Grass Valley, California, United States
FACTORY K10 SHORT BED 4X4 Please read this entire add before bidding as I believe the add with the pictures will answer most questions. I will go over the good and the bad and tell you everything I know about this truck. Body: The body on this truck is straight and overall solid with some rust bubbling in the lower doors and the lower fender extensions, some small spots above the drip rails and a small spot on the drivers inside rocker panel. The rust is not horrible or rotted out. The passenger side rocker panel was replaced. The floor boards appear to be solid. The bottom of the doors look nice. The trim, chrome on the truck is nice, front bumper and grill surrounds are nice. Paint: As you can see the truck is black in color and shines nicely. This is driver quality paint, it has some checking in spots along with chips and blemishes that have been brush touched. The paint looks good from 10 feet away and would be fine for a daily driver but in my opinion needs to be redone. Running Gear: The truck has the original running gear as far as I can tell to include the closed knuckle front end with power drum brakes. I do not know what gear ratio it has. The frame has a weld on the passenger side (See Pic), I have no idea why its there, however its a very nice clean weld. The truck has a late model gm power steering box that was fitted to the original frame and reinforced with plate steel. Engine and Transmission: The engine is a 454 BBC with a mild cam, the motor sounds great with a mild lope to it, runs nice with good power. The transmission is a turbo 350 that shifts nicely with no slipping, controlled by an aftermarket floor shifter. I do not know the mileage on either the transmission or the engine. Interior: The interior is in nice shape, however needs a dash pad and the visors could use some attention and it could use a carpet kit. The bench seat is in good shape as well. It has a tach dash cluster that works, cd player. All glass is in very nice condition. Overall: This is a great looking, rare short bed K10 4x4 with a 454 that drives down the road nice. This truck gets Lots of attention, nearly every time I drive it someone asks me about it or complements it. I have listed everything I know about the vehicle, the good with the bad so please take time to look at the pictures and judge for yourself. I encourage anyone serious about the truck to come look at it or have someone look at it prior to bidding. I'm listing this truck for a friend who took it on trade for a Porsche he had and has since decided he wants to go in a different direction. The truck is currently registered in CA and has a clear title in my buddies name. Please contact me with any questions you may have, if I can answer them I will or if you would like to speak the owner I can make arrangements for that to happen. This truck will be sold as is, where is. If shipping is required I will do whatever I can to assist, however the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs.

Mark Reuss: GM can't afford product 'misses,' has 'thought about' CT6 V-Series
Thu, Apr 9 2015Mark Reuss is a busy man. He oversees General Motors' global product portfolio, an all-encompassing task for a company that sold more than 9.9 million cars and trucks last year. When GM launches a well-received product, like the road-going rocket ship that is the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 – he gets credit. When the company stumbles with the slow-selling Chevy Malibu or grapples with fallout from the decade-old Saturn Ion and its flawed ignition switch, he gets blamed. GM owners, the press and sometimes the federal government, demand answers. Bob Lutz famously held the job before Reuss. So did Mary Barra, who's now GM's chief executive. There's a New GM, but the lineage is connected to a long history. When he's not thinking product, Reuss, an executive vice president, also runs the purchasing and supply chain for the company, which is still one of the largest industrial empires in the world. We caught up with Reuss on the floor of the New York Auto Show, where GM had just rolled out two crucial new products: the 2016 Cadillac CT6 and the 2016 Chevrolet Malibu. Speaking with a small group of reporters, Reuss delved into a variety of subjects, including the new Malibu, Cadillac's future (he thinks the ATS-V is going to "flame the M3 and M4"), and other topics. On fixing the Malibu: "We can't miss. We can't have those kinds of misses [like the previous generation] on our cars and crossovers and trucks. We can't do that. If we do that, we give a reason for someone to go buy something else. It's that simple. "On a car like the Malibu we have a chance to really fix all of that, which we have, and then lead. Then you've got a real opportunity there. So that's what we've really been focused on here – to fix those things." He later added: "We need that car here to transform Chevrolet desperately because it's the heart of the market. And when you think of Chevrolet, people will come back and think about what we did with the [new] Malibu and the Cruze... It's hugely important to us." On Cadillac: "If we go out and try and out-German the Germans, it's probably not going to work. We've got an opportunity here generationally where there's a lot of people younger than me that have parents that drove BMWs and Mercedes, and I think there's an opportunity there for those people to drive something different than what their parents did, and I think that's always been an opportunity in the auto industry if you look at the history of it.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
