1977 Chevy Cheyenne Pickup on 2040-cars
Spartanburg, South Carolina, United States
|
This truck belonged to my Grandfather who bought it new in 1977 from Burwell Chevrolet in Spartanburg, SC. He had an older, 60's model Chevrolet truck and someone ran a red light and totaled it so he bought this one. I rode in it many times as a teenager and remember the day he bought it. He had a small farm and worked at a local cotton mill and drove this truck to work everyday. After he passed away it became my fathers who drove it very little. For several years the truck sat outside and caused the paint to fade on the top of the truck. We took it to a local detail shop who did a great job cleaning it up but their buffer almost burned through the paint on two spots on the hood. You can see these spots in the pictures. The paint is all original and in pretty good shape. I tried to take as many pictures as possible. There are small black specks on the hood of the truck from where is sat outside, again, recently. It looks like something that fell out of the trees. I waxed it and many of them came off. I think some good polishing compound with some elbow grease would get the rest off. The door frame on the drivers and passengers side have significant scratching. Again, I tried to take detailed pictures. The interior is in great shape. Daddy thinks it is the original seat cover is original but I seem to remember my Grandfather having it re-covered. Regardless it is very clean and nice inside. Everywhere I drive the truck people comment on it and how good it looks to be so old. It runs good. Within the last two years Daddy has had significant work done including: New radiator, New AC components, New hoses, New shocks, and a New carburetor. Take a look at the pictures and if you need more let me know. If you have FaceTime I would be happy to do a live walk around and show you everything in as much detail as possible and answer any questions.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
Nissan recalls 3.5 million vehicles over airbag sensor
Sat, Apr 30 2016Nissan is recalling 3.53 million vehicles globally – 3.2 million in the United States – because the front passenger airbag may or may not deploy properly in the event of a crash. In affected vehicles, the occupant sensing system may not properly register a person sitting in the passenger seat. Passenger-side airbags in roughly 622,000 Nissan Sentra models built between 2013 and 2016 may deploy in crashes when they shouldn't, such as when a child is in the seat. 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, and LEAF, 2013-2017 Nissan Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60 and Q50, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Chevrolet City Express and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles suffer from the opposite problem. In those models, the airbag may not deploy when it is supposed to. Nissan is aware of at least three crashes where airbags in one of the above models did not function properly, resulting in "moderate injuries." There have already been four recalls since 2013 for similar issues in Nissan vehicles. If you own one of these cars, expect a letter from Nissan in short order (or from GM if you own a Chevy City Express). Related Video: RECALL Subject : Passenger Air Bag may not Deploy due to OCS Error , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: APR 26, 2016 NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V244000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Manufacturer: Nissan North America, Inc. SUMMARY: Nissan North America, Inc. (Nissan) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Nissan Maxima, 2013-2016 Nissan Altima, NV200, LEAF and Sentra, 2013-2017 Nissan Pathfinder, 2014-2016 Nissan NV200 Taxi, Infiniti QX60 and Q50, 2014-2017 Nissan Rogue, 2015-2016 Nissan Murano, Chevrolet City Express and 2013 Infiniti JX35 vehicles. In these vehicles, the front seat passenger Occupant Classification System (OCS) may incorrectly classify an adult passenger as a child or classify the seat as empty despite it being occupied. As a result, the passenger frontal air bag may be turned off and not deploy in the event of a crash. CONSEQUENCE: If the passenger frontal air bag does not deploy as intended in the event of a crash, the passenger is at an increased risk of injury. REMEDY: Nissan will notify their owners. Chevrolet City Express owners will be notified by General Motors.
