Up for auction is this Stunning '66 C10 Custom SWB. Just finished a complete nut & bolt restoration. Every panel, part, piece, nut, & bolt have been painted, refurbished, or replaced. This is pretty much a Brand New Truck! I love the body lines & style the mid 60's had & this truck does not disappoint.

     I wanted to build a classic cruiser that took us back to a simpler time. I think now days we are always in such a hurry & so used to technology making things easier?  I think we need to just slow down & enjoy the beautiful things in life. So I went with a body & style that is rarely seen. Instead of a chromed out motor & a glossy paint ( that's been done for a half century) I wanted a flat outside, glossy inside, & there is not a single piece of chrome on this truck. I almost nicknamed it Anti-Chrome. Even though I kept this project Super Clean & Super Simple, I still did some modern up grades like Power Disc Brakes, Alternator, & Seat Belts!


    One thing I had to do was install a complete Independently Adjustable Air Ride Suspension. This thing rides like a Cadillac & drives like a Dream! Also added a wireless remote control so when you pull up some where & get out, you don't have to crawl out of it, because its setting on the ground. Instead you can pull up at normal ride height get out & as your walking away you hit the button & she drops to the ground!


   This Beauty is coated with GM's color Flame Red. I could have saved time by painting the whole truck a solid color inside & out, but I'm a perfectionist & not known for taking the easy way out. There is actually 4 different colors on this truck. The inside interior is a Gloss Black with just the right amount of Red accents. Everything except for the sheet metal & few things I wanted to keep original is new. Below I will try & list most of everything I can think of that's been done.

Brand new suspension. New Ball Joints, Tie Rods, Pitman Arm, Idler Arm, Spindles, Shocks, Even the steering Rag Joint.

Complete Air Ride Suspension. 8, 1/2 Quick Air Valves, Twin Air Compressors, Cab Mounted Pressure Gauge, 5 Gallon Air Tank, 4, 2500lbs Bags & a Dual 7 Switch Controller with a Wireless Remote.

Power Disc Brake Conversion. New Rotors, Calipers, Pads, Drums, Lines, Shoes, Master Cylinder, Brake Booster, Fluid, & Bearings.

Engine is a Newer Vortec 5.7L V8 with a Performance Camshaft, New Gasket set, Belts, Hoses, Clamps, Plugs, Wires, Cap, Rotor, Rebuilt Edlebrock Carb, Alternator, & Serviced With Mobil One Full Synthetic Motor Oil.

Transmission is a GM TH350, B&M Shifter, New Module, Output Shaft Seal, Gasket, & Filter.

Putting all this power down to the pavement is a Heavy Duty GM 12 Bolt Rear End with a 4:11 Gear Ratio. For Shoes it has 4 Brand New 265/75r15 Tires.

Cooling is a Harrison Radiator & Thermostatically Controlled Electric Fan.

Interior Has New Seat Belts, Some New Gauges, Mostly New Wiring, New Blower Motor, Some New Switches, New Loop Style Molded Carpet, New Windshield, Tinted Windows, & Completely New Weatherstripping Throughout. Including the Vent Window's Weatherstripping.

     The Rear Frame was Boxed & Bridged with over the Axle Air Ride So that if anyone wanted to pull something, the truck could handle the weight. I did not want to put a bed floor in & cover this work of art permanently, So Instead I used a Black Max Vinyl Bed cover that really gives the truck a nice touch.

       There has been tons & tons of hours of body work in this Beauty. This was a 50 year old work truck that didn't have such an easy life, but as far as I know it has been a Southern truck its whole life & was practically rust free! There is still some minor imperfections, but I cant stand a Ridiculously Over Priced Trailer Queen! This is a truck built to be Driven, Enjoyed, & most importantly Affordable!


     I have receipts for everything done to this beauty. Also have pics from start to finish.

    I have a Clear Blue TX Title in hand & feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or to set an appointment to come see this work of art in person.

MotorWeek's 80's GM muscle coupe roundup includes Regal GN and Monte Carlo SS

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Even with just four brands in the family, General Motors still represents a performance powerhouse. Between the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Camaro Z/28, Cadillac CTS-V and ATS-V, The General can still deliver plenty of thrills. The 1980s, though, saw the brand go even crazier with performance. While the Camaro and Corvette were still around back in the day, GM had a number of other interesting performance offerings. The Bowtie was complemented by the long-deceased Monte Carlo SS, while the now-defunct Pontiac and Oldsmobile offered the Grand Prix and thumping 442, respectively. And Buick, which isn't short on performance with its Regal GS and Verano Turbo, offered a much more serious vehicle, in the form of the Grand National (not to mention the Darth Vader-spec GNX). MotorWeek, in its hugely entertaining retro flashbacks, looks back on these three long-lost GM performance icons, and it's just as good as you might expect.

So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?

Thu, Jan 21 2016

You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai
