71 Chevrolet C-10 Pickup, Long Wide Bed, 305 V8, 350 Turbo trans. 5-lug, power steering, manual disk brakes. I have a power brake booster and brackets that will go with the truck.

A good daily driver, not a show truck. Runs and drives great!

New bumpers, new dash bezel, new clear side markers, nice interior, good dash pad and seat, carpet, etc. 

Bedslide in the bed has been taken out, but will go with the truck, and a soft tonneau cover that opens on gas struts and also unsnaps and rolls up for use with tall loads.


I have two of these trucks, one is a project that I am getting close to having back on the road. I bought this one to drive while my orange truck was in pieces. Once the orange 71 is running I no longer need this one so it is available.

Camaro 20 inch wheels with near new rear tires, fronts are about 30%. Shiny paint, but it was intended as a daily driver so the bodywork was not done to show standards, they painted over some small dents and dings, etc.

Problems:

The 305 short block was professionally rebuilt and blueprinted about 60,000 miles ago, but they put used heads on it and now the valve seals are starting to leak so it puffs out a little smoke when you first fire it up. I have a pair of 350 GM crate motor heads that came on my project truck's Goodwrench crate engine that have never been run. These are BRAND NEW heads from General Motors, not rebuilts, that I will let go with the truck for another $200 if you want them. Heads are not for sale by themselves.

The exhaust is in awful shape, it was a bad custom job to begin with and did not fit well, it has at least one small leak, is up against the frame in a couple of places, and needs re-doing. I have a good used pair of Hooker headers and mufflers with turndowns that will fit this truck for another $150 if you want them. Headers are not for sale separately.

The heater controls in the dash have been replaced and look great but don't work correctly and will need to be sorted out. The radio hole in the dash has been hacked.

Has the wrong lower radiator hose on it, it works but does not fit well at all and needs replaced.

Has the wrong shifter linkage on it and will not allow you to pull it down into low or second, just Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive. Current linkage is off a Chevy passenger car of some kind. Does not hurt driving the truck but should be changed at some point. I have the correct linkage and it goes with the truck.

Has a new passenger side front fender, but they put it on incorrectly and the inner fender won't line up. You can see it in some of the pictures. Will need to be adjusted. Has some adhesive or putty of some sort on the bottom of the new fender that does not show up well on the pictures that will need to be cleaned off.

Starter is going, it still works but don't have as much oomph as it used to, so it will need replacing soon. I may change it if I can get a weekend that is not way cold or rainy, but it still starts the truck so I have not been in a hurry on it.

I like this truck and was going to do some stuff to it when I got done with the other truck, so I bought a brand new 3 inch front / 4 inch rear drop springs and an adjustable track bar from Classic Industries. This is the maximum drop without using drop spindles on the front. They are still in the original boxes. Entire setup for $300 if you want it along with the truck. Not for sale separately. If I sell the truck without any of the extra parts listed, I may sell them through other auctions later so watch Ebay for them.

I also have a set of 7 X 15 stock truck rally wheels with rings, caps and usable tires if you prefer. The Camaro wheels do not bolt directly on these trucks and have to have thick adapters and spacers to fit correctly. I have been running them with no problems for the last 6 months or so, but some people don't like adapters so I felt I should mention it. I will knock $800 off the price if you don't want the Camaro wheels and put the rallies on instead.

If you don't want the bedslide and tonneau cover, I will knock off some on the price and keep them as well.

Chevy Trax engineer says GMC version possible

Mon, Dec 8 2014

The Buick Encore is doing so well and its platform-mate the Chevrolet Trax has such good reviewer vibes going for it already, that a GMC version hasn't been ruled out. During the recent press launch, Automotive News asked lead engineer Al Manzor if the Trax could wear a GMC-branded suit, to which Manzor replied, "I think that is certainly possible." That's a long way from telling us anything about the probability of a GMC version of the Trax, and a legion of questions would need to be answered before it could happen. How would a GMC version be priced to leave room for the $26,465 GMC Terrain but not eat into sales of the $20,995 Trax or the $24,035 Encore? Or would that matter? Could it primarily be considered to encourage a new faction of The Yukon Set at the compact end, GMC buyers being famously committed to the marque? And of course, would there be a Denali version? It'll probably be a long while before we have any kind of answers, but if you want to see it happen, the door to your campaign of persuasion is at least ajar.

Next-gen Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra may use carbon fiber

Thu, Dec 7 2017

It's been generally accepted that the next generation of full-size GM trucks will use some sort of strong, lightweight material for the beds while retaining steel for the cab. While aluminum seems like the most obvious choice, according to Automotive News, the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra will incorporate both aluminum and carbon fiber in their beds. The publication cites sources from within GM, though it seems the introduction of this comparatively exotic material mix is still a few years off. While carbon fiber is both stronger and lighter than steel and aluminum, it takes significantly more time and money to produce, essentially relegating the material to small-volume cars. The main benefit for trucks is the resulting reduction in weight to improve fuel economy without sacrificing the tough, rugged capabilities truck buyers expect. The Ford F-150 made the switch to aluminum for the 2015 model year and it's proved highly successful. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before the competition followed suit. Automotive News says that the next-gen trucks will launch with aluminum beds and that it will take a couple of years before we'll see any carbon fiber incorporated into the design. Even then, only look for the composite material on higher-trim models, with a trickle down to lower-spec trucks possible further in the future. In 2011, GM announced it was working with Japan-based Teijin Limited on a carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic. There's a good chance that material's introduction will be on trucks.
