1950 Chevy 5-window Short Bed Survivor Rust Free!!! on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, Connecticut, United States
1950 Chevy 3100 Series Short Bed Pickup
52,000 original Miles!! Selling my awesome 1950 5 Window pickup. Truck is a real 3100 series half ton with the rare and desirable 5-Windows. These trucks are harder and harder to find in this condition with 5 windows. The truck is pretty much all original with no alterations, cutting, or bondo etc. Was a 1 owner that was well taken care of and maintained. This is pretty much a rust free vehicle that is very solid. Looks like a couple paint jobs over the years but no rust through spots anywhere, just surface underneath, yet still solid and some on the running boards,(which have replacements), and a couple nicks etc., that you would expect. I would call it a "5 Footer". Truck is still equipped with it's original motor (216-hp),and drive train, which operate flawlessly, and the exhaust is new stainless from motor, all the way back. Shocks were also replaced. Brakes were checked and are fine. Replaced the water pump and rebuilt the generator as well as putting some tires on. Included with the truck will be a brand new set of running boards and a bed kit with stainless strips, still in boxes. (close to 2K in parts). Presently, there is a metal plate in the bed that works fine for now. This truck is super solid, virtually rust free and un-touched. Your call whether to keep it so original or hot rod it. You will not find a better one in this part of the country and actually if it was a southern or western truck you would not know, due to the lack of rust. Floors are solid. Only thing I can see changed was the foot starter was replaced with a much more user friendly ignition switch on the dash. Naturally, a vehicle this old is sold as is with no warranty. Please note that the great State of CT does not issue tiles for vehicles this old, as is the case with most states. You will receive a CT Bill of Sale and a copy of the present registration. Please check with your DMV before bidding. Will sell to and ship anywhere but buyer is responsible for payment. I will gladly help load etc., but do not want to be held up with international shippers. (I checked "clear" for title, because you are forced to list one of eBay's categories, since there is no option for "none".) Will accept Pay Pal for deposit but if you want to pay for the truck using Pay Pal, I need to pass their fees unto you as I can not afford to absorb them, sorry. Vehicle is listed for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time should it sell. If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks, you need to make contact prior to bidding or I will cancel the bid, as I have had too many less than honorable jerks ruining auctions, sorry. I will answer all questions and if you want a phone conversation shoot me a phone number. Good Luck bidding on this great old Truck!!

Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own
Tue, 22 Jan 2013It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.
Surprise! GM putting aluminum in next-gen pickups
Wed, Aug 5 2015Last month, General Motors launched a series of ads touting the benefits of steel over aluminum – specifically, with regard to the Chevy Silverado versus the Ford F-150. (Kind of. We're not sure what a grizzly bear has to do with anything.) We took issue with the ads, with editor in chief Mike Austin saying they "reek of insecurity, and distract from the Silverado's strengths that could be used for positive advertising." But what bothers us more, is that yet another report surfaced claiming anti-aluminum GM will indeed use the weight-saving material in its next-generation fullsize trucks. On Tuesday, GM announced a $877-million investment for its truck plant in Flint, MI. But Reuters says that huge overhaul is because the trucks will use "substantially different equipment than the tools GM uses today." The report specifically states, "People familiar with the company's plans say GM's next-generation pickups and SUVs will make use of various materials, including aluminum and lightweight steel, to shed weight and gain fuel efficiency to meet tougher federal standards." The Silverado already uses a few aluminum components in the engine and hood, and if more widespread use will help GM build its best fullsize trucks ever, then that's great. Honestly, we have no reason to doubt that aluminum will be used in the next Silverado and GMC Sierra. We just hope GM remembers that nothing is ever truly deleted from the bowels of the Internet when it launches the subsequent "look how great aluminum is!" campaign.

Personal testimonies show real-world effect of plugging in with Chevy Volt
Mon, Jan 13 2014At this point, there are tens of thousands of individual stories about what it's like to live with a Chevrolet Volt. But it also remains informative to take a look at one of these in depth. For example, one Atlanta-area Volt owner says he's cut his cents-per-mile ownership costs by almost 40 percent compared to his previous car primarily because of his ability to drive almost all the time on electric power. Jeffrey Cohen told Clean Technica that he put about 14,000 miles on his Volt extended-range plug-in hybrid for the year that ended October 2013, and that more than 92 percent of those were on electrons. He estimates his "lifetime" miles per gallon rating at a whopping 384 mpg, a figure pushed upward by the fact that he installed a Level 2 charger at home while his employer added an external 110-volt charger at work. Cohen is spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents in his Infiniti M35. As a result, he's spending 45 cents a mile for his car, compared to 73 cents a mile with his prior vehicle, an Infiniti M35. About two-thirds of those Volt costs are for the $349-a-month lease payments, while 15 percent is insurance, 11 percent is for the charger and seven percent for the gas and electricity that actually powers the car. Helping lower that last figure is an overnight electricity rate that's about 10 percent of Cohen's daytime rate. Chevy parent General Motors hopes such testimonies will re-trigger sales for the Volt in 2014. Last year, GM sold 23,094 Volts, down 1.6 percent from 2012. We expect our readers have similar stories they'd like to share in the Comments.
