 This truck is a true K10 4x4, but there was no category for that so I it listed under C10. I am the third owner. The previous owner stated  he bought the truck in 1976 and drove it until he reached 100,000 (miles sometime in the early 90`s) and parked it in a shed and bought a newer truck. It has only been driven a total of 293 miles since. The exterior has been repainted in the original medium olive green color with the white added for contrast. It has new inner front fenders, side moldings, bumpers, light lenses, window/cab/door rubber, polyurethane body bushings, decals(engine/jacking/positraction/disc brake), windshield, stainless mirrors(still in box). The mirrors will go with the truck, I decided not to drill holes in the doors for them in case the new owner did not like the larger style mirror. This truck has power steering, power brakes, positraction, gauges, factory tow hooks, (original blue) locking front hubs, and a tire carrier for inside the bed(not installed but goes with). This truck was originally a LONG BED but the frame has been professionally shortened. The bed is all new sheet metal  including both bedsides, front panel, and tailgate, with wood floor added for looks. The cab, doors, fenders, radiator support, and hood are all vintage 1972 GM. The cab has had the rockers, and corners replaced with new metal. This truck is not a bondo bomb it is all steel. The inside has new carpet, seat cover, and dash pad. The vintage jack and AM radio is still there but radio does not work. The heater, gauges, horn, wipers, and lights work. The truck drives and stops as it should. It has new front calipers, front rubber lines, pads, rear shoes, rear wheel cylinders, rear rubber and steel lines The tires were almost new when the truck was parked and hold air fine but they do have some weather cracking. They would be fine for occasional driving but I would not go on a trip and trust them. I show a quarter in the tread for depth. The engine is all stock with a new fuel pump, belts, hoses, wires, coil, and heater core. It still has the front half of the original single exhaust, the rear and muffler is new and quiet. This truck still has its cast iron gear driven transfer case. This truck sold new in Mayfield Ky. I have the owners manual, a dealer brochure, a 1972 accessory brochure, and the metal dealership logo that was still on the truck when I got it. All will go to the buyer. This truck had never been wrecked or painted on anywhere before its restoration. I know there is more, feel free to ask any questions or look at it in person. This truck is sold as-is where-is with no warranty. I require a $150.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hours of auction end. The remainder in CASH(in person) or cashiers check (only if being picked up by transport). If paying by cashiers check the truck will stay in my possession until the funds clear my bank. I am sorry but my bank holds the funds for 5 to 7 days to clear, their rules not mine. I have a clear title in my name and in my hands. Again this was a longbed truck that had its frame shortened, with a new short bed installed. I will add photos of the mirrors, manuals, and tire carrier. No reserve auction please bid to win. I can store for a short time if needed. Also I can assist in loading if needed. This truck is also for sale locally, but if there is a bid on it I will let the auction continue and not sell locally. I will not end the auction early so please don`t ask. If you want it now use the buy it now. I have a lot invested in this truck and I know what it is worth and will not accept any low-ball offers. This is a rare truck and they are not easy to find. Any ??? please ask.

Chevy Corvette Z06, Ford F-150 Raptor join Lego Speed Champs

Tue, Oct 20 2015

Get ready to park some performance machines on your desk: Lego's 2016 line of Speed Champions kits will add seven new vehicles for next year, according to an update to the database Brickset. These include some serious muscle like a Chevrolet Corvette Z06 and Ford Mustang GT. There's also a listing called "Chevrolet Camaro Drag Race" and a very cool combo titled "Ford F-150 Raptor Ford/Model A Hot Rod". Fans of European performance don't need to be jealous, though. The database shows a kit called "Porsche 919 Hybrid and 917K Pit-Lane." Plus for fans of the Four Rings, the Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro and R8 LMS Ultra are also getting their own Lego models. Fourtitude appears to have some leaked shots, if you want to see what these kits will look like. Lego has partnered with Porsche, McLaren, and Ferrari and offers Speed Champions kits for vehicles like the Porsche 918 Spyder, McLaren P1, Ferrari 458 Italia GT2, and LaFerrari. The models in the series aren't as heavily detailed as the massive Mini Cooper or Volkswagen Bus sets, but they make up for that in value. The individual cars retail for a fairly affordable $14.99. The Formula One playset tops the current range at $99.99, but it comes with a truck, racecar and team figures.

New recall issued in 2019 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra brake software saga

Tue, Feb 11 2020

General Motors (GM) has issued a new recall for select 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks that aims to resolve a faulty fix for a previous recall. According to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) campaign No. 20V055000, a software update for the Electronic Brake Control Module (EBCM) could cause the electronic brake assist to be disabled.  The NHTSA first launched a recall for 463,995 Silverados, Sierras, and Cadillac CT6es on December 12, 2019 due to a software issue in the electronic brake control module (EBCM) that could disable the electronic stability control (ESC) and anti-lock braking system (ABS). As a response and resolution to that recall, GM began to reprogram the software in affected vehicles. GM later learned that the fix was creating a different problem. The installed software had its own error that was disabling the electronic brake assist. If customers see “Service Brake Assist” or “Service ECS" diagnostic warnings, they should park the vehicle and have it towed to a dealership, GM warns. While GM was going through the process of testing, pinpointing the issue, determining action and working with the NHTSA, safety experts have criticized Chevrolet and GMC for not reacting promptly and appropriately.  According to the recall, 148,055 are now affected, all of which do not meet the standards of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 126, "Electronic Stability Control" and 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems." To fix the braking issue, GM will once again reprogram the software. GM began notifying owners of the recall on February 10, 2020. Related Video:
