I am selling this for a friend. His name is Wayne, and his number is (708) 557-2300. Please do not email me with any questions. Give Wayne a call. This 1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne Super Custom Camper Special is a true survivor, oiriginally from Idaho. It is truly a top-quality, highly original driver that has been very well taken care of, and is up to any task. The certified actual mileage is just 87,800. Vehicle is driven during the week, so a few mils will be added. Certification of mileage will be provided upon sale. Look at the list of items this truck came with from the factory: *402 Big Block, Original motor, all original specs. *Power Disc Brakes, rotors and pads show very little wear *Power Steering *Factory Air Conditioning, recently serviced, very cold *Automatic Trans. Turbo 400 *Factory Dual Exhaust *Chrome and Stainless Trim options *Factory tilt steering wheel, a very rare option In addition, the following has recently been completed: *New Tires, Hoses, Belts, etc *Beautiful, aftermarket 16" wheels. Tailpipes replaced with original equipment equivalent. Complete tune-up, plus new filters. You do not need to do anything to this truck but drive it, and keep it clean. This is a Fantastic Cruze 'N Use Classic. You can show it very well in local shows, and be very proud as the owner. This truck was re-painted at some point in the original factory color scheme, Lemon-Lime with white. It was a high-quality paint job, and the color really pops, much better than the pics show. It is showing just a few very small spots of buff-through on a couple of the sharp edges. The pictures taken could not make it show up, but if you are very close to the truck, and looking for it, you can see it. This is not something anyone would see unless they are really examining the paint. With the exception of the seats, the interior is in fully original condition. Door panels, headliner, dash, steering wheel are all original. The seats have been recovered in a top-quality material similar, though not identical, to the original factory seats. Cushions/bolsters were replaced at that time, so the seats have provide a lot of support, very comfortable. There is no rust perforation anywhere on this vehicle. All lights and gauges function as they should. THIS TRUCK DRIVES LIKE A DREAM! Straight down the road with no shimmy or wandering, no vibration anywhere, at any speed. Stops quickly in a straight line, thanks to the rare Factory Power Disc Brakes. It handles very well, corners like a modern truck. With the factory 402 big block, you have plenty of torque to get you moving quickly. The engine does not overheat, or burn oil. The transmission shifts smoothly, with no unusual noises. The bed has no dents, and is covered in a nice Silver-Gray spray-on liner that is a couple years old, and in good shape. Look closely at the pics to see the perfect sheet metal throughout the body of this truck. The truck, and it's owner, Wayne, reside in Illinois. He has owned it over a year, and, and has driven it regularly during that time. He is a knowledgeable and detail-oriented auto enthusiast. He put much more time and money into it than he will ever get out. He is only selling it because his plans have changed, and he needs the money to complete other restorations. This truck was not bought with the idea of being a "flip". It was bought to fix up as a fine classic vehicle, which it now is. Wayne can be reached at (708) 557-2300. Be sure to have a list of questions ready, as he will answer anything you ask about the truck. Please do not call after 9:00 p.m., Central Time.

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.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
Meet the mother-daughter team that's worked on almost every Chevy Volt
Sun, May 11 2014It's Mother's Day, and we're soft enough we love our mothers enough to share a new video from General Motors with you. In it, we meet Monique Watson (left) and Evetta Osbourne, a mother-daughter team that works at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly where GM makes the Chevy Volt (along with all of GM's other plug-in hybrids: the Opel Ampera, Holden Volt and Cadillac ELR). The two work side-by-side and have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on almost all of those vehicles - nearly 80,000 of them - since GM started making the pre-production Volts in 2009. In a prepared statement, Watson said that she likes working next to her mom, day in and day out, and they the two are totally in sync when it comes to putting the 400-pound, 16.5-kWh packs into the vehicle undersides. They two can also share stories throughout the day, and Watson said, "The arrangement has absolutely improved our relationship." Osborne started working at Detroit-Hamtramck in 1999, Watson since 2006. If you're driving a Volt today, you probably have them to thank for doing a bit of the work putting your car together. See a short video of them in action below. It's Always Mother's Day for Detroit-Hamtramck Duo Mother, daughter install lithium-ion battery pack in nearly all GM electric vehicles 2014-05-08 DETROIT – For Detroit resident Evetta Osborne, every day is Mother's Day. That's because she literally works side by side with her daughter, Monique Watson, at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. They have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on nearly every Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera, Holden Volt, and Cadillac ELR since production began. In fact, apart from vacation days and an occasional sick day, the mother-daughter duo has installed almost every battery pack since the Volt was in pre-production in 2009. The ELR launched earlier this year. All told – including Ampera – that's more than 80,000 electric vehicles. "We're a good team and our relationship is secondary when it comes to performing our jobs – but it's great to work alongside my daughter, said Osborne, a mother of five. Because the battery packs weigh more than 400 pounds each, automatic guided vehicles – robotic carts that use sensors to follow a path through the plant – deliver them just as the vehicle body structures glide into position overhead. The carts then lift the T-shaped packs, and Osborne and Watson guide them into the chassis and secure each one with 24 fasteners.
