1977 CHEVROLET SILVERADO STEPSIDE, SHORT BED PICK-UP

I want to start by saying that....I love this truck! I've owned a handful of Chevy Trucks over the years, and this one is the nicest looking 73-79 Stepside that I have ever seen. I purchased this truck 6-7 years ago, with the intent of my son (then 11) falling in love with the vintage car/truck hobby and showing the truck. It was a great idea - safe, with lots of real sheetmetal surrounding the driving position..... and NO back seat!  But somehow the vintage car bug seemed to skip over him, as it seems that now that he is 17, only Porsche's and BMW seem to catch his eye?! GO FIGURE!  However, maybe this is a blessing in disguise, as this truck deserves to be babied and enjoyed.......not taken for granted by a teen who doesn't appreciate it like I did! (when I was growing up, my parents first 'new' vehicle was a '77 GMC pickup, with the same interior as this truck - and I spent many a memorable day in the middle of that giant bench seat with my big brother!).

 OK, enough family babble and reminiscing. Now, about THIS truck.... First of all, this is a FULLY LOADED Silverado (top of the line), with LOTS of factory options.....including:

 

  • Air Conditioning
  • Power Steering
  • Power Disc Brakes
  • Power Windows
  • Power Door Locks
  • Cruise Control
  • Tilt Wheel
  • Dual Gas Tanks
  • Cargo Area Lamp
  • Tinted Glass
  • Wood Bed
  • AM/FM CD Stereo with upgraded speakers
  • 10 Disc CD Changer (behind seat)
  • 17" Coddington Wheels
  • BF Goodrich G-Force Tires
  • Nearly Flawless Interior (seat has tears, but new seatcover is included)
  • and Only 78,310 ORIGINAL miles.

The two obvious flaws are the original vinyl front seat is torn on the drivers side.....and the dented upper and lower grill molding trim pieces.  I have the following replacement parts on order now (and they will be included with this sale):

  • NEW 'upper and lower' grill moldings
  • NEW factory style vinyl seat cover (same color), to replace the current cover with minor tears.

The truck runs great, and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere.  I will say that I have not used/tested the cruise control (it is all hooked up, but I don't know that it works).  This is truly a great find.... and a great buy at the reserve that I have set.  If you want any additional photos or details, please ask!  I am happy to provide you with as much information and detail as you may need to give you confidence in your purchase.

Call with questions (805) 3 nine 1 - 0509.   Or email me, at hotrodranch@live.com.  My name is Scott. I am selling it because I have 18 cars, and need to get down to 10 or so..... I encourage you to view this truck (or have it inspected) BEFORE purchase! It is located in Paso Robles, California (half way between Los Angeles and San Francisco, on CA Hwy 1010. Please do not bid if you don't intend or have the funds to buy. The truck is sold as is without warranty or guarantee. I will reasonably assist with pickup or delivery of truck. All shipping costs will be the responsibility of Buyer. $2000 non-refundable deposit due within 72 hours of auction close. Balance due within 7 days of auction end.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
