70 Chevy C-10 Custom Street Rod Keith Black 454 700r4 Lowered Cd Ac Pw Ps Pb Nr on 2040-cars
Sterling, Illinois, United States
1971 Chevy C10 454 Custom Street Rod The C series was Chevrolet’s full size pick ups from 1960 – 1999. The 1960 model year introduced a new body style of light pick-up trucks that featured a drop-center ladder frame which allowed the cab to sit lower and independent front suspension which gave an almost car-like ride in a truck. The cab was changed for 1964 by eliminating the wraparound windshield, the front grille was redesigned and there were various interior changes. In 1969 it received a redesigned grille again along with a more upright hood. Originally from Texas this sweet rod was restored about 8 years ago at which time the odometer had just flipped 100,000 so the current odometer reading reflects the mileage on the restoration. The heart of this gorgeous truck is a 454 that was performance built by Keith Black and is now a 476 estimated to put out 450hp. The 700R4 was just installed about 2,000 miles ago and when combined with the Eaton 3:08 posi rear end is capable of close to 20 mpg on the highway. When you get in to it you know she means business as it sounds just plain nasty ripping through its 3” exhaust with X pipe and Flowmaster mufflers. She is an absolute pleasure to drive with power steering, power disc brakes, power windows, CD and ice cold A/C. The paint looks as if it was just sprayed yesterday and has a mirror shine. It has been lowered 3” up front and 4” in the rear which really gives this beauty an aggressive stance. When the car was lowered it received a larger front sway bar as well as a rear sway bar making her a pleasure to drive. Also worth noting are the beautiful polished Centerline rims, bright chrome work, sliding rear window, tonneau cover, bed rug and the fact that she has received her NSRA Safety 23 Certification. If you have been looking for Custom Chevy pick up you will be hard pressed to find one as powerful and reliable as this one for what we are asking. If you could see yourself cruising in the sweet rod you better call us before it’s gone!

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
