Up for auction is my 1967 Chevy C30 1 ton dually flatbed stakeside. The truck is an amazing survivor that is rather straight. The cab exterior is flat white where I touched up the original chalky patina paint. The interior is patina blue with the exception of any parts I replaced are now black. The truck has a 327 and 4 speed that runs great. The 327 runs well, runs cool and doesn't leak a drop. The 4 speed shifts like a school bus due to its ridiculously low gears. Every once in a blue moon, the release bearing would make a growl noise. I had bought an entire new clutch kit with bearings in the event it ever let go. I've driven the truck frequently for over a year and the release bearing has never been an issue. The clutch kit goes with the truck upon final sale and it is a heavy duty kit. I don't anticipate you will need it either but it is a good safety net. The rearend is geared so low that I often use 2nd gear starting out. The satin black bed is a 12 foot flatbed with a stakeside wall. The walls can be removed or you can attach the 2 foot extensions I have for them. I also have a cattle door for the very back of the truck. I've used this truck to advertise my business and fetch parts for the last year. It has served me well and never left me stranded. Things that operate slowly or not as they should drive me nuts and for this reason I replaced the windshield wiper motor, LED dash lights, LED tail lights, LED flasher. I also replaced the thermostat, temp gauge, temp sending unit, air filter, dash pad, sun visors, seat, tinted the windows, replaced the 16.5 factory wheels and tires with 16" Moto Metal chrome wheels with Yokohama Geolander ATS 235/85/16 tires. I bought the wheels and tires in April of this year. The tires are 8 or ten ply. They are load range "E" if that helps. There probably plenty of things that I am forgetting so if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. $250 non refundable deposit via paypal due upon auction close. Balance is due within 10 days and the truck is to be picked up in Hayden Idaho 83835. I can help accommodate whomever you choose for shipping but balance must be paid in full and cleared first. Thanks for looking.

GM wants to have 10 plug-in models in China in five years

Sun, Apr 24 2016

Last we checked, General Motors was selling all of three plug-in vehicle models in its home country of the US, and is prepared to make the Chevrolet Bolt EV available on these shores later this year. So it's notable that the automaker is hatching plans to have at least 10 plug-in variants for sale in China within the next five years, according to Hybrid Cars. Which plug-ins are coming remains a mystery. GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. The strategy makes sense, as China is now the world's largest car market, and accounts for about a third of GM's annual revenue. The automaker, which operates in China under the SAIC-GM and SAIC-GM-Wuling joint ventures, sells cars there under the Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, and Boujun badges, and has been doing so for the better part of two decades. Most recently, GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. What we do know is that GM is building its Cadillac CT6 Plug-in Hybrid in China, with distribution to be split between China and the US. That model, which is scheduled to start sales by the end of the year, is being built overseas because of a combination of Chinese government support for new-energy vehicle technology through incentives and the fact that battery-pack maker LG Chem makes most of its cells in nearby South Korea. The plug-ins are part of a broader plan by General Motors to either introduce or substantially tweak about 60 models by the end of the decade. With such new models, GM looks to boost unit sales by as much as five percent a year for the next few years. As for the other nine plug-in models slated for China by 2021, the company is mum. GM spokesman Dan Flores declined to comment to AutoblogGreen.

Next-gen Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra may use carbon fiber

Thu, Dec 7 2017

It's been generally accepted that the next generation of full-size GM trucks will use some sort of strong, lightweight material for the beds while retaining steel for the cab. While aluminum seems like the most obvious choice, according to Automotive News, the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra will incorporate both aluminum and carbon fiber in their beds. The publication cites sources from within GM, though it seems the introduction of this comparatively exotic material mix is still a few years off. While carbon fiber is both stronger and lighter than steel and aluminum, it takes significantly more time and money to produce, essentially relegating the material to small-volume cars. The main benefit for trucks is the resulting reduction in weight to improve fuel economy without sacrificing the tough, rugged capabilities truck buyers expect. The Ford F-150 made the switch to aluminum for the 2015 model year and it's proved highly successful. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before the competition followed suit. Automotive News says that the next-gen trucks will launch with aluminum beds and that it will take a couple of years before we'll see any carbon fiber incorporated into the design. Even then, only look for the composite material on higher-trim models, with a trickle down to lower-spec trucks possible further in the future. In 2011, GM announced it was working with Japan-based Teijin Limited on a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic. There's a good chance that material's introduction will be on trucks.

Chevy Crossvolt name kept alive in new trademark application

Fri, Dec 26 2014

In April 2011 General Motors submitted a trademark application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the word "Crossvolt." In November of this year, the application expired for lack of a statement of use. But in August of this year, GM applied again for the same trademark, leading some to believe that it intends to apply the name to a vehicle. That vehicle could explain the mule in sliced-and-diced Chevrolet Orlando bodywork caught in several spy shots this year, theorized to be some kind of Toyota Prius V or Ford C-Max Hybrid competitor; or it could be a production version of the Chevrolet Volt MP5 concept showed off at the Beijing Motor Show in 2010, which was about the same size as the Chevy Orlando. Or it could be none of those things – but the fact that Chevrolet is keeping it current makes us believe it will be... something.
