1969 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Base 5.7l on 2040-cars
Liberty, Missouri, United States
See pics. Third generation pickup (father-in-law to brother-in-law to me) has a remanufactured 350 with about 20,000 miles, Edlebrock carb and intake, headers and many newer parts. Finally decided that a full restoration isn't going to happen and ready to get her out of the barn. Newer tires and brakes. Truck has been in the barn for 18 months but starts and runs. Has a wood bed with a plate steel overlay and all the usual rust.
Small reserve because I'm not giving her away. I'll accept Paypal or cash (but not a check from your secretary accidentally made out for more than the sale amount) i.e. no scammers. 350 V8, three speed manual, 2 wheel drive. NO air. Standard dash (no tach). Clear Missouri title in hand. The good: before we placed her in the barn she passed the Missouri inspection each year and was driven on a routine basis. The bad: been sitting for 18 months. Runs but should be checked out before being driven too far. On Jan-11-14 at 20:36:49 PST, seller added the following information: Forgot to tell you this is a long bed and obviously a fleetside. Here's a list of parts we replaced since aquiring it from the brother-in-law: Remaufactured 350 (but numbers are correct for 1969) all front suspension ball joints front control rods and bushings heater core clutch and throwout bearing brakes wheel cylindars blower motor Eldebrock 4 barrel carb (650 I think) Headers (cheap ones - sounds like one bank has rusted out) dual exhaust shocks master brake cylinder truck floor shifter (was three on the tree) a Chevy AM/FM cassette radio (not period correct but from the late 70s) I plan to get out into the barn tomorrow and take a bunch more pics. On Jan-13-14 at 14:11:19 PST, seller added the following information: Added a bunch of pictures taken today in the barn. Someone asked me how long ago the cab corners and bed arches were replaced - Joe thinks it was about 25 years ago when he got the truck from grandpa. |

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production [UPDATE]
Sun, Jan 25 2015UPDATE: A previous version of this story indicated that Orion Assembly would be idled for seven weeks, from February 16 through April 6. This was incorrect. The factory will instead only be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6. The story has been edited to reflect this. General Motors has announced that the factory responsible for the Buick Verano and Chevrolet Sonic will be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6, with blame being placed on excess supply. The Orion Assembly plant, about 45 minutes north of GM's Renaissance Center headquarters, employs about 1,800 people, but they'll be given a pair of furloughs as inventories of the sub-compact Sonic and premium compact Verano reach 127 days and 84 days, respectively. That works out to 26,600 Chevys and 9,800 Buicks waiting for buyers. According to Automotive News, the compact Chevy sales bested the industry average in 2014, jumping up nine percent versus the the overall segment's eight-percent gain, while the Buick sedan's sales were down four percent. When asked about the shutdown, a GM spokesman told AN that it will "build to market demand," while also pointing out that the company did not comment on production plans.

Porsche 911 tops a list of must-have classics, but No. 2 is more of a surprise
Wed, Aug 9 2023No surprise here: In Europe, the Porsche 911 is the most sought-after classic car. Surprise here: Slip-streaming the 911 in the most sought-after chart compiled by the Car & Classic marketplace is the Ford Mustang. Using the Google search engine as a means to pick the winners, as well as the average prices achieved on the “Car and Classic” website, the venerable 911 was tagged 1.45 million times per month according to data stretching back 15 years. The number of 911Â’s sold though the C&C marketplace was 21,141, at an average price of 58,409 pounds, or $74,300. FordÂ’s pony car, still a popular choice for buyers in Europe, placed second on the list with 1.2 million monthly searches. The average sales price over 15 years was 31,107 pounds ($39,570), and the number of older Mustangs sold reached a total of 8,332. Models that also finished among the charted top 10 include the Land Rover Range Rover, the Corvette, the ultra-classic British favorite Jaguar E-Type and the BMW 3 Series. “Whilst a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS could set you back the best part of GBP500,000 ($636,000), there are many more affordable models, which bring the average sale price of a 911 on Car & Classic to GBP58,000 ($73,800) – the third highest average selling price of any make and model on the site,” explained Dale Vinten of Car & Classic. According to the site, the Jaguar fetched the highest average selling price: a whopping 89,000 pounds, or $113,000. But thatÂ’s peanuts compared to a Series 1 Roadster in excellent condition, said Vinten. For that, “you can expect to spend up to GBP250,000 ($318,000), A Series 2 or 3 will cost less, as they are not as desirable, but in decent condition you can expect to pay around GBP40,000-GBP50,000. Even a barn find 1969 E-Type Series 2 Roadster can set you back to the tune of GBP33,000 ($42,000)." Launched in 2005, Car & Classic is among EuropeÂ’s most popular classic car clearinghouses. It also runs a stand-alone auction site.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
