1972 Chevy originally from Arizona. Started with a rust-free frame and underbody. Was taken right down to the frame for restoration (last photo). More than $30,000 invested. Reserve is MUCH lower.

All body work was professionally done and is impeccable. Cab was removed and lined with bedliner both inside and underneath before painting. All body parts were removed, sandblasted, professionally restored (no bondo), primed and painted. The color is flat charcoal metallic. It actually shines in the sun (see the last pictures). Bumpers and grill are flat black.

A partial list of all of the new items that went into the restore – new inner fenders, new doors, new rockers all welded in place, new OEM vintage tailgate ($600), new tilt steering column from IDIDIT, new steering wheel, all new wiring from Painless – nearly all of it running through split loom conduit, new LED lights all around, gauge cluster was restored, new Lokar automatic shifter, new wheels, brand new GoodYear Duratrac 33" tires, new bed wood and rails, all new gaskets and seals in doors and windows, new door exterior door handles and locks, new ignition, new pedals, new tailgate chains, new interior vents, new ductwork, new armrests, new carpet, new Flowmaster true dual exhaust, new Skyjacker 4" lift and shocks, new braided steering lines, new brake lines, power leather seats from a modern GTO (yes, they work), new gas tank, new sending unit, new battery, new radiator core support, new billet aluminum grill, new grill/headlight surround, new front bumper. All bolts were removed and replaced with either Grade VIII or 304 Stainless when possible. Nearly $400 spent in bolts alone. I'm sure there is more...

The engine is a top-end rebuilt 350 with an aggressive cam. The Holley 650 carburetor and intake manifold are brand new, new valve covers, new starter, new heater core. T350 transmission was professionally rebuilt with a 1800-2200 RPM stall torque converter. Original NP205 transfer case with working four wheel drive.

This truck is 98% done. Here is what is not completed. One of the brand new window gaskets in the passenger door got caught and ripped. A set of new ones is included - you only need one. Passenger door panel is not installed (to repair the gasket). The shift boots are not screwed down. Some body panels could use some professional adjusting to line up a little better. The rear view mirror is not hung. The glove box door latch is not lining up right and is not installed. The engine could still use some tuning. It runs strong, but is very cold-blooded. There is a transmission leak that I'm pretty sure is coming from the speedometer cable. I did not hook up a washer fluid reservoir, the pump is in place with new lines. Lastly, something is taking a light draw on the battery and it causes the battery to die after 3-4 days if not run or charged. I believe it's an amp (new) installed to run an iPod through a customer speaker enclosure/center console I built.

Everything works on this truck as it should. I have many vintage 4x4s and this one is going to make room. If you have any questions I am available for calls (e-mail for the number) and the truck can be driven and seen in Three Lakes, Wisconsin. Can deliver within 250 miles of Three Lakes, Wisconsin. This would include both the Minneapolis and Milwaukee areas. Bid with confidence. Clear Wisconsin title in hand.

Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.

GM cutting production at two plants

Thu, Feb 26 2015

General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.

Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years

Fri, Feb 21 2014

Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.
