Buzz 3000 Basic Raffle 5/13/2018

[Farmer1]

Hey Farmer1, seeing how You do a little bit of traveling... ever gone down this Road :
...?!?



This 1962 Vette was featured in that Show...! "George Maharis reported in a 1986 Nick at Nite interview that people often ask him about "the red Corvette." According to Maharis, the Corvette was never red. It was light blue the first season, and fawn beige for the second and third seasons. Both colors were chosen to photograph well in black and white, but the show's cinematographer complained that the powder blue car reflected too much light. The Corvette was replaced with a newer model annually by the series' sponsor, General Motors, but the show itself never mentioned or explained this technicality."

1962 models were all one color.

Under the hood is the bulletproof 327-cubic-inch V-8 engine that delivers 300 horsepower through a four-speed manual transmission to propel the 2,925-pound fiberglass Corvette on a 102-inch wheelbase.

Records indicate that of the 14,542 Corvettes built that model year, this one was an early one at number 923. The actual build date is October 3, 1961, and the base price when new was $4,038.

1969 Pontiac GTO Judge



"The previous economy engine and standard 350 hp 400 CID V8 remained, while the 360 hp (270 kW) 400HO was upgraded to the Ram Air III, rated at 366 hp (273 kW) at 5,100 rpm. The top option was the 370 hp (280 kW) Ram Air IV, which featured special header-like high-flow exhaust manifolds, high-flow cylinder heads, a specific high-rise aluminum intake manifold, larger Rochester QuadraJet four-barrel carburetor, high-lift/long-duration camshaft, plus various internal components capable of withstanding higher engine speeds and power output. Unlike the highest RPM big-block Chevy and Hemi engines, the Ram Air IV utilized hydraulic lifters."

1946 Chevy Panel Truck



It isn’t fast and it isn’t show-ready, but this barn-found ’46 Chevy from West Jordan, Utah has an undeniable appeal as the sort of vehicle that takes you back to a different time. With its tapered hood, curvy exterior, and rough-and-tumble demeanor–this old workhorse has all the patina-clad character you could ask for from a panel truck.

Apparently, it was originally a two-tone vehicle with a green body and black fenders. A.J. French purchased the vehicle in 1947 (the title for which still exists today) and turned it into his shop truck, painting over the green shade with a maroon red and adding the details of his business on the body.

After the business closed up sometime in the 60s, the truck was moved to a garage near French’s residence and left to sit for twenty years before being sold and shipped down to Utah. From there, the eBay seller claims a friend of his bought the truck, which was immediately sold to the current seller. After so much neglect, the Chevy was given lots of maintenance, including new oil–which hadn’t been changed in decades–new pushrods, a new condenser, and new set of spark plugs for its straight-6 216 motor.

Other than that, it seems this brash Bowtie has kept everything else intact, from its patina to its interior.
