1965 Chevrolet K-10 4x4 Long bed Stepside Truck

61,592 ORIGINAL MILES ON TRUCK

Rare opportunity to own a piece of tough 4wd original all American steel. This unique Chevy pick up was originally built in 1965 at the Fremont, CA Chevrolet plant and was owned by the original owner for 40 years. I am the 3rd owner. Since purchasing this vehicle, it has undergone several upgrades and modifications. This truck features all original body panels, bumpers, engine, drivetrain, axles and other parts including interior and exterior.

The body of the truck is original steel with few rust spots as seen in photos. The original paint is light blue and under one coat of black primer as seen. There are very few dents or dings. The bed and tailgate are straight with no waves and undented. This longbed is cooler than any Fleet! The original wood is present but could be replaced if you decide to. The steel trim in the bed holding the wood down is straight and  in good condition. The hood and doors open and close smoothly, the body lines match up. The door locks are fully functional. Wing windows open and close. All glass is intact but the windshield has two very small chips, no cracks or bulleyes.  There appears to be a scratch on the passenger side from the wiper arm with a worn out blade.

The interior is all original except for the radio which was installed without cutting the dashboard. Everything works inside the truck, this includes all gauges, radio, horn, hazard lights, switches, all interior lights, brake lights, turn signals, headlights, tail lights and vents. The original steering wheel has no cracks and the turn signals still cancel. This truck still has the original seat and upholstery. It has never been reupholstered with very few blemishes and no tears. The original 4wd operation instruction stickers are in great shape and still attached to the roof between the sun visors. There is nothing missing. The windows roll up and down down very smoothly and completely. The gun rack was installed by the original owner. Upon purchase, you will also receive the original keys.

This original 230ci straight 6 cylinder engine with 61,592 original miles runs AMAZING. It always starts instantly on the first crank every day at any time. There is no smoke, no lifter noise or any other noises. It just simply runs phenomenal. This truck starts more smoothly and quickly than my personal Honda car. The engine is mated to the original 4 speed manual transmission and transfer case. Every gear shifts amazingly smooth. The clutch and throw out bear are in very great shape. There are NO issues with the engine or drive train. This truck has been driven at all altitudes from sea level to mountain peaks, up and down trails and fire roads. My family and I have never been left stranded with this truck. It simply runs awesome. All fluids have been replaced and maintained. This truck is a daily driver and regularly driven.

After I purchased the truck, these are the things I have done to the truck:

- 3" lift professionally installed.
- Custom fabricated front and back bumpers for strength and receive new winch. Customized bumpers are based off the original bumpers and have been powder coated black.
- Installed new Smittybilt wench to front bumper.
- Installed ultra bright front HID off road lighting and rear LED back up/off road lighting to bumpers. These are controls from within the cab with switches.
- Headlight and turn signal trim have been powder coated to match bumpers.
- Original steel grill is in excellent shape and powder coated army green.
- Original GM steel 15x8" wheels have also been powder coated army green.
- 2- 5 gallon Jerry cans and lockable mounts have been powder coated army green.
- New 33x12.5R15LT Cooper SST tires (less than 2500 miles on tires with even wear)
- Functional and authentic MX-6707 US Military antenna base with matching AS-1729 Antenna whip set and stow top. Stands approximately  13' 6" tall from ground. Installed for aesthetics, does not include radio. It is a highly noticeable great conversation starter. 

Lastly, take a peek at the custom monsterous 1-3/4" lug nuts. (That can still be removed with regular sized sockets)

WILL SELL TO INTERNATIONAL BUYERS. We can assist with shipping arrangements but buyer is completely responsible for shipping.


This truck includes ORIGINAL PROTECTO PLATE AND KEYS!

2016 Chevy Colorado grabs Motor Trend Truck of the Year award

Tue, Nov 17 2015

It's not an easy feat to win Motor Trend Truck of the Year twice in a row, but the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado managed to do just that. Thanks to the introduction of the 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder diesel, the magazine decided to bring the pickup back to defend the title. In more good news for the Bowtie brand, the 2016 Camaro earned the magazine's Car of the Year award. The Colorado beat a tough group of finalists to earn the nod this year, including its GMC Canyon sibling. The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra also made this year's list. The Nissan Titan XD and latest Toyota Tacoma rounded out the challengers. A model had to shine in six criteria to earn the title: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. Like it did with the Camaro, Motor Trend posted a story online that explained the rationale for picking the Colorado again. They praised the diesel profusely and lauded the whole platform as quite a capable hauler. This year's Motor Trend SUV of the Year honor went to the Volvo XC90. The Swedish 'ute had to win against an initial group of 16 candidates that the magazine eventually whittled down to finalists that consisted of the Honda Pilot, Lincoln MKX, the combined Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class and GLE Coupe, and Nissan Murano. "Seven-passenger people movers aren't supposed to drive like this," senior features editor Jonny Lieberman said about the Volvo in the announcement of the champions. The Honda CR-V won last year. In the explanation online, the judges applauded the XC90's new modular platform, and they loved both the T6 twin-charged engine and T8 hybrid version. The SUV's key enamored the writers, too.

Leak reveals GM's 2017 heavy duty diesel trucks to get 910 lb-ft of torque [UPDATE]

Tue, Sep 27 2016

UPDATE: Chevrolet officially announced specs for the 2017 Silverado HD and the rumors were true. The truck's new Duramax 6.6-liter turbo-diesel V8 puts out 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque. Chevrolet says the new motor produces 19 percent more torque and 12 percent more horsepower, while producing 35 percent fewer emissions. Overall, the new engine is a big improvement over the current motor, which generates 397 horsepower and 765 pound-feet of torque. According to Truck Trend, GM's newest heavy duty pickup trucks will pick up quite a bit more power and torque. The publication spotted a recent GM Powertrain ordering catalog that had the engine specs for the 2017 model year and managed to get some screenshots before the catalog was taken down, and they can be viewed here. The screenshots revealed that the 6.6-liter turbodiesel V8 powering the Silverado and Sierra heavy duty models will boast 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque. This is a substantial gain over the current models' 397 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque, and as Truck Trend points out, it exceeds the Ford Super Duty line's horsepower output of 440, but comes short of the 925 lb-ft rating. Truck Trend credits part of this output gain to the new intake system GM will introduce on the 2017 heavy duties. The intake gets 60 percent of its air from a scoop on the hood, with the other 40 percent coming from behind one of the front fenders. GM doesn't reveal horsepower figures in the press release about the scoop, but it does say the cooler air helps with maintaining the engine's output, and that the scoop does produce a ram-air affect, providing more air at speed. As we know, more air plus more fuel equals more power, but there's likely more to the power increase in this engine than only the intake.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
