 1972 C10 Pickup, 350 V8, 3 speed automatic transmission. Runs, drives, stops with no problems.  I bought this off ebay from a guy in Colorado Feb 2010, had it shipped to Michigan, and drove it around for about 9 months, put about 2K miles on it.  Everything on the truck worked very well, no problems.  I took it off the road and started the body work in early 2011.  All side molding were removed and the holes were welded, painted the frame, replaced all of the cab mounts.  The floors and rockers were all replaced with LMC panels.  The cab is nearly ready for paint, box sides still need work.  Box front panel and tailgate are both new LMC parts.  We removed the original gas tank and seat, but still have them, along with the original seat belts.  The original gas port on the side of the cab has been welded closed.  We also have cloth seats from a 2001 Chevy Silverado, which have integral seat belts in them, the drivers seats does have a few small holes in the fabric that require repair.  We have the original lights that were on the truck when purchased, along with all new front, tail and side lights from LMC, minus the headlights, those are original.  The LMC lights are still in their boxes, not installed. We have the LMC Suburban gas tank and the gas tank straps, we were planning to move the gas port to the wheel well, but never started the install.  The old gas lines still run into the cab, and a temporary gas tank allows it to be run.   The windows have all be junked, and the only windows that come with this truck are the side wings, no other glass included.  We junked the grill that was in this truck, it was in poor condition, so there is no grill included.  We do have a new LMC steel front bumper, not chromed.  The tires on the truck are great shop tires, they have held air throughout 2 years of sitting in the garage.  They have some tread remaining, but would obviously need to be replaced for a driver.  The muffler and tail pipe were junk, so they were cut off and scraped.  The exhaust manifolds to crossover are still on the truck and they are solid.  The pictures show all of the parts that I have for this truck, the original door panels and handles are all there.  New control/idler arms included, not installed.  I have most of my LMC receipts available for the buyer.  The photos of the body in primer/filler are the current status for this truck.  There are two photos of this truck in blue paint, on trailer - this is the condition of the truck when I bought it in 2010.

This is listed as a project, no warranty or guarantees of any kind.  I've done my best to describe it, and you can contact me to review before bidding.  This is an auction only, and high bid on ebay wins it.  No low ballers, and no international bidders, and no bidders with less that 5 positive ebay transactions or I'll just cancel your bid.  What you see in the photos is everything that you get - I do not guarantee anything on the truck is running perfect at this time, it's been in a state of tear down and build up for about 2 years, so don't expect to go for a drive down the highway with this truck.  Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, I will not ship it.

$200 deposit due within 48 hours of the end of the auction.  Pickup and full payment, cash only, due within 2 weeks of the end of the auction.

Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine

Tue, Oct 28 2014

As General Motors gets ready to unveil the new Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January, it's starting to reveal a few more details about the updated plug-in hybrid. Today should be fruitful on that front, thanks to an event GM is hosting today that focuses on the new Volt, and we've just had the first bit of new: a bigger engine is coming. Since the beginning, the Volt has used a 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine as a range extender when the battery runs dry. The second-generation model will instead get a slightly larger 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will be built in Flint, MI. That's a step up from the various engines that have been a part of the 2016 Volt's rumored mills, everything from a 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter turbo. The confirmation about the new 1.5-liter powerplant was found in Automotive News, where we also heard again that GM is going to start building the new Volt's electric drive unit in Detroit, moving production up from Mexico. We will have more information on the 2016 Chevy Volt later today.

Chevy Volt 'acceptable,' Nissan Leaf 'poor' in new IIHS safety tests

Thu, Jul 31 2014

Ford C-Max Hybrid also scored "acceptable" rating. With US Nissan Leaf sales up almost 30 percent during the first half of the year, the only thing that might be able to stop the battery-electric vehicle is a good, stiff barrier. Unfortunately, thing's aren't always pretty when that happens in the real world, according to new tests from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Things with the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in are a little bit rosier, though. The two plug-in vehicles were part of a batch of a dozen vehicles that just went through the IIHS's "small overlap" test, in which the driver's side front corner of the vehicle is crashed into a rigid barrier at 40 miles per hour. Out of the dozen, only the Mini Cooper Countryman was given a "good" rating. Five vehicles, including the Volt and the Ford C-Max Hybrid, were rated "acceptable," two were "marginal" and two, including the Leaf, were "poor." Plug-in vehicles are unique in the crash-test context because of their relatively large battery sizes. In the Volt's case, the driver had a "low risk" of injury, said the IIHS. But the Leaf's crash substantially pushed back the instrument panel and steering column, creating a scenario where the driver was "likely" to sustain leg injuries. The batteries in both the Leaf and the Volt passed safety tests specifically targeted at things like thermo and electrical properties and overall integrity. "Nissan is proud of the Leaf's 'Good' rating in all other IIHS tests, a 4-star NCAP rating from NHTSA and its IIHS Top Safety Pick rating in all previous years since the car's release," the company said in an e-mail sent to AutoblogGreen. "As for the performance of the 2014 Leaf in the 'small overlap frontal test,' Nissan will continue to review these and other results from the IIHS 'small overlap frontal test' as we seek opportunities for improvement." Check out the IIHS's press release and small car crash-test video footage below. Range of ratings: Small car ratings run the gamut in challenging small overlap front test The Mini Cooper Countryman is the only small car to earn a good rating among the latest group of 12 cars subjected to the Institute's small overlap front crash test. Two electric models and a hybrid also are in the mix, with varied results. The electric-powered Chevrolet Volt (with a gasoline engine "range extender") earns an acceptable rating, while its battery-electric rival, the Nissan Leaf, earns a poor rating.

GM re-recalls 11k SUVs

Tue, Oct 13 2015

General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.
