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!

GM exploring ways to raise half-ton Duramax diesel tow rating

Sun, Nov 3 2019

Lots of truck owners cheered when GM announced fuel economy numbers for the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado with the 3.0-liter Duramax diesel inline-six. Even after Ram let loose its EPA mileage ratings for the 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel, the Chevy oil-burner still took the trophy. The victory was years in the making, GM engineers spending an entire four-year development cycle refining the LM2 Duramax to increase mileage. The tradeoff, as well all know by now, is towing; the Duramax in half-ton duty pulls a maximum 9,300 pounds in the Silverado. Rivals across town can do more, the Ford F-150 PowerStroke rated at 11,500, the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel game to pull 12,560. GM engineer John Barta told Muscle Cars & Trucks that more hauling chops could be on the way, explaining, "We’re actually looking at upgrading some of the materials around (the engine bay) to see if we can maybe raise our tow rating." Engine bay materials are at issue due to thermal complexities underhood. John Barta, GM's assistant chief engineer of diesel engine controls, said the Duramax's inline-six configuration allowed engineers to get emissions hardware like the combined selective catalytic reduction, diesel oxidation catalysts, and diesel particulate filter unit closer to the engine, where it heats up quicker, getting emissions down quicker. But that filter puts another heat source in those confines, enforcing a cap on the tow rating to keep the engine and other systems from overheating. "If you look under the hood," he said, "youÂ’ll see a significant amount of silver ‘moon tapeÂ’ around to make sure things arenÂ’t getting overheatedÂ… if we were to go up in higher towing, which we can, we start impacting the possibility of deteriorating some of the components.” There isn't much space for more grille, so swapping for a better grade of "moon tape" or a different kind of material could reduce engine bay heat, extracting a higher tow rating in the process.  It's important to note a point Barta's been making for months about the Duramax figures, though. "Even though itÂ’s nice to brag about big numbers, in reality, light duty customers are not towing that large with their trucks," and, "We do know that (95 percent) of our light duty customers donÂ’t tow over 9,000 pounds." On our First Drive of the 2020 Silverado diesel we called out the tow rating, but emphasized that the Chevy and GMC have more important challenges to overcome.
