This is my 1979 C30 1 ton Camper Special 9000 GVW single cab rig for sale. I'm the second owner. I bought it in 1986 with 23,000 miles on it. It has full power. Thats brakes being the hydroboost. Power windows. Power door locks and cruise control. That cruise does not work because of a broken blinker arm. It has the 454 engine and the th 400 auto trans. I rebuilt them both about 70,000 miles back because I was towing my 5th wheel and 22 ft boat during simmers. It has a sliding rear window with the cargo lite. It comes with the towing mirrors from the factory. The interior has been replaced about 15 years ago from Danchuck. Thats the seats, door panels, dash and the carpet. They could use a good vacuuming and cleaning. I never had a radio but I have the GM radio to fit it. The rear brakes and wheel cylinders were replaced about 6 months ago. The ac was rebuild and blows ice cold. Its still the R12 freon. I may include some R12 with the sale so the new owner can keep it the way it was designed. The right front fender shows a small dent that was there when I bought the truck. I never fixed it. Tilt steering works great as does everything else but the cruise control. All the glass if great. No issues with any of it I have a few spares to go with the sale. I have a Silverado dash bezel I was going to use but decided not to. Ended up not liking the Chrome. The wheels are factory chrome and they do have light rust on them. I have cleaned them many times but I will let them show what they are like now. I do have some factory wheel locks. It has a dual fuel tank and each one is 20 gallons with factory installed locking gas caps. This is not a beater truck nor has it ever seen the rust belt. It has its dings but no rust belt holes anywhere like you see so often from those areas. I have the original Quadrajet 4 barrel off the truck to run a differnt 4 barrel. It also is a Quadrajet 4 barrel. Its licensed till April 2015 and the cost here in cali is $169.00 for the year. I have always past smog checks easily too. This engine was designed without a EGR valve in the intake manifold because it was an exempt engine from the factory. The 9000 lbs GVW was to avoid smog and carry a camper. It has a towing package accessory from the factory too. I used a Tekonsha prodigy brake controller but its in my other tow rig and wont be part of this sale. The bed has the RBW slides but they will stay. The 5th wheel hitch is not included. I have a new never used tail gate also. The person I bought the rig from had a camper on this rig and the camper tie downs are going with the sale. This is a really nice truck that could be restored easily and used as a show piece. I'm sure I left out some things but if I recall any O will add them.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4

Wed, 29 May 2013

Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
