71 Chevrolet C-10 Pickup, Long Wide Bed, 305 V8, 350 Turbo trans. 5-lug, power steering, manual disk brakes. I have a power brake booster and brackets that will go with the truck.

A good daily driver, not a show truck. Runs and drives great!

New bumpers, new dash bezel, new clear side markers, nice interior, good dash pad and seat, carpet, etc. 

Bedslide in the bed has been taken out, but will go with the truck, and a soft tonneau cover that opens on gas struts and also unsnaps and rolls up for use with tall loads.


I have two of these trucks, one is a project that I am getting close to having back on the road. I bought this one to drive while my orange truck was in pieces. Once the orange 71 is running I no longer need this one so it is available.

Camaro 20 inch wheels with near new rear tires, fronts are about 30%. Shiny paint, but it was intended as a daily driver so the bodywork was not done to show standards, they painted over some small dents and dings, etc.

Problems:

The 305 short block was professionally rebuilt and blueprinted about 60,000 miles ago, but they put used heads on it and now the valve seals are starting to leak so it puffs out a little smoke when you first fire it up. I have a pair of 350 GM crate motor heads that came on my project truck's Goodwrench crate engine that have never been run. These are BRAND NEW heads from General Motors, not rebuilts, that I will let go with the truck for another $200 if you want them. Heads are not for sale by themselves.

The exhaust is in awful shape, it was a bad custom job to begin with and did not fit well, it has at least one small leak, is up against the frame in a couple of places, and needs re-doing. I have a good used pair of Hooker headers and mufflers with turndowns that will fit this truck for another $150 if you want them. Headers are not for sale separately.

The heater controls in the dash have been replaced and look great but don't work correctly and will need to be sorted out. The radio hole in the dash has been hacked.

Has the wrong lower radiator hose on it, it works but does not fit well at all and needs replaced.

Has the wrong shifter linkage on it and will not allow you to pull it down into low or second, just Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive. Current linkage is off a Chevy passenger car of some kind. Does not hurt driving the truck but should be changed at some point. I have the correct linkage and it goes with the truck.

Has a new passenger side front fender, but they put it on incorrectly and the inner fender won't line up. You can see it in some of the pictures. Will need to be adjusted. Has some adhesive or putty of some sort on the bottom of the new fender that does not show up well on the pictures that will need to be cleaned off.

Starter is going, it still works but don't have as much oomph as it used to, so it will need replacing soon. I may change it if I can get a weekend that is not way cold or rainy, but it still starts the truck so I have not been in a hurry on it.

I like this truck and was going to do some stuff to it when I got done with the other truck, so I bought a brand new 3 inch front / 4 inch rear drop springs and an adjustable track bar from Classic Industries. This is the maximum drop without using drop spindles on the front. They are still in the original boxes. Entire setup for $300 if you want it along with the truck. Not for sale separately. If I sell the truck without any of the extra parts listed, I may sell them through other auctions later so watch Ebay for them.

I also have a set of 7 X 15 stock truck rally wheels with rings, caps and usable tires if you prefer. The Camaro wheels do not bolt directly on these trucks and have to have thick adapters and spacers to fit correctly. I have been running them with no problems for the last 6 months or so, but some people don't like adapters so I felt I should mention it. I will knock $800 off the price if you don't want the Camaro wheels and put the rallies on instead.

If you don't want the bedslide and tonneau cover, I will knock off some on the price and keep them as well.

Thanks for taking the time to read!!

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
