1962 Chevy C-10 Fleetside Shortbox Pickup. on 2040-cars

Year:1962 Mileage:100000
Location:

Paris, Michigan, United States

Paris, Michigan, United States

This is a 1962 Chev Short box fleet side pickup I brought back from down south. This has seen no salty winters. The truck has been sitting for a while but I ran gas from a can and electric fuel pump to it and it runs good but needs a oil change desperately as I have not been able to get back to it after I put a quart of trans fluid in it to clean the inside of the motor before the oil change I was going to do and never did. So it will no doubt smoke some when it is started up. Never ran it long so while the motor has no knocks in it there is still the top end tappet noise you get till it has run for a while and gets oil in everything. so what I am trying to say is because I have not driven the truck I can not warranty the motor and the  brakes are not leaking but need to be bled. The body mounts are good and the floors are in good shape as it is from the south but the truck has dings and dents as it is a 1962 and has some but not a lot of thru rust as I just had it professionally sand blasted and primed with 2k primer. The roof is the only thing left to be blasted other then the inside floors. I am selling this as a project from the south for someone to do over the winter. I did not hide any fillers before priming. I even dropped the rear chrome bumper down to show the rear quarters better. There is like new 60s on the back. The inside has rip in seat and is very dirty and dusty and the dash gauge plastic needs to be replaced with the right one. The windshield and drivers side window glass needs to be replaced. These 62 chev shortbox trucks are getting harder to find and more expensive when done when they are solid on the underside like this one.  Feel free to ask any questions as I want the winner to be satisfied. Delivery is available to some locations so Please just ask first to get a price and make sure you are in our delivery areas.

I forgot I have the drivers side window but need a week to go down and pick it up for the high bidder after the auction. it is in my other truck in the south but is included in the auction. Also I am going to sandblast the step sills and the floors and prime them before pick up for the high bidder. Less to do is good.  Have a Great Day!

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

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.
