1976 Chevrolet C10 Cheyenne Project on 2040-cars
Central, South Carolina, United States
I have a 1976 Chevrolet C-10 ...disc-braked, 4-link, powdercoated, bathtubed, shaved, smothed, air-ride Project for Sale. I started this project in the winter of 2002. I have come to the conclusion that I will not finish it, so here we have an opertunity for someone else. 1) Frame and suspension: Frame has been Super C-Notched with a designed and built custom 4-link for the rear Air Ride system. The front end has ALL NEW parts, balljoints, tie rods, steering link, drag link, control arm bushings, brand new Power Steering Gear Box, and Air Bags. The frame has battery box located on frame off passenger side under bed. Frame was completely sandblasted and powder coated. Air Ride is missing the compressor. I hook an air line and battery to it and the switches are temperarily mounted under bed. It is live on four switches. It will left, right, front, rear, or single lift. All airbag lines are Stainless braided or SS hard line. No plastic lines on this truck. Shocks are polished aluminum on all four corners. 2) Body: Firewall has been completely deleted. The only thing that is coming through is the throttle cable and steering column. I have the Ididit billet firewall bezel for the column (do not have the column). The brake pedal is mounted under dash and does not come through firewall (summit racing). The front inner tubs are fiberglass and I have the custom molds for recreating them if you damage one. The front fenders have been shaved and filled and require one more block sanding and they will be ready to paint. The bed is bathtubbed and shaved and filled with a one piece california skin and pan (that was a fun one to get right), The taillight slot is for an LED 48" taillight witch I have two for this (one clear, one red) both come with the truck. Raised bed floor is designed for a wood bed . The bed is also ready one more Block / sand and paint. The cab and doors are almost done. They are in epoxy because they still need a little attention. Drivers side is done. Passeneger side door gaps to roof line is where I stoped. this area needs about 8 hours to complete. Deleting the drip rails highlights the door gaps. Easy Body man fix. Drivers side is done. Doors need fill and sand at door lock area and then blocked and primed, and blocked. The body is COMPLETELY Rust Free. 3) Interior: The dash is a fiberglass 2 piece (is molded as one, I cut it to get it in and out) This dash has over 200 hours and $1100 in it. I have the mold for this dash and it comes with the truck. It cost $400 to get a professional pull off the mold. Same guy did the fender tubes. All Molds come with truck. The dash was designed for full custom. Steering column mount and Summit Brke pedal mounts are welded in place and are ready for Ididit column (I do not have column) 4) Drivetrain: Rearend is a 12 bolt Eaton posi unit with Wilwood disc brakes and 2 piece wilwood rotors, and Lokar emergency brake kit, SS braided lines. Front end also has wilwood GMIII calipers. Has Electric racing fuel pump and filter system with regulator mounted behind rear housing on frame. NO Motor or Tranny with this truck. It does have the one piece driveshaft and transmission crossmember for an Automatic. Wheels are 19" with 10's on the rear and 9's on front......... Dave (864) 906-2799

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.
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.
