Napa, California, United States

Condition to disclose: This is a daily driver, mostly in town, but I do take to SFO airport and when returning from work I am in traffice for 2.5-3 hours with no issues, no overheating or such. Just lots of thumbs up when I'm on the road. Paint is original as seen in pics, no bondo, truck is nicely straight except passenger door has some minor dings on it. Doors and cab have drill holes from old camper mirrors and old tie down hooks on bed. Under carriage looks its age but nothing beyond that. The cab needs a new mat if you like but i feel it matches the rest of the truck. The seat have some holes but again match the patina of the truck.

Condition the good: Original motor replaced with another new/rebuilt 350. About 260HP with motor additions of Edelbrock aluminum intake and carb, plus new Magnaflow Dual Exhaust, truck sounds real nice. At the same time as motor work the large radiator was rebuilt, along with brakes, and tranny rebuilt. All this within the last 8-10 thousand miles. Truck is very presentable and reliable. I've had more people ask me to sell this vehicle then any other I've ever owned just because of the cool factor. Also note: all new belts, and radiator hoses, plus also a new Optima red top battery not shown in pics.

Features: C-10 trim all present. Ralley wheels and tires have 90%+ thread. New dash pad. New radio and single dash speaker, radio looks old school but has MP3 feature. Bucket seats with factory center console. Instrument panel all works and has desired tach. Tilt steering column. Original factory green tint glass. All lights, blinkers, and interior components work. Strong newer motor and great sounding Magnaflow dual exhaust. 15x8 Ralley wheels with newer BF Goodrich tires. New/rebuilt motor and tranny, no leaks in the drive way!!!

History: I bought this a few years ago as I always wanted a Chevy short bed truck. When i bought it the gentleman I bought it from flipped it from a family that had owned it for 39 years. It needed a lot of work as explained above. This truck is really cool as it sits and the only things I would do would be to replace front bushings to ease up the squeeking if that bothers you, but the truck drives very tight as I did replace the front sway bar bushings, and maybe replace the floor mat, but again, it matches the trucks patina. This truck is very reliable and what I like is it has no leaks which is tought to do with these old trucks. This truck is very reliable on a daily bases.

Shipping: This is for local pick up only. Buyer will have to make his own arraingments.

This truck is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end listing at any time.

This truck is being sold as is, where is, and no warranty of any kind is expressed. You buy it its yours as is.

Thank you.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.
