This is a no reserve auction for a barn find 1952 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup truck on a modern Chevy S10 frame.  The '52 Chevy was originally owned by a local farmer who used it to transport his produce to market. He drove the '52 Chevy until 1991 when the truck developed mechanical problems at which time it was stored in his barn.  He had the original truck seat reupholstered in black naugahyde just before he stopped driving the truck.  The seat coil springs and padding are in excellent used condition and the seat is firm and very comfortable. He also replaced the wood in the bed floor with pressure treated wood in the 1980's.  The cab, front fenders, grille, running boards, front and rear bumpers and bed were removed from the original frame and transplanted onto the modern Chevy S10 frame.  The S10 frame includes a complete drive shaft, motor mounts and a spare tire carrier. New supports were welded to the frame so that the cab, running boards and bed could be bolted in place.  Mounting the bed to the S10 frame required raising the height of the bed which you can see in the pictures.  Pressure treated wood was used at the rear of the bed where the bed was raised. The gas filler tube for the S10 gas tank is located on the LH front side of the bed floor and includes provisions for water to drain away from the neck.  The original '52 Chevy gas tank and straps were removed which now offers a large storage area behind the seat.  The original filler neck is still in place but the cap was tack welded shut.  This vehicle is ready to accept the engine and transmission of your choice.  The patina from the front bumper, and grille to the fenders, cab, bed, rear fenders and rear bumper are the way the truck was removed from the barn.  The interior of the truck includes the original glove box door, ash tray, radio delete, an aftermarket amp gauge, original speedo, original gauge cluster, the original wiper motor with linkage, wiper arms and blades.  This truck has the original seat with seat frame and seat tracks.  The steering column is from a GMC truck and is fully functional.  There are many patches and repairs to the body which were done by the original owner over the years. The weakest sheet metal on the truck by far is the tail gate. The pictures show the cab floor both before and after the floor was carpeted. The body and original frame showed no signs of having been involved in an accident other than the dents which you can see in the pictures.  I have a clear 1952 Chevy pickup truck title in my name matching the manufacturers original dataplate as shown on the LH door.  Please review all 24 pictures of this truck.  We encourage interested buyers to personally inspect the truck.  Please contact me with any questions or call me on my cell phone 1-484-557-2206.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

Junkyard Gem: 1988 Chevrolet Spectrum Sport Coupe

Wed, Aug 23 2023

Before General Motors created the Geo brand for cars built or designed by its overseas partners, the Chevrolet Division put its badges on U.S.-market versions of the Toyota Corolla Sprinter, the Suzuki Cultus and the Isuzu Gemini. Those cars were known as the Nova, the Sprint and the Spectrum, and all became Geos starting with the 1989 model year. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of the last Chevy Spectrums ever sold, found in a Denver self-service yard a few months ago. Midway through 1988, the Chevrolet Spectrum abruptly became the Geo Spectrum and was assigned to the 1989 model year. This car was built in May 1988, making it one of the very last of the pre-Geo Spectrums. The Chevrolet/Geo Spectrum was available as a four-door sedan and as a three-door hatchback, from the 1985 through 1989 model years. For 1988 only, a Spectrum Sport Coupe package, featuring some trim upgrades and these rad decals, could be had on the hatchback. This car was essentially identical to its Isuzu-badged counterpart, the I-Mark. In 1988, the MSRP for the cheapest possible Chevy Spectrum hatchback (the stripped-down Spectrum Express) was $6,495, while its somewhat better-equipped I-Mark twin started at $7,439 (that's $17,128 and $19,617 in 2023 dollars). Meanwhile, the base Hyundai Excel hatchback listed at $5,295 and the Yugo GV cost a hilarious $4,199 ($13,963 and $10,941 in today's money). Power came from this 1.5-liter SOHC four-cylinder, rated at 70 horsepower. A turbocharged version with 110 horsepower was available as well. You could get an automatic transmission in the Spectrum, but this car has the base five-speed manual. This car didn't get the optional air conditioning, but at least it has the traditional Isuzu HVAC control icons featuring blow-dried hair and high-heeled dominatrix boots. Just over 170,000 miles on the odometer. Someone installed a pretty good (for the 1980s) Blaupunkt Charlotte CR148 cassette deck in the dash. This was a necessity if you wanted to enjoy full appreciation of the music of the era. The Spectrum is special! It's as slick as city rain. "I didn't spend a lot of money but with my Spectrum it looks like I did." Joe Isuzu mocked Toyota salesmen when pitching the I-Mark. As was nearly always the case during the 1980s, the JDM ads for the same car were much more fun. They should have recreated this commercial with Spectrums.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
