Hello,
“Stinky” - MYBAD68 –
The finest most Gorgeous Truck you will ever find! OVER $35,000. INVESTED IN THIS BEAUTY!
Why the name “Stinky” you ask? I have a friend of mine who
is a professional pin stripper and painter who hand paint the stripping and graphics
you see on my truck, the name “Stinky” on the cowl hood, the” PEPE LE PEW”
skunk on the tail gate and the dice by the door handles. When I first got the
truck it had a gasoline smell that I just couldn’t seem to find or get rid of.
I replaced everything I could think of even taking the custom Boyd gas tank
down 3 times replacing everything, resealing everything but it still smelled
like gasoline. My wife got in the habit of calling it “Stinky” and the name
just stuck. I finally replaced all the fuel injected gas lines and pump with all
new and that ended up being the problem, no more gas smell but he is still
known as “stinky”! Hence the name “Stinky” on the custom cowl hood and the
custom hand painted “PePe Le Pew” on the tail gate! I also had him add some
custom dice to the outside of the 2 doors. All the hand painted items can be
removed easily if the new owner doesn’t like them.
Up for auction is “Stinky”
my “BAD” 1968 Chevy customized 1/2 ton short bed pickup truck. It had a fresh
complete frame off restoration just a couple of years ago. Everything has been
replaced and up-graded. I have a large 3 ring binder showing the restoration
project from start to finish. It is painted a BEAUTIFUL Corvette “Lemans” blue color
and has tan leather folding bucket seats out of a new 2012 Odyssey and tan and
brown leatherette interior, headliner and door panels. It has a 5.3L Vortex
fuel injected engine with the matching automatic 460 transmission and all the
computer hook ups that came out of a newer GMC truck with only 10,000 miles on
it. It has a custom billet “TILT” steering wheel with matching color padding. The truck has been lowered 2" in the
front and 4" in the rear. It has new tires and “BOSS” mag rims with power
disc brakes all the way around, the exterior has been shaved and smoothed and
all the trim pieces have been removed. The bed area is just as beautiful as the
exterior painted the same color with a rubber bed mat and even has a lockable
safe in the bed for your valuables or guns, etc. I just finished putting in
power windows and a Bulldog remote “TALKING” security alarm system. I also just
installed a new flip touch screen DVD/CD AM/FM IPod stereo player that you can
leave flipped out or hidden in the dash, with a hidden powered antenna. The
stereo system has 6 speakers with an amplifier system. The underneath portion
of this truck is also completed painted and finished off. Stinky has flow
master forty series dual exhaust run to the rear of the truck with chrome tips,
the sound is incredible! Stinky is really fast but yet gets great gas mileage
with the newer vortex engine. It has a new custom cowl hood and all new
instrument gauges by Auto-Meter, Pro-Comp, Ultralight. It has new Vintage air
conditioning and heat with the vents cut and installed in the dash. Custom
Billet instrument gauge bezel and matching Billet glove box door. I also just
installed new Euro crystal headlights with 7” amber LED aux lights in the seal
beam and a new BI-XENON HID kit for super neat brightness (these really look
cool and do a great job lighting things up). I have new LED front amber
indicator lights and all side lights have been shaved and recessed for a clean
look. Truck has all the windows tinted with a chrome / billet rear view mirror
with matching blue flames. It also has brand new swan neck chrome / billet hot
rod outside door mirrors. Everything is finished and completed on this beauty! Stinky also has hot jet coated headers and the engine compartment is fully painted and customized! I installed a on board battery charger/tender under the hood next to the battery and all you have to do to keep the battery fully charged is plug it in when not in use. It has a custom stainless steel 20 gallon Boyd gas tank located under the bed in the rear of the truck (no gas tank behind the seat for added room!). The tires and wheels are 255 75R 18". It has power disc brakes, power steering, custom American wiring, everything you can image! Take a look at all the pictures and if you need more information or more pictures contact me. This Gorgeous hotrod sits and stands like it should the outside profile looks fabulous - no disappointments!
Stinky has always been garage kept and been maintained by
professional classic car mechanics. I have all the records and receipts for the
things I have done. I have a clear title with no problems.
I have only entered it in one car show here locally and it
took first place and I will include the trophy with the sale. It drives and
handles like a beauty. The truck only had approximately 900 miles on the
rebuild when I purchased it and it only has 1650 miles on it now as indicated
by the odometer. Has a new steel bed painted the same color and a custom
Gaylord fiberglass matching bed topper with underneath lights.
I have tried to list all the extra options and added parts
but it literally has just about everything and I am sure I have missed a few
things. No dings, scratches, dents rust or other problems. There are no
disappointments with this truck, you will be extremely happy with it. This is a
classic and extreme care has been taken to make sure it got the very best of
everything however it is a 1968 that has been rebuilt and there is no warranty.
When you buy it you will be buying it “as is”, “where is” and the buyer will be
responsible for transportation and or pick up. I will expect a non-refundable
deposit of $1,000.00 through PayPal or in cash or direct bank deposit within 24
hours of the close of the auction. The remainder amount will be due within 5
working days and before the truck is picked up. I will only take cash or a
direct bank deposit into my banking account for the balance.
The truck is available for inspection by calling me and
making arrangements. The truck is also for sale here locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if it does not reach the reserve price or it sells locally.
Any questions or concerns please contact me through EBay or
call my cell number; 928-205-8238 (Terry) Check my feedback and bid with confidence!

Generally, when a manufacturer offers a long, high-mileage warranty, it's a sign that it stands behind its products. On top of that, it's generally a selling point for consumers, who can rest easy knowing that any catastrophic failures will be picked up by the manufacturer. Considering those facts, it does seem rather strange that General Motors is slashing the mileage warranty on model year 2016 vehicles from Chevrolet and GMC. Instead of offering consumers a 100,000-mile warranty, GM will now only offer a powertrain warranty up to 60,000 miles. The five-year warranty period, though, remains unchanged. GM will also cut the number of free services being offered to Chevy and GMC owners, as well as Buick drivers, from four to two. "Through research, we have determined that when purchasing a new vehicle, included maintenance and warranty rank low on the list of reasons why consumers consider a particular brand over another," explained a memo sent to dealers by Chevrolet VP Brian Sweeney and his GMC counterpart, Duncan Aldred, and obtained by Automotive News. "As a result, we have benchmarked our competitors, reviewed our current offerings and have concluded the following modifications to align closely with our customers' needs and expectations." While the move might seem odd, Sweeney and Aldred are right – according to Automotive News, Ford, Honda and Toyota each offer a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. As for what the money saved by trimming the powertrain warranty will go towards, a GM spokesperson simply told AN that the company will "reinvest the savings we will realize into other retail programs," some of which have been requested by consumers. What are your thoughts? Would a 40,000-mile reduction in a new vehicle's powertrain really turn you off from buying one? Even if it matched its competitors? Is GM better off spending its money elsewhere? Have your say in Comments.

LOS ANGELES — Netflix has unveiled a new star for some of its upcoming programming: electric vehicles from General Motors and other automakers. The streaming service announced an agreement on Thursday to feature vehicles including the Chevrolet Bolt, the electric GMC Hummer pickup and the Cadillac Lyriq in TV series and films "where relevant." The companies will highlight the partnership in a commercial featuring Will Ferrell that will air during the Feb. 12 Super Bowl. Netflix and GM called the agreement "part of a commitment to a more sustainable future." Financial terms were not disclosed. Netflix said it will help creators "better understand how EVs can complement and enhance their stories." Shows that will feature GM's electric vehicles include "Love is Blind," "Queer Eye" and "Unstable." Netflix productions also will include electric vehicles made by other automakers, the company said.

Even with just four brands in the family, General Motors still represents a performance powerhouse. Between the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Camaro Z/28, Cadillac CTS-V and ATS-V, The General can still deliver plenty of thrills. The 1980s, though, saw the brand go even crazier with performance. While the Camaro and Corvette were still around back in the day, GM had a number of other interesting performance offerings. The Bowtie was complemented by the long-deceased Monte Carlo SS, while the now-defunct Pontiac and Oldsmobile offered the Grand Prix and thumping 442, respectively. And Buick, which isn't short on performance with its Regal GS and Verano Turbo, offered a much more serious vehicle, in the form of the Grand National (not to mention the Darth Vader-spec GNX). MotorWeek, in its hugely entertaining retro flashbacks, looks back on these three long-lost GM performance icons, and it's just as good as you might expect.
