1986 one ton Chevrolet Truck (Dual Wheels on rear). I believe it has the 350 engine but not 100% sure. It does have a four speed manual transmission. The engine runs great. I have not had it on long hauls, usually not over 100 miles from home. I haven't had any problems with oil consumption, bad liquid leaks (none that I know of). Once in a while the gear shift will pop out of third gear. The tires look to be in pretty good condition. When it sits for days, as it usually does, the tires will bump when you first take off until they roll for awhile. I believe this is fairly common in the larger trucks. The transmission, other than popping out of third gear once in a while, works great. The frame, especially on the driver side is very rusty. I have hauled lumber, saw dust, junk, you name it, on the truck and have had no problems but I want to make you aware that the frame will need fixed or replaced. The truck has recently had the master cylinder, alternator and fuel pump replaced. The previous owner had some brake work done. The rear for sure, not positive about the front. The brakes work great. The heater works fine. There are some rust holes that let in the outside air, (floor boards for example). A couple of months ago the fuel filter started filling up with particles from the gas tank and after changing the filter about three times I disconnected the fuel line from the tank and am currently using a five gallon can. Not the safest way fix but I don't smoke nor drive it very often. The tank will need to be taken off and cleaned and the line reconnected. I do have a clear title. Mechanically, as far as I know, there is nothing wrong with the truck, other than the third gear issue. The body is rough, the windshield has a small area that is cracked, looks like a rock may have hit it. A picture is included in this listing. I currently have some left over lumber on the bed from a home improvement job so there is no pictures of the bed. I will have it unloaded before the end of sale. It does have a steel bed with metal racks. The truck did have a fifth wheel hitch that the previous owner had removed. The bed has at least one fairly small rusted through place on the bed. I remember it from when I was shoveling saw dust off the truck. Not major but can be an issue. I have tried to list everything negative that I know of, please see the pictures before bidding. If you have questions please ask and I will try and answer them. The truck runs good, it does have issues, rust for example. Lots of it. It is not very economical to drive. I think I usually get about ten to twelve miles per gallon. It is geared low so the slower that you drive it on the open road, probably the better the gas mileage. Other than the gas tank being disconnected, I would not be afraid to take off in it and head cross country. The truck will be your responsibility to move, no great hurry, a couple weeks or so will be fine. I am selling it as-is, no guarantees. The rust is pretty bad.

Recharge Wrap-Up: LAPD gets Zero MMX, Chevy's new inverter, Hyundai Tucson's new powertrains

Wed, Jul 16 2014

Some police in Los Angeles will be riding Zero MMX electric motorcycles on duty. The LAPD is adding the fully electric police/military all-terrain bikes to its patrol fleet. According to Officer Steve Carbajal of the department's off-road unit, "It costs less than 50 cents to charge compared to using gallons of gas, maintenance is simple, and the community appreciates how quiet they are." The electric bikes, with their lack of noise and a headlight the rider can turn off, also have the benefit of stealth, giving the officers what Carbajal calls "an added tactical advantage." The MMX also has swappable batteries, is designed for quick ignition and has power reserve capabilities so the rider won't be caught with a dead battery while chasing down a perp. Read more at Ride Apart. Remember when it seemed like we'd never run out of oil, and giving your buddy five bucks for gas was actually a worthwhile gesture? Drivers of classic cars in Detroit were able to fill up their tanks at gas prices corresponding to their model year, thanks to a promotion by Hagerty Insurance for National Collector Car Appreciation Day on July 11. That meant prices from 21 to 90 cents a gallon, as the cars that showed up ranged from the years 1929 to 1989. That's about as affordable as charging your EV. Head over to Autoweek for more details and some photos from the event. The next-generation Chevrolet Volt will likely benefit from a new inverter being developed by General Motors. GM is about two-thirds of the way through the development of the new inverter, which should be ready in January 2016. The inverter, which has a peak output of 55 kilowatts a continuous output of 33 kilowatts, will be adaptable for use in other GM vehicles. Chevrolet is working to reduce the Volt's production costs by $10,000 per vehicle, which should make it more affordable, and the new inverter could help reach that goal should it make its way into the car. Read more at Green Car Reports. Hyundai is likely planning some interesting powertrain changes for the 2016 Tucson, says Green Car Reports. Plug-in hybrid? Maybe. Diesel? Probably not. "We are covering the waterfront on all alternative fuel strategies, from standard hybrid, to plug-in, battery-electric, and fuel cell," says Hyundai's US Chief Dave Zuchowski.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
