1971 Chevrolet 1/2 ton longbed C10 2WD truck from the dry Central CA valley, Bakersfield.

This truck must go because I offically now have too much going on.

January 11 - Preemie twin boys were born 5 weeks early and stayed in the ICU for a week

January 31 - Threw a rod in my 1970 C10 project truck, now need to replace the 350.

February 4 - My father was admitted for issues with his heart, will have open heart surgery next week.

 

I have absolutely no time to spend on this 1971 C10.  I looked long and hard for a clean and all original Cheyenne.  If I were to hold onto this truck, it does need a couple of small things.  Driver's glass needs to have the track glued on and installed.  Glass is good, but is wedged in the track with a piece of fuel line.  Original owner was a little creative on the wiring.  Instead of using the key, there is now a butterfly switch with a push button start.  Lights and turn signals do not work, but speedo, temp, and oil pressure do work.  If the truck sits for a few days it does drip 4 or 5 times some automatic transmission fluid.  Exhaust is shorter glasspacks, a little on the louder side. Emergency brake cable is not currently connected. 

Tires are absolutely brand new.  Maybe 500 miles on them.  235/75/15 all the way around, 15x7's in the front with 15x8's in the rear.  Original Camaro COPO dogdish center caps.  It has the original GM radio, with a CB mount on the dash.  CB in the glovebox.  Also has the original brake controller under the dash.

Rare truck to find in this condition, from the original owner.  I don't need the cash, just have way too much going on.  So if this doesn't sell for what I think it's worth, I'll store it until I can complete the '70.

Please call or text me at 925 979.8161 with individual picture requests.

If you need this shipped, please create a move auction on USHIP.  Free to sign up, and you'd be surprised how affordable shipping rates are.  I had this transported from Bakersfield to Walnut Creek, CA 94596 for $280.

THIS TRUCK IS BEING SOLD AS IS, NO WARRANTY IMPLIED.

 


On Feb-10-13 at 16:40:08 PST, seller added the following information:

*2/10 EDIT - it looks like the passenger rocker will need some attention.  Not from the inside of the cab, but the bottom of the outside.  There are 4 or 5 holes, about the size of a pencil.  Also, the previous owner pulled the A/C guts out and plugged it at the line at the box on the firewall.


Please email me with specific questions, or specific pictures.

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.
