1965 Chevy C-10 Fleetside Lwb W/ Ac, Ps, Pb And Rare Pullman Camper on 2040-cars
Orlando, Florida, United States
See it in action!
Looking for vintage, super cool and something no one else has? Offered for sale is a 1965 Chevy C-10 Fleetside LWB. V-8, 3-speed, power steering, power brakes, air conditioning with an original Pullman Camper. For Sale locally, so I reserve the right to end this auction early. This truck came from a collection in Oregon that was mainly ford vehicles with this chevy as an exception. The collection was bought by someone in Florida. He kept most of the fords and sold me the chevy. The truck was built in the Fremont California plant and what information I was able to track was that it was titled in California, Washington and Oregon. The odometer is showing 36k. I found a log book with entries in the high 90?s, from not all that long ago, so that would put it at 136k miles. I was told it had two owners before the collector bought it. This truck has a very unique camper built by Downey Sheet Metal Shop (California). The company made these campers in the 50?s and 60?s. I was told this camper has been with this truck since new. It has a 1964 serial number, on the camper, so that coincides. The camper is intact and everything works. It has the original canvas that is in excellent condition. The (double) roof slides back for shade and weather protection and none to three panels can be easily added. It does not have the original mattress or curtains as they all hit the dumpster immediately after I got it home. I ordered a new mattress and material and the bride made a mattress cover, pillow cover, sheet and matching curtains. The only thing else we did to the camper was makeup and replace the missing trim around the bed compartment doors and replace the shore power connection. The truck ran and drove great and solid ? tight and no rattles. It has a newer GM target (crate) 350 engine but had no other toys so we added the ps, pb and a/c here at our shop in Kissimmee. The a/c also incorporates a heater and defroster. The truck had original upholstery that was still all there but cracked in places so we reupholstered the seat. It has two additional fuel tanks mounted under the bed with a switching valve next to the driver. This was a repaint and it looks good. I had to spot in a couple places where it was ?keyed? on the left door and quarter. The outside mirrors were rusted and replaced. The only thing that does not work is the original radio. I replaced the speaker but the radio just crackles. I haven?t done anything with this as I assume a new owner will want something different. I have a local shop here that can repair the radio if you want original. This thing runs, steers, stops, and drives great. You will not be disappointed ? and it attracts a lot of attention. I have used this twice at dirt bike races in Florida, in the summer, and slept in the camper without needing any more than the side and back windows opened ? although I had a fan ready just in case. I have the tailgate ? I have no idea if it is the original one - I was told it was. It is straight as an arrow. Selling price is $14,900. I don?t think there is another truck quite like this available. If someone wanted the truck without the camper I would also consider that. Thanks for looking.

Recharge Wrap-up: EVs poll well in Portland, Tesla seeks office space
Tue, Aug 5 2014In a poll of drivers in Portland, more than 80 percent said they would be driving an EV in the next 10 years if they weren't already. The poll was small and not scientific, with just 218 votes cast, but it does reflect a slice of a certain population with changing attitudes toward electric mobility, and 80 percent is an impressive figure. Additionally, 43 percent of respondents planned to have an EV in the next five years, and only 18 percent said they prefer gasoline-powered vehicles. With EVs in many ways repeating the adoption process that hybrids went through a decade ago, the five- or ten-year timeframe for more widespread use seems only natural. Read more at the Portland Business Journal. San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee parks like an idiot, or rather, his security detail does. His Chevrolet Volt has been ticketed for parking six times since he took office. Granted, those street-sweeping signs are tough to keep track of, but his car has been photographed blocking at a bus stop while grabbing a burrito (who hasn't sinned in the name of a delicious burrito?), and was even caught parked in a crosswalk. The tickets were all dismissed. Read more from the SF Gate. Tesla is looking for office space in Silicon Valley. As the electric car company continues to search for a place to build its $4- to $5-billion battery Gigafactory, it also needs some real estate to expand its operations near its Palo Alto home. Tesla has expanded from 3,000 to 6,000 California-based employees since the end of 2012, and plans to add 500 more by the end of the year. It is currently looking for 200,000 to 300,000 square feet of office space close to its Fremont factory, according to sources in the real estate industry.

Chevy Spark EV could be coming to Midwest later this year
Tue, Jun 10 2014Ohio is not known as a hotbed of EV sales – if anything, the state is a bit anti-EV, thanks to a legislative fight against Tesla's direct sales model – but it might be on Chevrolet's short list to expand the market for the Spark EV in the near future. The latest official GM press release on the battery-powered Spark still says the car is "available exclusively in California and Oregon," but Hybrid Cars found four Ohio dealerships that list a Spark EV on their websites, with hints the the car will be coming to the Midwest state by the end of the summer. See, for example, here, here, here and here. But that's probably not going to happen, according to Randy Fox, GM communication's manager for passenger cars. Fox told AutoblogGreen that, "At this point in time, we don't have any official plans to expand the Spark EV beyond California and Oregon." The reason is that California and Oregon have the infrastructure to support EVs, Fox said, and GM wants to be able to support its EV customers. "We are continuing to look at other options," he said. "The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure" – John O'Dell John O'Dell, a senior editor at Edmunds.com, told AutoblogGreen that, "It makes sense for [GM] to expand sales and it makes sense to do it in a quiet manner, to get these vehicles on the road. The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure. If someone in my neighborhood has one and he likes it, then maybe I can trust him. So it's important to get these vehicles on the road." Chevy sold 182 Spark EVs last month, a significant increase over the 98 sold in April. That's still small potatoes compared to the 3,000+ Nissan Leaf EVs sold last month, but making the electric Spark available in Ohio, say, or GM's home state of Michigan could boost those numbers. AutoblogGreen called a few dealerships in Michigan to see what they had heard. One salesman said he didn't think GM had started production yet but the inventory manager for another dealership said the Spark EV is scheduled to arrive in the Midwest in "roughly the fourth quarter." What would GM's incentive be to offer the car in markets outside of California where it can gain ZEV credits with each sale?
