Up for sale is a classic 1966 Chevrolet C-10 pickup truck. The truck is primarily used for car shows and casual cruising.  Purchased from previous owner who had it for 14 years. This truck is a very nice example of a driver quality vehicle. The truck has SEVERAL new parts and countless hours of work put into it.  It is not perfect, and therefore is priced accordingly.  Please read the entire description because I like to be as detailed as possible.

Engine: SBC 350cu V8 built and professionally installed by Walker Custom Performance in Hiram, GA.  Engine has performance roller rockers, aluminum intake manifold, Edelbrock 4 barrel carbuerator, Hooker Long Tube headers, custom H-pipe, and dual Flowmaster mufflers.  At same time, Walker also installed a Turbo 400 transmission with B&M shift kit.  Engine has been dressed up with new chrome valve covers, and a new chrome air cleaner.  Engine has been converted to a serpentine belt set up with alternator.  I was told this came from an 87 Chevrolet Truck motor.  This truck has also had front disc power brakes added as well as power steering from the same 87 donor truck.

Exhaust: Hooker Headers with True dual Flowmaster mufflers

Wheels: 15" MB Motoring Wheels (they resemble Weld drag lites with larger holes) - These look just great on this truck. Wheels are new with no curb rash.

Tires: Falken Sincera SN828 P225/70R15

Interior: Has brand new professionally installed custom upholstery black vinyl on seat and door panels.  Also has new carpet, new floor mats, new door weatherstripping, new chrome sill plates, new glove box insert, new kick panel trim plates, new inner door handles, new window cranks,  new Billet Steering wheel, and a new dome light. Has aftermarket oil pressure and water temperature gauges installed. The factory speedometer and fuel gauge are working.

Exterior: Has brand new front chrome bumper and like new rear bumper.  all new bumper brackets front and rear.  New chrome grille, new chrome headlight bezels, new chrome headlight trim rings, all new headlight adjusters and hardware.  New chrome front turn signal bezels.  . Bed wood is brand new and has been refinished and reinstalled using all new bed strips and hardware.  Bed has had recently applied bed liner coating.

Paint:  Tri-coat Pearl White paint. Good driver quality paint job. Not perfect, not show truck paint. There are a few spots on the paint that are not perfect. Some areas have been touched up.  Some spots of rust beginning to show underneath the paint.  I've looked over the body of the truck pretty throughly.  The truck has some rust in it. (In my opinion if any tells you a 1966 truck that has not been frame off restored doesn't have rust I would be concerned).  None of the rust is of major concern to me.  The floor has been previously patched and is very solid.  Rockers and wheel wells have had work on them as well.  Some of the work is nice, some of it looks amatuer, but as an overall piece this truck is still a very nice, very straight head turning truck.  I went to the Sherwin Williams auto paint store and has some touch up paint mixed for the truck.  Buyer is welcome to have it.  The outside of the truck was painted in 2010.  Inside of cab was painted a dark gray last year. The outside of truck has also received new outer door handles, new cowl/hood seal, new C-10 emblems, new antenna, new tailgate chain protectors, new outside mirrors, and a new fuel neck grommet. 

Radio: New Kenwood KDC-108 AM/FM/CD player with new Kenwood 6.5" speakers in doors

Misc:  Truck has a 12 bolt rear end with a new chrome diff cover.  The suspension has been lowered with a new CPP lowering kit.  Lowered 3 inches in front and 5 inches in rear with new coil springs and shocks.  Note: Truck has a GMC tailgate on it (indifferent to me, fits like it should.  Was on it when I bought it).  Also, because of the front disc brake conversion the front wheels are 5 lug and rear wheels are 6 lug.  I've priced this truck based on whats been done to it, it's condition, and the overall market for these. This is a really nice truck. It has a few minor issues that have been disclosed. PLEASE ask any and all questions you might have about the truck. Please do not bid on the truck if you do not intend to buy it. The truck is currently registered in the state of GA and I have a clear GA title in my name.

Thanks for looking!

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
