 Up for sale is this beautiful 1957 Chevrolet short bed truck.It is located in El Paso,Texas. It has a strong running 350 engine with a 4 barrel carburetor and new dual exhaust with scavenger pipes.The transmission is a 350 automatic. This truck runs and drives good.The headlights,turn signals,brake lights,wiper,horn and heater work. This is a very good example of a driver quality truck. Please note, THIS IS NOT A SHOW TRUCK . If you are looking for a flawless truck,then this is NOT the truck for you. You can find a fully restored one like this for 3 times the price I am asking for mine. This is a great opportunity to buy an iconic classic on a budget ! This truck has a new starter,and it starts right up every time. I love the attention I get when I go out in it. As far as the performance part of the truck, I have to say that it is pretty good. The attention to detail is what this truck needs. For example, I can see that this truck will need a better paint job,including new lower rocker panels and cab corners. I think that is the worst part of the truck. I can see that under the truck is in pretty decent shape. The frame is in great shape as well. All the glass on the truck is good,but the back glass is pitted. The interior of the truck could use a make-over. It does not have the original seat.I was going to replace it,but never got the chance. The rims on this truck are custom turbine rims from the 70's. They are very hard to find. The front are 15x6 and the rear are 15x8. I think they look great on this truck. The tires are in pretty good shape as well.The front chrome bumper and grill are original and still shine really nice for their age! The wood in the bed is complete,but it shows its age. The tailgate looks a bit worn as well. It's a truck!!! These trucks were used for work back in the day. It is only logical to see wear on the truck.All in All, this truck is pretty decent for its age. All I have for this truck is what you see in the pics.It has a clean Texas title. Nothing more. You are more than welcome to have Ebay inspect the truck.A $500 deposit is due up front. No exceptions. Please note that I am selling this truck locally and I have the right to cancel this ad at any time.This truck is sold in as is condition with no warranty or refund. If you have any questions or concerns, Please call me at 915-630-2034 . Ask for Jacob. Thank you for looking and GOOD LUCK !!!!!

NHTSA investigates 1.7 million GM SUVs for windshield wiper failures

Tue, Nov 6 2018

WASHINGTON - The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Tuesday it is investigating whether General Motors should recall an additional 1.7 million sport utility vehicles due to an issue with windshield wiper failures. GM in August 2016 recalled 367,800 2013 GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox SUVs in the United States to address the problem. But after receiving 249 complaints about similar problems, the federal agency said it is probing whether the recall should be expanded to include an additional 1.7 million vehicles from the 2010-2016 model years. The automaker said it is cooperating with the NHTSA review. GM said it recalled the 2013 GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox SUVs "because warranty data showed a higher-than-expected failure rate," adding it has continued to monitor field data on other model years of those vehicles. GM noted that no crashes or injuries related to the issue have been reported. The Detroit-based automaker said the recalls were prompted after a GM Canada brand quality manager reported a potential safety issue relating to reports of windshield wiper failures in Canada through GM's "Speak Up For Safety," program in late 2015. The data showed significantly higher field incidents in parts of Canada, which prompted a June 2016 recall there. Over the next two months, a higher number of U.S. reports prompted a U.S. recall, the company added. In the 2016 recall, GM said the front-wiper module would be replaced with a module that has a water deflector and, if needed, dealers would fill the water management hole and drill a new small hole in a different location.(Reporting by David Shepardson, editing by G Crosse)Related Video: Government/Legal Recalls Chevrolet GM GMC SUV

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Recharge Wrap-up: U of M wins Solar Challenge, family attempts record-breaking e-bike ride

Thu, Aug 14 2014

The University of Michigan Solar Car Team has won the 2014 American Solar Challenge. It is the team's eighth national championship, its fifth in a row, and its first using Siemens' product lifecycle management (PLM) software. The race took place over 1,722 miles and seven days traveling across eight states. The team's car, called "Quantum," outpaced the nearest competitor by four hours. Looking forward, Michigan Solar Car Project Manager Pavan Naik says, "The switch to Siemens tools will give us the ability to model and simulate everything and truly allow us to optimize the performance of our new vehicle. As we start on our quest to win the World Solar Challenge in 2015, we'll be leveraging a full complement of PLM solutions." Read more in the press release below. The EcoCar3 competition, in which teams will convert Chevrolet Camaros into hybrid electric cars, begins in September.

Zap already has two lines creating the Urbee EV to met demand, and is switching over a third to make electric minivans and SUVs. The company aims to produce 30,000 EVs by 2015 for the Chinese market. Zap says it has a backlog of 25,000 Urbee orders. Read more in the press release below. A family of four hopes to make a world record-breaking, 6,000-mile electric bike journey this fall. The family, which recently drove from Argentina to Montana in a pickup with a camper, will ride from Montana to Maine, then down the East Coast to Florida in an attempt to break the record for longest electric bicycle ride. They'll use two bikes. The Father, Thomas, will ride one of the bikes carrying one of the children, while the rest of the family rides in a support vehicle, with the mother, Dylan, riding the second bike when they can find others to drive. They have started a crowdfunding campaign for some of the equipment needed to document the trip. See the video below or read more at Treehugger.
