You will not find a more dependable better riding or driving C10. This is a true "turn key" get in and go anywhere truck...no need to bring a trailer to haul it back!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine was kept stock (with a nostalgic look) as I wanted it to be practical and dependable for everyday driving while getting the best gas mileage that a 350 has to offer.

You will not find a more mechanically sound drive train. - Fresh 350 4 bolt main engine(010 casting #s) w/ 350 turbo automatic tranny -Quadrajet 4 barrel carb - Weiand intake -Coated headers w/ Flowmasters (40 series) -New plugs/wires/oil change...everything in drive train has been recently serviced and is ready to go -Trans cooler installed -3 core radiator upgrade…this truck can idle in the desert for days and not run hot -New passenger inner fender -New battery
EXTERIOR: The sheet metal of this truck is in excellent shape(perfectly straight) with all the panels fitting very nicely together. Notice that this truck has only natural patina due to weathering, but you can add your own touches as you see fit. There is a small ding in the crease of the front right fender(see pics/video)…easy to fix if you want to “slick” the truck. This is the only ding in the sheet metal. All the suspension/steering components of this truck were rebuilt/replaced. This truck is lowered properly with Early Classic components in order to maintain the correct geometry for proper handling and excellent ride. -Suspension is a complete 4/6 complete drop kit from Early Classic Enterprise that includes 2.5 drop spindles, springs, KYB GR2 shocks w/ relocators, super track bar….this kit provides for a killer stance with awesome ride without any shake or vibration at any speed -5 lug with New 20” Boss 8.5 front & back wheels w/ Michelin tires....this truck was built to drive so I went with the same size wheels and tires so they could be rotated properly. -Power Steering & Power Disc Brakes up front with New front calipers/rotors/pads/rear drums and shoes -Front end professionally lined -Drive shaft rebuilt with new bearing carrier & universal joints -Early Classic hidden hitch with adjustable air shocks in the rear for towing/hauling with brake assist hook up -Sway bar with new Moog bushings -Cab mounts are in excellent shape -Cab corners/rockers/kick panels /all the notorious places for rust on these trucks are in great shape -GM Bahama blue base coat/ clear coat…..beautiful color....the truck was originally the stock blue from the factory -Floor of the bed is showing its age, but again it just adds to the nostalgic appeal of the truck -Chassis/Undercarriage is in perfect shape...if you need pics, just let me know -The doors shut as good as a new Chevy truck -Windows are in great shape and open and roll up/down as they should -New front and rear bumpers -All lights/signals work great -Note that the Shop Logo is superficial to the clear coat, and with a little lacquer thinner, can be removed in about 5 mins.
INTERIOR: It would be extremely difficult to make the interior of one of these trucks any nicer while maintaining the original integrity of the cab. -Cab has been insulated with sound mat/jute -New floor mat -Original style AM/FM radio with cd/iPod/mp3 upgrade & new speakers...old school look with new technology - All glass and cab seals are in great shape -New 3 point(shoulder) seat belts from Brothers …also installed a middle lap belt -New Houndstooth seat cover -New gas tank with sending unit -All glass is in perfect shape -Windows work great and wing glass opens perfectly -All gauges work properly -Floor pans/kick panels are all original and in great shape
Check out the video of this truck on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0cEQanbzRQ
Overall, this is a beautiful truck that is extremely nice and super clean with a lot of character and personality. This truck was built to be a shop/patina style truck, but the sheet metal/body on the truck is in such great shape it is ready to block sand and paint if you want a traditional show truck. There is one small ding in the crease of the front passenger fender(see pics./video) and the front bed petition has a slight bend…these quirks add to the overall appearance of the patina style, but if you want to “slick” the truck, they will need to be addressed. If you like the shop/patina style trucks, this one is super nice. It was not just thrown and pieced together, and if you see it, you will realize the attention to detail that was taken with this truck. If you have detailed questions about anything with respect to the truck, please do not hesitate to ask. I understand that it is difficult to buy a truck by looking at pics miles away, but please understand that I have sold through ebay going on 14 years now and have never received a single negative feedback. I encourage anyone interested in this style of truck to come look. Most vehicles look better in pics than in person.....and trust me, I having driven countless hours with only regret and disappointment at the end of the venture.... but I promise you will not get that experience with this truck. I guarantee the truck looks better in person than in the pics. I am not trying to hide anything on this truck and encourage anyone interested in a C10 to come look. You are more than welcome to send a 3rd party inspector to assess the truck and make sure it is describe accurately. If you have any questions or want other pics, please don’t hesitate to ask. Serious inquires only! A $500 Paypal deposit is due within 48 hrs. at end of auction with balance due within 7 days in cash, wire transfer, or cashier’s check from bank(check will need to be verified before truck is released). If you can't abide by this policy, then please do not make an offer. This is a true 1970 C10 with a Clean/Clear title in my name with matching numbers on the original door tag and glove box…..

GM puts 3 million miles on hydrogen fuel cell test fleet
Mon, May 12 2014Have General Motors' hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles emitted enough water vapor over the past six-plus years to equal the steam coming out of Old Faithful? Not exactly, but GM has released a few figures related to the Project Driveway initiative it began in 2007. The numbers are impressive, if not quite of the geyser-spouting variety. In all, the General converted 119 Chevrolet Equinox SUVs to run on hydrogen, and those vehicles have just collectively surpassed the 3 million mile mark. And if you were waiting for us to tell you that the distance equals a half-dozen round trips between the earth and the moon, well, there you go. The better news is that the SUVs have combined to save almost 158,000 gallons worth of gas, and some of the vehicles have more than 120,000 miles on them. More than 5,000 drivers have participated in the project. GM reached that landmark about 10 months after it announced that it was working with Honda to accelerate the development of hydrogen fuel-cell powertrain technology. The two companies estimated last summer that it may have something to sell to the public as soon as 2020. For now, you can check out General Motors' press release below. GM Fuel Cell Fleet Tops 3 Million Miles Chevrolet Equinox fuel cell vehicles driven in real world reach milestone DETROIT – General Motors' fleet of fuel cell vehicles recently passed 3 million miles of hydrogen-powered, real-world driving. Some individual vehicles have accumulated more than 120,000 miles. By GM's estimate, using hydrogen to power these vehicles, the fleet has avoided 157,894 gallons of gasoline consumption. This specially equipped fleet of Chevrolet Equinox Fuel Cell vehicles are part of GM's 119-vehicle Project Driveway program, which launched in 2007. Since then, more than 5,000 drivers have provided feedback on the functionality and drivability of fuel cell technology. "Hydrogen fuel cell technology is an important part of GM's advanced propulsion portfolio and we continue to make substantial progress in furthering this technology," said Charlie Freese, executive director of GM's global fuel cell engineering activities. "These vehicles have operated through seven full winters and a wide range of environmental conditions, proving that fuel cells can meet the demands of real-world drivers." Last year, GM announced two fuel cell-related collaborations.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
GMC Canyon, Chevy Colorado diesels finally heading to dealers
Fri, Jan 1 2016Customers who have been waiting to receive their diesel-powered Chevrolet Colorados and GMC Canyons should be relived to hear that GM will finally start to ship them out of the Wentzville Assembly Plant. "The highly anticipated 2016 GMC Canyon diesel has begun shipping to dealers," a company spokesperson confirmed to The Detroit News. The trucks originally had a fall launch date, but a final review forced a delay in deliveries. The 2.8-liter four-cylinder diesel in the midsize trucks produces 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and the company touts the engine's low emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board even put the mill through extra scrutiny with a real world test in the wake of VW's diesel scandal, and the Duramax passed with no problems. At that time, a Chevy spokesperson told Autoblog that the models' launch was on track. The Duramax engine adds $3,730 to the price of a comparable V6 model, but they're the most fuel-efficient pickups on the market. The EPA estimates the twins at 31 miles per gallon highway, 22 mpg city, and 25 mpg combined in two-wheel drive form and 29/20/23 with four-wheel drive. Buyers likely can't wait to finally experience these pickups after reading a heap of positive reviews. The Colorado diesel recently earned Motor Trend's Truck of the Year award. We also came away impressed with it during our First Drive and liked the Canyon during our Quick Spin. Related Video:
