up for grabs is a neat old 1965 Chevrolet C-10 (1/2 ton) that came from the factory fairly rarely equipped in that it still has its #'s matching original 283 V8 and is a factory automatic, and it has the rarer and more highly sought after big rear window and is a Custom Cab truck. It is a longbed but it had a camper on it most of its life so the bed is in rare beautiful shape w/ most of the wood still in it, perfect undented inside panels and a perfect tailgate. This truck has an uncut radio hole with the original AM radio still in it, and no rust above the visors or outside the cab roof which is hard to find on a big window truck. Some kids had the truck for a while and they took the camper off and removed the original 2bbl intake and carb in favor of an aluminum intake, and when the truck was sold they kept the carb, so it needs a carb to run. Needs a radiator put back in it too. Everything else is there and will be easy to get running again. Was last driven approx 5 yrs ago. Details below. Call with questions 256 486 1988


The GOOD: The bed is in unusually nice shape and has a perfect tailgate and inner box. The truck is a Custom Cab so it has all the cool chrome stuff and aluminum grille. The 283 V8 is said to run well and has the ultra-rare "WE" suffix code which denotes it as a correct 65 truck 283 w/ Powerglide trans. Has the original factory V8 rear end. Has no rust through in the roof or inside above the visors. All glass is good and back window is factory "Soft Ray" Tinted glass (very rare). The radio hole is uncut and the original radio is still in it. The whole truck is very straight with only 1 paintjob largely sprayed directly over the factory red paint. Has the rarer deluxe guage package instead of idiot lights. rust in the cab floor along the sill plates is normal and will not be too bad to fix. 

The BAD: The cab needs what is called "outer cab floor" patch panels (see LMC truck, Jim Carter or other aftermarket catalog) inner and outer rockers and the front cab support on the drivers side all replaced. Needs minor rust repair to the hood's nose towards the pass side park light and pass side rear support area. Some of the bed wood is rotted out. Truck needs a carburator, tune up parts and a radiator to run. Will certainly need a brake job too. Needs rust repair to both front fenders and some average door bottom repair. Has a thin area of bondo (not thick or reconstructive) on the drivers qtr behind the wheel opening - otherwise appears to be 99% bondo free. This was used to smooth a light dent - when you feel behind it you can feel no dents or serious damage - very straight actually. 

Look at the pictures and I think you will see this truck is begging for a restoration and will make someone a very beautiful truck for a lot less cost than a lot of poorer condition trucks you see like it for this price range. Call Steve 256 486 1988 to come see it or ask questions....

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.

In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Reese Counts and Associate Editor Joel Stocksdale.

Then they dish on the cars they've been driving, including the Lexus UX, Lexus GS F and Volvo V90, as well as riding in the new Mercedes-Benz GLS.
