2002 Chevrolet 3500 Ext Cab Diesel Dually Pickup W/hodges Car Hauler/bad Motor on 2040-cars

Centerview, Missouri, United States

FOR SALE: 2002 Chevrolet C/K 3500 4-Door Extended Cab DIESEL Pickup w/Hodges Car Hauler. Bad Motor. Must be hauled from its present location. Bidding starts at $3500. This is a NO RESERVE auction. 

Motor is bad. Body is in very good shape. Interior has a lot of parts inside. We were pleasantly surprised upon moving the parts that the seats were surprisingly in very good condition. Undercarriage shows surface rust only. No body rust on the exterior or signs of impending problems in that area. Digital odometer shows 604431 miles. This unit belonged to an area car dealer and it's clear they maintained the truck until the motor simply gave out.

Now, for the Hodges Bed. We saw a lot of surface rust and some residual cracking around the reinforced top edges of the bed. We took plenty of photos of the undercarriage. Again, surface rust only and absolutely no rust-through on the flat bed. The winch and all of the chains are present. This is a solid bed. Ramps are intact as well. 2 large toolboxes and they do latch properly.

We checked the tires all around. Tread is at more than 75 percent all around and there is no unusual wear pattern on any of the tires - truck or car hauler.

With a new or refurb motor, this would be an excellent unit for someone needing a good truck and car hauler for their business or for a race team. Given the age of the vehicle, it's obvious it was well cared for over the years. The AutoCheck report shows every maintenance detail for every system for the duration of the life of the truck. Electrical, oil changes, fuel system, lubes, body checks... So there is absolutely no misunderstanding, this unit must be hauled from its present location. You are welcome to conduct a full inspection of the vehicle prior to purchase. It is being sold as is with no warranty. All sales are final.

WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION EARLY AS IT IS BEING ADVERTISED LOCALLY. WE REQUIRE A $500 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT DUE IMMEDIATELY AT THE CLOSE OF THE AUCTION. BALANCE DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS OF THE CONCLUSION OF THE AUCTION VIA CASH OR CASHIERS CHECK. SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY PLEASE. WE REPORT NON-PAYING BIDDERS.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
