Beautiful ’70 C10 Chevy step-side pickup truck with the shop/patina theme was a complete frame off show restore somewhere around 2001. Sometime after ’06, the owner got tired of the truck sitting in a garage and started driving it…..which enhanced the weathering/patina of the truck. Since I have owned the truck, it has been completely gone through in order to make the truck as dependable as possible. This truck is a super cool “driver” that is practical enough for daily or long trips. I know this phrase is way over used, but “I would drive the truck anywhere”……. don’t worry about bringing a trailer to pick it up. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine was not modified as I wanted it to be practical and dependable for everyday driving, get descent gas mileage, and have a retro look. There is not a peck or tick whatsoever in the engine compartment. - 350 4 bolt main engine w/ 350 turbo tranny…truck runs 80-85mph on the interstate with no problem whatsoever -Trans kick-down cable is hooked up and works great - 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 -16-18mpg on average EXTERIOR: The sheet metal of this truck is original (not a Frankenstein creation) and is in excellent shape(perfectly straight)….it only has normal wear that adds to the overall character of a patina vehicle……the truck is weathered, not dented or rusted to death. 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….and there are some paint chips/minor stratches from normal wear. All the suspension/steering components of this truck were rebuilt/replaced. I wanted the most practical suspension I could find and to have the lowest stance possible without c-notching, so I went with an Early Classic Enterprise 4/6 drop kit, and stance and ride of this truck is perfect. -Suspension is a 4/6 complete drop kit from Early Classic Enterprise that includes 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 -New bearing carrier -Early Classic hidden hitch with adjustable air shocks in the rear for towing/hauling….very nice feature -Note that this truck has the ‘73-’87 front end suspension upgrade…crossmember / A-arms/sway bar that were professionally installed and lined…very nice upgrade from the ’67-’72 front ends...you can let go of the steering wheel at any spend and it holds as true as a new vehicle -Sway bar with new Moog bushings….sway bars are a must on these trucks…improves handling tremendously -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! -Floor of the bed is showing its age, but again it just adds to the nostalgic appeal of the truck - You can tell the truck was a complete frame off restoration around 10-12 yrs old based on the undercarriage...it is very clean with only minor surface rust....no undercoating or paint trying to hide anything under this truck. A couple of the undercarriage pics have been attached to listing and represent it extremely well. I have tons of undercarriage pics that I can text...just let me know -The doors shut as good as a new Chevy truck....see video -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: The interior is very clean and the floor is extremely solid with no rust. -Cab has been insulated with sound mat/jute -New floor mat -Original style AM/FM radio with cd/iPod/mp3 upgrade & new speaker - All cab/glass 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 NEEDS: -Parking brake cable needs to be attached inside cab….cable does come with truck. -Currently has a small trans leak where speedo cable attaches Note that if I get a chance, I will address both of these small issues before truck is sold, but I can’t guarantee that I will be able to get to them….so truck is being sold as is.
Check out the video of this truck on YouTube at Overall, this is a beautiful truck that is extremely nice and super clean with a lot of character and personality. The truck is shop/patina truck as is, 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 pic./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. This is a no excuse truck, and I have described it to the best of my knowledge. 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 need be, I will do my best with assisting with shipping of the truck, but the buyer is responsible for setup and all expenses. If you have any questions or want other pics, please don’t hesitate to ask. Serious inquires only! A deposit of $500 is due within 48 hrs. from auctions end with balance due in cash, wire transfer, or cashier’s check from bank(check will need to be verified before truck is released). Vehicle is sold as-is. Clean/Clear title in my name with matching numbers on the original door tag and glove box….. Email, call 606-598-9953 evenings after 5pm, or the best way to reach me is via text at 606-813-2045 ANYTIME.

This is how GM is hiding new Chevy Volt in public
Wed, Oct 1 2014General Motors is letting the public know that, well, it's not about to let the public know anything else about the next-generation Chevrolet Volt. But the automaker is willing to talk about its camouflaging process for upcoming versions of the extended-range plug-in. So it's a half-hearted secret, at best. GM actually has a "camouflage engineer" charged with creating ways to disguise the styling of new vehicles. In the Volt's case, the company is applying black and white swirly color patterns on top of the materials, such as plastics, vinyl and foam, that are used liberally across the body. It's all part of a teaser campaign that started last month with pictures of part the 2016 Volt. Earlier this month, GM said it was keeping track of Volt drivers' habits as it works on the next-gen model. The company noted that more than four out of five trips are being made in all-electric driving mode, and that 60 percent of Volt owners use a plain-old 100-volt outlet to recharge their cars. The car is slated to make its global debut at Detroit's North American International Auto Show next January, and the early word is that performance and all-electric range will be improved (we should hope so). The car will also be sleeker. By how much, we can't tell yet, because of those darn swirly patterns. GM's got more non-details in its press release below. Engineers charged with hiding styling while vehicle testing proceeds in public DETROIT – The styling of the next-generation Chevrolet Volt is one of the automotive world's best-kept secrets. Keeping customers and media eager to see the successor to the groundbreaking original at bay until the new Volt debuts at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January is tricky business. First, it is engineers, not designers, who are charged with creating camouflage that balances styling secrecy with the need to validate the Volt and its systems in public. "If it were up to me it would be a shoebox driving down the road," said Lionel Perkins, GM camouflage engineer. "The design team wants us to cover more of the vehicle and the engineering team needs to have enough of the vehicle's weight and aero exposed so that the tests in the development process are consistent with the product that will come to market." The engineers responsible for the "cool" designs covering the car might deserve style points but their efforts are intended strictly to hide the metal beneath.
Nissan Leaf sales double Chevy Volt to close out winning 2014
Mon, Jan 5 2015To close out the year, sales of the two most-popular plug-in vehicles in the US kept going in the direction that they had been all year. The Chevy Volt dropped and the Nissan Leaf had another record month. Sound familiar? The Volt sold 1,490 units in December, a year-to-year drop of 37.7 percent. For all of 2014, Volt sales were down 18.6 percent to just 18,805 (from 23,094 in 2013). On the Nissan side of the ledger, the Leaf sold 3,102 units, up 22.7 percent from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. For the year, Nissan sold 30,200 Leafs, up 33.6 percent from the 22,610 sold in 2013. A few other things to note: For every month in 2014, the Leaf sold more than it did for the same month in 2013. For the Volt, this was only true for three months (April, May and July). Funnily enough, the Volt sold exactly 1,478 units in both March 2013 and 2014. The Volt's 2014 total was lower than both 2013 and 2012, while the Leaf had its best year ever. There were three months in 2014 when people bought at least twice as many Leafs than bought a Volt (September, November, December). The Leaf outsold the Volt every month in 2014. The closest gap was 215 units, in February. The biggest was 1,612, in December. As you've most likely seen, GM is still busy teasing the new Volt, which will make its official debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week. We'll have a more in-depth green car sales post up soon. <iframe embedded="true" "="" scrolling="no" src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oIuH75vaSHaaplD4x6gLsYjSsiN4oGmez1T63eaYdhY/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false" height="430"> Nissan celebrates 30,000 leaf sales in 2014, best year ever for sales of any plug-in vehicle NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Jan. 5, 2015) – Nissan, the world leader in electric vehicle sales, shattered yet another sales record with 30,200 LEAF vehicles sold in 2014, which is the first time any plug-in has sold more than 30,000 units in a single year. "Now in its fifth model year, Nissan LEAF is more popular than ever and continues to bring new buyers to Nissan," said Brendan Jones, director, Nissan Electric Vehicle Sales and Infrastructure. "From the beginning our vision was to bring electric vehicles to the mass market in a practical and fun-to-drive package, which is what makes Nissan LEAF the best-selling electric car in the world." Last month, Nissan sold 3,102 all-electric LEAFs, up 22.7 percent from the prior year and a December record.
First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 Sells For One Million Dollars
Mon, Apr 14 2014NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick loves buying first-built Chevrolet models for charity. He paid $1 million to buy the first production 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible and $650,000 to get the first 2014 Chevy Camaro Z/28. Hendrick's latest purchase happened at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Palm Beach where he got into a bidding war to pay $1 million to get the first 2015 Corvette Z06. The bidding came quick with the car reaching $100,000 within 3 seconds and hitting $500,000 in about 35 seconds. The money from the sale was donated to the Karmanos Cancer Institute.
