CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741. Up for sale and your consideration is a very cool 1968 Chevy C-10 Hot Rod Shop Truck with a chopped top, 350 V8 engine and a Muncie 4-speed car transmission. Please take the time to look over all 24 photos that I have listed here on this auction. You can also click on any photo to supersize and zoom in on all photos. This truck was originally a Virginia truck. It came to Pennsylvania in 1993 and has had the same owner for the last 20 years. It was customized and owner restored to his liking, and well maintained ever since. He had a small motorcycle shop and this truck was used as the shop truck to transport the bikes. It runs, drives, and stops great and can be enjoyed immediately on the day of purchase. It is however a northeast truck and shows some evidence of some rust issues that were addressed over the years. The body work is not 100% and is showing some age upon close inspection. This truck has great curb appeal and is a head turner with it's 4" chopped top, 5" dropped front spindles, 4" rear blocks and air shocks. It's also equipped with power steering and power disc brakes so it's a breeze to drive.
ENGINE: Engine is a chevy 350 cubic inch small block with a casting # 3970010 which was used from 1969-1979 in both truck and high performance applications. Most of these blocks had 4-bolt mains, but since the oil pan wasn't removed I can't make that claim. Heads are casting # 3782461 which is also a high performance item. As you can see in the picture showing the cylinder head casting # the engine is extremely clean inside. Engine is topped with an Edelbrock aluminum intake and modern 4106 Edelbrock carburetor. It is also equipped with headers and reliable HEI ignition. It runs well with no noises or smoke. TRANSMISSION: The transmission is a Muncy 4-Speed with casting # 3885010. These were used in passenger cars from 1965-1967. The shifter is a Hurst Indy unit with a tall truck style handle. DIFFERENTIAL: Owner stated that the rear is the original non-posi unit that came with the truck. BODY: As you can see in the photos, this truck has it's own unique look and is chopped and lowered. All glass was professionally cut and is tinted. No plexiglass was used. Owner stated that the rear cab mounts and cab corners were replaced. Inside of the bed is coated with a Spray-On Bedliner, and is equipped with two front mounted heavy duty eyelets to tie down motorcycles or whatever you would like to haul and secure. Rolled pans were installed front and rear and custom front bumpers were installed to complete the custom look. Motorcycle turn signals were used as front turn signals and hot rod mirrors are installed on the top of the doors. There is some pitting on the door handles as they appear to be original units. All emblems were shaved. INTERIOR: Original bench seat was replaced with two wide seats with armrests, and a combination console/storage compartment in between. Bottom of driver's seat was just re-upholstered and also a new carpet was installed. An aftermarket stereo was installed to supply the tunes. The two switches that you see near the instrument cluster are for back-up and interior lights. Inside of the roof shows the extensive work that went into the chopping of the top. There is no headliner in the truck. It is black painted metal. Gas pedal, brake and clutch pedal pads were replaced as well as a new padded dash cover. The emergency brake does not hold and will need some attention. TAX ADVANTAGE: Since this is a commercial vehicle there are advertising tax advantages. Check with your accountant. TERMS OF SALE: Again this is a northeast truck, and did not spend most of it's life in the Arizona Desert. It is not a #1 truck at a #3 price. It is not a vehicle that you would take to one of the EGO-RAMA auctions in January and sell for stupid money. It is however priced reasonably for what it is so A REAL CAR PERSON CAN AFFORD OWN AND ENJOY IT. Please check my 100% positive feedback and buy with confidence. After reading the entire description and checking out all 24 photos here on the auction feel free to ask any questions on the truck. I have accurately and honestly described this truck to the best of my knowledge based on a complete physical inspection, driving, and servicing the truck and also based on conversation with the previous owner. If any prospective buyer has any further questions as to the integrity or condition of this vehicle then I welcome and encourage you to call me and make an appointment to come see the truck in person to satisfy any questions you may have. This truck is sold in AS-IS condition with no actual, implied, or expressed warranty or guarantee of any kind. The day you buy the truck it is your truck. That is why I provide a complete and thorough description with complete and thorough pictures and welcome any buyer to come see the truck in person. There will be an Ebay required $300.00 paypal non-refundable deposit to be paid buy the winning buyer using either the buy it now option or the winning buyer at the end of the auction. The most accepted, preferred and encouraged method of payment is funds in hand and a local pickup of the truck. Any other method will need to be discussed with me first and approved before proceeding with the sale. Shipping will be the financial responsibility of the buyer. I will be happy to recommend previously used shippers. I will also be happy to reasonably assist in the appointment set-up, pick-up and loading of the truck. My contact # is at the top and bottom of this ad to make it very easy for any prospective buyer to reach me at. So lastly any questions at all on this truck please don't hesitate to CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741. Thanks and good luck ! |

2023 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study shows there's less quality than last year
Thu, Jun 22 2023Vehicle inventory, vehicle pricing, and the supply chain are finally showing improvement. Vehicle quality, on the other hand, is still going the wrong way. That's the takeaway from the 2023 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study that found overall problems exceeded last year's record high. The study surveyed owners of 2022-model-year vehicles to assess the average rate of problems per 100 vehicles (PP100) during the first 90 days of ownership. The average figure for the 32 ranked manufacturers in 2020 was about 166 problems per 100 vehicles. In the 2021 IQS, that dropped to an average of 162. For 2022, the average jumped to 180 problems. For 2023, the PP100 is up to an industry average of 192 — an increase of 30 problems per 100 vehicles in just two years. Let's get to the good news first: Dodge reclaimed the crown of having the lowest number of problems per 100 vehicles at 140. Buick won last year with 139 PP100, falling to third this year. Dodge was the first American automaker to top the IQS in 2021. Its return as the least problematic gives parent company Stellantis three wins in four years after Ram was crowned in 2021. It also gives U.S. brands a four-peat after Buick topped the chart in 2022 by having owners report the fewest problems. This year's top 10 is Dodge, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Buick, Chevrolet, GMC, Porsche, Cadillac, Kia, and Lexus. Stellantis gathered a few feathers for its cap, in fact. Maserati showed the largest improvement year-on-year, followed by Alfa Romeo, and Alfa Romeo posted the lowest PP100 among the premium class, beating Porsche and Cadillac. Alfa Romeo has been vocal about working to improve quality, mentioning Lexus as a target. Last year the Japanese brand finished sixth, the Italians finished near the bottom, between Jaguar and Mitsubishi. This year Alfa jumped to third, Lexus dropped to tenth. Ram was the third-best on the list of improvers from 2022 to 2023.  The individual model with the lowest PP100 is the Nissan Maxima. Now for the troublesome bits. In the words of Frank Hanley, senior director of auto benchmarking at J.D. Power, "The industry is at a major crossroad and the path each manufacturer chooses is paramount for its future.
GM opens military discount to 21M veterans and their spouses
Thu, Apr 7 2016May marks the start of National Military Appreciation Month, and General Motors is getting into the spirit by expanding its military discount program to, well, just about everyone. That includes a total of 21 million military veterans and their spouses, along with the current slate of active duty, reserve, and National Guard members. The discount can slash thousands of dollars off the price of a new Buick, Chevrolet, or GMC vehicles, with Automotive News listing an $1,100 discount on the top gas-powered version of the Malibu, the Premiere. Those that want a bit more spice can get $1,700 off the price of a last-generation 2015 Camaro SS, while truck buyers will enjoy $3,000 off the Chevy Silverado All Star. That's just a start, though, since the military discount can be paired with other GM incentives. The discount doesn't apply to everything, though. Some are understandable – none of Cadillac's vehicles are included in the deal, nor is the Corvette Z06. You'll also be unable to apply the discount to a range of base-level trims, like the Chevy Cruze or Equinox L, the base Colorado, or the entry level GMC Acadia, Canyon, and Terrain. A full list is available at GM's dedicated military discount website. GM's expanded discount plan runs from today through May 31.

Nissan sells 3,117 Leaf EVs in May, climbs over 3,000 for first time ever
Tue, Jun 3 2014Chalk up a big win for the Nissan Leaf. In May, the world's most popular electric vehicle sold a record 3,117 units, the first time any pure electric vehicle has sold over 3,000 units in a month in the US (unless Tesla managed that feat but rolled the number into a quarterly report). This marks the 15th month in a row of record Leaf sales and the seventh where the Leaf was the top EV seller in the US. The challenge bar is set for someone to step up to compete with this all-electric wunderkind. Chevrolet did sell over 3,000 Volts once, in August 2013. The Leaf's one long-standing competitor, of a sort, is the Chevy Volt, which used to regularly outsell the Leaf but moved only 1,684 units in May. That's still an increase of 4.8 percent over 2013 but is part of a 4.5 percent decline in year-to-date Volt sales for 2014 compared to last year. The last time the Volt outsold the Leaf was October 2013. Chevrolet did sell over 3,000 Volts once, when it moved 3,351 in August 2013. Let's take another look at those 3,117 Leafs sold last month. They represent a 45.8 percent increase over May 2013, when 2,138 Leaf EVs were sold, so someone is doing something right in Japan and Tennessee. So far, Leaf sales in the US are up 36.4 percent year-to-date, to 10,389 EVs. That's just under half of the 2013 total, and it was accomplished in five months. In 2013, Nissan sold a total of 22,610 Leafs. Anyone want to hazard a guess where the total will be at the end of the year? As always, we'll have our detailed monthly sales write-up including other plug-in vehicles as well as hybrids and diesel car, up soon. For now, though, the big news is big Leaf sales. Read Nissan's press release below. Nissan Group reports May 2014 U.S. sales May 2014 May 2013 % Change Nissan Group Total sales (units) 135,934 114,457 +18.8 Nissan Division May sales 125,558 106,558 +17.8 Infiniti May sales* 10,376 7,899 +31.4 NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Nissan Group today announced total U.S. sales for May 2014 of 135,934 units, an increase of 18.8 percent over the prior year and a May record. Nissan highlights: Nissan Division set a May record at 125,558 sales in the month, an increase of 17.8 percent. This marks a monthly record for Nissan division in 14 of the last 15 months. May was the best-ever month for Nissan LEAF with 3,117 sales, an increase of 45.8 percent over the prior year. In May, LEAF passed 50,000 total U.S. sales since launch, further establishing it as the leader among electric vehicles.
