NO RESERVE…ORIGINAL is the key word here. A ONE OWNER for 47 years. I purchased about a month ago from the second owner to sell it, he drove it for a year or so and made some minor repairs that I will share below. This truck is complete, solid in every way and completely untouched, unpainted, unaltered, etc. and it runs great. It has been my daily driver. It has a 6 Cylinder 230 ci engine with 100k miles and the 3 speed on the column. Clutch is good and shifts through the gears with no problem and stops straight.. It has little rust considering 49 years, mostly all of it is just surface patina. It has stayed in the South Carolina weather for its entire life. It seems like it was just exposed to some humidity based on the surface patina. 3 of the 4 cab corners are in excellent shape. The floor boards are solid and the undercarriage is in great condition. The Original Spare tire is still under the original oak bed (which still has some of the original black paint). I would not suggest running the spare tire of course, It’s the tire that came with the truck. The truck comes with the ORIGINAL Protect-A-Plate Warranty Book, the ORIGINAL Manual, and the ORIGINAL Paper dealer plate. The original paper / cardboard cover is still over the gas tank and under the dash. Also, all gauges are working as they should. Nothing here is aftermarket or altered. It’s the perfect restoration, daily driver, or rat rod candidate. It’s hard to go to Home Depot without having to answer questions about this beauty and it is getting impossible to find one of these in this condition, with this natural patina.

WHAT HAS BEEN DONE
Rebuilt Carburetor
New Cap, Plugs, Wires
Valve Cover Gasket
New Heater Core and Fan Motor
New Muffler and Tail Pipe
WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE
Leaks a little oil around the oil pan
Back right blinker lights up but does not blink
A couple of springs on the drivers side bench are collapsed, does not affect driving.
Let me set some expectations for you about this truck. If you have not driven a 1965 Chevy C10, here is what to expect: Always get the truck up to temp first before you drive down the road. These are referred to as “Cold Weather Chevys” and they like to operate around 175-200 degrees. Prepare to work a little harder in this truck as It has power nothing. It is not geared to be driven much faster than about 65. It will however do 55 all day long and you can take it anywhere. The gear set up in these trucks are not synced up, so you will have to spend some time getting used to where you need to be at what rpm. It’s a fun truck to drive.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General 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.
