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.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.
GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.
