1972 Chevy c10

Up for auction is one bitchin 1972 C10 short bed pickup!  This truck is a head turner!  There aren’t many out there that look this good.  It gets constant thumbs up and attention everywhere it goes. 

These c10s are steadily climbing in value, and this particular truck is sure to be a solid investment.  It's got the right look, the right color combination, and all the right upgrades that make it as desirable as a C10 gets!  This is not an amateur built or thrown together to sell truck.  It was done right and it shows!

This truck had a full feature is the Sept. 2012 issue of Classic trucks.  The new owner will receive a copy of the magazine.  Since the feature the truck has had many improvements and upgrades.

The motor is a correct date code 1972 402 Big Block.  It runs great; doesn't miss a beat!  The underside of the hood is nicely detailed. It has a 50's style Cadillac batwing air cleaner which has been sprayed gloss black and hand pinstriped.  The alternator was also sprayed gloss black and a billet pulley and fan added.  The tranny is a smooth shifting 400 turbo. The truck has a dual flow master exhaust that’s sounds perfect.

The truck has factory power steering, and factory power disc brakes.

The interior of this truck looks awesome!  The bright red leather really pops against the black.  The gauges were restored and look great.  A billet specialties leather wrapped steering wheel was added along with a billet shifter and turn signal lever.  The column was upgraded to a tilt column from a corvette.  Everything on this truck works.  All lights, blinkers, turn signals, horn, wipers, gauge lights, gauges, radio, ect…  It has a CD player and some nice sounding speakers.

A new Gen 5 Vintage air heat and AC kit was installed and keeps the cab ice cold in the summer and nice and warm in the winter.  New factory reproduction dash vents were added to keep the AC install looking clean.  

The gas tank was removed from behind the seat and a new Blazer tank was installed between the frame rails, with a filler neck in the bed.

The wheels are Billet Specialties Vintecs, 18x8s in the front and 20x10s in the rear, wrapped in new z rated tires.

The truck fully adjustable 4 corner air ride suspension, which is brand new. The ride height can be changed with the push of a button and can be fully monitored with the gauges in the cab.  The rear end has been C-notched and a brand new set of dropped spindles were installed in the front.

This truck is extremely straight and flat down the sides.  Lots of time and care invested to get one as straight as this. The black paint is very slick and has a mirror finish.  The truck has been done for some time and it has been driven, so there are some minor signs of age and is not perfect, but still looks fantastic! The doors open and close very nice.  All the gaps are good and everything lines up nicely.  The cab is super solid. This truck was done right and it shows! 

When the truck was built the bumpers were re-chromed. A new grill, door handles, mirrors, ect. were installed.  Pretty much everything on the truck was redone.

This truck runs and drives great! It has been driven on many long hauls and does great on the highway. The seat was moved back and lowered a bit to make for more leg room.  It’s a very reliable truck.  I had it on a 300 mile run recently without a single issue. 

Overall, this is a great truck!  It runs good, drives good, sounds good, and looks good.  It’s a blast to drive and cruises down the road very nicely!  Its ready to hop in and enjoy! 

This truck can be yours today, serious buyers can reach me at 314-393-0565.  Please read the listing prior to calling and only call if you are an interested buyer.  I reserve the right to sell the truck at any time.  Most of the vehicles I list do not make it to the end of the auction, if you want this truck, don’t hesitate to call, and don’t be surprised if its sold tomorrow!

Is this '47 Chevrolet a rat rod or a sports car?

Sun, May 22 2016

These days there are plenty of vehicles that blur the conventional automotive class structures. For instance, was the Honda Crosstour a wagon or an SUV? And what exactly was the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet? Regardless, those line-blurring cars (or trucks) are out there, and though this one didn't roll off a production line, it's still quite the automotive head-scratcher. Hailing from Missouri, this epic creation is one part mad science experiment, one part 1947 Chevrolet pickup, and one part '95 Mercury Cougar. Add it all up and you get an awesome truck-sports-car hybrid, complete with an outrageous wing and a V8 to boot. And interestingly enough, it's up for sale . RELATED: Check out this Wild-Styled Lamborghini Rat Rod So how does it all come together? According to the listing, the Chevrolet truck cab (which had previously been chopped) was sanded down to bare metal and given a thorough shellacking of clear coat. It was then melded together with the front end of a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck, and set low to the ground on Bilstein suspension drop spindles. Stance achieved. But instead of fielding an engine from either of those pickups, it pulls its heart from a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV—a big 5.3-liter V8 heart, that is. It comes backed-up to a GM Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Towards the rear however is where things get really interesting. A Copper Pearl coated tube frame chassis both attaches the rear independent suspension (a la Mercury Cougar) to the racy spoiler, as well as secures the rat rod's rear-mounted radiator, fan, and fuel tank. I'm not quite sure why, but it just looks glorious. RELATED: Reports Say Mid-Engine Corvette Will Arrive in 2018 Inside the vintage cab, the Chevrolet furthers its racing proclivities (it's said to have won burnout and auto-cross events) with a pair of harnessed racing seats, a drift brake, a detachable steering wheel, and a tachometer with oil and temperature gauges, but oddly no speedometer. The shifter is a crescent wrench. And its shift boot? That's a Crown Royal Purple bag. All in all, this grin-worthy Frankenstein creation tallies up bits and pieces from four different vehicles (five if you include the Camaro wheels), which make it truly a mash-up of epic proportions. Internet, what do you think? Related Video: This article by Zach Doell originally appeared on Boldride.

Cadillac XT4 crossover to be built in Kansas City

Mon, Jan 8 2018

Cadillac's upcoming XT4, a crossover we've previously known as the XT3 in a long series of spy shots of heavily camouflaged mules, will be built at General Motors' assembly plant in Kansas City on the same platform as the Chevrolet Malibu, Bloomberg reports, citing people familiar with the plan. That will give Cadillac another entry in the red-hot luxury crossover segment and, GM hopes, help to reverse a sales slump in the U.S. It'll also breath life into the Kansas City plant that makes the slow-selling Malibu, where GM cut a third shift last year, by sharing the assembly line between the crossover and sedan and defraying costs for each vehicle. The XT4 was known most recently as the XT3, with styling cues based on the Escala concept sedan from 2016. It's slightly smaller than the XT5, Cadillac's top-selling vehicle, and will also augment the full-size Escalade in Cadillac's stable of SUVs when it makes its expected debut later this year. Cadillac last week reported its second-highest-ever sales mark with 356,467 vehicles, an increase of 15.5 percent over 2016. But that mark papers over an 8 percent sales decline in the U.S. to 156,440 vehicles. The luxury brand is on a hot streak in China, where sales jumped 50.8 percent last year to 175,489 units.Related Video: Image Credit: Brian Williams Plants/Manufacturing Cadillac Chevrolet GM Crossover sales cadillac xt5 cadillac xt4 cadillac xt3

Watch the National Corvette Museum sinkhole being filled in by R/C cars

Sun, Jan 11 2015

Okay, so not exactly cars, but Bobcats - but still quite cool. You might remember that the National Corvette Museum had that little divot that needed to be filled in. Turns out the construction firm of Scott, Murphy & Daniel doing the work is using two remote-controlled Bobcats to fill the sinkhole with "manufactured sand," which in this case is crushed limestone. It appears that the Bobcat company has offered remote operation since at least 2007 via a wireless transmitter that works up to 1,500 feet away. So yes, that means two SMD employees stand on the edge of the pit and flick joystick levers for hours at a time, one in charge of a Bobcat with a roller-compactor attachment, the other in charge of a Bobcat with a bucket. And that, to us, is a pretty good way to earn the daily bread. Check out the video above for the latest sinkhole update.
