You are bidding on a 1966 Chevrolet C-10 Fleetside Short Bed Pickup with the highly desirable big back window. This truck starts, runs & drives just fine. This truck has a 250cid L6 motor and a 3 speed manual on the floor.

The body on this truck is in fine shape for it's age. Only one rust spot on the drivers side fender. I included a picture. Both cab corners and all body mounts are in excellent condition. No issues there. Cab floor is also in excellent shape. No rust, no rot. I included some pictures of these areas.

I have replaced or upgraded the following on this truck:

  • 2" drop Mcgaughty front spindles
  • 2" lowering kit in the rear
  • Brand new front disc brake conversion using 11-1/2" truck rotors  with 5 on 5 lug pattern
  • New rear axles to convert from 6 to a 5 on 5 lug pattern w/new axle seals and fluid change.
  • New rear shoes and hardware
  • New dual resevoir Master Cylinder and Proportioning valve
  • New brakes lines to the rear
  • New fuel system including tank, sending unit, fuel pump, inline filter and newer Carburator
  • Complete new wiring harness including modern fuse block from American Autowire. This wire kit was for this truck, not a generic kit. Kit inlcuded all new switches and light sockets
  • New battery, starter, & alternator
  • Complete new gauge cluster and sending unit
  • Reupholstered bench seat
  • New Hurst shifter
  • New American Racing Torq Thrust Wheels & brand new tires
  • Complete engine tune-up and all fluids changed

This truck was repainted around 2007. Not professionally done, but still looks pretty good. Kinda has that "old school" look to it. (please see photos)

The body on this truck is very solid, only one rust area as mentioned on the driver side fender. (see photo)

No cracks in any of the glass. Everything works as you would expect for a 1966 vehicle. The only issues I found were the wiper motor and the gas gauge. The wiper motor does not appear to work and the gas gauge reads full all the time due to a mismatch in Ohm resistance between the gauge and the sending unit. The gauge company can fix this if the gauge and sending unit are sent to them. I didn't worry about it as i was able to track gas usage by mileage. This truck gets a solid 16-18mpg.

This truck is a great ride and gets a lot of attention on the road and at car shows. It would make a perfect shop truck or a good start to a full restoration

This vehicle is for sale locally and the seller reserves the right to end the listing at any time.

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!

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
