You are bidding on a Clean 1968 Chevrolet C-10 LS5.3 Swap- Very low mile LS 5.3 cable drive mated to 4L60-E  transmission. 

 The LS 5.3 was rebuilt around 5k miles ago and is new from the oil pan up and 4L60e transmission has around 60k miles. 
 PSI Tuned Computer and Harness- Programmed for the wheels and 410 gears
 Holley 255 fuel pump with Stainless braided lines from fuel cell to engine
 Cold air intake
 2 fan radiator
 MSD plug wires
 B&M Megashifter
 Rear end is 12 bolt Eaton with 410 gears
 Stainless headers and Flowmaster 2.5in mufflers cut off before the axle
 13 gallon fuel cell in bed
 New front and rear shocks
 Power steering and Brakes- Disc up front and drums in the rear

The body is pretty straight and looks good. There is some rust in the bed and around the drip rail but doesn't bother me enough to fix it.I personally like the old school looks of the rig and enjoy the convenience of getting 20+ Mpg due to the efficiency of fuel injection. You can literally jump in this truck and drive anywhere! Undercarriage has very little surface rust. I took as many pics as I could to show the condition of the truck.
Wheels are 20x8 Centerlines and the tires have around 70% tread remaining... Its hard to not put your foot in it.

 Interior is pretty clean. See pics
 New Grant steering wheel
 CD player
 New battery
 New seat cover but original has tears and needs to be recovered
 GPS heads up speedometer- Typically these conversions on Ebay do NOT have a working speedometer and its never mentioned in the auction.

These trucks are getting hard to find without spending a fortune and this one is pretty much ready to go. I drive the truck daily and there are no problems to speak of other than the brakes needing to be bled. The engine is new and strong unlike most of the C-10s on Ebay people are selling that have a motor pulled out of an old truck with 100k+ miles on it... I have a new master cylinder that will be included in the auction.  I also have a Summit racing tachometer that's included that I haven't had the time to hook up.This is a no  reserve auction and will be sold to the highest bidder. I do have the truck for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.  Please DO NOT BID if you have zero or negative feedback or I will cancel your bid and block you.  Please email me or call 501-831-2762 if you  have any questions. Buyer is responsible for shipping but I will help with delivery inside 30 miles. Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding!

Nissan Leaf hits 3,000 sales in July, Chevy Volt climbs over 2,000

Fri, Aug 1 2014

It was a good sales month for both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt, with the two 'elder statesman' plug-in vehicles reaching numerical milestones in July. The Leaf sold 3,019 units and the Volt crossed the 2,000 sales level for the first time in 2014, hitting 2,020 sales. With Tesla also announcing it is delivering around 2,500 Model S EVs a month (but that's globally, compared to the US-only numbers for the Volt and Leaf we're talking about here) and Ford's plug-in vehicles selling well, we are certainly in a golden moment for EV sales. The Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. For the Volt, the 2,020 units sold represents a 13 percent increase from July of 2013 even thought year-to-date sales are down 8.7 percent this year compared to last year. Overall, total Chevrolet deliveries for July 2014 were up eight percent compared to 2013, so the Volt was a bright spot for the Bowtie brand last month. On the Leaf front, this is only the second time that the EV has sold more than 3,000 units in a month (the other being in May of this year). The year-over-year increase for the Leaf was 62 percent in July and represents the 17th straight month of record sales, as Nissan is more than happy to report each month. Overall, Leaf sales are up 34.6 percent, year-to-date, and Nissan's director of Leaf sales and infrastructure, Brendan Jones, said in a statement that a free public charging incentive was responsible. "Since we launched the No Charge to Charge promotion in the first 10 markets, we've seen a surge in Leaf sales in those areas. Leaf sales in the northeastern US are also picking up with new tax incentives for Massachusetts and Maryland residents." With No Charge To Charge set to expand to 25 markets over the next year, we expect Leaf sales to continue to grow. We will have our monthly look at all green car sales available soon, so stay tuned.

Foreign automakers pay from $38 to $65 per hour to non-union workers

Sun, Mar 29 2015

As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.

2015 Chevy Colorado takes Motor Trend Truck of the Year calipers [w/videos]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

The final winner of Motor Trend's prestigious Golden Calipers has been named, with the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado taking the title of 2015 Truck of the Year, likely shocking those who thought Ford's all-aluminum, next-generation F-150 would take the crown. But win the Colorado did, beating not only the new Ford, but two other brutish Blue Ovals in the F-450 and Transit. The midsize pickup also bested its brethren from General Motors, beating the heavy-duty Chevy Silverado 3500, GMC Sierra Denali 2500 and the GMC Canyon, the Colorado's fraternal twin. After an unprecedented two-year stint with the Golden Calipers, Ram sat this year's awards out. Most impressive about the Colorado's victory isn't that it simply beat the US market's other trucks, it did so with a unanimous vote. Praise from MT's editors focused on the trucklet's price, spacious interior, fit and finish and performance. Former Autoblog staffer Jonny Lieberman called the Colorado's steering the best he'd "ever experienced on any truck, full stop," in MT's awards article. "After days of testing, hundreds of miles on the road, and our most rigorous truck testing program to date, our editors unanimously selected the Chevy Colorado as our 2015 Truck of the Year," said MT boss Edward Loh. "Colorado is a smart, capable, and refreshingly honest truck that makes a strong value and efficiency statement. It's perfectly sized and suited for the needs of many of today's truck users." The Colorado joins the 2015 Volkswagen Golf and 2015 Honda CR-V among Motor Trend 2015 award winners.
