Okay guys and gals here is the one everybody wants. Up for auction is a 1971 Chevrolet C-10 two wheel drive shortbed fleetside pickup. This truck was sold brand new here in North Carolina and has always been right here in North Carolina. 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. 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 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.
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. Thanks for viewing my auction!

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
