1979 Chevrolet K10 Scottsdale Pickup 4x4. 21k Original Miles! Nice Truck! on 2040-cars
Pontiac, Illinois, United States
|
Up for bid is a beautiful classic Chevy truck. Its a 1979 K10 Scottsdale with 21,251 miles on it! This truck was a barn find from a nearby town. The young man had it handed down to him from his grandparents where it sat in a barn for several years and he was moving to California so he had to sell it. The part that really sucks is that he took the original carburetor off and replaced it with an edelbrock. Along with a open air breather. It has a brand new msd cap and rotor, along with new napa plug wires and A/C Delco spark plugs. Other than those few things this truck is as far as i know all original. I have the original wheels and tires that are not pictured but i can post them at a later time. I have these nicer aluminum wheels on it now that came from an 85 chevy 4x4 from the factory. This truck runs good. It has electric choke. The transmission shifts flawlessly. Everything works. It has ice cold air conditioning that has recently been converted to R134. Their was nothing wrong with it, it worked perfect with the R12 we just updated it to R134. Heat and defrost work perfect as well. The truck has a newer pioneer cd player with usb and audio in ports. This trucks runs down the road very nice. Everything is nice and tight no play in the wheel. Its like driving a brand new 79 Chevy. The brakes work very well, can stop on a dime. The interior is in very good shape. The dash and gauges are flawless. no rips or scratches in seat. The exterior of the truck is in good shape for the age. Very shiny yet but starting to thin out in areas. Their is also some surface rust. All the panels are rock solid. A paint job wouldn't hurt. The bed is in awesome shape until you get to the tailgate area where their are two rust holes that would need patched and painted (see pics). The hood is beautiful, very glossy and shiny blue but has some rust showing through in the very front. (See pics). The whole truck is beautiful! I cant go anywhere without being stopped or getting compliments everywhere i go. Heads turn every where this thing goes. Newer 31 inch tires that are about 75% tread left or better. This truck sounds good but not loud. Just a single exhaust pipe with a flowmaster muffler. The four wheel drive shifter works perfect in all settings. You must see this truck to appreciate. You can e mail me for more pics and questions. The only reason im selling is because i have to many toys! I dont have to sell but if the price is right i will. I can guarantee you wont find another one like it. So good luck bidding! The truck is local pick up only, no shipping. Sold as is with no warranty. Thanks for looking. Jason.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own
Tue, 22 Jan 2013It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.
