C-10 1967 Chevrolet Short-Wide Pickup

This truck has just undergone a thorough restoration at Rob’s Rods and Restorations in Austin, TX. The cab and bed were removed from the frame, and the frame was sanded and painted. The body panels were mostly taken down to bare metal, straightened beautifully, and finished in basecoat/clearcoat. The entire interior is brand new and features a custom two-tone seat, new headliner, carpet (on the floor and covering the fuel tank behind the seat), Lokar custom shifter, dash, steering wheel, and classic style radio with ipod/aux input. The truck is lowered front and rear, giving it the right stance. Nearly everything has been gone through or replaced, and there are pictures and a big folder of receipts to document it. The list of new items is too long to post here. This truck is solid and rust-free.  It looks good and sounds good, and the pictures speak for themselves.

This truck runs very strong. It features an angle-bored 350, new Edelbrock 750cfm 4-barrel carb with electric choke, Performer RPM intake, 2.02 camel hump heads with roller rockers, Lunati 494 cam, Mallory uni-lite distributor, hooker super comp headers, flowmasters with stainless tips, polished aluminum valve covers, power steering, later model power disc brakes, 4-core radiator, 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission with shift kit, trans cooler, auburn 3.73 posi rear end, front and rear sway bars, custom Lokar shifter, and vintage style autometer tach to count the revs. It will cruise at 2200 rpm at 70mph, and it will get there quickly.

The professional paint job was finished in a Fiat “Avorrio Chiarro” ivory/cream color that looks great. It shows hints of white, ivory, and a hint of banana yellow depending on the light. It’s understated and classy, and very sharp.

The wheels are smoothie style chrome rims, 8” wide in front and 10” wide in back. The front tires are nearly new, and the rears have about 30-40% tread. The p295 tires out back look tough.

Everything works on this truck with the exception of the ammeter and the original coolant temp gauge. The temp gauge is new, but not hooked to an original style sensor.  The wiring on the truck has been upgraded with a more modern blade-style fuse box.

The paint and body work is very nice and straight with very few imperfections, but it does have a couple of touch-ups. Bumpers are not show quality, but look nice. Please review the pictures.

The truck just had an oil change with 10w30 synthetic, has new trans fluid and coolant, and is ready for the road.

I ENCOURAGE YOU TO COME LOOK AT THE TRUCK AND TAKE A TEST DRIVE.

Opel's version of the Chevy Bolt will confuse people at Paris Motor Show

Fri, Aug 26 2016

Two things are now official. First, Opel will reveal the Ampera-e, or the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt, at the Paris Motor Show in October. Second, General Motors has outdone itself in brand confusion, topping the Bolt/Volt ridiculousness. Opel isn't giving a single-charge range for the Ampera-e but the company is promising a "significantly longer range" than other electric vehicles. The Bolt is estimated to have a 200-mile range on the EPA scale, so whatever the Opel achieves on the European cycle will be done with the same batteries and motor as the Chevy. Opel is also looking to appeal to the auto enthusiasts with other factoids, which are basically just Bolt stats translated into metric. For instance, the Ampera-e will be able to go 0 to 50 kilometers per hour (which is 31 miles per hour to us Americans, but we're talking Europe here) in just 3.2 seconds. And for those looking to stay connected, as many as seven mobile devices can attached to the car's wireless hot spot. GM said in February that the European of the Bolt would be available across the pond next year, so the most recent bit of news isn't shocking. Still, General Motors continues to create confusion between all-electric Bolt and the extended-range plug-in Volt. It's already been reported that the Korean symbol and pronunciation of what is "B" in English is identical to the English "V," meaning that there is no difference between "Bolt" and "Volt" in that country (though there are no plans to sell the Bolt in South Korea as of yet). Now, in Europe, they're taking the name they used to use for the European of the Volt — Ampera — and merely adding an "-e" at the end of it. For those looking to be less confused, take a look at Opel's press release here.

GM Recalling 370,000 Trucks For Fire Risk

Mon, Jan 13 2014

DETROIT (AP) - General Motors is recalling 370,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups from the 2014 model year to fix software that could cause the exhaust components to overheat and start a fire. The recall includes 303,000 trucks in the U.S. and 67,000 in Canada and Mexico. All of the trucks involved have 4.3-liter or 5.3-liter engines. GM said eight fires have been reported, but no injuries. One garage was damaged, the company said. All of the incidents occurred in cold weather. The company is asking customers not to leave their trucks idling unattended. GM dealers will reprogram the software for free. The company will inform owners starting Jan. 16. The major recall announcement, which came on Saturday, marred the Silverado's winning of the 2014 North American Truck of the Year Award at the Detroit Auto Show on Monday.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The 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.
