This auction is for a 1970 Chevrolet C10 pickup truck. It features a fresh 350 CID engine bored .030", Crane Cam 268H,rebuilt cast heads, headers, Weiand intake & Edelbrock carb, gear drive timing chain,Melling HV oil pump, HEI ignition system, Flex-a-lite dual fan setup. The engine and transmission have less than 4000 miles since rebuilt. The trans is a beefed up TH350, with shift kit.The motor runs very nicely, no smoke, no leaks. This truck also has a new ClassicAuto Air PerfectFit AC& heat system installed (less than 500 miles ago).
The suspension has been lowered via springs, the front end was rebuilt. The rear end is a 12 bolt with 3.55 gears and was rebuilt .The truck recently had a power disc brake conversion (front) done as well as new rear brakes. It also had a power steering conversion done as well, these conversions have less than 1000 miles on them.The tires are in good shape and are mounted on 15" 6 lug Rally wheels. The truck rides and handles very nicely.The undercarriage is pretty clean ,detailed and presentable.
The body was repainted in 2011 according to previous owner,it is a metallic red that looks more maroon than red. The paint could use a proper wetsand & buff to cut some obvious orange peel and smooth out the paint surface. The only body issues I see are on the roof, they smoothed out the rear seam on roof and did some rust repairs in the rain gutter areas (typical C10 rust) that look like they are bubbling back out. There is also some surface rust on inside of roof that was not properly repaired and will need to be addressed.I have been associated with this truck since early 2012 and these issues were present then and have remained in the same stages since. These are the only areas that I see any issue with. There are also a few surface scratches on exterior that will easily buff out as they are not thru to base coat.The hood is a fiberglass 3" cowl hood, the tailgate has been shaved, the rear has been rollpanned.The tonneau cover fits tight and does keep the bed dry. The bed has an upholstered pad(removeable) . The exterior trim looks to be in great condition.
The interior is very nice, very recent upholstery job. The seat is tweed & vinyl , the headliner matches as do the door panels. The gauge cluster is all new Autometer analog gauges (just done). The wing windows have been eliminated as well, the rear window is a slider.
All in all this is a very good starter hotrod pickup. All the heavy lifting has been done with over $25,000 invested over 2 owners. It is a truck that can either be driven the way it is or spend a few more bucks , fix the roof and take it to the next level, either way its an awesome deal!
I am representing the owner in this auction, I have done a lot of work to this truck and know it very well. If you have any questions you can either email thru this ad or call me during the day at 954-782-2263 evenings at 954-401-3480 ask for Bob

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC
Sun, 06 Oct 2013American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.
Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
