1973 Chevrolet Custom Deluxe 20 Truck Original Ca Survivor 20k Miles One Owner on 2040-cars
Merced, California, United States
|
Up for sale is most likely the nicest original 1973 Chevrolet truck in existence today. This truck is a one owner vehicle with just under 21k original miles. This truck was purchased new at Lew Williams Chevrolet Center on Folsom in Sacramento, CA by Richard and Opal Peterson of Nevada City, CA. This truck has spent it's entire life in the dry California climate and has always been registered to one owner at one address. Many of the original documents from purchase in 1973 are pictured and included with the sale: original title, temporary registration, original registration card, financing paperwork/contract, owners manual, sales brochure, accessories brochure, and others as seen in pictures. This truck is in amazing original condition and is 100% original, down to the original factory installed tires and power beam headlights. The paint and body are in excellent condition with no blending, bodywork, metalwork, or replacement ever being done. The interior is in perfect original condition with the factory seat belts being wrapped in factory installed plastic and only recently being pulled out from behind the front seat where they have sat unused for all of these years. As you can see on the parts identification card on the inner fender that this truck is factory equipped with a 350 V8 engine, 4 speed compound low transmission, air conditioning, custom moldings, and set up for the camper shell from new. The camper shell and Barden rear bumper were produces and installed locally and have been on the truck since new. The condition of the bed is immaculate and appears to have never been used and if so, only slightly. The engine and drivetrain all work as they should on this truck. Recent work includes rebuilt original carb, fuel hoses replaced, and rear wheel cylinders rebuilt. All electrical works as it should as well. This truck runs and drives well for a museum piece, but if you were planning on using this as a daily driver I would suggest going over the usual wear items and fluids before making an attempt at using it daily. The last registration card in the truck was from 1989 and then it was registered non op with the DMV, so there is no back registration on it due for the new owner. The truck went out of daily use status before this time frame and was only recently uncovered and brought back out into the public spotlight. This truck has been kept in an insulated barn since new, and it shows. Both original license plates and dealer frames are included and in mint original condition. I also have a few pictures of the truck as it sat in the garage that I will include for the new owner. This is a true time capsule vehicle that deserves to be in a great collection of low mileage vehicles and be brought out occasionally for others to view and enjoy. Overall this is the nicest original Chevrolet truck of this year that I have ever seen and is probably the nicest and most original low mileage Chevrolet truck from this year anywhere in the world. Trucks like this just don't come around but once in a lifetime and you will be hard pressed to find another like it.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat vs. Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in latest Head 2 Head
Fri, Jan 30 2015"Olympian" is one of the terms we use to signify the greatest height, the seat of the gods. Yet Mt. Olympus is the second-highest peak in the Balkans ranges, overshadowed by the crest at Musala in Bulgaria's Rila mountains. Both great heights, but one is a little higher. That's how we get the Olympian Chevy Camaro ZL1 pitched at the Musalic Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat in Motor Trend's latest episode of Head 2 Head. The side-by-side spec sheet is filled with farcical numbers. For the ZL1, that's a 6.2-liter V8 with 580 horsepower, 556 pound-feet of torque, a 4,051-pound curb weight, 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 12.2 seconds and a base price of just $57,800. Opposing that, the Hellcat wrings out its 6.2-liter V8 for 707 hp, 650 lb-ft of torque, weighs 4,449 pounds, does the quarter in 11.7 seconds and has a base price of just $60,990. Except in the case of the Hellcat, when Motor Trend put it on the dyno the machine spit out a reading of 672 hp and 606 lb-ft at the wheels. If there's a 10-percent driveline loss through those beefed-up internals and heavy-duty eight-speed transmission, that means the Hellcat is actually rated at about 750 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. But once they get put on a closed-off strip of coast road in Northern California, there are only a few strands of hair between their respective performances. That's not the case for they sensations provide; host Jonny Lieberman calls one of them, "One of the most incredible cars ever made," and says, "It changes everything." Watch the video above to see who got the verdict and how. Related Video:
2016 Chevy Volt will not need premium gas
Wed, Oct 29 2014Buried in the new technical details of the 2016 Chevy Volt released yesterday was a throwaway line about a small but important change that's due to the new 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine. The first-gen Volt has always required premium gas but the new powerplant will be happy burning plain old regular. The Volt's chief engineer, Andrew Farah, told AutoblogGreen that the change was due to today's Volt owners explaining they were not happy paying for top-shelf petroleum. "The ability to use regular unleaded was based directly on customer feedback," he said. "Since the range extender is an all-new engine, it was optimized to use regular unleaded at the outset. Using regular fuel will not have effect on vehicle acceleration or other performance factors." As Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification, told AutoblogGreen yesterday, the new engine is more powerful and quieter than the outgoing 1.4-liter engine that's used in the current Volt. Fuel economy and EV range specs for the next-gen Volt are not expected until the full car is revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.
