!972 Chevy C-10..its a work in progress...I have sunk a lot of money In the frame...I have every receipt for everything that I bought for this truck. I will start with the title of the truck...I do not have one..i bought the truck in Georgia which does not require a title on trucks this old...just a registration, which I have, along with a bill of sale and a print out of the last owners registration history. With that said...the truck is in pretty decent shape..again the frame has been completely redone, new everything, down to the wheel bearings...the bed has had some work done as well..new tailgate and roll pan, they are both welded up, the bed has been sanded inside and out, mostly to the metal, primered , bed coated underneath and painted underneath..inside the bed has been sanded, primered and also bed coated for protection...there are new full moon caps on the wheels, the truck has been lowered 5 inches in the rear and 3 1/2 in the front. The cab is in really good shape, no rust in the floor at all, still has original paint, none missing..all the glass is still in the truck and all in great shape. the front clip and fenders are not on the cab, but are in decent shape, I think there is a little rust in the front bottom fenders..all the parts are here but most are not attached to the truck..the bed is attached. most of the the pictures were taken today, some are from when the frame was redone, before I put the bed back on... the truck is a little dirty . I started this project with my kids, but they have lost interest and so have I. im not trying to get everything I have invested, but would like to recoupe some of my investment...a lot of the work is already done, especially the frame..because it is completely redone...if anyone would like to make a reasonable offer, please feel free to give me a call at 423-591-5876 or send me a message...I am willing to deal, but I would still need money up front to hold the truck. feel free to ask any and all questions. thanks...

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.
