1985 Chevy K-10 C/k 1500 Swb 4wd Fleetside on 2040-cars
Oroville, California, United States
Up for sale is a 1985 Chevy Scottsdale charcoal gray with blue interior 4 wheel drive short bed. This truck has spent most of its life in the dry Sacramento Valley near the town of Sutter, California There is absoulutely no rust on this body anywhere. There are only a few minor dents that could be taken out by a dent doctor. This truck was repainted several years ago and needs a re-paint. There is no rust on this truck. The bed floor is in good shape as is the factory rear bumper. There is a newer grille and headlight bezels. Both doors open and close like they should I had the strikers replaced. The plastic bushings on the strikers break off, and they don't close properly if not replaced. . The dash is badly cracked from the California sun and the door panels are faded on the top. The temp gauge is not working and there is no radio. The quartz clock works well. The tilt steering column is nice and tight and the dome light works good.The seat has some tears in it. The power windows work, but are on the slow side. The factory vinyl floor is torn up on the driver's side. The truck has factory GM Rally wheels with new center caps and trim rings. The tires are Goodyear Wranglers 31 11.50 15 and have about 50% tread remaining. The truck has a 5.7 liter 350 that is very strong and runs great. It runs rich at idle and that should go away with a carb adjustment or remove all of the California emmission controls. The ac does not work. The power steering works good. It has a 4 speed automatic overdrive transmission that shifts great. The choke seems to work fine as the engine starts up easy. This is a great 4 wheel drive shortbed stepside. .This is a hard to find California no rust truck. I was going to re-paint this truck, but I have another project that needs to be finished. Please email or call/text (email is best as I'n in a bad phone service area) 530-370-9200 if you have any questions. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I will cooperate with your shipper to make it as easy as possible for them. $1,000 deposit due within 48 hours of auction close. Balance due within 7 days.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
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.
