'70 C10 Chevy Step Side Truck: ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine was kept stock as I wanted it to be practical and dependable for everyday anywhere driving. There is not a peck or tick whatsoever in the engine compartment. Truck starts, idles and runs perfectly. - Fresh 350 4 bolt main engine w/ 350 turbo automatic tranny…truck runs 80-85mph on the interstate with no problem whatsoever - Weiand intake -Coated headers w/ Flowmasters (40 series) -New plugs/wires/oil change...everything in drive train has been recently serviced and is ready to go -Trans cooler installed -3 core radiator upgrade…this truck can idle in the desert for days and not run hot -16-18mpg on average EXTERIOR: The sheet metal of this truck is in excellent shape(perfectly straight)….it only has normal wear that adds to the overall character of a patina vehicle. There is a small ding in the crease of the front right fender(see pics/video)…easy to fix if you want to “slick” the truck. All the suspension/steering components of this truck were rebuilt/replaced. -Suspension is a 4/6 complete drop kit from Early Classic Enterprise that includes drop spindles, springs, KYB GR2 shocks w/ relocators, super track bar….this kit provides for a killer stance with awesome ride without any shake or vibration at any speed -5 lug with New 20” Boss 8.5 front & back wheels w/ Michelin tires....this truck was built to drive so I went with the same size wheels and tires so they could be rotated properly. -Power Steering & Power Disc Brakes up front with New front calipers/rotors/pads/rear drums and shoes -Note that this truck has the ‘73-’87 front end suspension & brake upgrade -Front end professionally lined -New bearing carrier -Early Classic hidden hitch with adjustable air shocks in the rear for towing/hauling -Note that this truck has the ‘73-’87 front end suspension & brake upgrade -Sway bar with new Moog bushings -Cab mounts are in excellent shape -Cab corners/rockers/kick panels /all the notorious places for rust on these trucks are in great shape -GM Bahama blue base coat/ clear coat…..beautiful color! -Floor of the bed is showing its age, but again it just adds to the nostalgic appeal of the truck -I have tons of undercarriage pics that I can text...just let me know -The doors shut as good as a new Chevy truck -Note that the Shop Logo is superficial to the clear coat, and with a little lacquer thinner, can be removed in about 5 mins. INTERIOR: It would be extremely difficult to make the interior of one of these trucks any nicer and maintain the original integrity. -Cab has been insulated with sound mat/jute -New floor mat -Original style AM/FM radio with cd/iPod/mp3 upgrade & new speaker - All glass and cab seals are in great shape -New 3 point(shoulder) seat belts from Brothers …also installed a middle lap belt -New Houndstooth seat cover -New gas tank with sending unit -All glass is in perfect shape -Windows work great and wing glass opens perfectly -All gauges work properly NEEDS: -Currently has a small trans leak where speedo cable attaches
Check out the video of this truck on YouTube at Overall, this is a beautiful truck that is extremely nice and super clean with a lot of character and personality. The truck is a shop/patina truck as is, but the sheet metal/body on the truck is in such great shape it is ready to block sand and paint if you want a traditional show truck. There is one small ding in the crease of the front passenger fender(see pic./video) and the front bed petition has a slight bend…these quirks add to the overall appearance of the patina style, but if you want to “slick” the truck, they will need to be addressed. If you like the shop/patina style trucks, this one is super nice. It was not just thrown and pieced together, and if you see it, you will realize the attention to detail that was taken with this truck. This truck was built to drive with no excuses, and I have described it to the best of my knowledge. If you have detailed questions about anything with respect to the truck, please do not hesitate to ask. I understand that it is difficult to buy a truck by looking at pics miles away, but please understand that I have sold through ebay going on 14 years now and have never received a single negative feedback. I am not trying to hide anything with this truck and encourage anyone interested to come look. Most vehicles look better in pics than in person.....and trust me, I having driven countless hours with only regret and dissappointment at the end of the venture.... but I promise you will not get that experience with the vehicles/items I sell. I guarantee the truck looks better in person than in the pics. I am not trying to hide anything on this truck and encourage anyone interested in a C10 to come look. You are more than welcome to send a 3rd party inspector to assess the truck and make sure it is describe accurately. If need be, I will do my best with assisting with shipping of the truck, but the buyer is responsible for setup and all expenses. If you have any questions or want other pics, please don’t hesitate to ask. Serious inquires only! Payment in cash, wire transfer, or cashier’s check from bank(check will need to be verified before truck is released). Clean/Clear title in my name with matching numbers on the original door tag and glove box….. Email, call 606-598-9953 evenings after 5pm, or the best way to reach me is via text at 606-813-2045 ANYTIME. If interested, don't be afraid to make an offer.....all I can say is "NO"...Please check out my '66 C10 Step Side truck listed in another auction......I also have a sweet '71 C10 Cheyenne Super that is a cool driver as is or is perfect for a winter project restore...if interested, let me know....Thanks!

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes
Thu, Feb 5 2015General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.

Chevy Volt sales drop in June, Nissan Leaf inches upwards
Tue, Jul 1 2014Different month, same story. That's the gist of the monthly US sales numbers from the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf. These were the first two mass-market plug-in vehicles to go on sale in the US and we've been comparing their sales numbers for what seems like ages now. So far, the 2014 tale of the tape shows the all-electric once again trumping the plug-in hybrid. The last time the Volt outsold the Leaf was in October 2013. Chevrolet sold 1,777 Volts in June. That was good enough to be the Volt's best sales month of the year, but it's down 34 percent from the 2,698 units sold in June 2013. In fact, it's on par with the 1,760 Volts sold in June 2012. Given the steady sales, General Motors might need to push up the release of the next-gen Volt to gin up excitement, especially if it also offers some of the things that current Volt drivers say they want improved: more range, a lower price and a fifth seat. GM also said it sold 85 Spark EVs in June, an increase of 215 percent over June 2013 Nissan sold 2,347 Leafs last month. The good news continues for Nissan, which says it sold 2,347 Leafs last month. That's an increase of 5.5 percent over 2013 numbers and makes 2014 the best June ever for Leaf sales. Let's credit Texas. Toby Perry, Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, said in a statement that, "Since the Texas state incentive went into effect in May, we've seen a big jump in Leaf sales in the Austin, Dallas and Houston markets. Our dealers are telling us that they saw more traffic in their stores, and they had their best Leaf sales performance in the last weekend in June." Even with that increase, Atlanta remains the top Leaf market. Nissan has sold 12,736 Leafs in the US so far this year; Chevy 8,615 Volts. Our detailed monthly sales write-up of green cars in the US, including plug-in vehicles, hybrids and diesel cars, is coming soon. For now, we invite you to discuss these numbers in the Comments.
