up for grabs is a neat old 1965 Chevrolet C-10 (1/2 ton) that came from the factory fairly rarely equipped in that it still has its #'s matching original 283 V8 and is a factory automatic, and it has the rarer and more highly sought after big rear window and is a Custom Cab truck. It is a longbed but it had a camper on it most of its life so the bed is in rare beautiful shape w/ most of the wood still in it, perfect undented inside panels and a perfect tailgate. This truck has an uncut radio hole with the original AM radio still in it, and no rust above the visors or outside the cab roof which is hard to find on a big window truck. Some kids had the truck for a while and they took the camper off and removed the original 2bbl intake and carb in favor of an aluminum intake, and when the truck was sold they kept the carb, so it needs a carb to run. Needs a radiator put back in it too. Everything else is there and will be easy to get running again. Was last driven approx 5 yrs ago. Details below. Call with questions 256 486 1988

The GOOD: The bed is in unusually nice shape and has a perfect tailgate and inner box. The truck is a Custom Cab so it has all the cool chrome stuff and aluminum grille. The 283 V8 is said to run well and has the ultra-rare "WE" suffix code which denotes it as a correct 65 truck 283 w/ Powerglide trans. Has the original factory V8 rear end. Has no rust through in the roof or inside above the visors. All glass is good and back window is factory "Soft Ray" Tinted glass (very rare). The radio hole is uncut and the original radio is still in it. The whole truck is very straight with only 1 paintjob largely sprayed directly over the factory red paint. Has the rarer deluxe guage package instead of idiot lights. rust in the cab floor along the sill plates is normal and will not be too bad to fix.

The BAD: The cab needs what is called "outer cab floor" patch panels (see LMC truck, Jim Carter or other aftermarket catalog) inner and outer rockers and the front cab support on the drivers side all replaced. Needs minor rust repair to the hood's nose towards the pass side park light and pass side rear support area. Some of the bed wood is rotted out. Truck needs a carburator, tune up parts and a radiator to run. Will certainly need a brake job too. Needs rust repair to both front fenders and some average door bottom repair. Has a thin area of bondo (not thick or reconstructive) on the drivers qtr behind the wheel opening - otherwise appears to be 99% bondo free. This was used to smooth a light dent - when you feel behind it you can feel no dents or serious damage - very straight actually.

Look at the pictures and I think you will see this truck is begging for a restoration and will make someone a very beautiful truck for a lot less cost than a lot of poorer condition trucks you see like it for this price range. Call Steve 256 486 1988 to come see it or ask questions....

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.

Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
