 I started this project about three years and for the last year and a half, since moving from California to Missouri, it has just sat in my garage.  I just don't have the time to finish it.  You are bidding on a beautiful 1965 Chevrolet C10 short bed truck.  It is a frame off restoration and has absolutely zero rust.  There is no bondo whatsoever.  There was some rust in the floor boards and rocker panels but they have been cut out and replaced.  The paint is white PPG inside and out except for the bumpers and grill, which are gun metal grey PPG.  I am the third owner of the vehicle.  The truck was bought new by Northeastern State University in Talequah, Oklahoma.  In 1972 a doctor bought the truck from the university and owned it until I purchased it from him three years ago.  It sat in his barn for a number of years.  The truck originally had a six cylinder but it has been replaced by a newly rebuilt 1993 Chevrolet 5.7 liter 350 V-8 with Edelbrock 650 cfm carb and K&N air filter charger.  New platinum spark plugs and wires.  The transmission is a 700r4 automatic.  The rear end is brand new with 3:08 gears.  I have nearly everything to finish this truck including a Retro Stereo that connects to iPhone (that fits the existing holes and is digital), all new speakers, new trim, relocated gas tank to the underneath the bed, all new oak bed wood that has already been stained in golden pecan and varnished with marine grade polyurethane with UV protectant and polished stainless steel strips and bolts to hold the bed wood properly in place, brand new Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires and Pacer wheels with 0 miles on them, brand new chrome alternator and water pump, new Edelbrock intake and valve covers, upgraded electronic ignition, new in the box aluminum radiator, polished stainless steel tailgate chains with covers, the interior is all complete and lined with Dynamat, all new chrome door handles and trim, new rubber door and windshield gaskets, ashtray comes with the truck even though it is not installed in the photos, new stainless steel rocker panel covers with bow tie, new seatbelts, new ignition (doors and ignition are all new and keyed the same), all new lens covers for turn signals and tail lights, new pedals, new chrome mirrors, new sun shade visors, new windshield wipers and arms, too many parts and extras to list.  The only things I don't have to complete the restoration are exhaust, radiator brackets, headlights, and the drive shaft needs to be cut down to fit the new transmission but it is present.  This really is a great truck that looks fantastic.  It should run like new once all hooked up.  The reserve is set at less than half of what I have in the truck.  Feel free to email me with any questions.  You will not be disappointed with the condition of this truck.  There are two blemishes in the paint, which are in the pictures.  One on the rear bumper and the other between the cab and the bed on the driver's side.  They are both very small.  All of the work was professionally done by a retired owner of a restoration shop in California.  I visited often while he had the entire truck in pieces and hand sanded each piece before resembling and painting after painting the frame black.  You will not find another truck in this shape.  Deposit of $1,000 due within 24 hours through PayPal.  Balance due within 7 days of close of auction.  You must arrange for transport from Salem, MO to your location.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.

Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.
