'70 C10 Chevy Step Side Truck:
Up for sale is a true 1970 C10 step side pickup with a clean/clear title in my name with all matching numbers ready to transfer. This truck was built with 2 primary objectives....1) to be as dependable and mechanically sound as possible and 2) have ample character and personality. You will not find a more dependable better riding or driving C10. This is a true "turn key" get in and go anywhere truck...no need to bring a trailer to haul it back!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine was kept stock (with a nostalgic look) as I wanted it to be practical and dependable for everyday driving while getting the best gas mileage that a 350 has to offer. Truck starts, idles and runs perfectly. You will not find a more mechanically sound drive train. - Fresh 350 4 bolt main engine(010 casting #s) w/ 350 turbo automatic tranny -Quadrajet 4 barrel carb - Weiand intake -Coated headers w/ Flowmasters (40 series) -New plugs/wires/oil change...everything in drive train has been recently serviced and is ready to go -Trans cooler installed -3 core radiator upgrade…this truck can idle in the desert for days and not run hot -New passenger inner fender -New battery
EXTERIOR: The sheet metal of this truck is in excellent shape(perfectly straight) with all the panels fitting very nicely together. Notice that this truck has only natural patina due to weathering, but you can add your own touches as you see fit. There is a small ding in the crease of the front right fender(see pics/video)…easy to fix if you want to “slick” the truck. This is the only ding in the sheet metal. All the suspension/steering components of this truck were rebuilt/replaced. This truck is lowered properly with Early Classic components in order to maintain the correct geometry for proper handling and excellent ride. -Suspension is a complete 4/6 complete drop kit from Early Classic Enterprise that includes 2.5 drop spindles, springs, KYB GR2 shocks w/ relocators, super track bar….this kit provides for a killer stance with awesome ride without any shake or vibration at any speed -5 lug with New 20” Boss 8.5 front & back wheels w/ Michelin tires....this truck was built to drive so I went with the same size wheels and tires so they could be rotated properly. -Power Steering & Power Disc Brakes up front with New front calipers/rotors/pads/rear drums and shoes -Front end professionally lined -Drive shaft rebuilt with new bearing carrier & universal joints -Early Classic hidden hitch with adjustable air shocks in the rear for towing/hauling with brake assist hook up -Sway bar with new Moog bushings -Cab mounts are in excellent shape -Cab corners/rockers/kick panels /all the notorious places for rust on these trucks are in great shape -GM Bahama blue base coat/ clear coat…..beautiful color....the truck was originally the stock blue from the factory -Floor of the bed is showing its age, but again it just adds to the nostalgic appeal of the truck -Chassis/Undercarriage is in perfect shape...if you need pics, just let me know -The doors shut as good as a new Chevy truck -Windows are in great shape and open and roll up/down as they should -New front and rear bumpers -All lights/signals work great -Note that the Shop Logo is superficial to the clear coat, and with a little lacquer thinner, can be removed in about 5 mins.
INTERIOR: It would be extremely difficult to make the interior of one of these trucks any nicer while maintaining the original integrity of the cab. -Cab has been insulated with sound mat/jute -New floor mat -Original style AM/FM radio with cd/iPod/mp3 upgrade & new speakers...old school look with new technology - All glass and cab seals are in great shape -New 3 point(shoulder) seat belts from Brothers …also installed a middle lap belt -New Houndstooth seat cover -New gas tank with sending unit -All glass is in perfect shape -Windows work great and wing glass opens perfectly -All gauges work properly -Floor pans/kick panels are all original and in great shape
Check out the video of this truck on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0cEQanbzRQ
Overall, this is a beautiful truck that is extremely nice and super clean with a lot of character and personality. This truck was built to be a shop/patina style truck, but the sheet metal/body on the truck is in such great shape it is ready to block sand and paint if you want a traditional show truck. There is one small ding in the crease of the front passenger fender(see pics./video) and the front bed petition has a slight bend…these quirks add to the overall appearance of the patina style, but if you want to “slick” the truck, they will need to be addressed. If you like the shop/patina style trucks, this one is super nice. It was not just thrown and pieced together, and if you see it, you will realize the attention to detail that was taken with this truck. If you have detailed questions about anything with respect to the truck, please do not hesitate to ask. I understand that it is difficult to buy a truck by looking at pics miles away, but please understand that I have sold through ebay going on 14 years now and have never received a single negative feedback. I encourage anyone interested in this style of truck to come look. Most vehicles look better in pics than in person.....and trust me, I having driven countless hours with only regret and disappointment at the end of the venture.... but I promise you will not get that experience with this truck. I guarantee the truck looks better in person than in the pics. I am not trying to hide anything on this truck and encourage anyone interested in a C10 to come look. You are more than welcome to send a 3rd party inspector to assess the truck and make sure it is describe accurately. If you have any questions or want other pics, please don’t hesitate to ask. Serious inquires only! A $500 Paypal deposit is due within 48 hrs. at end of auction with balance due within 7 days in cash, wire transfer, or cashier’s check from bank(check will need to be verified before truck is released). If you can't abide by this policy, then please do not make an offer. This is a true 1970 C10 with a Clean/Clear title in my name with matching numbers on the original door tag and glove box…..

Mustang, Camaro, Challenger gallop onto USPS pony car postage stamp set
Tue, Jul 19 2022Some of America's most iconic cars are about to be immortalized on postage stamps. A new set by the U.S. Postal Service will celebrate the the golden era of pony cars, featuring five classic examples of Detroit iron. Each one is beautifully illustrated in oil-on-canvas style, with subjects in motion and sunlight glinting off the chrome, and would add a nice touch to any first-class letter. The pony car segment was all about (relatively) small, sporty alternatives to the full-size land yachts of the 1960s. They typically came equipped with 6-cylinder engines or small-block V8s. The category was named after the Ford Mustang, hence the name. Some, though, argue that the Plymouth Barracuda, which was launched a couple of weeks before the Mustang, is the first. Luckily, the Falcon-based Mustang's distinct styling generated a sales sensation, or we might be calling them fish cars. Appropriately, one of the featured cars is a Mustang. But it's not just any Mustang. The 1969 Boss 302, seen here resplendent in Bright Yellow, was created for the hotly-contested SCCA Trans-Am racing series. One of its main rivals would have been the 1969 Chevy Camaro Z/28, also created specifically for the series, and is included in the set in Fathom Green. Representing Auburn Hills in the set is a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T in Plum Crazy, while Southfield's American Motors gets a nod with an AMC Javelin in Big Bad Orange. The Mustang's platform cousin, a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR-7, is portrayed in a gorgeous Burgundy Poly that almost looks incomplete without Neko Case on the hood. It's not the first time the USPS has honored America's rich car culture on its stamps. In 2013, it issues a series of muscle car stamps with the help of Richard Petty. That set featured a 1966 Pontiac GTO, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1970 Chevelle SS, 1970 Plymouth Hemi ’Cuda and, of course, a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona. Another set in 2016 featured classic pickup trucks. Going further back, a 2008 release had chroed and finned automobiles of the 1950s and a 2005 release featured sporty American cars of the same era. The pony car stamps will debut on August 25 at the Great American Stamp Show in Sacramento, California in partnership with the American Philatelic Society. The public is free to attend the dedication ceremony, but you must RSVP first. After that, they will be available at local post offices and on line at the USPS store.
GM recalls Colorado, Canyon, and Malibu for airbag problem
Wed, Mar 9 2016The Basics: General Motors will recall and issue a stop sale on 1,740 total examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, Malibu, and GMC Canyon. This includes 1,579 units in the US and 161 in Canada. The Problem: The second stage of the driver front airbag inflator might not be present. If this happens, the airbag won't fill as quickly as it should in a high-speed crash, which could increase the risk of injury, according to Reuters. This is not related in any way to Takata's inflator problems, and these parts come from a different supplier. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: GM will replace the vehicles' airbag assemblies. If You Own One: GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog he wasn't specifically sure when recall repairs would begin but said it would be "shortly." He expects the fixes to happen "quickly" because of the small number of affected vehicles, and many of them are either in transport or already in dealer stock. More Information: GM recalled the 2015 Canyon and Colorado in 2014 for a completely separate airbag issue. In that case, a manufacturing error improperly wired the connectors. Related Video: GM Statement GM is recalling 1,579 MY 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Malibu vehicles in the United States and 161 in Canada to replace driver-side front airbags. The second stage of the airbag may not deploy properly in certain high-speed crashes. During a routine quality inspection, it was determined that a component required for a second-stage/high-output deployment was not loaded during the inflator build. Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag assembly. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries related to this issue. This issue is unrelated to the ongoing Takata recalls.
Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?
Thu, Jun 23 2016The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectively— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!
