 I purchased this truck in July, 2002 with the intentions of restoring back to original factory condition. Truck was manufactured in Chevrolet's Atlanta, GA Production Facility in 1965 and painted Light Green.  During the restoration process, the decision was made to change the color to Factory Code # 507 - Light Blue that was also available for that production year.

* This truck came off of the factory floor as a BASE Model with only the basic features:  " Thrift Air " Heater  /  Driver's Side Only Sun Visor / 230 - 6 Cylinder Engine with Manual 3 Speed with the Shifter on the Column.  Every effort was made to restore and maintain the Original Specifications - with the exception of the Color Change, just as the vehicle would have delivered from your local Chevy Dealer in 1965.

* All Rubber, Window Seals, Hoses, Belts,  Felt Seals, Fender and Panel Seals were all replaced.

* The Front Windshield was replaced, but all other glass is original with all new rubber on windows.

* New Rubber Floor Mats were installed along with Firewall Insulator Pad and Felt Liner under the Floor Mat.

* The Bed was re-built using new Steel rails and new bed wood as well as new chains and chain covers.

The pictures included will attest to the quality of this restoration and condition of this truck. As you can see, the vehicle is 100% complete including the Bumper Bracket Cover Panels and Cab Corner Gravel Shields that are many times missing on the trucks. The engine is strong and runs smooth with no smoke.  Transmission operates with no issues and shifts just as it came from the factory.

There are a few things not yet completed that would need to be done to bring the truck to Complete Original Specifications:  Battery is not correct for this period of truck.  Seat Cover was meant to be temporary.  Original Seat Cover is underneath, but damaged.  Radio is correct, but not hooked up, and I have the wheel for the spare tire along with the hanging mechanism for under-bed stowage.

* All Shop and Repair Manuals as well as other Books and Information shown in the pictures are included in the sell.

Vehicle is being offered with a low reserve and is availabel for inspection approximately 45 minutes south of Atlanta, GA.

** There are two small paint chips which I have pictured that occured as vehicles was being re-assembled.  These are small but I do want to make any bidder aware of these.  There is left over paint for all colors used that will also go with the vehicle.

** The State of GEORGIA WILL NOT ISSUE a title for a vehicle of this age, so ownership will be transferred with Bill of Sale and Local County Tag Receipt.  Vehicle has a current County Tag and Registration and is Insured.  Driven only occasionally.

The successful high bidder will submit a $500.00 Non-Refundable Deposit within 48 hours of close of Auction, with the Balance due within 5 Days.

* CASH in Person or Bank Wire are requested.  All financial transactions must be complete prior to release of Vehicle. If winning Buyer decides to ship, all Shipping Cost are at the expense of the Buyer and Seller will not be held liable for any damages in shipping.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford HQ gets giant solar array, Chevy City Express gets 24 MPG city

Sat, Aug 16 2014

Ford will be building Michigan's largest solar array at its Dearborn headquarters. With funding from DTE Energy, the solar carport will provide covered parking, as well 30 charging stations for electric vehicles. The array is expected to generate 1.13 million kWh per year for Ford's operations, and offset 794 metric tons of carbon emissions. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet announced the fuel economy for the 2015 City Express, at 25 mpg combined. The cargo van is rated at 24 mpg in the city, and 26 mpg on the highway. Chevy credits the van's inline four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission for its impressive city mileage. For its customers - which are mainly businesses - "The fuel economy of the City Express will help stretch their dollar at the pump and give them the flexibility to invest the savings back into their business," says Chevrolet's Ed Peper. The City Express starts at $22,950. Read more in the press release below. Engineers at the University of Wisconsin have developed an efficient engine that runs on a diesel-gas blend. The engine, which uses a computer to control the blend proportions, is about 15 percent more efficient than the any diesel engine according to mechanical engineering professor Rolf Reitz. The team has put the experimental reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engine in a demonstration car - a 2009 Saturn. "This vehicle can do 50 miles per gallon," says Reitz, who believes the system could be improved further. Read more at Wisconsin Public Radio. The Southeast Alternative Fuel Conference and Expo will take place in October in Raleigh, North Carolina. Held at the NC Clean Energy Technology Center from October 22-24, the event will feature a variety of exhibitors, speakers and, most importantly, alternatively powered vehicles. "The three day conference will be a one-stop shop for fleet and transportation related decision makers to learn about return on investment, efficiency and alternative transportation fuels such as biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, propane and natural gas," says Anne Tazewell of the NC Clean Energy Technology Center. If you can't make it to Raleigh for the Expo, you can still enter to win a free two-year lease of a Nissan Leaf at the Center's website. Learn more about the event in the press release, below.

Chevy Spark EV could be coming to Midwest later this year

Tue, Jun 10 2014

Ohio is not known as a hotbed of EV sales – if anything, the state is a bit anti-EV, thanks to a legislative fight against Tesla's direct sales model – but it might be on Chevrolet's short list to expand the market for the Spark EV in the near future. The latest official GM press release on the battery-powered Spark still says the car is "available exclusively in California and Oregon," but Hybrid Cars found four Ohio dealerships that list a Spark EV on their websites, with hints the the car will be coming to the Midwest state by the end of the summer. See, for example, here, here, here and here. But that's probably not going to happen, according to Randy Fox, GM communication's manager for passenger cars. Fox told AutoblogGreen that, "At this point in time, we don't have any official plans to expand the Spark EV beyond California and Oregon." The reason is that California and Oregon have the infrastructure to support EVs, Fox said, and GM wants to be able to support its EV customers. "We are continuing to look at other options," he said. "The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure" – John O'Dell John O'Dell, a senior editor at Edmunds.com, told AutoblogGreen that, "It makes sense for [GM] to expand sales and it makes sense to do it in a quiet manner, to get these vehicles on the road. The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure. If someone in my neighborhood has one and he likes it, then maybe I can trust him. So it's important to get these vehicles on the road." Chevy sold 182 Spark EVs last month, a significant increase over the 98 sold in April. That's still small potatoes compared to the 3,000+ Nissan Leaf EVs sold last month, but making the electric Spark available in Ohio, say, or GM's home state of Michigan could boost those numbers. AutoblogGreen called a few dealerships in Michigan to see what they had heard. One salesman said he didn't think GM had started production yet but the inventory manager for another dealership said the Spark EV is scheduled to arrive in the Midwest in "roughly the fourth quarter." What would GM's incentive be to offer the car in markets outside of California where it can gain ZEV credits with each sale?

GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.
