Montgomery City, Missouri, United States

1979 Chevrolet K10 4x4, Shortbed, Original 400 V-8, Automatic Transmission, Painted Hot Rod Flat Black w/ All New Trim and Stainless Accents.    The engine had already had some improvements added on to it before I had purchased the truck.  An Edelbrock aluminum intake and Edelbrock carb had already been installed and we added a few small engine accessories such as the chrome valve covers and air cleaner. Complete fresh tune-up including cap, rotor, wires, plugs, fuel filter and pump.  The engine runs very strong and sounds  great.  Engine does not blow any smoke when it first starts up as many Chevrolet engines do.  The exhaust on the truck is true dual exhaust with turbo mufflers - NOT glasspacks.  I like a nice tone from my exhaust - Not loud redneck exhaust by no means.  I had my mechanic look over the entire drivetrain and he replaced all the front u-joints in the front axle, greased and packed all the front bearings, new brakes, and converted over to lock out hubs. Also just had a front end alignment done as well.  Truck is setting on 31x11.50 Super Swampers on 15x8 Original style Ralley Wheels.  This truck originally was an Arizona truck so the tuck never had any major rust issues to speak of. Body wise the truck has a new hood, hood springs, 1980's style doors, replacement cab corners, and pretty much the rest of the truck is the original sheet metal.   Body and paint was done in a professional body shop - Not is someones back yard.  Other goodies include New front grille, New head light bezels, New front bumper, New chrome door handles, New wheel opening mouldings, New aluminum bed caps, New aluminum tailgate protector, New windshield, New chrome wing vent handles, Aluminum tool box, and Custom hand painted pinstriping by MK John Studio just to mention a few.

As for the interior - Pretty much everything is fresh, new, or redone.  Dash has been upgraded to the newer style dash.  Pyle Am/FM Stereo w/ small box speakers mounted behind seat.  Door panels are also the newer style door panels. New headliner, Old school seat, New carpet kit, New seat belts, New chrome window cranks, New chrome interior door handles, Dome light functions as it should, and gauge package was reworked and all gauges now work as they should - Even the gas gauge works correctly (Which if you have ever owned an old Chevy this is amazing to see one actually work correctly).

Not really to much bad to say about this old truck other than the original air conditioning system had been removed before I got my hands on it and I did not mess with it so yes, it is still off the truck.  Otherwise, this old truck is pretty tight and rattle free.  Doors fit up good and it rides and drives good going down the road.  The truck just passed Missouri safety inspection meaning everything checked out good and tight with the suspension, all lights work as they should, and yes even the horn blows correctly.

I know I am forgetting to mention a ton of stuff as I have worked on this truck in my spare time for about the last year and a half or so.  Honestly I had no intentions of selling this truck but we are building a new home and some of my toys needs to go as we are already going over budget on the house so truck is going up for sale.  The truck is for sale locally as well as here on Ebay so I do reserve the right to end this auction at any time.  I was a collector car dealer about 10 years ago and we used to sell a ton of cars through Ebay so I have heard a lot of scams over the years so please do not even try with me.  My description is an honest description - Look at my feedback and bid with confidence.  My phone number is 573-220-5566 if you have any questions feel free to give me a call.  I can also help with shipping arrangements as I still have some connections with several different shipping companies around the United States as we used to ship cars all over the United States and overseas. A $1000.00 deposit will be expected within 3 days of auction end and the balance to be paid in full within 7 days of auctions end.  Vehicle will not be released until all funds have cleared.  Thanks.......

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 Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Ever 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.

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest

Tue, Jun 16 2015

There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures.
