"Where were you in '62" - as the advertisements for 'American Graffiti' use to say. Well, in 1962 this beautiful Chevy C10 shortbed pickup was created. There are many classic pickup's for sale here on Ebay, but what sets this apart from so many others is that it has been in California since day one. In fact, I have restored the "black plates" which have been on this since 1963 !
The truck was painted a urethane 2 stage teal metallic that is vibrant and classic at the same time. The paint looks fantastic and gets compliments all the time. Out back I chose to have world famous 'Gaylords' make a fiberglass hard tonneau cover , then painted it to match the rest of the truck. Inside the bed is as clean as the rest . Stained and multi varnished oak wood strips , separated with chromed steel dividers really give detail . It is what you would expect from a vehicle this clean. Inside the cab has the dash, cab, and doors painted body color. The seat was upholstered in a black leather and velour. In is very comfortable and will not hurt your back after a long road trip . The seat legs, emergency brake handle, accelerator pedal rod, and brake pedal rod were chrome plated for that extra added touch of detail. All of the glass is in excellent condition. windows easily roll up and down like they should. The heater, windshield wipers, lights, turn signals work perfectly. Accessory gauges were install to insure accuracy . They include Amp, Oil pressure, and Temperature. Carpet is black and has floor mats. The engine is a very strong running 350 with 5,000 miles. It has a 4 barrel carb and HEI distributor. The compression ratio is at 9:1 so that it can operate on pump fuel. A very mild RV cam was installed so that extra power and reliability can be insured. Nothing too radical. Longevity was the objective with the build. The transmission is a TH 400 automatic. The shift linkage is connected to the original column shift. I wanted everything original in appearance but with modern amenities. One can literally drive this truck anywhere on the planet. I say that with certainty folks! The truck can sit in the garage for weeks, yet when you get in it, turn the key, she'll start up every time - just like a Timex watch! Dual exhaust is a must with a vehicle like this. A set of magna flow mufflers were installed, and exhaust exits out of the rear - just under the bumper. A pair of chrome "pea shooter" tips complete the look out back. As for wheels and tires, I opted to go with a classic look. Champ Pro 235x75x15 radials with thin white walls , and steel wheels with beauty rings and "dog dish" hubcaps give the pickup a great feel and retro style. There you go folks. There has been a lot of money spent on this beautiful pickup over the years, but I am willing to let this go at a fraction of that amount. If you like what you see, are serious, and not a tire kicker, give me a call. I am open to reasonable offers . Partial trade might be considered. I reserve the right to end auction at any time. Ask all questions prior to bidding and/or purchasing . All sales are final. There are no warrantee's , exchanges, or refunds. I know of two very reasonable & reputable auto transport companies. Buyer pays for shipping, and I will see to it that the truck arrives in a safe and prompt manner. I will gladly ship this anywhere in the world. Feel free to call me any time - day or night. Thanks and have a wonderful day, Alex (909)-437-2068 |

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
Nissan Leaf has outsold Chevy Volt by 50% so far in 2015
Tue, Sep 1 2015We know, we know. The Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf sales numbers for mid- to late-2015 aren't all that meaningful because of the impending arrival of the next-gen Volt and the expected but not-yet-totally-confirmed debut of the second version of the Leaf. Nonetheless, tracking the sales of the first two major plug-in vehicles is something that remains interesting to us, if for nothing else that the all-electric Leaf remains slightly more popular than the plug-in hybrid Volt after all this time. If we just look at August, the numbers were basically tied in the US. Chevy sold 1,380 Volts while Nissan moved 1,393 Leafs. But when we take a 10,000-foot view, the differences starts to appear. So far in 2015, GM has sold 8,315 Chevy Volts while Nissan has sold 12,383 Leafs. That means that the Nissan has outsold the Chevy by around 50 percent (to be specific, it's 48.92 percent). Since the two vehicles went on sale in the US at roughly the same time at the end of 2010, 81,672 Volts have been sold, compared to 84,705 Leafs. That's a difference of only 3,033 vehicles, so proponents of both powertrains can hold their heads high. Looking just at last month, Volt sales were 45 percent lower compared to August 2014. So far this year, Volt sales are down 36.7 percent. The Leaf didn't fare any better. Month-to-month, Leaf sales were down 43.7 percent in August, while year-to-date, Leaf sales are down 65.3 percent. Those second-gen models can't come soon enough. As always, we'll have our broader wrap-up of monthly green car sales for August up soon. Stay tuned. Green Chevrolet Nissan Electric Hybrid ev sales
