1974 Chevrolet Super 10, C10 Cheyenne 1/2 Ton Pick-Up, Dark Red, Regular Cab

Selling for my friend who is on active duty and will be gone for about 3 years and I cannot keep it at my parent's house for that long.  He is open to offers and we are showing the truck (by appointment) at 6pm Tuesday and any time on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday so we can close the bidding Monday. 

Location: Perris, CA 92571

This truck has the following modifications and most were done in August 2012:

Engine: 350 V8 5.7L Engine - Upgraded Engine
Carburetor:  Edelbrock Carburetor - New
Replica Boyd Coddington Rims and Brand New Daytona Tires
Runs Excellent.  Many items replaced such as starter, fuel pump, oil pump, hoses, radiator, and he has documentation for many of the items.  That is pictured as well. 
This is a great truck for the person that wants to lift or lower it.  It is stock suspension currently. 

I try to assess any item for what I notice are very good things about the item and any flaws or errors.  I would recommend you take a look and test drive it as soon as possible.  It fires up quick and t sounds like a fire breathing monster!
My friend is open to offers.  If the bid reaches a certain amount, I will stop selling it in other markets so please make sure to bid as early and often as needed - or Just Make an Offer!  Email me with questions via eBay or text me at 951-238-0162.  Ask for Kase. 

Pros: 
Rebuilt and swapped 350 engine!  600 miles on the new engine and about 52,000 miles overall on the vehicle. 
New Edelbrock Carburetor! 
New fuel, water, and oil pumps! All gauges work (except fuel gauge).
New starter!  All lights and signal lights working great and windshield wipers working great too. 
New replica Boyd Coddington style wheels
New Daytona tires with maximum tread life
Power Steering!  GREAT Brake System! 
Great glass!  Seats Three and all original seat belts. 
98% dent and scratch free!!!
No Smog Needed and Clean Title 
Original CA Blue Plates!!!!!!!! 

Runs Excellent! Numerous documents including engine replacement papers, and Pep Boys services for other items. 

This is now a Classic Truck and a rare Cheyenne find. It no longer has the areas for the trim so it is a smooth body - dent free and mostly scratch free as well.  Original bed was left unpainted.  

Cons:
Paint:  Not great.  The person that did it was careless and appeared to have done it hastily and not in the correct conditions.  However, the body is mainly scratch and dent free which is amazing!  Whoever did the body work - great job.  No kudos to the painter however. 

Driver door locking mechanism is not great.  Needs an extra step. 
Windows roll up fine but then rolling down all the way is an issue.  Sometimes they get stuck about 1/2 way down.  You can easily access the inside of the door by removing the panel but I have not had time to take a look and see. 
Tranny:  Original but old.  Please keep that in mind.  It was not replaced like engine and carb, pumps and starter and all the other items. Will need a service periodically.  Shifts Great. 
Suspension:  Does make a pop on the passenger side.  I checked it out and the tie rods need replacement but if you get it lowered or raised, those are included in the parts package and will be replaced regardless.  It drives and turns fine however and the power steering is great but it will make a pop occasionally.
Interior:  Old - could use a carpet kit, seat cover, and dashboard cover.  All are about $110 online per item.  Very cheap and makes it very easy to fix up and look good again.
A/C and Heater:  Not working/Disabled.
CD Player:  None.  There are 6x9 speakers in the panels but no CD player. 
One Fuel Tank:  Since the owner was preparing to lower it and beef it up, only one tank on the passenger side is enabled.  The driver side fuel tank is disabled.  I have fueled it up and it is kind of low to the ground.  It takes some getting used to in regards of where to hold the nozzle, but it hold about 9-10 gallons just fine. 

My personal opinion:  It will take about $600 to $1,500 to get her looking like a champ. Some of the issues are issues that are not pertinent to its utility but if you want the $15,000 valuation, you will need to put in some extra work. If I had the money, I would buy it - unfortunately, I do not...  If you want to have me do the replacement, you would need you to buy the parts and we can work on a deal for labor. 

Again - No Reserve!!!  Submit your Offers and we will review them!  If you want, come down and check her out!  It is awesome and the sale proceeds will go to a good person! 

Good Luck Bidding.  Sale is As-Is and we have tried to list all the proficient and deficient items that we have noticed in the test drive and while taking pictures.  This is a used vehicle that is 40 years old.  Please keep that in mind.

We prefer Pick-Up.  However, you will need to arrange for shipping.  Truck needs to be picked up in its current location.

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
