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. |

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
