Okay guys and gals here is the one everybody wants. I will fix the pictures as soon as I figure it out. Sorry for the being upside down Up for auction is a 1971 Chevrolet C-10 two wheel drive shortbed fleetside pickup. This truck was sold brand new in North Carolina and has always been right here in the Carolinas. This C-10 has NEVER been used as a truck and the bed sides and bed floor have virtually no dents and never has seen any rust. In fact you will only find some minor surface rust here and there. Infact, if buffed up the paint looks pretty good. The worst spot is under the rear glass on the left side but it is minor! The cab above the windshield is rust free! I challenge you to find a better C-10 that has not been restored. She was originally built with five bolt wheels, power disc brakes and power steering. The suspension is still the way GM built her. She has not been lowered or modified in any way. In fact she has trailering equipment although I have never pulled anything with her but she could no doubt. This C-10 shortbed also has a very nice snap fit cover over the bed which was installed on an aluminum frame with no holes in the bed. This C-10 has a rebuilt 454 residing between the fenders. She has an upgraded camshaft with some work done on the heads. She doesn't leak a drop of oil . She also has a 750 double pumper Holley on an aluminum intake. There is a lot of horsepower and torque available but she is calm enough in traffic you might never notice till you pushed the accelerator down. The transmission was also rebuilt at the same time the engine was installed. A shift kit makes the transmission shift a bit more firmly. It is the original transmission to the truck. Now for all you numbers matching guys I still have the original 350 engine and will include it in this sale as long as the truck meets my reserve. Yes there is a reserve. I know what I have here. If the truck does not meet my reserve I will install air conditioning and keep her and that is fine with me. But if you are looking for a good, rust free, southern truck with all the right options then this might be your ticket. I urge people local to me to come by and check her out but no tire kickers or thrill seekers. She is fast and I want her to stay in one piece so your time with her will be limited. This is one serious, kick butt truck that never fails to put a smile on my face every time I drive her. You could not help but be happy buying this one. I am so confident in that statement that if you do not like the truck after you come to pick her up I will gladly refund everything but the deposit but remember the truck is sold as-is. Once you or your transporter leaves she is yours. I will send plenty more pictures if desire Now as far as the auction goes, I will not reveal my reserve price nor will I end the auction early so don't ask. Also if you have less than a +5 feedback I WILL delete your bid unless you email me first. I know you have to start somewhere and I can work with you but please email me first. I ask for a $500 nonrefundable deposit within 48 hours after the end of the auction. Buyer is responsible for all transportation but I am available most anytime. If you have any questions please call Don at (864) 706-7990. Thanks for viewing my auction!

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
