1971 Chevrolet 1/2 ton longbed C10 2WD truck from the dry Central CA valley, Bakersfield.
This truck must go because I offically now have too much going on.
January 11 - Preemie twin boys were born 5 weeks early and stayed in the ICU for a week
January 31 - Threw a rod in my 1970 C10 project truck, now need to replace the 350.
February 4 - My father was admitted for issues with his heart, will have open heart surgery next week.
I have absolutely no time to spend on this 1971 C10. I looked long and hard for a clean and all original Cheyenne. If I were to hold onto this truck, it does need a couple of small things. Driver's glass needs to have the track glued on and installed. Glass is good, but is wedged in the track with a piece of fuel line. Original owner was a little creative on the wiring. Instead of using the key, there is now a butterfly switch with a push button start. Lights and turn signals do not work, but speedo, temp, and oil pressure do work. If the truck sits for a few days it does drip 4 or 5 times some automatic transmission fluid. Exhaust is shorter glasspacks, a little on the louder side. Emergency brake cable is not currently connected.
Tires are absolutely brand new. Maybe 500 miles on them. 235/75/15 all the way around, 15x7's in the front with 15x8's in the rear. Original Camaro COPO dogdish center caps. It has the original GM radio, with a CB mount on the dash. CB in the glovebox. Also has the original brake controller under the dash.
Rare truck to find in this condition, from the original owner. I don't need the cash, just have way too much going on. So if this doesn't sell for what I think it's worth, I'll store it until I can complete the '70.
Please call or text me at 925 979.8161 with individual picture requests.
If you need this shipped, please create a move auction on USHIP. Free to sign up, and you'd be surprised how affordable shipping rates are. I had this transported from Bakersfield to Walnut Creek, CA 94596 for $280.
THIS TRUCK IS BEING SOLD AS IS, NO WARRANTY IMPLIED.
On Feb-10-13 at 16:40:08 PST, seller added the following information:
*2/10 EDIT - it looks like the passenger rocker will need some attention. Not from the inside of the cab, but the bottom of the outside. There are 4 or 5 holes, about the size of a pencil. Also, the previous owner pulled the A/C guts out and plugged it at the line at the box on the firewall.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.
Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia
Sun, 03 Feb 2013It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.
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.
