FULLY RESTORED 1963 CHEVROLET C-10
IF YOU DON'T LIKE BEING COMPLEMENTED AND GIVEN THE THUMBS UP ALL THE TIME THEN THIS IS NOT THE TRUCK FOR YOU!
Let's start off with the heart and soul of this bad a** truck - it has a 7.4L 454 cubic inch engine with headers and dual exhaust. I would estimate the horsepower to be in the 450 range. It is loud as can be and rumbles like a beast. The engine starts up on first try as it should. I wouldn't be hesitant to drive the truck on a 500+ mile road trip.
It is matched to a 3 speed auto transmission with a B & M shifter. The gears shift smoothly as they should without any issues. It has freeway gears so you can cruise on the freeway without wasting a ton of gas at high RPM'S.
I recently upgraded the radiator to an aluminum one with new thermostat and built in transmission cooler. The truck runs around 180-190 degrees which is exactly where it should be.
The paint is in good driver condition and looks really good but it is NOT show quality if it was I'd be asking for over 35k for this truck (which I'm no where near). RUST FREE!
The bed has been professionally rhino lined which looks really good - throw anything in there without worries of destroying the bed. The rear tailgate has been welded and shaved flush to make it 1 piece (see pictures). I think it looks great this way. It gives it a clean flush design. The tailgate does not open any longer (but it is an easy conversion if you wanted to do so). There are some small paint cracks in this area (see pictures).
There is power steering and power disc front brakes.
I just installed a brand new front disc kit by McGaughy with a new master booster w/ proportioning valve. There is less then 250 Miles on these brakes. The truck stops perfectly.
The truck is lowered on Hotchkis suspension (4" in the front and 6" in the rear). This is also brand new with less then 250 miles on the suspension. It rides smooth without any rubbing or bumping. It makes the truck look and ride amazing.
All the window and glass seals along with the weatherstripping have been replaced everywhere. So there is no cracking anywhere on the trim giving it a clean new look.
The front wraparound windshield is new as well. These 1963's are rare because of that wraparound design. It also has the rare BIG WINDOW for back which is also rare - most of these were the small windows that in my opinion don't look that great.
There is a new grey carpet kit and newly upholstered vinyl black front bench seat and matching sun visors.
The gauges are autometer and they all are working/functioning properly.
It has brand new rims and tires all around which look amazing on this truck. 20" Chrome Foose rims (20x10 in the rear and 20x8.5 in the front). The tires are Hankook (275/35/20 rear and 245/40/20 front).
All the door hinges, locks, strikers, window regulators, and hardware have been replaced as well.
Basically this truck needs absolutely nothing to be done or fixed.
If you want an investment truck to drive and have fun with and not worry about it breaking down or putting money into it then this the the right truck for you. All the work has been done for you already. Just hop in turn the key and enjoy!
I will miss this truck but I just got started on a new project which requires funds.
Please do not hesitate to call or email me with any questions. Please leave me a voice mail if I do not answer. 818-356-6788.
Clean car title in hand.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.
Now, if we could just get more rear-wheel drive V8 coupes into showrooms....
Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning 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.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
