Selling my 1971 Chevy Custom 10. 1/2 ton. 


I purchased it from the original owner and I have known this truck all of my life. I have the original owners books and paperwork from when it was purchased new. 


Truck is original paint and patina. Nothing hidden with bondo. 


Truck has its factory 350 V8, 4bbl., power steering, disc brakes, automatic transmission and A/C. The A/C compressor will need work to have cold air.


Truck has factory mild tinted glass too and the glass is perfect. 


Truck has 101,000 original miles but Indiana exempted the milage on the title due to age. 


New front tires and new rear (old school) Power King mud grips.


Truck runs STRONG, shifts and drives out nicely. No smoke or issues with the drivetrain. I have been using it as a daily driver. Quardajet carb is a bit cold natured like they always are. Truck had been sitting since 1988 when I bought it.


I have replaced the belts, hoses, starter, radiator, rear brake shoes, front calipers and brakes, front brake hoses, plugs, wires, cap and rotor, battery, every bulb on and in the truck and much more. EVERYTHING works! All lights inside and out and gauges (speedo, odometer, ammeter, oil pressure and temp) work. Fuel gauge has a new sending unit in tank but it reads 1/2 when full for some reason. When on empty it still has 1/2 tank. Not sure what is up with it. May be a ground issue. Heat will run you out in seconds!!! Wipers work. This is a very cool truck and a reliable truck to drive daily. Truck has rust like they all do. Nothing extreme or out of the ordinary. New rocker panels had been welded in at some point and look pretty good. FRAME, TRAILING ARMS AND 95% OF THE FLOORS ARE SOLID. Inside of the bed is rusted pretty bad, cab supports are rusted out and the area above them on the floor is effected as well, drivers cab corner is bad too but that is about it. Will run 60-70mph on the interstate all day long.


I enjoy driving it just the way it is.


Serious calls only please. I am an honest person and would love to insure you are happy with this truck. (812)631-9244 I have included 24 pics and a video to help describe the truck. If you are local you are welcome and encouraged to come and inspect the truck in person. Truck is obviously sold "As Is" and "Where Is" but I will work with you and your shipper if you need me to load it up. No problem.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.

GM veteran Bryan Nesbitt tapped to head Buick design

Sat, Jun 6 2015

General Motors styling veteran Bryan Nesbitt (pictured above) took over a new role on Monday as executive director of global Buick design and global architectures. Andrew Smith, who previously did that job and also coordinated the look for Cadillac, has remained in charge of the pen at Caddy with this shift. Nesbitt rose to prominence when he designed the Chrysler PT Cruiser, according to Automotive News. He joined GM in 2001 and has been there ever since in multiple high-level roles. In 2007, he was appointed vice president of design for North America and was later briefly general manager of Cadillac in 2009-2010. Nesbitt took over as the vice president of GM's international operations design in China in 2011. This shuffle also moves Ken Parkinson, currently styling boss for Chevrolet trucks, to China as design vice president there. In addition, John Cafaro becomes the person in charge of the look for Chevy globally, rather than previously splitting that role between cars and trucks with Parkinson. GM Global Design Leadership Changes – effective June 1, 2015. Bryan Nesbitt, Design Vice President, GM China will repatriate to North America and assume the position of Executive Director, Global Buick and Global Architectures. He will be located in Warren, MI. Bryan will be the design Champion for Buick in the US and China. Ken Parkinson, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Trucks and Global Architecture will assume the position of Design Vice President, GM China. He will be based in Shanghai, China. Andrew Smith, Executive Director, Global Cadillac and Buick Design will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Cadillac. He will continue to be the design Champion for the Cadillac brand. In addition, he will continue to lead the Global Color & Trim team. He will be based in Warren, Michigan. John Cafaro, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Cars will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Chevrolet. He will be the design Champion for Chevrolet. In addition, John will lead the exterior components and accessories team. He will continue to be based in Warren, MI. The roles and responsibilities of Helen Emsley, Mark Adams, Carlos Barba, Clay Dean, Michael Simcoe, and Teckla Rhoades remain the same.

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
