82 Chevy C-10 Short Bed Box Rust Free Original 1982 C10 Great Street Rod Lowmile on 2040-cars
Clarksville, Iowa, United States
Ok, I will try and not ramble. I just want to pretend as if I'm the buyer looking for the information to help me best make a decision on the purchase price. I purchased this truck because it was rust free other than a spot behind the rear passenger wheel that is minor and very common on these trucks. This truck came from Arkansas for it's entire life until 2012. The frame is not pitted and the floor and all other body parts are rust free. This is an exceptional find in the midwest! It has a very sound 350 with a mild cam and a 4 barrel carb. The engine is responsive and will chirp the tires when shifting from 1st to 2nd because of the shift kit in the th350 transmission. The brakes work great. The truck starts and runs like it should. The exhaust doesn't leak even with headers. The exhaust tips are ugly, other than that the dual exhaust is good. The rear end is quiet. I believe it has 3:08 gears which would be good for mileage. I don't have a clue what it gets for mileage. The pictures tell the rest of the picture.
This truck was going to be a street rod project. I am including with the sale of this truck some parts that cost me over $1,000 dollars to purchase. I have a lowering kit that includes the drop spindles for the front, the rear lowering shocks, and the new spring perches for the axle flip. This would drop the truck about 6" with a coil cut in the front springs. Nothing else would need to be purchased to finish this job. The front shocks are like new and are not changed when lowering with the lowering spindles. I am also including a 2" cowl hood!! This hood was over $400 and is painted black. I also am including a complete $250 full set of window felt and door seals, weather stripping etc. I also purchased some very nice seats from a 92 chevy that fit really well in this square body truck. The truck has brand new Goodyear Eagle ST tires with the nubs still on them! I am also including two spares with good rally wheels. I am going to miss this truck and will kick myself when I go to try and replace it someday. It is really hard to find a rust free truck like this in the midwest. I bought a new Jeep and don't have space for both this and the Jeep. This truck is ready to drive wherever you want, or start stripping it down and get ready for paint or your street rod drag truck project. It is a great candidate for whatever you are looking to do. The frame and underside is in such great condition, it will be easy to work on or modify. I also have but am not including, a fully built Dana 44 posi rear end that is set up for this truck. It is ready to bolt right in. It came out of another 82 short box that was run down the local track a couple passes, and then was swapped out for a daily driver rear end. I would sell this for the right price and help you load it up in the truck when you pick this up. I also have a th400 tranny that is good that I would part with. I also have for the right offer, a very solid 406 sbc and a four core radiator. The 406 has a .480 Isky cam with solid lifters. It has some head work done to it and comes with new intake, carb, headers, and valve covers. Let me know if you areinterested in any of these. Maybe we can work out a deal. Maybe not. Please call me with any questions. My number is 319-231-8974. Thanks for looking. I priced this truck according to trucks that are similar that HAVE SOLD on Ebay, not based on what people are asking. It is a low mile truck that has a ton of potential. On May-21-14 at 04:31:56 PDT, seller added the following information: The Dana 44 that I am selling has 4.10 posi gears in it. I have the title in hand. Please feel free to call or text me with any questions as well. I am not advertising this truck locally at this point. It will sell right here on Ebay. I will work with any shipping company you choose to use. Have a great day! On May-21-14 at 04:36:51 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to mention that the air cleaner in the picture is one that i had on another car. I put this on to tune the carb for easy access. It does need a new filter....this one is really ugly, like someone sat on it ugly. |

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
GMC Envoy could be returning as GM files for 'Envoy' trademark
Thu, Dec 27 2018The GMC Envoy could be on its way back, if a recent GM trademark filing is any indication of the future. To be exact, GM's trademark filing is for the name "Envoy," and is applicable to "motor vehicles, namely, sport utility vehicles, engines therefor and structural parts thereof." A victim of the recession and high gas prices, the original Envoy – related to the Blazer, and more recently the TrailBlazer and similar GM SUVs – was discontinued after the 2009 model year. In today's SUV-happy market of low gas prices, unearthing the somewhat familiar Envoy name makes a certain amount of sense. As soon as gas prices start trending in the other direction, we'll all be saying the opposite, though. What this SUV will take shape as is the big question now. With the Chevrolet Blazer well and truly on its way, there's every reason for a GMC version of Chevy's stylish new crossover sporting the Envoy name. Another, less likely, possibility is a Traverse-sized vehicle to slot between the shorter Acadia (10 inches shorter than the Chevy Traverse) and the body-on-frame Yukon. GM could come out of left field and make the Envoy a Buick too. It fits the bill with the "En" beginning, and Buick undoubtedly has crossovers in the works. We think that's even more unlikely, but it's important to remember that we're still in the speculation phase. Soon we'll drive Chevy's new Blazer, and perhaps have more news then. Check in next week for that. Related video:
Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
