For Sale, 1964 C-20 long bed NOT a C-10 no option on Ebay for a C-20 Chevrolet pick up. I am the 3rd owner and my Dad was the 2nd. It came original with a high torque 283 V8, later it was replaced with a 327 V8 out of a 1969 Chev Impala. At the time of the engine swap a new clutch was installed. Starts and runs and drives with no problems, However due to the engine swap the RPM's in the last gear run high, 55mph or 60mph is the fastest it can manage without over revving engine. Different Trans or rear end might be the answer. The truck has been a Utah truck, so harsh winters means lots of salt which equals rust. Doors, floors, bed, rockers and tailgate all have rust and bondo. This is a labor of love or a great Rat Rod project. Brakes are drum front and back. It has a 4 speed manual transmission, however 1st gear is a grandma gear (not used in everyday driving). Someone installed extra fuel tanks but I don't think they are usable, I had plans to remove them but never did. It does still have original fuel tank behind seat, and that is the one to use. Gas gauge does not work, all other gauges do work. High beams don't work might be the switch or head lights themselves. Regular headlights work fine. Heater works well and I did buy new cables and levers for the heater controls from LMC Truck. I never installed them and if I can find them, I will throw them in for new owner to install (no guarantees). This truck being a C-20 or 3/4 ton also has overload springs on the rear. Wood in bed is original. I just put in a new battery, your welcome!! I bought new tires and wheels several years ago tires only has a few hundred miles on them, however they are old in age. I have had the truck garaged since I got it and just recently moved it out due to a different truck needing the garage. Glass is in good shape and I had the windows tinted by a professional. No radio, power steering or air conditioning. Its not currently registered so I don't like to drive it far, with that being said SHIPPING IS ALL UP TO YOU. If you have questions just call me, Its hard enough buying a vehicle on the internet with a few pictures and a brief description! Bart (801) 514-5738

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
