddle tanks. The saddle tanks have not yet been installed but go with the truck. I then had any body work that was needed done. The body work was to fill the small holes that the fire department had put in it to mount antennas and a light a bar on the roof. I left the two Unitrol spot lights in place on the "A" pillars. I had the truck repainted the original colors with two stage paint. That way the bed and cab had a perfect match. I can not find any evidence of ever any collision damage. All glass appears to be original w-factory rear sliding window. The 16" steel wheels are original and I put 4 new 10 ply BF Goodrich Commercial tires on them. The spare is a used tire in good condition on a new LMC mag. wheel. I replaced the Alternator and removed the regulator. I installed the needed pigtail to eliminate the regulator. The original Alternator also goes with the truck. This truck spent it's life in a Fire Department Apparatus Garage heated and being wiped down daily. The reason for selling the truck is I have another project waiting to be finished. The truck runs and drives well and is currently registered in Colorado. The buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up in person. A $1000.00 deposit is required. I will not disclose the Reserve Price, so please don't ask. This Truck is a Real Head Turner, it gets attention everywhere I go. Good Luck Bidding!

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova
Tue, Dec 30 2014Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.

Nissan Leaf sales double Chevy Volt to close out winning 2014
Mon, Jan 5 2015To close out the year, sales of the two most-popular plug-in vehicles in the US kept going in the direction that they had been all year. The Chevy Volt dropped and the Nissan Leaf had another record month. Sound familiar? The Volt sold 1,490 units in December, a year-to-year drop of 37.7 percent. For all of 2014, Volt sales were down 18.6 percent to just 18,805 (from 23,094 in 2013). On the Nissan side of the ledger, the Leaf sold 3,102 units, up 22.7 percent from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. For the year, Nissan sold 30,200 Leafs, up 33.6 percent from the 22,610 sold in 2013. A few other things to note: For every month in 2014, the Leaf sold more than it did for the same month in 2013. For the Volt, this was only true for three months (April, May and July). Funnily enough, the Volt sold exactly 1,478 units in both March 2013 and 2014. The Volt's 2014 total was lower than both 2013 and 2012, while the Leaf had its best year ever. There were three months in 2014 when people bought at least twice as many Leafs than bought a Volt (September, November, December). The Leaf outsold the Volt every month in 2014. The closest gap was 215 units, in February. The biggest was 1,612, in December. As you've most likely seen, GM is still busy teasing the new Volt, which will make its official debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week. We'll have a more in-depth green car sales post up soon. <iframe embedded="true" "="" scrolling="no" src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oIuH75vaSHaaplD4x6gLsYjSsiN4oGmez1T63eaYdhY/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false" height="430"> Nissan celebrates 30,000 leaf sales in 2014, best year ever for sales of any plug-in vehicle NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Jan. 5, 2015) – Nissan, the world leader in electric vehicle sales, shattered yet another sales record with 30,200 LEAF vehicles sold in 2014, which is the first time any plug-in has sold more than 30,000 units in a single year. "Now in its fifth model year, Nissan LEAF is more popular than ever and continues to bring new buyers to Nissan," said Brendan Jones, director, Nissan Electric Vehicle Sales and Infrastructure. "From the beginning our vision was to bring electric vehicles to the mass market in a practical and fun-to-drive package, which is what makes Nissan LEAF the best-selling electric car in the world." Last month, Nissan sold 3,102 all-electric LEAFs, up 22.7 percent from the prior year and a December record.
Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
