1970 Chevrolet C-10 Custom Truck Rebuilt 350 Engine, 90% Restored, New Ac. Alarm on 2040-cars
La Joya, Texas, United States
|
A brief history on this beautiful truck: I traded a fully restored 1970 Chevrolet Nova and cash for this truck and drove it from Houston Tx. in 2012 and immediately went to work on it as it was at around 50% complete. I drove to a mechanic whom I trust and had him do the complete tune up, suspension inspection and installing of new breaks front and rear. After this was complete, I had him eliminate the clutch fan and added electronic fans with a temperature regulated relays. I went crazy and got on LMC online and began ordering as many new parts for this truck and mechanic added them. Installation of new air condition components, hoses and new compressor came next, as it's a must have with our Texas heat. Around two months ago, engine piston gave out and had the whole engine taken out and rebuilt at Border Engine in Mission Tx. and mechanic assemble, installed and now runs strong and still has less than 200 miles on it. I wanted this truck for my dad but he has mentioned to me he's always wanted a 67-69 Chevelle and I am willing to make this happen for my Dad so I am selling this beauty. This truck is a very dependable daily driver as I drive often and get a lot of attention and people interested in it. Once you see the pictures, only true truck enthusiasts will understand how much time and money has been spent to make this beauty to the 90% condition its in, other 10% in my opinion would have been a different choice in paint color as this would've been my next and last project for it. Please feel free to look at the pictures I have uploaded as you may see how truck is now. If you have any specific questions please feel free to ask and I will answer them as best as I can and if it involves me asking previous owner from Houston Tx. I can also ask him as we still stay in contact and he's been very helpful in answering my questions through out my 2 years of owning this truck. 1970 CHEVROLET C-10 CUSTOM PICKUP VIN #: CE140S1243556 MILES: Reads 83,939 but newly rebuilt original engine with less than 200 miles on it ENGINE: CHEVROLET 350 CID V8 TRANSMISSION: Manual transmission (3 on the tree) OPTIONS: -Trucks original 350 4 bolt main newly rebuilt engine (less than 200 miles on it) with manual 3 on the tree gears -Truck bed and undercarriage sprayed with undercoating -New Optima battery, starter, water pump and alternator has been amped up as well. -22" Panther Juice 5 Chrome wheels 6 LUGs -Many extras to mention PLEASE CONTACT ME TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO INSPECT, TO MAKE OFFERS, GET YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED, ETC.

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
