Up for auction a rare GMC 1/2 ton pick up truck. I believe in driving the trucks I restore so I built this truck with this in mind. This truck was built using a Chevy S10 frame and has the 4.3 Vortech engine with a 5 speed manual transmission. All the sheet metal bed, cab, fenders, etc.. except the front bed panel (which i replaced) are original. The truck has 15" rally wheels with 3" beauty rings and original late 60s era derby hub caps. The cab inside floor and under the cab and under the fenders have been painted with P.O.R.15. The cab and bed were epoxied primed. And the fenders were painted with Z Chrome rust defender before painting. The truck is painted in a firethorn red gold metallic flake. The paint job is not perfect but is nice and the truck does turn heads. I tried to keep the truck as original looking as possible but also keeping comfort in mind. The cowl vent works and the windshield cranks open. There is the original style headlight switch. I used a S10 instrument cluster but also used the original style instrument cluster bezel. The seats are black leather power seats the diver seat being a 8 position power seat. The steering column is a S10 column and the blinkers, and high low beam are controlled by the blinker arm. The windshield wipers are single speed and controlled by a toggle switch in the dash. The interior light is also controlled by a toggle switch on the dash. The driver and passenger door glass are original to the truck. the windshield and back glas have been replaced. All the handles except the window crank handle are original to the truck. The steering wheel is a custom grant 13.5 inch wheel. All the rubber seals have been replaced. The bed has oak boards that me and my dad planned and finished from rough cut oak slats my neighbor cut in his saw mill. The bed strips and angles are polished stainless steel. the bed chains are also stainless steel as are the bed bolts The brakes on the truck has been replaced and the truck drives and stops great. I used the original S10 fuel tank and wiring harness. The truck is a lot of fun to drive and is a real head turner everyone loves to see it coming down the road and folks will keep you hemmed up at the store or gas pump wanting to look at the truck.

OnStar to offer 90-day driving assessment, possible insurance discount

Wed, Jan 7 2015

General Motors has announced a brace of new features for OnStar, two of which could help you save money assuming you're willing to sign over some (more) personal details. The first is a driving assessment program in which OnStar takes note of certain driving parameters for 90 days, then provides the driver feedback on their driving, both individually and when compared to other drivers in the program, as well as driving tips. Think of it as OnStar's ICE version of the Nissan Leaf's CARWING feature that compares how efficient your electric driving is compared to other BEV drivers. In this case, though, certain drivers will have the chance to share their assessment with Progressive Insurance, and if the numbers are right they might get a "driving-based" discount from the insurance company. The assessment program is voluntary, and requires opting in. It will be available this summer on all new GM cars and some GM vehicles back to 2013. In case this sounds like Big Brother, let's not forget that Big Brother is already here and moved in so long ago that he's a member of the Kiwanis club and is hosting neighborhood block parties. Progressive already has a million enrollees in a program called Snapshot that tracks OBD II data to offer usage-based insurance to provide annual pricing based on how much you drive your car, with discounts of up to 30 percent. The OnStar effort is just another way to do that. The second feature is proximity offers through AtYourService, which notifies drivers to deals and information on their driving route and provides coupons from RetailMeNot and Entertainment Book. Beyond that, a deal with Priceline will let OnStar agents book hotels for you starting this year, there's a tie-in with Dunkin' Donuts, too, but we're fuzzy on those benefits, and third new feature lets Chevrolet owners know when certain parts need replacing.

Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.
