I'm selling my Chevy C10 short wheel base to help fund a Corvette project I'm working on.  This truck is in really good condition for it's age, even compared to some of the late-model used trucks I've looked at recently, take a look at the pic.s.

  • Truck has only been driven 6,020 miles since 2008 - very seldom used (was purchased in August of 2008 with 101,767 miles)
  • Truck has SBC 350 w/Holley 4-barrel carb and a very mild cam upgrade - tranny is the standard TH350 (auto), there seems to be a very small leak on the tranny and I believe it's the yoke seal.  I have a spot about the size of a quarter in my driveway from where it sat for a while.
  • Original engine was replaced by previous owner, work performed locally at a very reputable family-owned garage.  Engine was replaced at 92,533 miles, so the new engine only has 15K miles on it.
  • Rims & Tires where upgraded at 104,422 - roughly 3K miles on new tires.  Original Rally wheels are available if buyer would like them to be included in the sale price.  American Racing rims are 7" up front and 8" in the rear
  • Gas tank was replaced about 3 years ago due to old age
  • Mufflers where replaced due to old age around the same time as tank (truck has true dual exhaust to mufflers, has nice deep sound but not too loud or obnoxious)
  • Brakes are nice and firm
  • Power steering is very smooth, no whining or shuttering when rotating the wheel 
  • Interior is in really good condition; door panels look good, carpet looks good, no rot or rips, seat still looks good and sits good
  • Console still looks great, gauge cluster looks great and everything works (even the clock still works)
  • Radio was upgraded to a nice Pioneer CD/USB stereo with nice speakers behind seat (I think CD has a remote with it, should be in glove box)
  • Heater fan works, Defroster works, A/C doesn't blow cold
  • All of the glass is in good shape, nothing broken or chipped up - seals are all still tight
  • No rust around the back window (inside or outside)
  • No frame rust damage (see pics for underneath picture or bed and frame)
  • Chrome bumpers still look great
  • Exterior still looks pretty good - it's starting to show some clear peel on the hood and there is some rust starting to come through in a couple spots on the bottom of the doors and some small areas around the rockers - it's not riddled with holes or anything like that, just needs to be mentioned
  • Paint still looks pretty good overall - hasn't been buffed out in several years so there's a lot of gloss to be gained by someone that has the time

I'm open to reasonable offers, but please don't waste your time or mine sending me offers for 1/2 or 2/3 - the truck is for sale, not to be given away.  Obviously there are no warranties (expressed or implied, written or oral), truck is sold as-is.  I will not accept a return or provide any refund - no exceptions.  Buyer is responsible for any and all shipping expenses, I will help load onto transporter for free.  Truck comes with a free and clear title - title in-hand.

PAYMENT:
I require a small deposit of $300.00 to be paid via Paypal within 24 hours of purchase, no exceptions unless discussed and approved first.  Final payment is due within three (3) calendar days of purchase, no exceptions unless discussed and approved first.  If final payment is not made within three calendar days, then the deposit becomes my property and I retain the rights to re-list the truck or sell the truck at will.

By bidding, and/or making an offer, and/or purchasing this truck you are agreeing to the terms above.

GM veteran Bryan Nesbitt tapped to head Buick design

Sat, Jun 6 2015

General Motors styling veteran Bryan Nesbitt (pictured above) took over a new role on Monday as executive director of global Buick design and global architectures. Andrew Smith, who previously did that job and also coordinated the look for Cadillac, has remained in charge of the pen at Caddy with this shift. Nesbitt rose to prominence when he designed the Chrysler PT Cruiser, according to Automotive News. He joined GM in 2001 and has been there ever since in multiple high-level roles. In 2007, he was appointed vice president of design for North America and was later briefly general manager of Cadillac in 2009-2010. Nesbitt took over as the vice president of GM's international operations design in China in 2011. This shuffle also moves Ken Parkinson, currently styling boss for Chevrolet trucks, to China as design vice president there. In addition, John Cafaro becomes the person in charge of the look for Chevy globally, rather than previously splitting that role between cars and trucks with Parkinson. GM Global Design Leadership Changes – effective June 1, 2015. Bryan Nesbitt, Design Vice President, GM China will repatriate to North America and assume the position of Executive Director, Global Buick and Global Architectures. He will be located in Warren, MI. Bryan will be the design Champion for Buick in the US and China. Ken Parkinson, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Trucks and Global Architecture will assume the position of Design Vice President, GM China. He will be based in Shanghai, China. Andrew Smith, Executive Director, Global Cadillac and Buick Design will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Cadillac. He will continue to be the design Champion for the Cadillac brand. In addition, he will continue to lead the Global Color & Trim team. He will be based in Warren, Michigan. John Cafaro, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Cars will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Chevrolet. He will be the design Champion for Chevrolet. In addition, John will lead the exterior components and accessories team. He will continue to be based in Warren, MI. The roles and responsibilities of Helen Emsley, Mark Adams, Carlos Barba, Clay Dean, Michael Simcoe, and Teckla Rhoades remain the same.

Made in America | These cars top the most-American list

Mon, Dec 5 2022

The car with the most American/Canadian content for 2022 is ... cue the drumroll ... the Lincoln Corsair, in both standard gasoline-fueled and plug-in hybrid guise. Both versions of Lincoln's compact luxury crossover earned a score of 86 — due to 72% of its parts coming from one of the two aforementioned countries — in the American University Kogod Business School's annual "Made in America Auto Index." Last year's leader, the 2021 Ford Mustang GT (when equipped with a manual transmission) fell all the way to 22nd place with a 50% rating due to a switch in transmissions sourced from Mexico. In case you're interested, that puts Ford's red-blooded American ponycar below vehicles like the Kia Sorento, Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class SUV and Lexus ES. If you're wondering how an American car that's assembled within the borders of the United States could rank below a model from a Korean, German or Japanese automaker, well, we'll let Kogod explain: "The components of the index are based on research performed by the Center for Automotive Research in Ann Arbor Michigan regarding the economic value of different components of auto manufacturing. For example, the highest ranked cars are made by U.S.-based manufacturers using American engines and transmissions, and with a high AALA percentage of U.S. and Canadian parts." There are 25 total vehicles listed in the Top 10 (there are lots of ties this year). Here's the full list: (1) Lincoln Corsair: 86 (1) Lincoln Corsair PHEV: 86 (2) Tesla Model 3 Long Range: 82.5 (3) Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray: 81 (4) Chevrolet Colorado: 80.5 (5) Jeep Cherokee Latitude 4x4: 80 (5) Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk: 80 (5) Tesla Model 3 Performance: 80 (5) Tesla Model Y: 80 (6) Dodge Durango Citadel: 79.5 (6) Dodge Durango Blacktop AWD: 79.5 (7) Honda Passport Trailsport: 78.5 (8) Ford F-150 2.7L, 3.3L, 5.0L: 77.5 (8) Ford Ranger: 77.5 (8) Ford Bronco automatic: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model S: 77.5 (8) Tesla Model X: 77.5 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 3.6L: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee L LTD: 77 (9) Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 3.6L: 77 (9) Chevrolet Camaro automatic: 77 (10) Honda Odyssey: 76 (10) Honda Ridgeline: 76 (10) Honda Pilot: 76 There's a whole long list of reasons for the above scores, with seven criteria that include factory location, headquarters location and where its various bits and pieces come from.
