Up for bid is a 1966 Chevrolet Panel Wagon Truck. I bought this truck in Bald Knob, AR in 2004. I planned to restore this truck but have too many projects and have not had the chance to work on the restoration, so it has been parked since I bought it. I have had a mechanic evaluate the truck. Brakes on two of the wheels are in working order, but two others need to be redone to be functional. Motor is a straight six but does not run, but it did get fire when I first purchased it. Truck was previously used as a painter's truck.
I also have a 1980 GMC pickup that I had planned to use the frame, tires, brakes, and 350 automatic motor in the restoration of this panel truck. I will be open to discussing with you purchasing this truck as well for an additional amount we agree on when you pick up the panel truck. Many parts on this GMC truck are missing - doors, fenders, bed, steering wheel, etc - so this is not a truck that can be driven. I have the title in hand but had never titled it in my name since I planned to salvage certain parts and scrap the rest. I had planned to set the 1966 body down on the GMC truck frame and use it as the drivetrain and scrap the 1966 drivetrain. NOTE: THIS 1980 GMC IS NOT AUTOMATICALLY INCLUDED IN YOUR BID ON THE 1966 PANEL TRUCK. YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO BUY THE 1980 TRUCK, BUT I WILL BE OPEN TO SELLING IT TO YOU FOR AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT WE AGREE ON. If you aren't interested in the 1980 I will salvage a few things from it and scrap it.
The truck will need to be trailered to it's destination. DOES NOT RUN. This truck is bigger than a "normal" truck and barely fits on most car trailers. Buyer is responsible for picking up and transporting the truck. I am in the delivery business, so I will be open to negotiating an additional fee for delivery to the winning bidder. This is not a guarantee for delivery, so do not bid on this truck unless you have discussed delivery with me in advance OR arranged your own pickup of the panel truck.
Payment is due within 7 days of auction end, and before you pickup the truck (or at the time of pickup). I will accept cash and PayPal. If you have any questions about payment please message me.
This truck is located at my in-law's farm in Savannah, TN.

The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land
Thu, Oct 15 2015Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray
Fri, 25 Oct 2013We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
