Greetings,


I bought this truck at the Mecum Kissimmee Auction in January, 2012.  The paperwork I received at auction stated it had a frame off restoration in 2008.  I drove it home to Charleston, SC after auction....400 miles with no issues. It's always been a very good running machine and I've done several key upgrades since for safety and reliability.  If you've ever restored one of these trucks, you know how expensive it can be.  I never skimped on parts as you will see below. I will make it as brief as possible but I want you to know what you are getting if you choose to buy my truck. In SC, you must have AC. This truck has a aftermarket unit that works and blows very cold. Also has a working heater. 

BRAKE UPGRADE:
 Parts bill from this alone was $1231 ( have receipt) all parts are easily replaced should/when they wear out.
Purchased from Performance Online out of California
1963-70 6 lug stock spindle disc brake wheel kit (deluxe)
Cross drill and gas slot upgrade
Braided stainless brake hose upgrade to 10mm with a GM Caliper
Power brake booster kit 11" disc fronts.  drum rear(rebuilt)
New brake proportioning valve

IGNITION UPGRADE: 
 All MSD to include MSD 6AL / MSD coil and distributor as well as spark plug wires.  Carb was rebuilt and jetted when ignition was done by experienced Chevy mechanic who also races at local tracks.  Truck fires right up and runs perfect with a "just right"rumble that you would want and expect. 

STEERING UPGRADE: 
Installed chrome IdidIt column shift with TILT ($421).  New Grant wheel (signals and horn function)

COOLING upgrade:
American Radiator  with two 1" cores. Dual fans.  Keeps truck running at no greater than 190 Degrees even at 95 degrees here in Charleston. 

Miscellaneous: performed in 2008
Truck has aftermarket headers with new aluminum gaskets(2012)  and true dual flow master exhausts. 
New gas tank was installed in stock position. 

Just replaced the rear main seal (June2013) and I have a total replacement seal kit from Summit that will go to new owner so you have that covered down the road. Also replaced the oil pan(orange stock) and transmission pan (chrome) and their respective seals.  Rear differential was serviced last year with new cover (chrome) fluid and seal.  Has 3.73 gears. 

Almost forgot- Installed a 3 pt. seatbelt for driver and passenger from LMC Truck.

Truck starts/runs/drives/stops as it should. The front brakes do squeak a bit when they get hot. You might eliminate this with a different shoe compound-  these came with performance kit. Truck stops straight and true as is. 

All hoses are good, top hose was replaced when I put in radiator.  

The cab and the bed floor are original.  All other fenders and tailgate are replacements. There is a tiny bit of surface rust on passenger side interior door frame that is starting....about the size of two quarters.  It will need attention at some point but again, it has just started and is very minor. 

If you have any questions, please ask.

This is a turnkey truck.  I put it in one show and it won a trophy locally.  It's not absolutely perfect but it is very nice and something you can get in and drive and be very proud of for years to come.  It does get admiring looks and thumbs up whenever I drive. The  velocity yellow paint has a terrific shine and really fits a short bed muscle era truck. Speaking of muscle, this C10 will flat out get up and go! Ive never abused it, but I do enjoy  the sound and the acceleration it provides for a bit of a thrill from time to time.  It is tuned and ready with synthetic oil and non ethanol premium gasoline. I also use a zinc additive when changing oil just for longevity of internal parts.   I am selling because I am building a cabin in Western NC and I need the liquidity. I've enjoyed it and you will too. 

Of course there is no warranty on something of this age.  It is sold as is but I believe you could drive it just about anywhere if you wanted to.

I have a 100% Ebay rating and have sold 3 vehicles over the years on Ebay including a 2011 Cadillac CTSV that I drove to Utah for the buyer! I've had pleasant experiences on eBay and I am a nice man but please don't waste our time if you are not a serious buyer or do not have the funds to complete transaction. I will report non-paying bidders to eBay. 

 I expect a $500 non refundable deposit within 24 hours of auction close. I can store truck in my garage for 30 days until you or your shipper comes to get it. It must be paid in full for me to store. 

I will entertain reasonable offers. If you are out of USA, I would gladly drive truck to one of the ports here in Charleston to be shipped to you. (Buyer pays for actual shipping) The first vehicle I sold on eBay went to Holland!

Thanks for looking at my auction!

2016 Chevy Equinox brings its revised face to Chicago

Thu, Feb 12 2015

It's vital these days for automakers to keep up with the Jones' when in the crossover market. The segment is just too popular among buyers to let a vehicle waste away, and Chevrolet is giving the 2016 Equinox a slight refresh at the Chicago Auto Show to hopefully keep people interested. In reality, though, the CUV isn't too much different beyond a tweaked face and some interior improvements. The exterior now boasts a revised front fascia with a chrome-accented grille and projector beam headlights, and at the rear there are new taillights. Top -evel models get LED running lights, as well. Inside, the Equinox features a standard seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system with a backup cam, and for added safety, the CUV is now available with rear cross traffic and blade zone alert on some trims. Beyond these updates, the powertrains carry over entirely from before with the choice between a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a 3.6-liter V6. These refreshed 2016 models go on sale this fall.

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
