Very good condition 1942 chevy flatbed Art deco truck. Truck has a newly rebuilt engine, new master cylinder and brake lines. Maxes out safely at 45 to 50 mph. Has a very good shifting clutch and transmission. Cancer free but has some surface rust on one spot under drivers door and on surface of rear view mirrors. Light rust on grill. Do not have room in my garage so I must let go. My primary vehicle smacked into a hog so I need to replace that. The truck runs strong and is difficult to kill. I drove all the way from Texarkana to Brownsville this past october and it ran great. A defective gas tank that started to leak (manufactured by previous builder) in an area where a fold in the metal prevents an easy fix. Tank was relocated to underside of wood flatbed and original that goes behind the back seat has been removed. So it needs a tank, tires are ok and I have two spares for front that really needs them or you can purchase. Thsese 9.00 20 * 8.25 20 or 7.50 20 tube tires are available everywhere and inexpensive. Truck is solid steel but this wasn't a professional restoration. The paint is imperfect but gets approval and complimentary looks. Was to be used to advertise my ebay listing service with an 8 foot by 8 foot sign on flat bed with an eye for political functions too. Must pick up. No deliveries. Truck sold as is but I guarentee the engine to be awsome and only 1500 miles have been driven on it since its extensive rebuild. Interior headliner and seat are in great shape just fixed up too. Winshield has a small crack but cranks open and looks great. Intefrior and exterior are completely cancer free and in farm fresh rust free condition. Wood on flatbed is new and darkening is just exposure to rain as truck's tail was not under carport.Misplaced oil cap ...but I'm looking for it. Hole covered. Some surface rust has developed from me not storing it inside ( no room) so I have to let her go. More pictures including inside cab and engine will be taken in tomorrows sunlight. All offers reviewed and best offer by week's end will have offer accepted. Deposit is non-refundable. Also minus 2 rear tires and wheels for this to roll like actual rear dually. Clear blue title on hand with bill of sale from previous owner in Arkansas to me.

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015
Tue, Feb 11 2014Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper. For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011. The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors. While the adoption of SAE J2807 will be helpful for light-duty customers, those interested in bigger trucks will still be left with differing standards. There is no sign of the new tow standards being adopted for the heavy-duty market.
Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
