1983 Chevrolet K30 Short Bed Dually 4x4 on 2040-cars

Year:1983 Mileage:77500
Location:

Southwest, Pennsylvania, United States

Southwest, Pennsylvania, United States

NOTE:  The truck was currently enhanced for inspection and had a new inspection sticker on it.  The only reason the title shows reconstructed is because it was rebuilt into a custom truck. There is nothing wrong with the truck at all and has never been wrecked.  For sale is a custom 1 ton 1983 Chevy short bed 4X4 dually.  This truck used to be a wrecker until the frame was shortened up to put a six foot bed on the truck.  It has a strong running big block 454 motor in it that I recently got a Weiand intake and a Holley 750 double pumper carb installed on it.  The truck show 77,500 miles on the odometer but I have no proof that that is correct.  Overall driving performance from the truck is impressive, and it runs very strong and never skips a beat for being about 30 years old.  This truck has a 4 speed manual transmission in it with 4.56 gearing and was made for hauling or pulling.  Inside the cab is in good shape for its age with the usual tear on the side of the drivers seat.  Little things like the controls don't work to change the heat from the defrosters need fixed.  Aftermarket CD player was installed with different speakers.  Dash pad has a blue cover on it and the door panels are in good shape also with minimal fading but they need new trim work installed.  The Speedometer, Voltage, and Gas Gauge all currently work.  The oil pressure gauge and the water gauge work sometimes and other times they are bottomed out at zero.  All of the lights outside of the truck currently work except for one of the license plate lights.  High and low beams also work nicely with the switch on the floor.  The floor is a vinyl mat fitted out of a newer Chevy truck so it is not original in any way.  On the outside of the truck, the body had currently was painted in the newer Chevy Topaz Blue Metallic and looks pretty nice.  The bed was taken off and a spot of rust on the passenger side was fixed with a small panel right behind the wheel well and there is a small crack there where the putty was.  The truck comes with Bushwacker flares if you would like them because the tires stick out just a little bit because it is a cab and chassis rear end and not a wider dually rear end.  In the pictures it has mud flaps on it and I have currently taken them off, but they will come with the truck too.  When the bed was taken off it was wire brushed and undercoated with rubberized undercoating and is still in great shape, and comes with the bed liner.  The tailgate that is on it now is black because it was the nicest one that I have and due to little time was not able to paint it.  Underneath on the frame there is no rot just a little bit of surface rust starting to form on the leaf springs and on the rear end.  Overall, the truck runs strong, shifts great, and pulls hard.  The only mechanical problems under the hood that I know of is that there is a pinhole in the power steering hose "leaves drips in parking stall sometimes" and it needs a fan shroud.  The rear end sometimes has some fluid on it but they told me it is just a gasket and it does not leak a significant amount it just sometimes leaves a few drops here and there.  There are too many things to list with this truck so any questions feel free to email me.  A non refundable $500.00 deposit is required after within 24 hours of the auction ending.  The vehicle needs to be picked up within 5 days of the auction ending. Also the truck is for sale locally so I have the right to end the auction early if need be.

Thanks for looking.

A hybrid and electric Corvette, plus we drive the Ioniq 5 | Autoblog Podcast #728

Fri, May 6 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. Zac drove the electric 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Greg drove the fire-breathing 2022 Maserati Levante Trofeo. The two dive deep into the relatively heavy news week by starting off with a discussion about the upcoming hybrid Corvette before chatting about what the electric Corvette might be like. They have a chat about the possibility of Porsche and Audi officially joining the Formula 1 field. Then, Greg and Zac get into some quick-hitting news to round out the segment by dissecting the updated Kia Soul (now without a turbo), the 30th Anniversary Edition Land Rover Defender and the new CEO at Aston Martin. Following the news and drive reviews, they rope in Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder to give them a quick download of what went down at the first drive for the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning. Finally, they reach into the mailbag and answer some questions from someone who is less than pleased about infotainment systems in some new cars. And lastly, the gang hears back from someone they helped out in a prior Spend My Money segment on the podcast. Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.

Performance cars overpower the Detroit Auto Show

Tue, Jan 13 2015

At precisely the stroke of noon on Monday, the 2016 Acura NSX rolled on stage at the Detroit Auto Show amid plumes of smoke and dancing lights. The sounds of the powerful engine revving soared to the rafters. It was the second coming of Acura's iconic sports car, and the reveal had all of the expected trappings. Afterwards, champagne corks popped and the bubbly flowed. It was noon in Detroit, but for the green-car movement, it seemed like the clock had struck midnight. That's an exaggeration, but performance was the overwhelming theme of North America's most important show. Ford – which has helped lead the way in smaller displacement engines and early adoption of hybrid powertrains – had more than 1,500 horsepower on stage one point after it revealed the GT concept, the new F-150 Raptor and the Shelby Mustang GT350R. The NSX is technically a hybrid (it has three electric motors), but with 550-plus hp, there's no doubt this Acura was bred on the track. The theme continued throughout the show at nearly every stand. Alfa Romeo showed off the 4C Spider, which is the open-air version of a car that purports to be the spiritual successor of the high-performance 33 Stradale from 1967. On Tuesday, Cadillac is scheduled to reveal the 640-hp CTS-V with the V8 transplanted from the Corvette Z06, and the Lexus was expected to roll out its own V8-powered beast, the 467-hp GS F. For enthusiasts – especially enthusiasts with money – these are halcyon days. But make no mistake, all of this power has a purpose. Ford product chief Raj Nair said the Blue Oval uses high performance cars to develop technologies, like aerodynamics and materials, which are then shared across its lineup. "It's another proof point about how serious we are in developing innovation through performance," he said. Ford, which is rolling out at least 12 performance cars by 2020, said the sporty cars attract younger and more influential buyers to its fold, which can help burnish its image beyond adding sales volume. Toyota is taking a similar approach, senior vice president Bob Carter said, noting the Lexus RC coupe draws people into showrooms and gets them excited about the brand, even if they don't end up buying one. "They provide an aspiration and a halo that provides the attention that gets you noticed in a cluttered market," he said.
