This is a no reserve auction for a barn find 1952 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup truck on a modern Chevy S10 frame. The '52 Chevy was originally owned by a local farmer who used it to transport his produce to market. He drove the '52 Chevy until 1991 when the truck developed mechanical problems at which time it was stored in his barn. He had the original truck seat reupholstered in black naugahyde just before he stopped driving the truck. The seat coil springs and padding are in excellent used condition and the seat is firm and very comfortable. He also replaced the wood in the bed floor with pressure treated wood in the 1980's. The cab, front fenders, grille, running boards, front and rear bumpers and bed were removed from the original frame and transplanted onto the modern Chevy S10 frame. The S10 frame includes a complete drive shaft, motor mounts and a spare tire carrier. New supports were welded to the frame so that the cab, running boards and bed could be bolted in place. Mounting the bed to the S10 frame required raising the height of the bed which you can see in the pictures. Pressure treated wood was used at the rear of the bed where the bed was raised. The gas filler tube for the S10 gas tank is located on the LH front side of the bed floor and includes provisions for water to drain away from the neck. The original '52 Chevy gas tank and straps were removed which now offers a large storage area behind the seat. The original filler neck is still in place but the cap was tack welded shut. This vehicle is ready to accept the engine and transmission of your choice. The patina from the front bumper, and grille to the fenders, cab, bed, rear fenders and rear bumper are the way the truck was removed from the barn. The interior of the truck includes the original glove box door, ash tray, radio delete, an aftermarket amp gauge, original speedo, original gauge cluster, the original wiper motor with linkage, wiper arms and blades. This truck has the original seat with seat frame and seat tracks. The steering column is from a GMC truck and is fully functional. There are many patches and repairs to the body which were done by the original owner over the years. The weakest sheet metal on the truck by far is the tail gate. The pictures show the cab floor both before and after the floor was carpeted. The body and original frame showed no signs of having been involved in an accident other than the dents which you can see in the pictures. I have a clear 1952 Chevy pickup truck title in my name matching the manufacturers original dataplate as shown on the LH door. Please review all 24 pictures of this truck. We encourage interested buyers to personally inspect the truck. Please contact me with any questions or call me on my cell phone 1-484-557-2206.

2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut

Tue, Oct 21 2014

The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US Â– with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011. FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR 2015 "GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR"" Green Car Journal to Reveal Winner of 10th Annual Award at LA Auto Show" Press & Trade Days, November 20 LOS ANGELES, CA (October 21, 2014) Â– Green Car Journal has announced its five finalists for the magazine's high-profile 2015 Green Car of the YearÂ® program. The 2015 models include the Audi A3 TDI, BMW i3, Chevrolet Impala Bi-Fuel, Honda Fit, and VW Golf. The Green Car of the YearÂ® award, an honor widely recognized as the auto industry's most important environmental accolade, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the YearÂ® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
