1969 Chevrolet C10 Pickup Base 4.1l on 2040-cars
Graham, North Carolina, United States
Condition: I bought this truck 2 years ago with intent to fully restore while using. Previous owner did the same thing so the truck has had excellent maintenance and upkeep. Maintenance since 2008: New muffler, new tailpipe, new rear transmission seal, new (both) front brake hoses, new (both) front wheel brakes, new upper and lower ball joints, new front coil springs, new front and rear KYB shocks, 4 wheel alignment, 4 new Dayton Timberline tires (31 by 10.5 LT15), new brake master cylinder, new heavy duty radiator, new starter, new clutch kit/ring gear, new pressure plate and throw out bearing, resurfaced flywheel, replaced rear gear oil, new drive shaft u-joints and yoke, balanced drive shaft, factory seat recovered (factory beige), new plugs/points/condenser, set dwell and timing, adjusted carburator, new fuel pump, new fuel filter, new valve cover, new valve cover gasket, replaced all valve stem seals, new lifter cover gasket,new driver's door window regulator, new distributor gasket, new oil pan gasket, new front and rear crankshaft seals, new engine mounts, new oil pressure switch, new breather element, new heavy duty battery (10/27/11). The truck is in excellent mechanical condition and is driven locally about once per month. It's always garaged and never driven in the elements. It has factory paint with some spray touchup on left side and white cab top (not immediately noticeable). No damage history. All factory chrome. It has minor surface rust in the bed and top rails of bed. Passenger side rocker panel (under door) has some paint bubling and one rust hole 1cm dia. Serious restorer will want to replace the entire rocker panel. All glass is good (no cracks), factory windshield has some fogging around left/lower/right periphery. Horn does not work. When I back out of my garage there are usually 0-4 dime size drops of dried fluid (oil?) on the floor but otherwise no oil leakage/usage. On full cold heater still puts out a little heat. Passenger side window regulator works but is stiff and could use replacing. All lights, gages, clusters, vents, wipers, etc work just fine. I've tried to list here everything that should be considered, and if I've not mentioned it, then it works. It also has a factory heavy duty rear bumper with a lockable spare tire jackscrew for raising/lowering. I'm including the aluminum bed tool box. It has 66,137 original miles. History: Based on previous owner's info, I believe I'm the 5th or 6th owner. I bought it from a private seller in Chattanooga, TN May 2012 and drove it home 4 hours on I-40 at 65-70 mph (13 mpg). He bought it from a friend site unseen and had it shipped to TN from Wyoming or Idaho in 2008. It was originally sold by Scott Chevrolet, Oklahoma City, OK on 8/25/1969. I have the original New Vehicle Warranty and Owner Protection Plan card and dealer plate imprint. I have the original 1969 Owner's Manual that came with the truck (excellent condition), along with the plastic sleeve it came in. I also have all maintenance records for maintenance I've listed. Great truck. Pleasure to drive. Features: It does not have a radio...never did. Manual steering, No a/c. It comes with a cab-mounted fire extinguisher, spare tire, hydraulic bottle jack, and the pictured aluminum bed tool box. Shipping: Buyer responsible for and to pay all shipping costs. |

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years
Fri, Feb 21 2014Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
