1962 Chevy C-10 Fleetside Shortbox Pickup. on 2040-cars
Paris, Michigan, United States
|
This is a 1962 Chev Short box fleet side pickup I brought back from down south. This has seen no salty winters. The truck has been sitting for a while but I ran gas from a can and electric fuel pump to it and it runs good but needs a oil change desperately as I have not been able to get back to it after I put a quart of trans fluid in it to clean the inside of the motor before the oil change I was going to do and never did. So it will no doubt smoke some when it is started up. Never ran it long so while the motor has no knocks in it there is still the top end tappet noise you get till it has run for a while and gets oil in everything. so what I am trying to say is because I have not driven the truck I can not warranty the motor and the brakes are not leaking but need to be bled. The body mounts are good and the floors are in good shape as it is from the south but the truck has dings and dents as it is a 1962 and has some but not a lot of thru rust as I just had it professionally sand blasted and primed with 2k primer. The roof is the only thing left to be blasted other then the inside floors. I am selling this as a project from the south for someone to do over the winter. I did not hide any fillers before priming. I even dropped the rear chrome bumper down to show the rear quarters better. There is like new 60s on the back. The inside has rip in seat and is very dirty and dusty and the dash gauge plastic needs to be replaced with the right one. The windshield and drivers side window glass needs to be replaced. These 62 chev shortbox trucks are getting harder to find and more expensive when done when they are solid on the underside like this one. Feel free to ask any questions as I want the winner to be satisfied. Delivery is available to some locations so Please just ask first to get a price and make sure you are in our delivery areas. On Sep-16-14 at 09:28:31 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot I have the drivers side window but need a week to go down and pick it up for the high bidder after the auction. it is in my other truck in the south but is included in the auction. Also I am going to sandblast the step sills and the floors and prime them before pick up for the high bidder. Less to do is good. Have a Great Day! |

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
The best Super Bowl car commercials from the last 5 years
Wed, Jan 28 2015If you've been dipping into the Autoblog feed over the past days and weeks, you wouldn't even have to be a sports fan to know the Super Bowl is coming up. Automakers have been teasing their spots for the big game, dropping them days early, fully-formed onto the Internet and otherwise trying to amp up the multi-million-dollar outlays that they've made for air time on the biggest advertising day of the year. And, we're into it. The lead up to the Super Bowl is almost akin to a mini auto show around these parts; with automakers being amongst the most prolific advertisers on these special Sundays. The crop of ads from 2015 looks as strong as ever, but we thought we'd take a quick look back at some of our favorite spots from the last five years. Take a look at our picks – created from a very informal polling of Autoblog editors and presented in no particular order – and then tell us about your recent faves, in Comments. Chrysler, Imported From Detroit Chrysler, Eminem and a lingering pan shot of "The Fist" – it doesn't get much more Motown than 2011's Imported From Detroit. With the weight of our staffers hailing from in and around The D, it's no wonder that our memories still favor this epic Super Bowl commercial (even though the car it was shilling was crap). Imported really set the tone for later Chrysler ads, too, repeated the formula: celebrity endorsement + dramatic copy + dash of jingoism = pulled car-guy heartstrings. Mercedes-Benz, Soul teaser with Kate Upton One of our favorite Super Bowl commercials (and yours, based on the insane number of views you logged) didn't even technically air during the game. Mercedes-Benz teased its eventual spot Soul with 90-seconds worth of Kate Upton threatening to do her best Joy Harmon impression. (Teaser indeed.) It doesn't win points for cleverness, use of music, acting, or any compelling carness, but it proved that Mercedes' advertisers knew how to make a splash in the Internet Age. And, hey, it's still classier than every GoDaddy commercial. Kia, A Dream Car. For Real Life Like the Mercedes video above, the initial draw here is a pretty lady; in this case the always stunning Adriana Lima. But this Kia commercial really delivers the extra effort we expect while scarfing crabby snacks and homemades, too. First of all, Motley Crue. Second, a cowboy on a bucking rhino. Enjoy yet again.
Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
