I am selling my personal truck, a 68 Chevy C10, since we put less than 700 miles on it last year. It just doesn't get driven and enjoyed like it should and we have too many demands on our time to be able to do so
It is a 1968 Chevrolet C10 with a lot of parts replaced to make it more reliable and driveable. It is by no means a show truck but you can get in it and drive the wheels off it and have some fun with it.
The motor is a 350 with just a few add-ons. It is a stock engine with a dual plane Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold, Holley 600 four barrel carburetor, stainless steel headers and an upgrade to factory HEI with custom fit wires and wire holders, very clean.
When we were building this truck for ourselves a few years ago, we made some upgrades and replaced a lot of very important parts. The brake system was totally replaced, I mean everything. New shoes, cylinders, springs, hoses, drums and an upgrade to power brakes. The suspension was rebuilt with all new parts. if it was a weaable part, it got replaced. We also added power steering and CPP lowering springs on both ends. Handles great.
New radiator, heater core, blower motor, water pump, hoses and twin front mount cooling fans. It even still has the fan shroud, we don't like them to run hot.
The interior had a new dash pad, new bezel and lens on the factory instrument cluster (fuel gauge, temp and oil work,, speedo is way off), new hearter control panel and all new switches inside. It has a CPP tilt steering column with an aftermarket steering wheel. Tinted glass in the side and vents, not film. The windshield is cracked. CD player with dash mounted speakers. Rubber floor mat, B & M Z-Gate shifter.
The trans is a Summit Racing Turbo 350. It has a stock converter, very well mannered on the street and has good, firm shifts. Custom built driveshaft to compensate for the truck being lowered, no chance of it binding up and busting a tailshaft..
Factory Chevy rally wheels, 8 inches wide, with Mickey Thompson radials all the way around
The truck is a good cruiser and would make a great shop truck. We have enjoyed it the last few years but realized it just was not getting driven like it should and we all know what happens when they just sit around. The new replacement outside door handles have already popped the push buttons, just from not being used (and the aftermarket quality on these things is terrible). Lights burn, wipers work, it has bumpers and a tailgate, starts, runs ,, it just needs someone with time to drive it.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
