This truck has had loads of work done. I bought it with many improvements in place. It has a 1990 Chevy 350 V-8 engine with fuel injection. It runs on the computer that matches the engine, using the proper wiring harness, including a check engine light for diagnosing the engine, a serpentine belt system but no catalytic converter. The transmission is a 700 R4 4 speed with overdrive, and it is recently rebuilt and runs smooth. It has dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. The truck runs great and gets way better mileage than the original carb set up. However, the engine could easily be changed back to a carb set up, if desired.

Power steering and power brakes provide a nice driving experience. This truck goes down the road with little effort and no wander. The transfer case is original, with a new seal and fluid recently installed. The engine was just gone through and given a clean bill of health with plenty of compression. (Currently dating a mechanic of about 40 years, he wanted to make sure I am driving a very reliable rig, so he went through the engine and fixed a few minor things on the truck. Anyone who is seriously interested in buying this truck, I will gladly have him talk with you, and he can answer any questions you may have.) The gearing is 3:73 front and rear. It has the big Eaton rear end and driveline. The rear is traction lock or limited slip based upon the jacking warning decal on the back of the cab by the jack. The truck has manual locking hubs, that were new when I bought it. The lift is a 4" Rancho heavy duty spring lift, and the shocks are new, with duals on the front. The tires are Pro Comp All Terrain M + S LT315-75R16. They are mounted on aluminum Sawblade style wheels. The interior was originally blue, but now has black carpet and upholstery. The interior is in great condition. The dash is pristine. The dash remains uncut, and I had a professionally installed Custom Autosound stereo with an iPod connection put in. They also installed Kenwood 6x9's in the doors for great sound. The headliner and visors are in great condition. There is a gun rack in the rear window....being Idaho, I decided to leave it. It is a handy place to hang a hat, rope or jacket, or maybe a fishing rod. Or, you could easily remove the gun rack. The rear window is a slider. The heater core was just replaced.

While this is not quite a show truck, it is in excellent shape. There are some minor chips and dings but the paint shines. The body is rot free. I have spent plenty of time rolling around underneath and this truck is in great shape. The rocker panels were replaced before I purchased the truck. The windows need the new weatherstripping, which I have and have not had the time to install. All that will go with the truck. There are two side tanks in place, but not operational. They can be put online with a thorough cleaning and some simple fuel line adjustments. There is already a tank switch in the cab. I have the under truck switch to set this all up....also will go with the truck.

This truck is very dependable. All mechanicals have been gone through and redone as needed by myself and the prior owner. It could be used as a daily driver, but is way better looking and far more fun to drive. I would not have any reservations about taking it on a serious road trip. I have had many people interested in this truck, and lots have expressed interest, but many would like to see it with a bigger engine or some other setup. A fuel injected 72 is not a common find. It did originally have a 400, and the prior owner did the engine replacement for some reason. But, if the buyer would desire a bigger engine, I have a 454 engine in another truck along with the Turbo 400 tranny that could be used in this 72. It was my mechanic boyfriend's idea to combine the two trucks. I have never known of a truck that someone did not think could be improved, That said, I would be willing to let both trucks go to the buyer who wants them for the reserve price. The 72 could be driven until the engine and tranny on the other truck were gone through and ready to install. The other truck is an 89 GMC one-ton, with most of its value in the engine and tranny. But, it is currently quite drivable itself, with its only issues being wiring ground problems from prior stereo installation by prior owner, and it is in need of serious TLC in looks. But, the two trucks combined would be totally fantastic.

I purchased this 72 truck out of McMinnville, Oregon in 2007. It has a state issued VIN from Washington state. The title is clear and has no brands. I hold a clean and clear Idaho title for this truck. There are a whole lot of good points to this truck, but serious interested parties would do best to check it out in person. I will be glad to answer any questions....so PLEASE ask..... and will put you in touch with my mechanic for more specific details, as needed. I had planned to keep this truck forever, but I am now helping to raise my granddaughters and I farm. Sadly, I don't have the time or the use for my 72 anymore. And I only use the 89 for dump runs.....a 454 is wasted for that use. The 89 also has a clear Idaho title. Contact is best by email, since I farm I often miss calls. Give me the best way to contact you, and if by phone, give best times to call you. Thank you.

On May-22-13 at 23:25:44 PDT, seller added the following information:

Revisions - The listing above cannot be corrected. It will only allow me to add. Therefore, the truck is not a Silverado, but does have Cheyenne trim on the interior. It also does not have an Eaton rearend, but rather the Dana 60 as was original for that truck. I apologize for the errors, but I was copying from the listing from which I purchased the truck, and it was incorrect. Sorry for any confusion.

On May-23-13 at 10:51:26 PDT, seller added the following information:

OK........I need to stop listening to truck people. Looked it up myself, and the rear end is indeed an Eaton rear end. All I know is the truck runs and handles great and has been a pleasure to own and drive.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

Chevy Spark EV could be coming to Midwest later this year

Tue, Jun 10 2014

Ohio is not known as a hotbed of EV sales – if anything, the state is a bit anti-EV, thanks to a legislative fight against Tesla's direct sales model Â– but it might be on Chevrolet's short list to expand the market for the Spark EV in the near future. The latest official GM press release on the battery-powered Spark still says the car is "available exclusively in California and Oregon," but Hybrid Cars found four Ohio dealerships that list a Spark EV on their websites, with hints the the car will be coming to the Midwest state by the end of the summer. See, for example, here, here, here and here. But that's probably not going to happen, according to Randy Fox, GM communication's manager for passenger cars. Fox told AutoblogGreen that, "At this point in time, we don't have any official plans to expand the Spark EV beyond California and Oregon." The reason is that California and Oregon have the infrastructure to support EVs, Fox said, and GM wants to be able to support its EV customers. "We are continuing to look at other options," he said. "The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure" Â– John O'Dell John O'Dell, a senior editor at Edmunds.com, told AutoblogGreen that, "It makes sense for [GM] to expand sales and it makes sense to do it in a quiet manner, to get these vehicles on the road. The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure. If someone in my neighborhood has one and he likes it, then maybe I can trust him. So it's important to get these vehicles on the road." Chevy sold 182 Spark EVs last month, a significant increase over the 98 sold in April. That's still small potatoes compared to the 3,000+ Nissan Leaf EVs sold last month, but making the electric Spark available in Ohio, say, or GM's home state of Michigan could boost those numbers. AutoblogGreen called a few dealerships in Michigan to see what they had heard. One salesman said he didn't think GM had started production yet but the inventory manager for another dealership said the Spark EV is scheduled to arrive in the Midwest in "roughly the fourth quarter." What would GM's incentive be to offer the car in markets outside of California where it can gain ZEV credits with each sale?

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
