1979 Chevrolet C20 Cheyenne 3/4 Ton

If your first thought after seeing the lead picture is "Gee, I wonder what kind of gas mileage this very utility-oriented truck gets in and around town" (or something similarly pathetic), for the love of god DON'T MESSAGE ME. I don't want to hear about how you're looking for something to haul brush on the weekends or that you want to use it to get a load of organic compost for your herb garden. If that's you, you can't handle this truck. This thing runs on beer farts and broken dreams, so you can be damn sure it won't be caught hauling some wuss-ass brush around your well manicured lawn (that you don't maintain) over in Pemberton Heights, Tarrytown, or Westlake.

Two Points:

  • This is a real truck for that divorce you're inevitably going to go through. (Hauled me through mine)
  • This is a real truck to start and rev when your daughter comes home too late with that dipshit excuse for man, Ashby (or some other rich-ass, pretty-boy name). Just watch how fast he runs when those horror movie-esque dim yellow headlights hit the side of his well exfoliated face. (Yup, got a daughter too)

This is a real truck.

Mechanical

Starts every time and scares the hell out of the neighbors. The carburetor is new (600 CFM Edelbrock), the tranny has a shift kit, it has long tube headers and flowmasters, and the rear end is a positraction unit. The wheels are later model 16" with decent tires (still plenty of tread) and no, I don't have the original 16.5 inch wheels that were original equipment on the truck. Doesn't leak oil.  

Exterior

All original and ugly as shit. Straight and no cancer anywhere other than the two front corners of the hood, but ugly as shit.

Interior

Original and ugly as shit.  Seat foam is all there and no springs try to intrude into your ass, but the windshield has a crack and it's all ugly as shit.

Don't ask me if you can "buy it now" -- man-up and make me an offer if you want it so damn bad.  No reserve -- good luck.

GM diesel pickups first to undergo extra EPA, CARB testing

Tue, Sep 29 2015

The effects of Volkswagen's long-running diesel emissions evasion are starting to spill over to other automakers, but General Motors is taking things in stride. The 2.8-liter, four-cylinder Duramax in the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon is the first engine to get extra scrutiny by the Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board, Automotive News reports. Rather than just the usual in-lab test, it's also being checked on the road. However, the extra evaluation shouldn't have any impact on when the trucks with his mill hit dealers later this fall. "We're in our final stages of the EPA certification, and our launch is on track," Chevy spokesperson Otie McKinley tells Autoblog. The four-cylinder diesel in the trucks makes 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and the automaker is touting low NOx production. In the announcement for the Colorado's specs, the company calls it "the cleanest diesel truck engine ever produced by General Motors." The tech includes exhaust gas recirculation to lower combustion temperatures and improve emissions. There's also a urea tank like on the bigger diesels for full-size trucks, and it gets refilled in time with oil changes. An indication on the instrument panel lets drivers know when that's needed, too. Even with the more demanding testing, the company doesn't seem too worried about the four-cylinder passing. "Part of our development process is on-road and off-road [laboratory] testing," Scott Yackley, Chevy Trucks assistant chief engineer, said to Automotive News. In the wake of the VW scandal, the EPA has pledged more rigorous testing. Before, on-road emissions evaluations were largely limited to heavy-duty vehicles, but the agency has decided to apply the checks more often to other models. There's also now greater cooperation with Canadian authorities.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.
