1971 Chevrolet C-10 Cheyenne Short Bed Pick-Up Truck, one of the finest in existence that hasn't been restored. It was ordered with great Options like Cheyenne Sport Truck Package, Factory Cold A/C, Soft Ray Tinted Glass, Power Steering, Disc Brakes, Gauge Package,Dealer installed AM/FM Radio (1st year available), 350 4bbl. 250hp, 12 Bolt Rear End with 3:08 gears, best colors Factory Hugger Orange/White 2 Tone Paint, Black Delux Interior with Houndstooth Seat, Sliding Rear Window, Rear Cargo Lamp, This Time Capsule was always in the hands of an Older Man who kept it garaged and never modified it with the exception of installing a 4 Speed Overdrive R700 Transmission and a Sun Super Tach. The Dealer installed Rally Wheels with Original Trim Rings look new with no scrapes or dings, the paint is unreal for its age and has No Rust, original window felts, great glass with no scratches, mint interior, non smoker etc.... Must be seen in person to appreciate... The engine is the correct TBC code and appears to have never been removed from the truck, it still has the stove pipe, stock choke which works great you never touch the gas pedal just turn the key and it fires hot or cold as when new and not modified. So hard to find a C-10 that has not been touched.. Most of the pick-ups were 8 ft. beds in 1971 as there primary function was to be a work truck, 6 ft. beds are rare and to find a stock one is really rare because they rather modify a short bed than a long bed.... This truck never even had a trailer hitch on it!! Bed is in awesome shape with very few scratches that are only noticeable really close-up. I just installed new AC Delco Factory Shocks and it rides awesome. The engine runs like it was new and can idle in 90 degree South Florida weather and not get hot with the A/C on. The truck runs at just 1800RPM @ 70 mph on the highway with the R700 Transmission and it cannot be detected under 50 mph, it shifts just like the Turbo 400 it replaced with no annoying shifts into overdrive.. Totally Dialed-in!! Great on Fuel, Good Power, Perfect Package! I recently took this to a car show where it won 1st place and drew a lot of attention because of its Originality and MINT Stock Condition. These trucks are taking off in value in this stock mint condition and this is a rare opportunity to own a Classic that can be driven and enjoyed with total reliability as long as you don't mind answering questions every time you stop! This truck brings everybody back to the early 70's which was a great time... Again it has to be seen and driven in person, pictures do it no justice. Has a Clean Florida Title in my name. I may be reached at 954-234-RACE for any other questions or to set up an appointment to see this awesome Chevy!! All information believed to be true and accurate with no guarantees or warranties implied. Thanks for lookin!!

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]
Sun, 03 Feb 2013The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
Recharge Wrap-up: EV torque secrets, UC Davis maps future of biofuels
Fri, Jul 25 2014A UC Davis white paper maps out "Three Routes Forward for Biofuels," balancing investment risk with carbon benefits. The first option is "incremental," in which we tinker with the existing biofuel manufacturing infrastructure for small improvements over time. The "transitional" plan suggests integrating cellulosic production and other innovations with existing operations. The third route, called "leapfrogging," would mean building refineries based on new technology such as cellulosic and algae-based biofuels. The paper suggests ways the US could use these three routes together in different areas, and predicts the payoffs in terms of carbon emissions could be significant if the right people are willing to risk the capital. After all, financial advisers are always telling investors to diversify their portfolios to manage risk and rewards in the same way. Read more over at the UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies. The Formula E Long Beach ePrix will offer free admission. The seventh round of the inaugural all-electric race season, which was moved from Los Angeles to the streets of Long Beach, will offer fans free grandstand and general admission. The race, which takes place on April 5, 2015, will use a 1.6-mile portion of IndyCar's Grand Prix of Long Beach. Read more at LA Times. Polaris is now offering its 2015 GEM electric vehicles, including the new street-legal eM1400 LSV. The passenger and utility vehicles come in two- to six-passenger configurations, many of which are street legal on roads with posted speed limits of up to 35 miles per hour. The eM1400 LSV utility vehicle seats two, offers 1,250 pounds of payload, 1,250 pounds of towing capacity, a top speed of 25 mph and a range of up to 45 miles. Its on-board charger plugs into any standard 110-volt outlet. Read more at Hybrid Cars and check out all the different configurations yourself at the Polaris website. In EVs, more torque does not always equal faster. Green Car Reports found this out when driving the Fiat 500e (with 147 pound-feet) against the similarly weighted Chevrolet Spark EV (with 400 pound-feet). The secret is, at least in part, in the gearing. The Fiat has a 9.6:1 reduction gear, making it quicker at lower speeds despite having far less available torque, while the Chevy uses a 3:1 ratio. The trade-off though, is in top speed. Furthermore, Chevy electronically limits the torque delivery at low speeds, as 400 pound-feet is a lot of launch for the little Spark EV to handle.
Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace
Fri, Oct 16 2015General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.
