Here we have a very rare and original "untouched" 1963 Chevrolet C-10 truck. This is a stepside model with 54,534 original miles on it. The engine is a 230 High Torque six cylinder with a "3 on the tree" manual transmission and column shift. It's a really fun truck to drive and runs great!  I recently replaced the heater core, thermostat and fuel pump. I also added lap belts. In 2005 I had the steering column rebuilt. 


Some important features that make this truck extra special are the fact that it only has one side mirror, one sun visor and no rear view mirror. They are not missing, they were never ordered in the truck in the first place. There are no drilled holes where these parts would normally go either! This is about as bare bones as they come. The original owner must have felt like those things were just too fancy for him (or her). it also has the original radio delete plate on the dash. You will have to find a new clip for it or use some double sides tape to keep in on.

Other features include white bumpers, white grill, small rear window, and (nylon bias ply tires Including spare) on original 15" steel wheels. The tires are Silvertown 6.70 reproductions with a lot of tread life still on them. This thing looks straight off the farm or moonshine distillery.

The paint is all original but the guy I bought it from back on 2005 said that he had heard the owner before him had painted the doors from just below the round part because it used to have a sign painted on it from the original owner. You can't tell though as it all looks original. The paint is very shiny still but there are a few spots where it is wearing thin and some dull spots. There are a few small dings in the hood, back fenders and one near the rear window. These are very minor though. 

There is no rust, rot or replaced panels of any kind on this truck. The wood on the back is very nice still. The tailgate is in great shape too with minimal wear on the edge. Please see photos.

I bought his truck on ebay back in 2005. At the time, it had just over 50,000 miles on it. I barely drove this truck as you can see by the miles on it now. I hate to sell it but I know somebody will really drive it and appreciate it.
This would be a very nice truck for driving around town or hauling your gardening supplies. It would also be a great truck for any Twilight fans out there because it looks very similar to Bella's truck. You could paint it red and let your daughter or wife drive it. it would also be great start for a custom or super nice truck with a big engine because the body is so straight and rust free.

It runs really nice. The only thing it needs is a new tail pipe from just past the muffler. I think the steering column linkage could use a little greasin' too to help the shifter move a little more easily. I would also think about tightening up the exhaust manifold. These things are very minor though.

Please message me with any questions you might have.

Good luck and thank you for looking at my auction.

GM issues stop-sale for 3 SUVs over incorrect MPG rating

Fri, May 13 2016

This week, GM sent a memo to Chevy, GMC, and Buick dealers to tell them to stop selling three SUVS. The 2016 Chevy Traverse, the GMC Acadia, and the Buick Enclave all have EPA window stickers that show higher fuel economy ratings than the vehicles actually have. Unlike other recent – and very public – fuel economy ratings problems from VW and Mitsubishi, it doesn't seem like GM did anything wrong with the testing for these vehicles, it just misprinted the labels. New labels are being printed and should arrive at dealerships this weekend and early next week. After that, the SUVs will be able to be sold and delivered again. The official fuel economy rating for the three SUVs are all the same. The correct numbers for the all-wheel drive versions are 17 miles per gallon combined, 15 city, and 22 highway. The stickers say the SUVs get 17/24/19. The front-wheel driver models were also incorrectly labeled, and the total number of affected vehicles is 59,823. In the memo, GM said the problem was caused by an "inadvertent error," Automotive News says. GM is working with the EPA to solve the issue. We have asked GM for a comment on the mistake and will update this post if we hear back. Related Gallery 2013 GMC Acadia View 16 Photos News Source: Automotive News – sub. req.

2020 Chevy Trax and Buick Encore spied testing

Tue, Aug 14 2018

We just recently saw a little crossover SUV from General Motors being tested, and we weren't positive what brand it belonged to. We narrowed it down to Chevy or GMC, but we're feeling more confident that it's a GMC now, since both the next generation Chevy Trax and Buick Encore subcompact crossover SUVs have been spied testing together. Of the two, the Chevy has the more radically different sheet metal. It ditches the somewhat frumpy, lumpy shape of the current Trax for a body inspired by the bigger Chevy Blazer. The roofline has sharp corners, and the hood is wide and flat. The front fascia, though obscured, shows the most connection to the bigger crossover. It has the same split headlight configuration, and it looks as though the grille takes up a sizable section of the fascia. View 7 Photos The Buick Encore on the other hand looks evolutionary in design. The body still has plenty of curves, and the distinctive, sharply rising window sill are all hallmarks of the current Encore design. The headlights and grille are similar, too, though the grille appears to be slightly updated to fit in with the Enclave and Regal. It's understandable that Buick might want to play it safe with the new Encore, since the model is Buick's best seller, selling about 23,000 units in the last quarter, nearly twice that of the next best performer, the Enclave. Since this is the first time we've seen these little crossovers, we expect it will still be a year or two before we get to see them fully revealed. They will probably continue to use small-displacement turbocharged four-cylinder engines with either front- or all-wheel drive. Related Video:
