Same old story, Great project!, no time to touch it.
I've wanted this particular truck for 8-10 years but the owner wouldn't sell.  Almost 3 years ago he finally sold it to me.  Of course by that time in my life I had a frame up restoration going on, two teenagers that keep me busy with their cars and sports as well as a set of 1 year old twins.  Zero time for myself.  So it sat in my father in law's shed.  3 years later and I haven't touched it.  Bought many parts but never had time to even think about getting the truck out.  Time to let someone else get this truck going.

All original with all the Custom Cab options still there, chrome grill, and chrome accents. 100% original as far as I know.  Still has the open air relays and fiber coated wires under the hood (All electrical will need replaced though). Has not been cut into yet or disassembled so it could be a restoration or full custom. The patina would make for a nice rat rod too. Will need at least 1 cab corner as it has small pin holes in it, a partial cab floor, and the bed crossmembers are rotted.  It was a farm truck so it has dents, scratches and rust. Tail gate has disappeared since I put it in storage. Sat outside for many years before I bought it so there might be rust I'm not aware of.  Will need a full nut and bolt restoration or at least a teardown and rebuild for a rat rod.  

Original 216 is in it and locked up Original Trans is locked, driveshaft removed, truck Rolls good, steering is not locked
Frame is solid. I was planning on cutting 9.75" out of the frame and making a short box but that's up to you, Still factory 3/4 ton length
Has a Nebraska Bonded Title, fully transferable, bond expires in November, after that it's a normal title.

Also included are all my build parts: 
New: 
Mustang II Air bag Front end kit w/ 11" brakes. 
Includes crossmember, boxing plates, spring towers, tubular control arms with ball joints and spacers, t bolts, 2"drop spindles and Speedway 11" brake kit #91031943
Front end kit is missing the Airbags, shocks, tie rods and Rack and Pinion. 
Universal Weld-in Rear 4 link kit. 
Speedway 20 Circuit wiring harness 
Cable throttle pedal.
Universal Small Block Chevy Engine mount kit
Universal Transmissions crossmember

Used: 
I bought a "running when pulled" 235 full oiler with 4sp trans included but Condition is unknown. 
A 3100 (1/2 ton) Spindles and beam axle (thought I was going Beam axle and disc brakes at one time but changed my mind)
Visor (Not a Fulton but nice) 
S-10 Brake pedal & bracket incl booster and master cyl. 
S-10 Steering Column incl intermediate shaft, key, steering wheel 
S-10 Rear end, open 3.42 gears 
Box of additional gauges but they were modified, I was planning on using the guts just incase any of the gauges in the truck didn't work.
18 gallon Poly fuel cell.
And anything else I can find for this truck.

Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine

Tue, Oct 28 2014

As General Motors gets ready to unveil the new Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January, it's starting to reveal a few more details about the updated plug-in hybrid. Today should be fruitful on that front, thanks to an event GM is hosting today that focuses on the new Volt, and we've just had the first bit of new: a bigger engine is coming. Since the beginning, the Volt has used a 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine as a range extender when the battery runs dry. The second-generation model will instead get a slightly larger 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will be built in Flint, MI. That's a step up from the various engines that have been a part of the 2016 Volt's rumored mills, everything from a 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter turbo. The confirmation about the new 1.5-liter powerplant was found in Automotive News, where we also heard again that GM is going to start building the new Volt's electric drive unit in Detroit, moving production up from Mexico. We will have more information on the 2016 Chevy Volt later today.

GM recalls trucks and SUVs for brake pedal problem

Thu, Feb 11 2016

The Basics: General Motors will recall over 473,000 North American examples of the 2015-2016 Chevrolet Silverado HD, GMC Sierra HD, and police pursuit versions of the Chevy Tahoe. These include 426,573 vehicles in the US and 46,837 in Canada, according to Reuters. The Problem: The brake pivot nut can loosen over time, which can render the pedal inoperative. This would be a danger to drivers trying to stop the vehicles. In some cases, the "Service Engine Soon" light might come on. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt, and if necessary they will apply adhesive to it and reinstall the part with increased torque. If You Own One: "We expect to start customer notifications shortly," GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog. Related Video: Transport Canada Recall # 2016053 Recall Date 2016/02/04 Notification Type Safety Mfr System Brakes Manufacturer Recall Number 20760 Units Affected The number of vehicles or components affected by the recall. 46,837 Category Light Truck & Van, SUV Recall Details On certain Heavy Duty and Police Pursuit vehicles, the brake pedal pivot nut may become loose, causing the brake pedal to be loose or inoperative. If the brake pedal becomes loose or inoperative, it could interfere with the accelerator pedal, and/or the driver may be unable to safely stop the vehicle through application of the brake pedal, potentially affecting stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt installation to determine whether the vehicle has already received the production remedy. If not, the dealer will add adhesive to the nut, and reinstall the nut at an increased torque. Note: This condition may result in the "Service Engine Soon" light illuminating, and brake lights may stay on longer than expected.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
