Up for auction:  1977 Chevy half ton C-10 Custom Deluxe Short bed pickup truck.  2002 full frame-off restoration with only about 10,000 miles after restoration. I’m only letting it go because I’ve moved and now have no good place to keep it. I’d rather pass it on to someone that will care for it than have it sit outside. 

As you can tell I patterned my restoration after the 1969 Camaro pace car complete with the Orange racing stripes and Orange/Black Houndstooth vinyl interior inlay on the seat. I used mostly Chevy parts such as exhaust tips from a Chevelle.  If Chevy had made a hot rod/SS truck back in the day, I think this is what it would have looked like.

No rust at all and has NEVER seen road salt or snow. Always kept inside until April 12th 2014 when I moved. It has a mild built 350 four bolt main block, 30 over flat top pistons, Edelbrock performer intake with a Holley 750 carb on top. I put a 4 speed trans out of a 67 Camaro in it with a Hurst competition shifter. I built it to drive and enjoy so it has stock manifolds with 2 1/2 ” duel exhaust pipe and two 40 series Flowmasters. It has front power disc brakes, power steering and a 12 bolt rear end. I do have the shop manual, service manual, owner’s manual and a few extra parts that go with it. The truck is straight and clean, no accidents.

A few items to mention...
-It does have a crack in the dash (see pic).
-The paint is still great apart from some chips from driving (see pics).
-The speedometer works intermittently but I do have another to replace it.
-At times the ignition "clicks" rather then turns the starter over (lick a loose connection). I believe I have this resolved but want to note it.
-Other than that the truck starts right up, runs and sounds great! It rides and drives nicely. I’ll be glad to answer any questions.

This is my second attempt on eBay with this truck. This time with a NO RESERVE AUCTION. MUST SALE!! This is a serious auction, so bid with the intention of buying because all sales are final, but be comfortable with this truck before you bid. Test drives are welcome…you won’t be disappointed! Vehicle is sold as is. No warranties of any kind are expressed or implied. I reserve the right to end the bidding early as I am also selling outside of EBay.
The winning bidder must submit a $500.00 non refundable deposit within 48 hours of the close of the auction to secure the vehicle.
Buyer will be responsible for all shipping and transportation costs. Of course I will be happy to assist in any way I can. Don't let this one get away from you!

Buick Velite is a not-so-Volt-like plug-in hybrid concept for China

Mon, Nov 7 2016

Is the Buick Velite a Volt by any other name? That's a question worth asking after General Motors said that the Buick Velite concept vehicle will make its global debut at the Guangzhou Auto Show later this month. GM says the car "will provide a template for upcoming models being launched under the Buick Blue new energy vehicle strategy." Whether that means the Velite is a variant of the second-generation of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in is open to interpretation. Some automotive publications, including Autoweek, are saying that's the case, but GM China doesn't mention the Volt in its press release, only saying that the car is a "high-performance" plug-in hybrid vehicle. As we know, GM doesn't use the "PHEV" descriptor for the Volt, which makes us thing the Velite's powertrain is more like the Cadillac CT6 PHEV. Either way, the concept was developed by the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC), which is a joint venture between GM and Shanghai-based SAIC. As far as the name, GM has been shopping the Velite moniker around for a while now. The automaker first used Buick Velite for the convertible concept vehicle it showed off at the 2004 New York Auto Show. More recently, GM in 2014 filed to use the name for the US variant of its Opel Cascada four-seat convertible model, which debuted in 2013. As for the second-generation version of the Volt, that model appears to be gaining favor in the US. Domestic sales of the Volt through October have surged 64 percent from a year earlier to more than 18,500 units. The new version boosted its all-electric range by 40 percent to 53 miles while increasing its power output by 20 percent.

Meet the mother-daughter team that's worked on almost every Chevy Volt

Sun, May 11 2014

It's Mother's Day, and we're soft enough we love our mothers enough to share a new video from General Motors with you. In it, we meet Monique Watson (left) and Evetta Osbourne, a mother-daughter team that works at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly where GM makes the Chevy Volt (along with all of GM's other plug-in hybrids: the Opel Ampera, Holden Volt and Cadillac ELR). The two work side-by-side and have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on almost all of those vehicles - nearly 80,000 of them - since GM started making the pre-production Volts in 2009. In a prepared statement, Watson said that she likes working next to her mom, day in and day out, and they the two are totally in sync when it comes to putting the 400-pound, 16.5-kWh packs into the vehicle undersides. They two can also share stories throughout the day, and Watson said, "The arrangement has absolutely improved our relationship." Osborne started working at Detroit-Hamtramck in 1999, Watson since 2006. If you're driving a Volt today, you probably have them to thank for doing a bit of the work putting your car together. See a short video of them in action below. It's Always Mother's Day for Detroit-Hamtramck Duo Mother, daughter install lithium-ion battery pack in nearly all GM electric vehicles 2014-05-08 DETROIT – For Detroit resident Evetta Osborne, every day is Mother's Day. That's because she literally works side by side with her daughter, Monique Watson, at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. They have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on nearly every Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera, Holden Volt, and Cadillac ELR since production began. In fact, apart from vacation days and an occasional sick day, the mother-daughter duo has installed almost every battery pack since the Volt was in pre-production in 2009. The ELR launched earlier this year. All told – including Ampera – that's more than 80,000 electric vehicles. "We're a good team and our relationship is secondary when it comes to performing our jobs – but it's great to work alongside my daughter, said Osborne, a mother of five. Because the battery packs weigh more than 400 pounds each, automatic guided vehicles – robotic carts that use sensors to follow a path through the plant – deliver them just as the vehicle body structures glide into position overhead. The carts then lift the T-shaped packs, and Osborne and Watson guide them into the chassis and secure each one with 24 fasteners.

GM will make Chevy Volt production announcement tomorrow

Mon, Apr 7 2014

Thing are apparently happening to get the next-generation Chevy Volt ready for public consumption. The most obvious proof is in a preview of an announcement (possibly coming tomorrow) that the two main places where General Motors gets the Volt ready -the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant and the Brownstown Township battery assembly facility - will be getting big money upgrades and lots of new positions. The Hamtramck plant builds the Volt and its fancier cousin, the Cadillac ELR, as well as the global versions of the Volt. The Detroit News reports that GM will add 1,400 jobs and spend roughly $450 million at the two locations in order to build the redesigned Volt. What's less clear is exactly what the updates will bring us. We've heard that the new volt will be a 2016 model and come on a new chassis. Speculation in The Detroit News about tomorrow's announcement runs the gamut from a new compact PHEV with less electric range and a lower price (which makes sense) to an updated Volt with more electric range (heard it before) to a new all-electric vehicle (the moon shot). If there's any hints to be gleaned in the international Volts, there are also reports coming in that the Opel brand will get an all-electric vehicle that is cheaper than the Ampera. Read into that what you will. We pestered GM's Kevin Kelly on the new Volt (again) and he said (again) that he couldn't give out any more detail other than what's been reported. He just told AutoblogGreen that there will be an announcement tomorrow and that it will be about the Hamtramck and Brownstown facilities and involve the Volt. So, stay tuned.
