I have for sale, a 1962 Chevy C10 Stepside PU Truck with a three on a tree transmission and a 235 3.9L 6 cylinder engine. Truck has a light blue exterior with white trim and gold interior. The truck is not yet a daily driver and I would not recommend driving it for long distances.Locally should be OK, because I do take it out for a spin once in a while. Just recently replaced the carburetor. Also replaced the main wiring harness and the under dash wiring harness. In the past year, I had a custom exhaust system put on and replaced all the locks in the vehicle. All door locks, ignition switch, and glove box operate with one key. A new floor mat was also replaced along with the front bed panel. The right, rear tire has also been replaced and is like new condition. I replaced the bed flooring and coated it with four coats of linseed oil and Thompson water sealer. Unfortunately, it took a while to install the bed and the flooring did warp but I have it securely assembled. It is a solid floor that looks decent and is usable. The rear bumper and bumper brackets are also missing.
It is an old truck with a lot of surface rust and some badly rusted spots. Floor board and spots on the fenders, to mention a few. The bad news is that when I replaced the wiring harness, The main one worked fine but I believe I had ordered the wrong harness. With that being said, because of it, the heater, wipers, and tail lights do not work. The horn, speedometer, and fuel gauges also do not work and wasn't working when I got it. Horn does work but when a previous owner replaced the steering wheel, they did not connect the horn.
As to why I am selling it after putting in so much cost and effort is because of my significant other. She is tired of looking at it and complains that I spent to much money on it already. I have other parts that I had purchased such as the window and vent glass and weather stripping. Also have the Front clip replacement part for the front of the hood. There are a few other various items I have that I didn't get around to installing yet. Those parts will be included only if the bidding exceeds $2200.
Check out the pictures and if there are any questions, feel free to ask. Anyone with less than 10 feedbacks needs to contact me before bidding or your bid will be cancelled. Don't ask what my minimum bid because that is where the bidding starts. After successfully winning the auction, the bidder must make a $500 dollar deposit with paypal within 48 hours after close of auction. Final payment due within seven days with either cash or a cashiers check. Purchaser must make arrangements to either pick up the vehicle to arrange delivery of the vehicle.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
Chevy Cruze CNG available from Crazy Diamond Performance
Thu, Aug 7 2014Anyone out there who can somehow find a second way to link Pink Floyd to natural gas vehicles gets a prize. Because so far, we have one Michigan-based company called Crazy Diamond Performance (Shine On You Crazy Diamond being a longtime Floyd fave) that's setting out to convert Chevrolet Cruze vehicles to run on compressed natural gas (CNG). All in the name of cheaper fuel and domestic security, of course. Crazy Diamond says it can offer a converted CNG-powered Chevy Cruze for a price as low as $26,000. That four-cylinder version has 130 horsepower and an 8.5-gasoline-gallon-equivalent capacity that provides a full-tank range of as many as 250 miles. Pony up another $2,000 or so and the peppier, turbocharged CNG Cruze can be yours. The company says it will provide a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty and is trying to get EPA certification for its conversions. The selling points are cheaper fuel (CNG is about half the cost of regular gasoline in some parts of the country) and homeland security (CNG reduces dependence on foreign oil). The only production passenger vehicle CNG in the US is the Honda Civic CNG, which sells in very limited numbers. Check out Crazy Diamond's flyer here.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt CarPlay video, Tesla Supercharger importance
Fri, Feb 5 2016A video demonstrates Apple CarPlay on the touch display in the next-generation Chevrolet Volt. The Volt's eight-inch (bigger than an iPad Mini) capacitive display is capable of putting Siri and your iPhone apps and right at your fingertips. It's "the best CarPlay display I've seen," says the user in the video. In case you're not in the market for a new Volt, 9to5Mac offers some of its favorite aftermarket CarPlay screens. See the video above, and read more at 9to5Mac. A single Supercharger can make a big difference in the life of a Tesla owner. Teslarati's Electric Jen talks about purchasing a Model S, being assured by both Tesla employees and the map of planned Supercharger sites that one would be built along an important route for her. With the construction being pushed back, it made visiting family tricky. "As if owning such a grand car isn't embarrassing enough, asking for a ride to drop off and pick up said car because you can't make it home without charging really made me feel awkward," she says. "You see, one single charging location can mean the world to some people," Jen adds. Read the whole article at Teslarati. Tesla once had considered creating mobile range extender trailers for the Model S. Elon Musk touched upon the abandoned idea during his visit to Paris. While Tesla ultimately dismissed the concept, Nomadic Power has taken the opportunity to hitch their product onto the Tesla brand. "We are delighted, that Tesla Motors' CEO Elon Musk is thinking about a concept like ours for even more extending the range of the Tesla models," says Nomadic Power's CEO Manfred Baumgaertner. He adds, "This confirms our approach to build a long distance mobility provider for all electric vehicles on the market." If you say so, Baumgaertner.

When the batteries have degraded to the point that they're no longer suitable for use on the road, they still have a significant capacity that can be used for other purposes. Still useful for stationary storage, they can be used to support charging sites in order to allow for faster charging. The stationary batteries can charge slowly at the site, but then offer up the juice in a hurry when it's needed for a vehicle. Read more from Renault.
