1965 Chevrolet C10 short bed step side pickup truck. 19,000 miles approx. on a new 350 motor right out of the crate, new transmission, driveline, steering column, flowmaster exhaust, on and on. I bought the truck on ebay from Texas, had a mechanic drop in the new engine and all the mechanical work(just about everything was replaced). I had Josh Carter autobody take the body all apart, sand blast it to bare metal (except cab), weld in any new metal needed, replaced body parts, prime and paint color (Corvette Torch Red) and clear coat. Many new chrome and parts from classic truck catalog, new seat upholstery, new wiring harness etc. etc. The truck has a few needs, some gauges don't work(fuel, odometer). The odometer broke at 57000 miles, but actually it has about 19,000 miles on the engine. I believe that a new dash gauge kit from catalog should fix this, or it might be as simple as a new cable connector, the gas gauge might be as simple as a new float in the gas tank. I am not an automotive individual, so I don't know how to check to see if those simple solutions might be the problem and I have already put over $20,000 into the vehicle and don't want to invest any more, as I don't use the truck anymore. I have had the truck for almost 8 years (it was in pieces for 1 1/2 years) I used to drive it to work and back 2 days a week, but am now retired and have no need for the truck. I have all documention for what was put into the truck. The truck has always been kept in the garage and not driven in the weather and it comes with custom truck cover (I used it when I parked on campus, where I worked). The truck sits in our garage, but I do take it out on the road every couple of weeks for 10-20 miles just to keep everything up. This truck is very nice and would make a great vehicle for someone's hobby, or as a fun truck to drive.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
GM profits threatened by glut of pickups
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
