Super clean survivor c-10 heavy half
 This truck was sold and stayed in Twin Falls ID (dry climate) the first 41 years of its life.
Then was bought by a c-10 collector that went thru the low mile truck and drove it 1-2k miles a year. There was 4-5k worth of recent upgrades to keep this a dependable driver.
-
Truck had a light camper on it for most of its life and was kept covered. The wood is original and amazing condition. There was no dents inside the bed on side walls, tail gate or fender wells. V-8, 4 speed with granny low, manual brake and steering. Drives good on freeway.
Much has been done to make the a great driver. I have used it as a daily driver for 3 weeks with no concerns including a few cruises with the car club.  All lights, turn signal, horn heater, defroster and dome light works. The temp gauge is not accurate and now has aftermarket under dash gauge.
The miles are 85,121k, and are believed to be true. The steering wheel; looks nice,  dash is good and all the windows and in good condition including the new shaded windshield.  Car has little miles on the tires and  shocks. The steering and brakes are firm and tight.and a list of recent services are:
-Battery
-Tune up & ignition wire sets
-Cleaned and serviced radiator & Hoses
-New belts
-Chrome rally's and new tires
-HD gas shocks front and rear
-Over sized front sway bar
-Vintage look stereo with door speakers ( uncut dash)
Windshield and rubber
The interior is amazing, not perfect but it is all original. The windows all roll up and down smooth and the doors are all in align and close with ease. I would not hesitate to drive this car as is on a long journey. No water leaks even when left out in the rain.
 I have sold several of my collector cars and some for friends on e-bay.
Please remember although this is the nicest original C-10 Custom cab I have seen in years, it is 49 years old and will have some flaws. After a carfull inspection on the hoist I found light rust starting on the lower corner of drivers fender and old fix on right fender. The rest is great, solid rockers, door bottoms, body and bed mounts, cab corners & ect. Overall a very solid and dry truck! No rattles and handles like a car with the upgraded shocks,  and sway bar.

Road tests and inspection are welcome and encouraged. - Steve Fisher 206-755-3420

Will Chevy Bolt get Opel badge in Europe?

Sat, Mar 7 2015

General Motors' European plug-in vehicle name may go from A to B. That's because the Chevrolet Bolt could be sold under GM's Opel brand across the Pond, Automotive News Europe says, citing people familiar with the process that it declined to identify. The Ampera, the European version of the Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle, is being phased out due to poor sales. While the Ampera won the European Car of the Year in 2012, its sales have trended well below expectations. That the Bolt would be sold as an Opel hints to us that GM expects to distribute the electric vehicle in far smaller numbers than in the US. The Bolt, which was introduced in January in its concept version at the North American Auto Show in Detroit, will have a single-charge range of about 200 miles. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGeen on Friday afternoon. The car will also have a price tag in the US of about $30,000, factoring in federal-government tax incentives. That's if those tax incentives are still around in 2017, when the Bolt is expected to debut stateside.

The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land

Thu, Oct 15 2015

Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production by more than 20%

Sat, Jun 13 2015

General Motors' Orion Assembly plant in Michigan is seeing even more production cuts this year to further reduce inventories of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano. These latest adjustments mean layoffs for about 100 workers in phases starting in July. "GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand," the company said in a statement announcing the change. Through May, sales of the Sonic are down 28.5 percent to 29,082 vehicles, and the Verano is off 15.6 percent, with 15,279 sold this year. According to unnamed plant insiders speaking to Automotive News, the assembly rate is slowing at Orion Assembly from the current 33 cars an hour down to 26 an hour, a 21-percent reduction. GM is also reportedly going to keep the plant idle for three weeks during the normal summer shutdown, rather than the usual two. Earlier in the year, the factory was idled for two weeks due to excess supply of the Sonic and Verano. In March, it was closed again for several days for the same reason. The Orion Assembly plant is the future home to the line for the Chevy Bolt EV. GM Statement: GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand. A phased layoff of approximately 100 employees will begin in July 2015 and conclude by year-end.
