71 Chevrolet C-10 Pickup, Long Wide Bed, 305 V8, 350 Turbo trans. 5-lug, power steering, manual disk brakes. I have a power brake booster and brackets that will go with the truck.

A good daily driver, not a show truck. Runs and drives great!

New bumpers, new dash bezel, new clear side markers, nice interior, good dash pad and seat, carpet, etc. 

Bedslide in the bed has been taken out, but will go with the truck, and a soft tonneau cover that opens on gas struts and also unsnaps and rolls up for use with tall loads.


I have two of these trucks, one is a project that I am getting close to having back on the road. I bought this one to drive while my orange truck was in pieces. Once the orange 71 is running I no longer need this one so it is available.

Camaro 20 inch wheels with near new rear tires, fronts are about 30%. Shiny paint, but it was intended as a daily driver so the bodywork was not done to show standards, they painted over some small dents and dings, etc.

Problems:

The 305 short block was professionally rebuilt and blueprinted about 60,000 miles ago, but they put used heads on it and now the valve seals are starting to leak so it puffs out a little smoke when you first fire it up. I have a pair of 350 GM crate motor heads that came on my project truck's Goodwrench crate engine that have never been run. These are BRAND NEW heads from General Motors, not rebuilts, that I will let go with the truck for another $200 if you want them. Heads are not for sale by themselves.

The exhaust is in awful shape, it was a bad custom job to begin with and did not fit well, it has at least one small leak, is up against the frame in a couple of places, and needs re-doing. I have a good used pair of Hooker headers and mufflers with turndowns that will fit this truck for another $150 if you want them. Headers are not for sale separately.

The heater controls in the dash have been replaced and look great but don't work correctly and will need to be sorted out. The radio hole in the dash has been hacked.

Has the wrong lower radiator hose on it, it works but does not fit well at all and needs replaced.

Has the wrong shifter linkage on it and will not allow you to pull it down into low or second, just Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive. Current linkage is off a Chevy passenger car of some kind. Does not hurt driving the truck but should be changed at some point. I have the correct linkage and it goes with the truck.

Has a new passenger side front fender, but they put it on incorrectly and the inner fender won't line up. You can see it in some of the pictures. Will need to be adjusted. Has some adhesive or putty of some sort on the bottom of the new fender that does not show up well on the pictures that will need to be cleaned off.

Starter is going, it still works but don't have as much oomph as it used to, so it will need replacing soon. I may change it if I can get a weekend that is not way cold or rainy, but it still starts the truck so I have not been in a hurry on it.

I like this truck and was going to do some stuff to it when I got done with the other truck, so I bought a brand new 3 inch front / 4 inch rear drop springs and an adjustable track bar from Classic Industries. This is the maximum drop without using drop spindles on the front. They are still in the original boxes. Entire setup for $300 if you want it along with the truck. Not for sale separately. If I sell the truck without any of the extra parts listed, I may sell them through other auctions later so watch Ebay for them.

I also have a set of 7 X 15 stock truck rally wheels with rings, caps and usable tires if you prefer. The Camaro wheels do not bolt directly on these trucks and have to have thick adapters and spacers to fit correctly. I have been running them with no problems for the last 6 months or so, but some people don't like adapters so I felt I should mention it. I will knock $800 off the price if you don't want the Camaro wheels and put the rallies on instead.

If you don't want the bedslide and tonneau cover, I will knock off some on the price and keep them as well.

Thanks for taking the time to read!!

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.
