This truck in very nice to drive . We drive it as much as we can. But the dogs can' t go in it lol - So when I need to go to home depot or just to the store i'll take it . I got the truck from a family that drove it everyday and back and forth from ct to new jersey on the weekends . They had some kids and the truck was no longer their baby and in need of a mini van rather than an old truck . When I got it she needed to come apart and have some much needed body work done . So I lost my mind somewhere along the way and just about ever nut and bolt came out replaced if needed and back together again. I have yet to see another c-10 that looks as fine as this one . I think so anyway and I hope you do to as a lot of thought went into the build . It has all new gm steal fenders, grill, bumpers, rear fenders , rockers, cab corners, and I am sure there is more. The hood is a custom cow hood made just for me . It has kyb shocks , Hotchkis lowering kit . 427 TH 400 12 BOLT REAR . If you have any questions feel free to give me a call. my home number is 860-376-9116 and my cell is 860-367-5399 my name is Dennis . There is so much information i could put here but I suck at typing and would rather tell the story anyway. Almost forgot to say I rhino lined the bed and the doors as I think a truck should be able to be used If i had polished the wood in the bed like everyone does You could not let the truck get wet or sure the hell not put stuff in the bed. The fuel cell is in the rear of the truck and filled in the bed .

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
