For sale is my never ending 1970 C10 project. This truck started life in Texas as a long bed. Through the donor program, it now has short wheelbase frame, 1985 Chevy 1/2 ton front suspension (in order to easily convert to front disc brakes). The cab is the only remaining item that has not been changed (VIN plate goes to cab). The 12 bolt diff is out of another donor, of which I have no idea if is road ready or not, cover has not been pulled. New trailing arms and rear springs. I had the truck in the body shop and had the drip rail removed and was in the process of smoothing the fire wall when I trailed off to another project. I have new sheet metal ( front fenders, core support, cowl induction hood, the doors are new, new door hinges, new bed sides (short bed), new tail gate and rear roll pan. I have also the bed wood kit, but it is in long bed format, as the truck was when I started. I was going to cut those down to fit the short bed. I have all the chrome bed strips and mounting hardward for the wood bed kit. New rear cab corners and rocker panels have been welded in, just need to be ground down and clean up. The seats are out of a late model GTO, they are not bolted in truck and I have not build the mounting brackets to do so. I also had started an install of power windows, the driver side is in but needs to be adjusted to raise and lower smoothly, I have the remaining kit to install on pass side, think I bought this kit from Brothers. The cab is mounted to body with a new bushing kit, put in about 2 - 3 months ago. There is a 350 4 bolt main block that goes with the truck. Not sure the year or exactly where I got it at. There is some wear at top of cylinders but should clean up. I have a Ford diff that I had build in 07 that I was going to use for this truck but the direction of build went other ways. The reason was to get the rear disc brakes. As you can see from receipt, I had limited slip with 3.55 ratio installed. Again the cover has not been pulled since it was put together by driveline shop. It also has never been put in vehicle since build. There are several additional parts that goes with truck such as new door handles, some weather stripping, door locks, used master cylinder, keyless entry kit and extra body mounts. I would suggest a local purchase or bringing trailer to get, from my experience, most vehicle delivery companies will not mess with loose components. Buyer is responsible for any shipping requirements and fees. Please contact me with any questions and for shipping/payment information. 443-980-1269, tracy

GM announces 3 new recalls affecting 1.7M vehicles in North America [w/video]
Mon, Mar 17 2014Still embroiled in the ongoing ignition switch recall, General Motors announced today three more discrete recalls, affecting a grand total of 1,546,900 vehicles in the US. The Detroit News reports that some 1.7 million vehicles are affected overall in North America. The first and largest of the trio of new recalls concerns some 1.18-million Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia crossovers from the 2008-2013 model years, Chevrolet Traverse from 2009-2013 (pictured above) and Saturn Outlook vehicles from 2008-2010. All of the crossover utilities may have an issue with the wiring harness for their seat-mounted side airbags. Apparently, the vehicles are equipped with a Service Air Bag warning light that, if ignored, "will eventually result in the non-deployment of the side impact restraints." Those restraints include the side airbags, a front-center airbag if the vehicle is so equipped and seatbelt pretensioners. Dealers of affected vehicles will be instructed to remove driver and passenger side airbag wiring harness connectors, and then "splice and solder the wires together." The second recall affects 303,000 Chevrolet Express (pictured right) and GMC Savana vans from model years 2009-2014, and with gross vehicle weights under 10,000 pounds. Said vehicles do not comply with a head impact requirement for unrestrained occupants, and will need a reworking of the instrument panel material to be sent back on the road. It doesn't sound as though there's a quick fix for this one, as the GM press release states: "Unsold vehicles have been placed on a stop delivery until development of the solution has been completed and parts are available." Finally, the third recall affects 63,900 Cadillac XTS luxury sedans from model years 2013 and 2014. A brake booster pump may be susceptible to corrosion by way of the relay, potentially causing and electrical short, overheating, melting of plastic components and even engine fires. GM says it is aware of two engine fires in unsold XTS models and two cases of melted parts. Repairs for the issues affecting the XTS have not not mentioned by GM in the release. The Detroit News is also reporting that along with news of the triple-recall, GM is taking a $300-million credit to help pay for the repair costs, and to deal with the ongoing costs associated with the ignition switch recall. In an attempt to explain just what GM has been doing in the face of these very serious issues, newly minted CEO Mary Barra has addressed the issues in a new video.
Hot air balloons caught in high winds drag fullsize SUV
Mon, Jul 20 2015A sudden storm front whipped up enough wind to send some hot air balloons flying into the air in Wisconsin over the weekend. One ballon proved so energetic that it was able to drag a fullsize SUV across a field and into a stand of tents. The freak accident occurred at Balloonfest in Waterford, Wisconsin. Spectators were horrified as balloons dragged handlers to the ground and launched with terrified pilots clinging to their baskets. Organizers had started packing up the colorful balloons due to ominous storm clouds when the wind kicked up. "Happened just like that; it was crazy," Nathan Fricke, crew member, told Fox 6. Winds were clocked at 40 to 50 miles per hour. A balloon caught in the wind dragged a large SUV (we think a Suburban or Yukon XL) hundreds of feet and into a cluster of tents on the edge of the staging area where balloons were on display for festival goers. Considering that the SUV surely weighs well over 5,000 pounds, it's lucky that no one was injured in the incident. News Source: Fox6Now Weird Car News Chevrolet GM GMC SUV
2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
