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.

How Chevy used popular Instagram user to promote 2016 Volt

Thu, Feb 26 2015

A picture is worth a thousand words. When it comes to Chevrolet and its Volt extended-range plug-in, the automaker is hoping pictures can be turned into a few more buyers. The company extended a little love to one popular social-media practitioner to see if the trick works. Former biochemical engineer Kevin Lu started his Instagram account a couple of years ago during a road trip, and the quality of his shots has attracted about 181,000 followers. With that popularity in mind, Chevy brought Lu up to Detroit to check out the unveiling of the next-generation Volt at the Detroit Auto Show last month. Lu also got to see the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly factory where the Volt is built, Automotive News reports. As for the next-gen Volt, Chevy says a more efficient powertrain and lighter battery help give the car an all-electric range of up to 50 miles and a total driving distance of more than 400 miles. Chevy also touts the model's streamlined grille and (tight) seating for three in the rear. General Motors hopes a combination of those improvements and exposure from sources such as Lu and his Instagram account (and some sleepy ads, apparently) revitalize sales of the model. Last year, Volt sales fell 19 percent to 18,805 units.

A Chevy Camaro hybrid? That's what EcoCAR3 could bring

Fri, Apr 10 2015

Figuring out a way for a hybrid powertrain to co-exist with the performance expectations of a classic American muscle car is a challenge that could vex that most experienced of automotive engineers. It's a challenge, in fact, being handed to a bunch of college students. Over the next four years, students from 16 North American colleges and universities will attempt to wring fuel efficiency from a 2016 Chevy Camaro as part of EcoCAR3, an advanced-vehicle technology competition sponsored by the Department of Energy, General Motors and others. They'll be attempting to use hybrid or plug-in hybrid technology while not sacrificing the performance of the Camaro, which was selected in part because the current model achieves just 17 miles per gallon in city driving and 28 MPGs on the highway, per EPA numbers. Students will get the latest version of the vehicle to work on, one that is expected to be unveiled next month on Belle Isle in Detroit. "If we still want to produce V8 Camaros, we're going to have to look at alternative methods of propulsion," said Al Oppenheiser, the chief engineer on the Camaro. "So the ideas that these college teams come up with could very easily be adapted to a car like the Camaro." Unlike similar competitions that reward fuel efficiency in vehicles, EcoCAR seeks those gains while emphasizing cost and consumer acceptance of these vehicles. The cars shouldn't look like experiments; they should look like everyday vehicles on the road. Previous competitions have allowed the teams to use whatever powertrain they desired. This time, EcoCAR officials designed the competition to concentrate on hybrid, hybrid-electric and diesel options. Competitors won't have the option of using hydrogen fuel cells as they have in the past. Last year, a team from Colorado State built a vehicle that contained both hydrogen and electric power sources. This year's limit is a curious choice, as some automakers such as Toyota have placed heavy bets on fuel cells in recent years. General Motors also runs a fuel-cell program. With the focus on cost and practicality, however, the program officials wanted to narrow the framework of the contest. "We always have some good decisions on what to make within the scope or out of scope," said Jim Kolhoff, global director of software engineering for General Motors.
