I have too many projects, so I am trying to downsize. This is a rare truck with a lot of potential. I don't have enough time for multiple projects, so I am selling a few. More will be listed soon.
This auction is for a 1967 Chevrolet C10 short bed (clear title). It is a rescued barn find that has been cleaned up. A frame-off restoration has been started. Also included is a 1969 Chevrolet C10 long bed (clear title). I also have a 1992 GMC Sierra SLX short bed step side that I am including (title signed in wrong place - easy to remedy if necessary).
The 1967 Chevrolet C10 is a one year only cab (small back glass). The fenders are also unique in 1967. It will be a nice looking truck when done. I was in the process of restoring this truck for my wife. It was going to be pink (bright metallic pink). A frame-off restoration was started and not completed. It is a very solid truck for the age. A lot of the hard work is done. The frame is undercoated. The inner fenders are undercoated. Part of the cab is undercoated. The bed needs undercoated. Minor rust repair needs to be done before the rest of the cab and the bed can be undercoated. The firewall and inner fenders are painted pink. The radiator support is painted black. The inner fenders and radiator support were removed from the 1969 Chevrolet C10 parts truck (were very nice). The fenders are nice and would take minimal work to prepare for paint. The cab is in decent shape. The cab corners needed to be replaced. Someone tried to build a cab corner for the passenger side...I would recommend using the cab corners from the 1969 C10 (need minor rust repairs) or ordering new cab corners. Both rocker panels were replaced. The floor is solid but needs a couple of small patches. The floor supports were rusty. Both supports on the passenger side are replaced. Both supports on the driver side should be replaced. I have the rear support but can't find the front support. I will look for the other support and will include it if I find it. I have new bolts to bolt the cab down. The bed is solid but will need a few small patches. There are also a couple of small holes in the bed floor to repair. The body is assembled but not all bolted together. Everything will need to be adjusted and bolted together better. The bed is not attached (just sitting on the frame), so it will be easy to remove and repair. It was loosely assembled for transport. There is a lot of potential here.
The truck has been lowered. The front springs are attached. The rear springs are sitting in the proper place but not attached. The parts truck should have the necessary parts. I have a few new bolts to include. The front shocks are new. I would swap the rear shocks with the parts truck (they are not very old). The truck will have a nice stance after the drivetrain is installed. The tires are new...and the polished aluminum wheels are almost new (look really nice)...bolted on with new lug nuts. It has the big-n-little treatment (taller and wider in the rear - shorter and narrower in the front). 31x10.50x15 in the rear and 215x65x15 in the front mounted on 15x8 wheels.
The intention was to paint the truck bright metallic pink with black stripes. I have the pink paint and will include it. I was going to use the steel bumper from the 1969 C10 on the front and a steel roll pan in the rear (new one included). It had a nice rear bumper with a receiver hitch, but that was removed. It is included just in case you prefer to use it. I also have a really nice front bumper and new brackets if you prefer chrome bumpers. The front bumper that was removed was a little rough but would make a nice core to have rechromed. I was going to change the doors (the doors from the 1969 C10 are really nice). The interior was going to be pink and black as well. I was going to replace the carpet and dye the seat (which is really nice for the age). I was considering using the step side bed from the 1992 GMC. It is in great shape other than one bed side (rear bumper damaged it). I have a nice replacement bedside though (easy to change). The tailgate is pretty nice...the floor is solid and straight...nice bed. I have a plastic roll pan that I can include (used but needs a little work). The 1967 C10 would look nice with a step side bed (I have seen it done many times). I was told that the 1992 GMC could be used as a donor so the 1967 C10 could be converted to 5-lug wheels. It is currently a 6-lug truck (built that way when new).
I also have an engine and transmission to include. The engine is a freshly built 350 that was driven a handful of miles in another toy before being removed and painted a different color so it could be used in the 1967 C10. The intake and valve covers were changed at that time. It has an aluminum 4-barrel Edelbrock Performer intake and aluminum Edelbrock valve covers. Edelbrock intake gaskets were used on the intake. Molded rubber reusable gaskets were used on the valve covers. It has a chrome fuel pump block-off plate so an electric pump can be used. I don't have a fuel pump for it. I also don't have headers (I may have a set of cast exhaust manifolds but will have to look). I have an Edelbrock 650 carburetor and Edelbrock air cleaner to include. All brackets, pulleys, and accessories are included. The transmission is a freshly built Turbo 350 that was built for a 1970 Chevelle and was bolted to an engine only for mock-up (no miles). It is supposed to have a mild stall converter. The 1967 C10 has a 12-bolt rear end. It previously had a 396 engine and a turbo 400 transmission.
I am including the original owners manual and supplemental materials in the original bag (for the 1967 Chevrolet C10). The last picture shows the 1967 C10 prior to being disassembled. A little work and some paint will make this a sweet ride.
These trucks are also for sale locally...so I reserve the right to end the auction early. I will add a buy-it-now price if necessary. I prefer to sell everything as a whole package, but I may be willing to split things up. This auction is for everything.
Basically everything you would need is included. I am sure there are a few little things you will need, but the majority is here. I am including many extra parts for 1967-72 Chevrolet trucks. A lot of the hard work is done. It needs to be finished and enjoyed.
I will be happy to show you the trucks if you would like to give them a personal inspection. Also feel free to contact me with questions.
I am willing to deliver everything for a small fee...but I prefer to have the new owner pick up. I will help you load if you need help. Contact me with questions.
Thanks and Happy Bidding.

2016 Camaro gets most revealing tease yet
Mon, May 11 2015Chevrolet started its long teaser campaign for the 2016 Camaro by just revealing the exhaust manifold and front frame, but as time has passed the company has slowly unveiled more. In the latest glimpse ahead of the pony car's May 16 debut, we're actually getting to see the model's profile completely undisguised. As suggested by the recent tease of the rear and hood, the 2016 Camaro wears a sharper, more angular design than the current model. This is especially the case when you look at the taut lines making up the rear. Chevy claims that the new shape underwent 350 hours of wind tunnel tests to be able to generate left lift, improve cooling and reduce wind noise in the cabin. A smooth underbody pan is among the aerodynamic tweaks, and it runs from underneath the front grille to the center of the Camaro. Chevy asserts that all of the changes at the front help reduce lift by 30 percent. Related VIdeo: 2016 Camaro is all about the Aero Total aerodynamic lift improved by 30 percent for improved stability 2015-05-11 DETROIT – After 350 hours of wind tunnel testing – often 24 hours a day – the new Camaro will slip more easily through the wind, and drivers of the Camaro SS will experience a marked improvement in reduced aerodynamic lift. These changes illustrate the lengths the aerodynamics team went to for improved performance, stability, cooling and lower wind noise intrusion "The importance of aerodynamics increases exponentially as we increase vehicle performance," said Kirk Bennion, Exterior Design manager. "As engine output increases, we need more engine cooling. As acceleration and top speeds climb, we need to reduce lift for better high-speed stability. However, we cannot make any changes at the expense of increasing drag, which can hurt fuel economy. "To balance these different aerodynamic targets, we tested literally hundreds of changes on the new Camaro, millimeters at a time." For example, the initial design called for the lower grille bars to be set at a 20-degree angle to the horizon. However, after meticulous testing, the team improved engine-cooling airflow by 1 percent by shifting the angle to 13 degrees – a change that achieved the airflow target while maintaining the original grille design. And rather than a traditional front air dam to reduce aerodynamic lift, the team developed a flush belly pan that stretches from the front grille to the center of the vehicle.

Updated Chevy Silverado spied, possibly with aluminum components
Sat, Apr 11 2015Chevrolet is readying a refresh for its trusty Silverado pickup, and these spy shots give us our first glimpse at what might be in store. The front and rear fascias of this prototype are covered, obscuring some styling tweaks (with LED accents up front). More interestingly, our spies suggest that many of the Silverado's body components could move to aluminum with this mid-cycle update. The hood will go from steel to the lighter alloy, and it's possible the front fenders could benefit from the weight-saving material, too. Ford's latest F-150 is extremely aluminum-intensive, and by switching the construction, 700 pounds was trimmed off the truck's weight. We've already heard that General Motors is working with a similar plan for its next-generation fullsize trucks. Beyond that, expect the smaller 5.3-liter V8 to ditch its six-speed automatic transmission in favor of the eight-speed unit that's already mated to the larger, 6.2-liter V8. Neither transmission will stick around very long, as the trucks will likely adopt a 10-speed automatic around 2017. Look for the updated Silverado to debut later this year, likely as a 2016.5 model.
