1978 K-10 4x4 Short Bed 43,0xx Original Miles on 2040-cars
London, Kentucky, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1978 K-10 4X4 Short Bed Scottsdale. Original mileage is 43087 Dual Tanks. The motor was rebuilt before I bought it and has approximately 600 miles on it. I'm the fourth owner of the truck. The first two owners was kept in the family. This is what I have done since in my possession. When I first bought the truck the engine was painted blue, now that great if it's a ford. But since it's a Chevy I made some changes. I removed all accessories to include alternator, intake, power steering pump, water pump, pulleys, belts and brackets, hoses etc etc. I wire wheeled the block and heads and painted it Chevy orange with POR-15 (while inside the bay I didn't remove the engine to do this, not a perfect job. But looks pretty good. What is nearly brand new is the following probably less than 100 miles. Water pump Black powder coated alternator Black powder coated power steering pump Nascar Edition Black powder coated intake Gooseneck Chevy Dress Kit to include Air cleaner and valve covers Distributor Cap, plug, and wires Fuel pump All Pulleys All belts All hoses Headers Fan Alternator bracket Power steering bracket New Battery New oil pan New Transmission pan I have a brand new set of transmission lines that haven't been installed. As you can see from one of the pictures there is a piece of hose where the line broke. This was like that when I bought it and it works but it's not right so I bought new lines just need to be installed. Now I'm not 100% sure if the entire engine (block heads)is original to the truck, I didn't do the rebuild so I can't answer that. To my knowledge the transmission or the transfer case hasn't been rebuilt. The seat is original and has no tears or rips. Has a rear sliding window. Tint needs to be redone (like that when I bought it) Has a spray in bedliner Headlights work Wipers work Speedometer works Outside turn signals work Brake lights work Now that we have talked about the good stuff lets talk about what it needs. There was a cd player in it I removed that and bent the knob tabs back into place with intent of buying a retro style radio with mp3. The door panels look kind of ruff was going to get them replaced at one point. The major issue is the electrical plug for the dash has a broken tab. I have a replacement for it, so it will need to be installed. I discovered this when I went to change the bulbs in the dash. This was also the reason why the second fuel indicator never worked (has duel tanks). So without this being fixed there is no way the fuel gauge will work. The dash turn signals and anything dash related wont work. Blower motor looks to be out. Sliding window latch will need to be replaced. I think I covered everything but If I missed something I'll make a revision. Driving the truck is up to you depended on how far were you going would depend on whether I would drive it or not. It drives great I had on the highway at 80 mph today. Inspection of the truck is by appointment only. Thanks for looking

Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.
GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
