This 84 Chevy C10 has everything. The truck started as an everyday California truck a few years ago, but was tore down to the frame and built backup. The paint has its share of nicks and dings here and there but almost everything on the truck is new.

Started with a blank frame stripped it down and had an 8” step notch welded in the back and notches in the front cut out for a mustang II rack and pinion. Then coated the frame in POR-15 to prevent any rust (not like we’ll see much rain in CA). Once complete assembly began with the following parts

Porterbuilt V2 Dropmember with LSX engine mounts (Power coated silver)

Ridetech tubular upper and lower control arms (painted silver)

Ridetech airbags front and rear

Porterbuilt front sway bar

Belltech drop spindles

KP Components Cantilever 6 link (Power coated silver)

KP Components Watts link (Power coated silver)

Brothers Truck rear 19 gallon fuel cell

Brand new fuel and brake lines ran from master cylinder to each wheel.

The old 305 engine was removed and replaced with a 2006 5.3 w/ 4l60e transmission. The engine was pulled from a wrecked Tahoe with 60k miles on it. A basic tune has been installed, new plugs, MSD wires etc and it runs great! Lokar shift rods adapt the dash shifter to the 4l60e. Steel braided trans lines running from the trans to the cooler.

Since it lays frame when laid out the heater and AC systems were removed and a blocking plate installed on the firewall. To clean up the engine bay and prevent all the road grime from landing on the underside of the hood and engine bay Slosh Tubs fiberglass wheel wells were installed.

It rides on new Boss 330 20x8.5 wheels and tires

Optima battery provides tons of power for the compressors, stereo, engine and accessories; sits under the bed in a drop down battery box.

Interior  -

In the interior, the dash was covered in black leather with red stitching, all the AC/heater vents shaved in the process. New carpet was installed, the headliner is covered in grey suede.

Door panels are from Rod Doors covered in black leather and grey suede accents. Door locks were removed and AVS door popper kit installed. The AVS kit is very nice, no need for 10lb door poppers, fairly quiet when hitting the switches.

Dakota Digital VHX red carbon fiber gauges were installed in the dash and wired up. Ridetech E2 digital gauges monitor the pressure of all 4 air bags with 3 presets.

A Sony stereo with Rockford Fosgate amp and 2x 10” Rockford Fosgate subs make the system sound great! Custom kick panels house 2x 6.5” mids and 2” tweeters.

 

Bed –

The bed floor was raised 4” new wheel wells installed. Rear Stake holes, rear tailgate skinned and shaved everything coated in bedliner.

2xViair 440 compressors, 8 gallon tank and an Accuair Vu2, Ridetech pressure sensors are mounted in the bed on a custom mount and covered by the fiberglass Snugtop Tonneau.

Exterior –

Handles were shaved, led turn signals up front and rear led tail lights and new lenses. Billet front grill painted front bumper and rear roll pan. New window felts and wind wing rubbers, One Piece Products flush mount rear window.

I don’t really drive this now and looking to sell this to make room for another project. Lost more parts installed, just can’t remember. I have receipts for most everything installed (over 20k), has been fun building, but time to move on. Buyer is responsible for picking up the truck. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

GM cutting vehicle trim options to save money for electrification

Sun, Mar 1 2020

Information continues to filter out about GM's plans based on comments the automaker made during its Capital Markets Day event in February. GM President Mark Reuss said the company's push to save money by rationalizing the number of build combinations will continue in 2020, carrying on the work done in 2019. As GM Authority covers, last year, the carmaker cut 3,500 components across model lines, a 12% drop in the number of parts it needed to stock in its plants. Reuss used the next-generation Chevolet Equinox and GMC Terrain as examples for more cost efficiencies, saying build possibilities — which include international markets and their options — will be cut by more than 50%, and use more shared parts. "We will reduce total trim levels on Equinox and Terrain from eight to six," Reuss said, "reduce engine variants from 11 to 5, reduce build combinations from more than 200 to less than 100 per program, and see significant cost savings of an already paid-for architecture that took the mass out, helping us self-fund electrification programs." GM will plow a large amount of the money it saves into its ambitious EV program. In 2017, the automaker said it intends to have 20 electric vehicles on the market by the end of 2023, some of which could be shared between brands. An automotive analyst at Seeking Alpha and a piece in Automobile attempted to put specifics to what we should expect. As Automobile points out, the first two EVs in the 20-car program are already on sale, being the Ariv Meld and Ariv Merge eBikes available in Belgium and The Netherlands. We've seen the Cruise Origin autonomous rideshare taxi, although we don't know when it will hit the road. The next three, which we should see in the metal shortly, are two Cadillac EVs and the GMC Hummer EV pickup. The Cadillac pair are expected to be sized like the XT4 and XT5, and along with the Hummer, should hit the market starting in late 2021.

2019 Toyota Avalon vs. full-size sedans: How they compare on paper

Mon, Apr 23 2018

Full-size sedans aren't exactly in great demand at the moment, and at least one of the vehicles in this comparison has been rumored to be on the endangered species list. Yet, we've just had our first drive in the 2019 Toyota Avalon, and if anything has a chance of rejuvenating the segment a bit, it's an all-new version of what has long been the segment's benchmark. To see how the new Avalon compares, we've put together the below spreadsheet featuring the Avalon's primary apples-to-apples rivals, the Buick LaCrosse and Chevy Impala. We also included the Nissan Maxima, which is comparable in price, sales and non-luxury badge, and which offers the sort of increased driver engagement promised by the new Avalon XSE and Touring trim levels. We also included the outgoing Avalon for reference as well as that car's luxury cousin, the Lexus ES, which can definitely be cross-shopped with the luxuriously trimmed Avalon Limited. You can use our Compare Cars tool to create your own comparison, such as one featuring the rear-wheel-drive Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger or even Kia Stinger. Alright, enough chit chat. On to the spreadsheet. Performance and fuel economy The GM sedans may come standard with four cylinders, including a mild hybrid system in the LaCrosse, but puh-lease. The V6 is the name of the game in this segment, with outputs now surpassing the 300-horsepower mark. The LaCrosse is the horsepower and torque champ, though it also weighs a bit more than the new 2019 Avalon, so acceleration is likely to be comparable. The Impala weighs a lot more and has only a six-speed automatic, so despite having a wee bit more power, one should expect it to be pokier (not a good sign for a car rumored to be on the chopping block). One would expect the Maxima's 300 hp and lowest curb weight to result in the quickest acceleration, but then it's also strapped to a CVT, which despite being better than ever, is still a CVT. Things get worse for Chevy when you consider the Impala's base four-cylinder gets the same 25 mpg combined as the Avalon's V6 — once again a segment best. Now, should you really prioritize fuel economy, the 2019 Toyota Avalon Hybrid really stands out with a 43 mpg rating (or 44 with the base XLE trim) that bests the outgoing Avalon Hybrid. Honestly, after driving this new Hybrid, it actually seems like it would be the best bet for most buyers. There's sufficient power, and it only costs $1,000 more than the comparable V6 version.

Opel CEO talks new EV, will likely be fresh face for Chevy, too

Wed, Jul 23 2014

The rumored demise of the Opel Ampera has been confirmed, but there's good news, too. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann has been busy Tweeting information about the brand's next plug-in vehicle, admitting that the Ampera is on the way out but that plug-in vehicles are here to stay. His Tweets, in full, read: After the eventual run-out of the current generation Ampera, we'll introduce a successor product in the electric vehicle segment. Our next electric vehicle will be part of our massive product offensive – with 27 new vehicles in the 2014-2018 time frame. We see eMobility as important part of the mobility of tomorrow and we will continue to drive down costs & deliver affordability. As we learned earlier this week, the Ampera will not be refreshed when the current Chevy Volt is updated, most likely because of slow sales. Opel sold just 332 Amperas in the first five months of 2014. For now, General Motors is still building Amperas in Michigan for export to Europe. So, what might this new EV mean for the General Motors plug-in fleet? Official spokespeople are being quiet, but we think it's safe to say the new EV Neumann is talking about is not simply a rebadged Chevy Spark EV. This is the first official word about an entirely new EV, and we expect it will come to both the Chevrolet and Opel brands.
