Up for sale is a New Mexico 1970 Chevrolet 1 ton Dually. This truck is as totally rust free as you will find, having lived 95% of it's life in New Mexico. As I understand it, this truck was originally a 1 ton flatbed, and at some point a 1970 "Longhorn" bed was added. The rear wheel wells have a slight tub, the rear wheels do not stick out like a more typical dually truck. The engine is a freshly rebuilt 350, and runs perfectly. Transmission is a typical 4 speed granny low, clutch is fine, brakes work fine. No AC.
A friend of mine at work, who moved to Colorado from New Mexico, was in the process of working on this truck. He had the rebuilt 350 installed, and put on 6 new Bridgestone "Desert Duelers" tires, 245x75x16. He then moved to Colorado, driving the truck up here. The truck sat for several years in a car port, then he was moving again and his wife told him it had to go, she did not want it at their new home. I bought it from him, cleaned the fuel system, replaced the cap, rotor, wires, plugs, etc. and got it running. It runs perfectly, as you'd expect from a fresh engine.
The tires have some dry-cracks from having sat. They have all their tread, having only been driven maybe a 1000 miles since they were installed before the truck came up from NM. I have the tailgate, it's bent pretty badly. I also have the cover for the side tool box, it needs a bit of work. The body is about as straight as can be found, the paint is bad and needs attention. The grille has a minor tweak in it, see photos. All the glass is good, the passenger door seems to be stuck in the "locked" position and can't be opened. The driver's door is missing the lock. The dash has been very slightly cut for the radio, which is missing the faceplate. Heater works fine, seat has a cover over it so I really can't say what kind of shape it's in, but it does not sag horribly or anything like that. Truck has one fuel tank.
This truck is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. Glad to store it for you for awhile if that's an issue, lets talk about what you need.
Please call with questions, I prefer that to email. Quinn, (303) 681-7770

Weekly Recap: Revisting the BBC report that ended Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear run
Sat, Mar 28 2015Jeremy Clarkson's long run as a Top Gear host has come to an end, and the reason is clear: His physical assault on one of the show's producers crossed a line, and the government-owned BBC couldn't tolerate it. The incident between Clarkson and Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon was initially described as a "fracas," and Clarkson was suspended. But his popularity and widespread support – even British Prime Minister David Cameron weighed in – suggested that the controversial Clarkson might be given yet another chance. The BBC put this to rest Wednesday when it sacked Clarkson and revealed the findings of its investigation. The report spelled out how Clarkson struck Tymon on the patio of a North Yorkshire (UK) hotel, leaving him with a bloodied, swollen lip. It was severe enough that the producer sought medical treatment. During and after the attack, Clarkson shouted expletives at Tymon and threatened to fire him. The noise carried into the hotel's dining room and even to a bedroom. Local police investigated the incident, but Tymon isn't pressing charges. The huge audience numbers, Clarkson's popularity and the high-octane excitement of Top Gear all melted away in the eyes of BBC director-general Tony Hall, who saw an attacker and a victim. "For me a line has been crossed," he said in a statement. "There cannot be one rule for one and one rule for another dictated by either rank, or public relations and commercial considerations." In that moment, Clarkson was the bad guy, though he was actually the one who reported it to the network and made repeated attempts to apologize to Tymon. He's also urged the media to leave the producer alone. Hall voiced regret in the statement that announced Clarkson's contract would not be renewed, but the BBC decided to move on. Rumors are swirling about possible replacements for Clarkson. The network says it wants to continue Top Gear in 2016 and is looking to air the rest of this season's episodes. Despite the controversy, the show has a global audience of 350 million viewers and is one of the BBC's most valuable properties. It's unclear what Clarkson's co-hosts, James May and Richard Hammond, will do, as their contracts were also reportedly up to be renewed.

GM Recalling 370,000 Trucks For Fire Risk
Mon, Jan 13 2014DETROIT (AP) - General Motors is recalling 370,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups from the 2014 model year to fix software that could cause the exhaust components to overheat and start a fire. The recall includes 303,000 trucks in the U.S. and 67,000 in Canada and Mexico. All of the trucks involved have 4.3-liter or 5.3-liter engines. GM said eight fires have been reported, but no injuries. One garage was damaged, the company said. All of the incidents occurred in cold weather. The company is asking customers not to leave their trucks idling unattended. GM dealers will reprogram the software for free. The company will inform owners starting Jan. 16. The major recall announcement, which came on Saturday, marred the Silverado's winning of the 2014 North American Truck of the Year Award at the Detroit Auto Show on Monday.
