1966 Chevy Shortbed Stepside Custom Cab Trim. New engine and transmission and interior. California truck with Black plates. NO RESERVE.
Let me get your attention first with the details and then follow up with the rest.
This is a desirable, stock, very solid California stepside shortbed with Custom Cab trim. Rebuilt 350, 30 over bore, moderate cam, Holley carb, MSD ignition, Chrome alternator and 12 month warranty. Aluminum radiator. New dual exhaust. Rebuilt 3 speed auto trans with warranty. Rebuilt balanced driveshaft with U joints. New brake master and wheel cylinders and shoes. New upholstered stock bench seat with tweed insert. New molded stock carpet. New windshield and seal. New door seals. New bed wood and bed strips. NOS vintage AM/FM Cassette radio and speakers.
I am done spending money on this truck and it is being sold. This was to be the nice vintage truck I always wanted with great patina to drive every day. We looked a long time to find one that was not rotted out. I even put my fathers shop logo on the door from when I was a kid in Fullerton California. I wildly underestimated the costs to restore and refit the truck and ran out of funds before I could finish with air conditioning, wide tires and lowering springs. With over $7K into it I am not done yet but need to cash out. It has a vintage patina that took 45 years to create. No intention of ever painting it. I posted a lot of body pictures to show how solid the cab, fender tips and wheel wells are. It is Shortbed Custom cab so it has the extra trim and the full gauges on the dash. All the expensive and hard work has been done. It runs very quick and stops. All the lights, wipers etc work. I replaced the gas sender and had the tank flushed and cleaned and the gas gauge worked. Then it stopped working. It reads when the key is off but swings to zero when the key is on. Strange?? So not working correctly. New windshield and seal and door seals. The wood had issues like so many old trucks so new wood and bed strips were installed.
As listed above, we rebuilt most all the running gear. The engine and trans have warranties at a local shop in Temecula California. The interior is comfortable, quiet and has a new car smell. Dual exhaust has a very nice rumble but the tone is not too loud. I found an NOS stereo still in the box from the 70's and it sounds great with new speakers. Break out your Beach Boys and Eagles cassettes.
The truck runs great and can be driven anywhere. But it is old so sold as-is please for this kind of money. The warranties transfer over for the engine and trans but is a local shop. So please no regrets or complaints. Do not overbid to secure the win, and then attempt to kick the tires when you get here. I have a 100% feedback for selling fair and leave room for the buyer to drive the truck, work on it, and still make money later. I do not want any issues. The terms are $500 paypal or cash deposit in 24 hours and balance within 3 days by cash or bank check express mail. I can store the truck here for 30 days or more while you get transportation. Just pay on time. We move on to back-up buyers if you miss the terms. Sorry, but the idea is to sell the truck for money and to move on. I will not wait weeks for the funds before moving on to the next high bidder.
Selling the truck local for $8.5K. Always interested in hearing what the truck is worth to you.

Weekly Recap: Geneva's splendor reflects growing demand for ultra-luxury cars
Sat, Mar 7 2015Geneva is one of the most glittering auto shows in the world, but the list of high-powered and bespoke luxury cars was decadent this year even by the rich standards of the Swiss exhibition. It's great for enthusiasts to revel in the flame-throwing Aston Martin Vulcan, the racing-inspired elegance of the Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 concept and the insane performance of the Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce, but there's a reason for all of this opulence: the luxury market is big business. And it's growing. IHS Automotive forecasts that so-called ultra-premium sales will nearly triple this decade from 123,000 to 353,000 units around the world. The estimate includes brands like Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari and Rolls-Royce, but doesn't count BMW, Mercedes and Audi, which offer less expensive models in addition to their high-end flagships. Though IHS includes Porsche and its relatively large volume in the study, the ultra-premium segment is still set grow at about the same rate, even without the German automaker's figures. So what is propelling all of this growth in the most expensive segment of the auto industry? Put simply, there's more rich people. IHS Automotive principal analyst Tim Urquhart pointed to economic expansion in China, market recovery in the United States and a surge in the lucrative technology sector as contributing factors. This dovetails with a research report by UK-based Oxfam, an international relief organization, which found the world's richest one-percent owned 48 percent of global wealth in 2014, and it's expected to increase to more than 50 percent by 2016. View 17 Photos Carmakers are moving quickly to capitalize with new products, expanding their portfolios with low-volume speedsters like the 800-hp V12 Vulcan at Geneva, and plans to enter new segments, like Rolls-Royce's strategy to make an SUV. "Ultra-premium carmakers are looking to explore ways of growing their product offerings, and thus their bottom lines, in this most potentially profitable of segments," Urquhart wrote in a report on the Geneva show. In a nutshell, there are more choices for people with more money. It's a good time to have expensive taste. Other News & Notes 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata production launches It won't be long now. The 2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata arrives later this year, and it's officially in production. Mazda announced this week that the roadster began rolling off the assembly line at its Ujina factory in Hiroshima, Japan.
Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady
Mon, Nov 3 2014Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon.

GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident
Fri, Dec 5 2014Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.
