1972 Chevrolet K10 Custom Deluxe Vintage 4x4 Restored With Short Bed No Reserve on 2040-cars
Metropolis, Illinois, United States
|  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. |

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If 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.
Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt class action suit proposed, Tesla stock could outperform in 2015
Sat, Dec 27 2014A class action suit has been proposed against General Motors for a steering problem in the Chevrolet Volt. The plaintiffs claim that a defect can cause the steering to freeze intermittently, and that General Motors either knows or should have known about the problem. The case, filed in New Jersey, also claims that defective parts are replaced with the same or similar parts, which are also defective. The plaintiffs say that claims for the 100-plus-member class exceed $5 million. Read more at Law360 or at BigClassAction. Tesla Motors stock (TSLA) has risen after weeks of losses. It gained 5.4 percent during the week ending December 19, when it closed at $219.29 per share. Since then, it rose slightly more, closing at $222.26 on December 24. Morgan Stanley lowered its target price on Tesla stock from $320 to $290, predicting lower sales on the upcoming Model III than expected before, but still called Tesla a good long-term investment. Analysts at CNBC predicted Tesla to be the best performing stock of 2015. Read more at ETF Daily News. Oslo- and New York-based architecture firm Snohetta has designed a zero-emissions house that also charges an electric car. The ZEB Pilot House, built in Larvik, Norway, uses a solar panel on the roof to power the house, which also provides enough excess energy to charge an EV. To make the most of energy most efficiently, the house uses smart technology to use as much energy as it can once it's harvested. This means one can turn on appliances like the washing machine remotely while the sun is at the optimum angle in the sky - perhaps during mid-day when the residents are at work. The house also uses organic materials and is designed to save as much energy as possible. Read more at Wired.
