 My name is Arekluz I've been restoring classic cars and trucks since 1984 and I do my job with a passion. I only buy one owner vehicles and/or acquire them through estate sales.

I have never sold a car or truck without fully completing it but considering the popularity of these trucks and how easy they are to work on, I figured I will let the new owner customize it to there liking. For the right price that is. I have nine other trucks in the works and this one will get sacrificed.

This is a 1963 Chevrolet C-10 with a 4.8L 292 Straight Six (I personally think these were the best engines ever built, power plus economy, with a four speed on the floor. One owner truck that lived its whole life on a ranch in Lake Elsinore Ca. With it's all original "Patina". Engine was rebuilt roughly six years ago and was used to haul trash to the dump every week till the owners passing.

What I have done....

Fresh fluids, rebuilt carburetor, clean and acid wash engine and under carriage, remove rotted wood bed, remove rear bumper, lower the truck a couple of inches, install four new shocks, install new glass pack exhaust and install four used steelies with white walls I had laying around my shop and been driving it pretty much everyday (very good on gas) and enjoying the compliments. I document all my work with photos. I can supply them to the winner on request.

What it needs...

I have removed both driver and passenger side door glass.

Window regulators are bad.

Weather stripping is bad.

Window cranks on passenger side missing.

Radio missing knobs.

Oil pan gasket bad (has small leak).

Everything on the truck works other than the radio (speaker probably rotted). Floors are solid. The truck gets attention. You can fly in from anywhere in the nation and drive her back home for the right price.

I will be happy to answer and post all questions. Thank you and Good luck.

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette

Mon, 07 Oct 2013

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics

Mon, 20 Aug 2012

After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

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.
