Please read this entire add before bidding as I believe the add with the pictures will answer most questions.  I will go over the good and the bad and tell you everything I know about this truck.

Body:  The body on this truck is straight and overall solid with some rust bubbling in the lower doors and the lower fender extensions, some small spots above the drip rails and a small spot on the drivers inside rocker panel.  The rust is not horrible or rotted out.  The passenger side rocker panel was replaced.  The floor boards appear to be solid.  The bottom of the doors look nice.  The trim, chrome on the truck is nice, front bumper and grill surrounds are nice.

Paint:  As you  can see the truck is black in color and shines nicely.  This is driver quality paint, it has some checking in spots along with chips and blemishes that have been brush touched.  The paint looks good from 10 feet away and would be fine for a daily driver but in my opinion needs to be redone.

Running Gear:  The truck has the original running gear as far as I can tell to include the closed knuckle front end with power drum brakes.  I do not know what gear ratio it has.  The frame has a weld on the passenger side (See Pic), I have no idea why its there, however its a very nice clean weld.  The truck has a late model gm power steering box that was fitted to the original frame and reinforced with plate steel.

Engine and Transmission:  The engine is a 454 BBC with a mild cam, the motor sounds great with a mild lope to it, runs nice with good power.  The transmission is a turbo 350 that shifts nicely with no slipping, controlled by an aftermarket floor shifter.  I do not know the mileage on either the transmission or the engine.

Interior:  The interior is in nice shape, however needs a dash pad and the visors could use some attention and it could use a carpet kit.  The bench seat is in good shape as well.  It has a tach dash cluster that works, cd player.  All glass is in very nice condition.

Overall:  This is a great looking, rare short bed K10 4x4 with a 454 that drives down the road nice.  This truck gets Lots of attention, nearly every time I drive it someone asks me about it or complements it. 

I have listed everything I know about the vehicle, the good with the bad so please take time to look at the pictures and judge for yourself.  I encourage anyone serious about the truck to come look at it or have someone look at it prior to bidding.

I'm listing this truck for a friend who took it on trade for a Porsche he had and has since decided he wants to go in a different direction.  The truck is currently registered in CA and has a clear title in my buddies name.  Please contact me with any questions you may have, if I can answer them I will or if you would like to speak the owner I can make arrangements for that to happen.


This truck will be sold as is, where is.  If shipping is required I will do whatever I can to assist, however the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs.  

There will be a $1000.00 non refundable deposit required via paypal with in 24 hours of the auction ending.  If you can not complete this please do not bid.

I also have this truck for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early if the truck sells locally.  

Thanks!!

Crash victim found still inside car 6 hours after it was towed away [w/video]

Wed, Jan 7 2015

Police near Dayton, OH, have quite a confusing case on their hands after the victim of a crash early on New Year's Day couldn't initially be found. Six hours later, the man was discovered lying on the vehicle's floorboard at the tow yard. The unidentified person was admitted to a local hospital in critical condition with possible leg injuries. The police first responded to the scene of the crash around 3:00 am on New Year's Day when a Chevrolet Impala hit a utility pole and drove through a fence, according to WHIO News. The authorities claim that they searched for the man for an hour and a half and came up with nothing. The car was then hauled away to the yard, which was only about 500 feet away. The tow yard worker found the man around 9:00 am and called 911. However, he was clearly dubious about the injured man's predicament and suggested to the operator that he might have returned to the Impala. Police are still investigating the incident. According to WHIO, authorities might have somehow missed the man in the sedan during the search. Alternatively, he could have left the scene of the accident and later returned. Watch the video below for more about this bizarre case. The video meant to be presented here is no longer available. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Chevy Bolt wins 2017 Green Car of the Year

Thu, Nov 17 2016

We knew that a plug-in vehicle was going to win the 2017 Green Car of the Year award this year, given that all five finalists have a way to charge up. And when Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, announced the winner – the 2017 Chevy Bolt EV – he said that the car itself represents one of those times in the auto industry when everything is about to change. Similar to the invention of the starter motor, things are about to get different. For now, though, the fact that the Bolt EV won an award sounds like the same old thing all over again. Just this week, it was named Motor Trends Car of the Year and to the Car And Driver Top 10 list. The other four finalists for Green Car of the Year included the Toyota Prius Prime, the Chrysler Pacifica, the Kia Optima (including hybrid and plug-in hybrid models) and the BMW 330e iPerformance. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt. Did Green Car Journal make the right selection this year? See the award ceremony below.
