This auction is for a 1970 Chevrolet C10 pickup truck. It features a fresh 350 CID engine bored .030", Crane Cam 268H,rebuilt cast heads, headers, Weiand intake & Edelbrock carb, gear drive timing chain,Melling HV oil pump, HEI ignition system, Flex-a-lite dual fan setup. The engine and transmission have less than 4000 miles since rebuilt. The trans is a beefed up TH350, with shift kit.The motor runs very nicely, no smoke, no leaks. This truck also has a new ClassicAuto Air PerfectFit AC& heat system installed (less than 500 miles ago).
The suspension has been lowered via springs, the front end was rebuilt. The rear end is a 12 bolt with 3.55 gears and was rebuilt .The truck recently had a power disc brake conversion (front) done as well as new rear brakes. It also had a power steering conversion done as well, these conversions have less than 1000 miles on them.The tires are in good shape and are mounted on 15" 6 lug Rally wheels. The truck rides and handles very nicely.The undercarriage is pretty clean ,detailed and presentable.
The body was repainted in 2011 according to previous owner,it is a metallic red that looks more maroon than red. The paint could use a proper wetsand & buff to cut some obvious orange peel and smooth out the paint surface. The only body issues I see are on the roof, they smoothed out the rear seam on roof and did some rust repairs in the rain gutter areas (typical C10 rust) that look like they are bubbling back out. There is also some surface rust on inside of roof that was not properly repaired and will need to be addressed.I have been associated with this truck since early 2012 and these issues were present then and have remained in the same stages since. These are the only areas that I see any issue with. There are also a few surface scratches on exterior that will easily buff out as they are not thru to base coat.The hood is a fiberglass 3" cowl hood, the tailgate has been shaved, the rear has been rollpanned.The tonneau cover fits tight and does keep the bed dry. The bed has an upholstered pad(removeable) . The exterior trim looks to be in great condition.
The interior is very nice, very recent upholstery job. The seat is tweed & vinyl , the headliner matches as do the door panels. The gauge cluster is all new Autometer analog gauges (just done). The wing windows have been eliminated as well, the rear window is a slider.
All in all this is a very good starter hotrod pickup. All the heavy lifting has been done with over $25,000 invested over 2 owners. It is a truck that can either be driven the way it is or spend a few more bucks , fix the roof and take it to the next level, either way its an awesome deal!
I am representing the owner in this auction, I have done a lot of work to this truck and know it very well. If you have any questions you can either email thru this ad or call me during the day at 954-782-2263 evenings at 954-401-3480 ask for Bob

Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain
Sat, Aug 9 2014Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
