 For sale I have my 1987 c10 swb (short wide bed)  This truck is my pride and joy but I now have a chance to restore my dream car which is a car my dad has had since he's been 21. We decided to go all out with this truck. It originally came from Texas and had the tbi 305, 700r4 and a 10 bolt. I bought the truck with just over 5000 miles on it although the title says actual its not according to the check I did after. I didn't care anyway because the truck was being built from the ground up including all new drivetrain. The title is a clear Kansas title with no liens. It now shows 6958 miles after being built with the new 383 stroker which only has just about 1000 miles. The brand new turbo 400 with a B&M shift kit and jegs xd 3800 stall has the same amount of miles as well as the brand new 12 bolt rear end with 373 richmond gears and a Detroit tru trac posi unit. The entire drive train has been gone through as well as suspension and paint. Mcgnaughtys 2.5 inch drop spindles with ground force 2 inch lowering springs lower the truck a total of 4.5 inches up front, and the bell tech drop shackle kit lowers the truck 4 inches in the rear. Traction wise the truck is equipped with cal tracs from calvert racing. Paint wise the truck is also phenomenal. The truck is black metallic and has house of Kolor flake neatly layed into the finish. You don't notice the flake unless in direct sunlight and it is beautiful. The entire truck has been shaved from front too rear. Front roll pan, shaved doors, rear roll pan, shaved tailgate and a complete custom built all steel cowl hood with built in guages. All paint and fabrication professionally done by a man with 35+ years experience. This truck draws crowds at shows and on social media. It is truly beautiful. Interior wise there are two like new leather power bucket seats. New carpet. Custom door panels, a pioneer head unit and Sony speakers, as well as a beautiful clearcoated black interior roof. The doors on the truck open with a wireless key fob from lmc. I have ALL documentation and it comes with this vehicle. This truck is completely custom and is a sight to behold. There are no other c10s out there that look like this truck.

Paint-

The paint is totally custom. It is a special candy black with a house of Kolor flake. This truck is straight as an arrow and like I said above, turns major heads. The truck at night looks completely black but you can shine a light on it and it comes to life. Same with the day time, it will look black unless the sun casts down upon it and its like a rainbow in the dark. It is so subtle its unbelievable.

If I have forgotten anything I will be sure to add it to the ad, but to really sum it up, this truck is my baby. Like I said my father has passed down his car I would love to start building and cant have both. This truck has hundreds of hours put into it, alot of money, and blood sweat and tears. It gets notoriety wherever it goes whether it is at a car show, driving down the street, sitting in the driveway or on social media. It will be featured on LMC's Website in July. This truck will make anyone happy and that's a promise. Give it a good home. I can send as many other pics as you want. I could only post 24. There are two videos below as well.

Foreign automakers pay from $38 to $65 per hour to non-union workers

Sun, Mar 29 2015

As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
