Condition to disclose: This is a daily driver, mostly in town, but I do take to SFO airport and when returning from work I am in traffice for 2.5-3 hours with no issues, no overheating or such. Just lots of thumbs up when I'm on the road. Paint is original as seen in pics, no bondo, truck is nicely straight except passenger door has some minor dings on it. Doors and cab have drill holes from old camper mirrors and old tie down hooks on bed. Under carriage looks its age but nothing beyond that. The cab needs a new mat if you like but i feel it matches the rest of the truck. The seat have some holes but again match the patina of the truck.

Condition the good: Original motor replaced with another new/rebuilt 350. About 260HP with motor additions of Edelbrock aluminum intake and carb, plus new Magnaflow Dual Exhaust, truck sounds real nice. At the same time as motor work the large radiator was rebuilt, along with brakes, and tranny rebuilt. All this within the last 8-10 thousand miles. Truck is very presentable and reliable. I've had more people ask me to sell this vehicle then any other I've ever owned just because of the cool factor. Also note: all new belts, and radiator hoses, plus also a new Optima red top battery not shown in pics.

Features: C-10 trim all present. Ralley wheels and tires have 90%+ thread. New dash pad. New radio and single dash speaker, radio looks old school but has MP3 feature. Bucket seats with factory center console. Instrument panel all works and has desired tach. Tilt steering column. Original factory green tint glass. All lights, blinkers, and interior components work. Strong newer motor and great sounding Magnaflow dual exhaust. 15x8 Ralley wheels with newer BF Goodrich tires. New/rebuilt motor and tranny, no leaks in the drive way!!!

History: I bought this a few years ago as I always wanted a Chevy short bed truck. When i bought it the gentleman I bought it from flipped it from a family that had owned it for 39 years. It needed a lot of work as explained above. This truck is really cool as it sits and the only things I would do would be to replace front bushings to ease up the squeeking if that bothers you, but the truck drives very tight as I did replace the front sway bar bushings, and maybe replace the floor mat, but again, it matches the trucks patina. This truck is very reliable and what I like is it has no leaks which is tought to do with these old trucks. This truck is very reliable on a daily bases.

Shipping: This is for local pick up only. Buyer will have to make his own arraingments.

This truck is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end listing at any time.

This truck is being sold as is, where is, and no warranty of any kind is expressed. You buy it its yours as is.

Thank you.

Chevy recalls 73k Cobalts for side airbag non-deployment

Mon, Aug 24 2015

Chevrolet is recalling 73,424 examples of the 2010 Cobalt in the US and Canada because the driver's side curtain airbag might not deploy in a crash. These vehicles carry build dates between January 4 and June 23, 2010, and, specifically, 59,474 of them are in the US. "GM is aware of one crash with one injury that may be related to this condition," the company said in a statement. The problem occurs because of improper routing of the side-impact sensor wiring harness in the driver's door, and there can be a short circuit causing the curtain airbag not to deploy. The campaign to fix the issue will begin on August 26. Dealers will inspect the vehicles and will repair the issue on any affected examples. Related Video: GM Statement: General Motors is recalling 59,474 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt sedans in the U.S. because some of them may have been built with improper side impact sensor wire routing in the left front door. Dealers will inspect all suspect vehicles and any found with the condition will be repaired free of charge to the customer. GM is aware of one crash with one injury that may be related to this condition. Including vehicles sold in Canada, the total recall population is 73,424. RECALL Subject : Improperly Routed Side Impact Wire Harness Report Receipt Date: AUG 10, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V500000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Potential Number of Units Affected: 59,474 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) CHEVROLET COBALT 2010 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt vehicles manufactured January 4, 2010, to June 23, 2010. The affected vehicles may be equipped with an improperly routed Side-Impact Sensor (SIS) wiring harness in the driver side front door. The misrouted wiring harness could cause an electrical short that disables the driver side curtain air bag. CONSEQUENCE: A disabled driver side roof-rail air bag will not deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of that air bag, increasing the risk of injury to the driver. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the sensor's wiring in the driver's door and make repairs as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin August 26, 2015. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 15075.

There are still 6,000 first-gen Chevy Volts on dealer lots

Sun, May 24 2015

The next-gen 2016 Chevrolet Volt looks to be a pretty fantastic vehicle with more electric driving range, better fuel economy than its predecessor, and a lower starting price. However, if you're looking for a deal, the 2015 model of the plug-in hybrid might not be a bad place to check because Chevy has a ton of them to get rid of. According to The Detroit Free Press, there are around 6,000 examples of the 2015 Volts that are still sitting on dealer lots. That might not sound like a lot, but Chevy only sold 905 of them in April and 2,779 through that month in 2015. It moved 18,805 of the PHEVs for all of 2014. Buyers are in a pretty good spot to haggle at the moment, too, with the a new Volt right around the corner. According to The Detroit Free Press based on TrueCar figures, the current average closing price for a 2015 model is $30,607 before any federal or state tax credits. You can also lease one for 39 months for $299 a month and $1,649 due at signing. In April, Chevy was reportedly offering customers 2.9-percent financing for 48 months and leases with no money down for buyers trading in a vehicle from a competitor. Of course, there's also always the option to buy a pre-owned example. Just a few months ago, prices for used Volts were reportedly as low as $13,000 at auction.

GM workers in Oshawa walk out in protest of plant closure

Mon, Nov 26 2018

TORONTO/MONTREAL – Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday expressed his "deep disappointment" in General Motors' decision to close its Oshawa plant, a move Canadian officials only learned about on Sunday and which led workers to walk off the job on Monday. GM said the closure affects a total of 2,973 assembly line jobs. GM's total employment in Canada is 8,150 direct jobs. Workers in the Unifor trade union walked out of the Oshawa plant "in protest," ahead of a meeting with GM about the announcement, a union spokeswoman said. "I've moved my family twice for this company and they do this to me," a tearful worker told CBC TV as he left the plant. Currently, the Oshawa plant builds the Cadillac XTS and Chevy Impala sedans. Under Unifor's four-year contract signed in 2016, GM must give the union a year's notice before closing the plant. The automaker intends to close the plant in December, 2019. A 2015 study commissioned by Unifor, which represents GM employees, estimated that shutting the plant would eliminate 4,100 direct jobs and reduce Ontario's gross domestic product by C$1.1 billion. But Jerry Dias, president of Unifor, said the move amounts to a breach of the automaker's contract with its employees. "We have a collective agreement that says they're not closing any of our facilities ... so we will do anything by any means to make sure that they live up to their word," Dias said at a news conference. Dias said the contract between Unifor and the company forbids GM from closing any of its Canadian plants during the contract period, which ends in September 2020. "They are not closing our damn plant without one hell of a fight." Canadian officials promised to aid auto workers affected by the 2019 closure, part of a wider restructuring by the automaker that will cut production of slow-selling models and slash its North American workforce. "I spoke with GM (CEO) Mary Barra to express my deep disappointment in the closure," Trudeau tweeted on Monday. "We'll do everything we can to help the families affected by this news get back on their feet." GM workers have been part of the heart and soul of Oshawa for generations - and we'll do everything we can to help the families affected by this news get back on their feet. Yesterday, I spoke with @GM's Mary Barra to express my deep disappointment in the closure.
