Beautiful ’70 C10 Chevy step-side pickup truck with the shop/patina theme was a complete frame off show restore somewhere around 2001. Sometime after ’06, the owner got tired of the truck sitting in a garage and started driving it…..which enhanced the weathering/patina of the truck. Since I have owned the truck, it has been completely gone through in order to make the truck as dependable as possible. This truck is a super cool “driver” that is practical enough for daily or long trips. I know this phrase is way over used, but “I would drive the truck anywhere”……. don’t worry about bringing a trailer to pick it up. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine was not modified as I wanted it to be practical and dependable for everyday driving, get descent gas mileage, and have a retro look. There is not a peck or tick whatsoever in the engine compartment. - 350 4 bolt main engine w/ 350 turbo tranny…truck runs 80-85mph on the interstate with no problem whatsoever -Trans kick-down cable is hooked up and works great - Weiand intake -Coated headers w/ Flowmasters (40 series) -New plugs/wires/oil change...everything in drive train has been recently serviced and is ready to go -Trans cooler installed -3 core radiator upgrade…this truck can idle in the desert for days and not run hot -16-18mpg on average EXTERIOR: The sheet metal of this truck is original (not a Frankenstein creation) and is in excellent shape(perfectly straight)….it only has normal wear that adds to the overall character of a patina vehicle……the truck is weathered, not dented or rusted to death. There is a small ding in the crease of the front right fender(see pics/video)…easy to fix if you want to “slick” the truck….and there are some paint chips/minor stratches from normal wear. All the suspension/steering components of this truck were rebuilt/replaced. I wanted the most practical suspension I could find and to have the lowest stance possible without c-notching, so I went with an Early Classic Enterprise 4/6 drop kit, and stance and ride of this truck is perfect. -Suspension is a 4/6 complete drop kit from Early Classic Enterprise that includes drop spindles, springs, KYB GR2 shocks w/ relocators, super track bar….this kit provides for a killer stance with awesome ride without any shake or vibration at any speed -5 lug with New 20” Boss 8.5 front & back wheels w/ Michelin tires....this truck was built to drive so I went with the same size wheels and tires so they could be rotated properly. -Power Steering & Power Disc Brakes up front with New front calipers/rotors/pads/rear drums and shoes -New bearing carrier -Early Classic hidden hitch with adjustable air shocks in the rear for towing/hauling….very nice feature -Note that this truck has the ‘73-’87 front end suspension upgrade…crossmember / A-arms/sway bar that were professionally installed and lined…very nice upgrade from the ’67-’72 front ends...you can let go of the steering wheel at any spend and it holds as true as a new vehicle -Sway bar with new Moog bushings….sway bars are a must on these trucks…improves handling tremendously -Cab mounts are in excellent shape -Cab corners/rockers/kick panels /all the notorious places for rust on these trucks are in great shape -GM Bahama blue base coat/ clear coat…..beautiful color! -Floor of the bed is showing its age, but again it just adds to the nostalgic appeal of the truck - You can tell the truck was a complete frame off restoration around 10-12 yrs old based on the undercarriage...it is very clean with only minor surface rust....no undercoating or paint trying to hide anything under this truck. A couple of the undercarriage pics have been attached to listing and represent it extremely well. I have tons of undercarriage pics that I can text...just let me know -The doors shut as good as a new Chevy truck....see video -Note that the Shop Logo is superficial to the clear coat, and with a little lacquer thinner, can be removed in about 5 mins. INTERIOR: The interior is very clean and the floor is extremely solid with no rust. -Cab has been insulated with sound mat/jute -New floor mat -Original style AM/FM radio with cd/iPod/mp3 upgrade & new speaker - All cab/glass seals are in great shape -New 3 point(shoulder) seat belts from Brothers …also installed a middle lap belt -New Houndstooth seat cover -New gas tank with sending unit -All glass is in perfect shape -Windows work great and wing glass opens perfectly -All gauges work properly NEEDS: -Parking brake cable needs to be attached inside cab….cable does come with truck. -Currently has a small trans leak where speedo cable attaches Note that if I get a chance, I will address both of these small issues before truck is sold, but I can’t guarantee that I will be able to get to them….so truck is being sold as is.
Check out the video of this truck on YouTube at Overall, this is a beautiful truck that is extremely nice and super clean with a lot of character and personality. The truck is shop/patina truck as is, but the sheet metal/body on the truck is in such great shape it is ready to block sand and paint if you want a traditional show truck. There is one small ding in the crease of the front passenger fender(see pic./video) and the front bed petition has a slight bend…these quirks add to the overall appearance of the patina style, but if you want to “slick” the truck, they will need to be addressed. If you like the shop/patina style trucks, this one is super nice. It was not just thrown and pieced together, and if you see it, you will realize the attention to detail that was taken with this truck. This is a no excuse truck, and I have described it to the best of my knowledge. I am not trying to hide anything on this truck and encourage anyone interested in a C10 to come look. You are more than welcome to send a 3rd party inspector to assess the truck and make sure it is describe accurately. If need be, I will do my best with assisting with shipping of the truck, but the buyer is responsible for setup and all expenses. If you have any questions or want other pics, please don’t hesitate to ask. Serious inquires only! A deposit of $500 is due within 48 hrs. from auctions end with balance due in cash, wire transfer, or cashier’s check from bank(check will need to be verified before truck is released). Vehicle is sold as-is. Clean/Clear title in my name with matching numbers on the original door tag and glove box….. Email, call 606-598-9953 evenings after 5pm, or the best way to reach me is via text at 606-813-2045 ANYTIME.

Stop-start standard in four-cylinder 2015 Chevrolet Impala
Fri, May 23 2014Chevrolet has announced that it will include stop-start technology as standard in the entry level 2015 Impala. The result is a nearly five-percent improvement in city fuel economy, also known as one mile per gallon, up to 25 mpg, combined. The 3.6-liter V-6 Impala will not feature stop-start. The 2015 Impala comes equipped with Chevrolet's 2.5-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine, which will also offer 22 mpg in the city, and 31 on the highway. The 3.6-liter V-6 Impala will not feature stop-start and the mild-hybrid eAssist model from the 2014 MY, which got 29/25/35 combined/city/highway mpg, has been discontinued. Chevrolet spokesman Chad Lyons told Green Car Reports that not even one percent of the 2014 Impalas purchased were the Eco model. So Chevy is trying something different. With a seamless driving experience in mind, the new Impala's stop-start tech features software that governs under what conditions the feature will activate. The engine won't shut off if the car has not reached a speed of six miles per hour, so the start-stop won't be cycling during traffic jams. It can also fire the starter even if the engine has not come to a full stop, which quickens reaction time, particularly in instances of what Chevrolet calls "change-of-mind events." The stop-start function uses information about cabin temperature and humidity as well as battery charge to help determine whether or not to shut off the engine. The 2015 Impala has been engineered to reduce NVH, which will also help create a smoother stop-start experience for occupants, Chevy says. Motor mounts have been updated, and a burlier starter motor will help restart the engine after a stop. The Impala follows the 2014 Malibu as Chevrolet's second vehicle to feature stop-start tech. The four-cylinder model currently makes up over 30 percent of Impala sales. The 2015 Impala will be available beginning this summer, with a base MSRP of $27,735 (including destination charges). And while one MPG isn't a huge difference, neither is the price increase of just $50 for a bit of eco-minded innovation. Read on for more details in the press release below. Chevrolet Makes Stop/Start Standard in 2015 Impala Technology improves city fuel economy by 5 percent 2014-05-22 DETROIT – Stop/start technology will be standard on the 2015 Impala base 2.5-liter ECOTEC® engine, an addition that improves the vehicle's city fuel economy by nearly 5 percent, or one mile per gallon.
Sunday Drive: Tracking Tokyo's top performers
Sun, Oct 29 2017The big news of the week mostly came from Tokyo. All of Japan's biggest automakers made waves at the Motor Show, but the winner of the event has to be Mazda. The big Vision Coupe and little Kai Concept stole the show, won our hearts, and earned a ton of attention for the automaker. We can't wait to see how these two concepts impact the design, engineering, and technology of future production models. Take a look at our mega image gallery post below to see everything in high-resolution glory. Interestingly, the single biggest click-magnet of the 2017 Tokyo Motor Show was the BMW X2. We shouldn't be surprised. Crossovers of all shapes and sizes dominate the American marketplace, and the X2 is clearly the most attractive of BMW's even-numbered, coupe-influenced X models. Plus, it's headed for production, with sales starting in the spring of 2018. Moving past the Tokyo Motor Show, Autoblog readers are apparently very interested in the 2019 Chevy Camaro. Spy shots of just about every iteration of Chevy's muscle car lit up the 'net last week, leaving us very interested in seeing what's hiding behind all that camouflage. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2017 Tokyo Motor Show | Mega Gallery Mazda Vision Coupe | Tokyo Motor Show's big, sensuous 4-door Mazda Kai concept hints at a more muscular, refined Mazda3 2018 BMW X2 crossover revealed, adorned in gold and silver 2019 Chevrolet Camaro: 1LT, SS, ZL1 all spied with updated styling
GM laying off 500 workers to slow Chevy Sonic production
Sat, Oct 24 2015Due to slow sales of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, General Motors is cutting a shift at the Orion Township plant that builds the pair. The move lays off about 500 workers, but most of them are expected to get offers to transfer to other factories, Automotive News reports. The move came just a day after GM announced adding 1,200 employees to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM has been trying all year at the Orion Township factory to align production of the Sonic and Verano with their demand. The automaker first attempted idling the plant several times and eventually resorted to laying off about 100 workers. It also reduced the production rate there. With the huge rise in popularity of crossovers, demand for the plant's small cars is on the downturn. According to Automotive News, there's currently a 116-day supply of Sonics and 100 days of Veranos to sell. Delivers tell a similar tale because the Chevy is off 35.2 percent from January to September, and the Buick does little better with a 27.2 percent drop from the same period last year. While the situation at Orion Township might look rough now, big things are on the horizon. Soon, the new Chevy Bolt electric vehicle will be built there when it hits the market around 2017. Plus, the plant will also get a $245-million upgrade and 300 new jobs for another, unannounced vehicle.
