I had to list it as a C-10 because ebay does not give a C-20 option.  

Let's keep this as short as possible:

If you are looking for a resto-modified, lowered, lifted, color-changed, leathered-up, blinged-out pick-up with 24" chrome wheels and a stereo more powerful than the engine........... this is NOT your truck.

But if you are searching for a mostly original, unaltered, unabused, classic Chevy C-20, than you are looking at the right pick-up.

What we have here is an honest 1972 C-20 with a factory big block and WORKING factory A/C. 
It originated in dry Eastern Washington and was used to haul around a pick-up Camper. That's the reason why it is equipped with front stabilizer, rear suspension leaf springs, heavy duty front shocks and camper mirrors. It also has two extra tanks on each side of the truck bed.

It is medium olive metallic with a white top. It was repainted many years ago and the paint still shows very nicely.
There is absolutely no rust on this truck and the rocker panels, cab corners and the truck bed are in excellent condition.
I added the brackets for a DrawTite 5th wheel hitch, but I never used it. The complete hitch assembly comes with the truck.

The interior is olive cloth and it was reupholstered with the original material about a year ago. It is like new again.

The dash has one very small crack (about 1 cm long).

The original green rubber floor shows some wear on the driver side.

The right door panel seems to be a darker green (instead of the olive green) and shows some scuffs.

There are a couple of small dents on the right door where the mirror is attached.

A tachometer was added to the steering column and it works.

The orig. AM radio is completely intact and plays fine.

A/C was just completely rebuilt, using the orig. housing of the compressor, and refilled with R12. It is freezing cold.

Since I collect mainly European classic cars, my in-depth knowledge about classic Chevrolets is unfortunately not great. 

What I can tell you though, the power and the sound of this monster is unbelievable.
It has hooker headers, a "mild" cam and flowmasters.  It is the perfect "sleeper" truck.
It looks like the engine was rebuilt, since it runs absolutely flawlessly.
The Turbo 400 transmission also works perfectly.

This truck needs nothing and has no issues.  I would not hesitate to drive it across country if the cost of fuel was not a factor. LOL.
It has a clear Washington title in my name with 1972 YOM (year of manufacture) plates  which can stay with the truck.
It is smog exempt in California and most, if not all, other states.

Buttomline, it is 41 years old, has aged gracefully and brings a smile to your face every time you drive it.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.

GM expected to debut two new crossovers at Detroit Auto Show

Thu, Dec 15 2016

Next month, General Motors is expected to debut two new crossovers at the North American International Auto Show. That's according to Automotive News and The Wall Street Journal, which reports that the successors to the aging Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Terrain will finally make their debut. The two crossovers have been on sale since 2009 and 2010 respectively and are due for updates as the competition has newer models on the market. Both crossovers play in growing market segments where sales success is crucial for the respective brands. GM, and the automotive industry as a whole, has been shifting its focus towards crossovers in the last few years. The Traverse and the Terrain are some of the oldest SUVs on the market and are in dire need of an update. GMC's Acadia, the former corporate clone to the Traverse (and Buick Acadia), switched to a new platform in 2016. And the Terrain's platform-mate, the Chevrolet Equinox, was revealed a few months ago. Both the new Chevy and GMC models are expected to go on sale late in 2017 as 2018 models. Look for a follow up to the Traverse's sister, the Buick Enclave, to make an appearance soon.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
