1971 Chevy Custom C10 Pick Up. 350 Wa/c 2nd Owner Patina, Shop Truck Or Rat Rod. on 2040-cars
Bristow, Indiana, United States
|
I purchased it from the original owner and I have known this truck all of my life. I have the original owners books and paperwork from when it was purchased new. Truck is original paint and patina. Nothing hidden with bondo. Truck has its factory 350 V8, 4bbl.(factory Quadrajet), power steering, disc brakes, automatic transmission and A/C. The A/C compressor will need work to have cold air. Truck has factory mild tinted glass too and the glass is perfect. Truck has 101,000 original miles but Indiana exempted the milage on the title due to age. New front tires and new rear (old school) Power King mud grips. Truck runs STRONG, shifts and drives out nicely. Lots of power. No smoke or issues with the drivetrain. I have been using it as a daily driver. Quardajet carb is cold natured like they always are. One bump of the pedal and it fires right up but takes a little while to warm up. Truck had been sitting since 1988 when I bought it. I have replaced the belts, hoses, starter, radiator, rear brake shoes, front calipers and brakes, front brake hoses, plugs, wires, cap and rotor, battery, every bulb on and in the truck and much more. EVERYTHING works! All lights inside and out and gauges (speedo, odometer, ammeter, oil pressure and temp) work. Fuel gauge has a new sending unit in tank but it reads 1/2 when full for some reason. When on empty it still has 1/2 tank. Not sure what is up with it. May be a ground issue. Heat will run you out in seconds!!! Wipers work. This is a very cool truck and a reliable truck to drive daily. Truck has rust like they all do. Nothing extreme or out of the ordinary. New rocker panels had been welded in at some point and look pretty good. FRAME, TRAILING ARMS AND 95% OF THE FLOORS ARE SOLID. Inside of the bed is rusted pretty bad, cab supports are rusted out and the area above them on the floor is effected as well, drivers cab corner is bad too but that is about it. Will run 60-70mph on the interstate all day long. I enjoy driving it just the way it is. Heck, they don't make 'em like this anymore. Funny how people respond to this truck everywhere I drive it. Battle scars and all, they still love it. Serious calls only please. I am an honest person and would love to insure you are happy with this truck. (812)631-9244 I have included 24 pics. If you are local you are welcome and encouraged to come and inspect the truck in person. Truck is obviously sold "As Is" and "Where Is" but I will work with you and your shipper if you need me to load it up. No problem. |

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
GM recalls 83,572 SUVs for ignition switch issue
Sun, Jan 4 2015General Motors is recalling 83,572 SUVs from the 2011 and 2012 model years over a potential ignition lock actuator issue. In affected vehicles, the actuator isn't the right size, which could cause the ignition to get stuck in the "Start" position, and then either due to a jarring event or a "cool interior temperature" the ignition could switch back to the "Accessory" position. Doing so would cause a loss of power assistance and the airbags might not deploy. This is a different ignition issue than the one that's been ongoing for the past year. GM said it expects that less than 500 vehicles suffer from the problem, but that the pool could include vehicles from 2007 through to 2014 that have already been fixed, but with defective parts. The 2011-2012 SUVs included in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notice: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado HD, Silverado LD, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra LD, Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles. GM will notify owners and dealers will inspect the ignition lock housing to see if it needs a free replacement. RECALL Subject : Ignition Lock Actuator may Bind Report Receipt Date: DEC 30, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V827000 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado HD, Silverado LD, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra LD, Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the ignition lock actuator may bind, making turning the key difficult or causing the ignition to get stuck in the "Start" position. CONSEQUENCE: If stuck in the "Start" position, the ignition may suddenly snap back into the "Accessory" position, causing a loss of engine, steering, and braking power, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. If the vehicle is in a crash, the air bags may not deploy, increasing the risk of occupant injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the ignition lock housing, as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14696 for the original equipment, and 14912 for the service replacement parts.
800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
