Your are looking at an all original, unmolested 1968 Chev C10 short wide bed, big back window. This is a very rare configuration and the most sought after, they only made this front clip with the sloped hood and the Chevrolet lettering across it in 1967-68. This is a 2WD and full coil spring suspension, which makes is super easy to drop and modify the suspension. This truck has never been messed with, the paint is original and has never been repainted, it has a really nice patina which I buffed to bring out the character. If you're looking for that rat rod look then this truck has it. It was originally sold at Leo Rice Motors in Gooding, Idaho, I got it from a guy who had stored it since 1989 which is 24 years it sat and not in circulation or on the roads. I brought it all back to perfect mechanical condition; new brake master cylinder, new brake shoes, drums turned, new brake wheel cylinders, new aluminum radiator, new battery, new fuel pump, took the fuel tank out, completely cleaned it, all new rubber on all systems, fuel lines, radiator hoses, belt. I bought all new bearings and seals, rebuilt the front axles/spindles, rebuilt the carburetor. Basically brought it all up to speed mechanically while leaving the nice patina finish. This truck is in it's raw form, has the 250 cubic inch inline six, 4-speed tranny, no power steering, no power brakes, just absolutely as simple as they come, which is what makes it so great. It's starts right up first time with the manual choke, purrs like a kitten, goes down the road smooth as glass for a 45 year old truck. If you want that authentic raw experience of the old world vehicles in their purest form, this is your truck. Dash is all original and uncut for a modern radio like you see so many times. It's nice to see one that was well taken care of; no idiots have got a hold of and modified and rigged. It's truly a great truck to leave as is and enjoy, or an excellent starting point for a full resto. I require a $1000 non-refundable deposit 24 hours after the auction ends, please if you're not serious don't waste your time, my time, and all of the serious buyers. Buyer is responsible for all transportation / shipping expenses, I would like it picked up no later than 2 weeks after the auction ends. Please contact me prior to bidding if you have questions or would like to resolve any concerns. I don't have it for sale locally so you don't have to worry about me pulling the rug out from under bidders to end the auction early, it will run for the duration of the auction!

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups
Mon, 14 Oct 2013General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
