Original Numbers Matching on 2040-cars
Ottawa, Illinois, United States
Up for your consideration: an original 1972 Chevrolet c-10 survivor pickup, The truck was delivered to Zscheile Motor Company in Burlington Kansas in December of 1971.... the truck remained there until the second owner bought it and hauled it to Maryland to drive and enjoy it... Unfortunately he passed away a couple years ago and I bought it from his son in law... I purchased it for my father as a surprise gift.... surprise to me my dad didn't want it. So you would be the third owner.... This truck is very cool especially with nostalgic vehicles being the rage right now...the paint is faded and is has chips scuffs and a small amount of rust on the drivers door the rest of the front end and cab are very solid. The only issue of rust is rust through around the inner wheel wells in the bed you can't see from the side you must look in the bed of the truck. It is a rear leaf and front coil suspension truck with newer rear leaf packs in back... and the suspension is in great shape. I put new brakes on rear with new drums and in front... rotors new calipers and pads and of course wheel bearings are new. the ball joints are solid and steering tight. I ran new brake lines and fuel where needed...I wanted this truck to have no issues for years. It has a newer radiator and water pump and fuel pump... I have the original carb air cleaner and points distributer this truck is truly a survivor... Glass is all good & interior complete.... lights work everything functions as it should.... the gentleman before me was almost done with an aftermarket A/C system... only needs a small amount to finish. The engine is the higher horse power one and runs very well...numbers match and still has the diagnostic sticker to prove it The 350 turbo trans shifts and drives excellent and has been rebuilt.... Tires are all good. New exhaust with magnaflow mufflers with the muscle car sound we all hear on tv... I have driven this truck 1 to 2 times a week and it is fun to drive with a lot of hp to get up and go! It is always a head turner and usually have people walking around it where I stop. I have another car that has to get finished and with my dad turning it down... I just want to sell it... if things were different... it would stay... I really enjoy driving it. I have original paperwork all the way back to the original dealership that sold it new... YOU CAN DRIVE THIS TRUCK HOME... NO warranty you must come look at it to make offers... bring cash... no bull on the you will pay me extra for shipping garbage.... I Don't deliver... shipping can be considered truck must be paid for first....along with shipping. truck is for sale locally...reserve the right to end auction early. The best form of payment is cash... no trades or checks could do a wire transfer from your bank to mine... truck goes nowhere till my bank says I am good to go.

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.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
