Actual Survivor In Great Shape on 2040-cars
Ottawa, Illinois, United States
Up for your consideration is a 1972 Chevrolet custom deluxe c-10 this is a two owner, original survivor with authentic patina...the real deal! The truck was originally sold from Zscheile Motor Company at Burlington Kansas The truck still comes with the original dealer imprint plate! Very rare... along with the warranty info /emissions booklet/ and owners manual...all original! This truck is 90 % stock and untouched... The tires are not original, tailgate was replaced, along with some parts under the hood... The original rims, carburetor, wires, points distributor, and air cleaner are available if you are interested in the parts. the carb ,distributor wires, and air cleaner assembly where replaced with newer higher performance parts. (I have the originals in a box) The motor is completely stock and is the 4bolt main and higher compression engine...it requires the 91 octane or higher...still has the original diagnostic sticker to prove it! The motor runs excellent and strong. The trans was refreshed but is the original trans to the truck. shifts strong with no issues, very dependable. the rest of the drive train and suspension is all original and in excellent working order. the truck also has the rear leaf suspension and is very tight, not the wore out money pit of the trailing arm style! The truck has newer dual exhaust with new performance mufflers all in great shape Has new brakes up front, calipers were restored along with the original front rotors The rear brakes are new and the drums are original to the truck, all in great shape\ All the brake lines and fuel lines are in great shape The frame of the truck is in good shape and solid The body is all original and shows authentic patina and wear over the years... this is what is hot now. The real deal! a survivor...a natural not made to look like it is one... priceless originality.... The only rust issues the truck has, is the inside of the bed around the wheel wells and back by the tailgate do have rust that could be repaired and the natural patina of the truck wouldn't be harmed, the rust is on the inside and wouldn't interfere with the exterior look. There is rust on the lower drivers side door but fits the look of the truck... clear coat it to protect it and have the original look. guys are paying big bucks to have this look done. The truck starts, runs, steers, and stops excellent, it is fun and easy to drive.... turns all kinds of heads and is conversation piece at your stops. Very cool truck with no issues, jump in and drive it next spring... or do your custom tweaks during the winter and have it the way you want it come spring! Some one started to put in vintage a/c and didn't finish... I haven't removed it yet. you can either finish it or remove for the complete stock look. The only reason I am selling the truck...I actually bought it for my dad two years ago... worked on everything to make it easy to drive/safe/ and dependable.... and tried to give it to him as a surprise gift...( his favorite truck 30-some years ago was a 1972 that looked just like this one) but he told me he wasn't in to it anymore the love for the old truck was gone... I was pretty shocked... but anyway... I am finally going to sell it now... hopefully it will go to someone who has a passion for it... and will drive and enjoy it. Thanks for looking
Now for the legal crap Clear title in hand....ready to go no warranty cash in person or a bank to bank transfer I'm not going to deliver it to you for a reasonable price so don't ask. hire a company. I will only be involved to watch it be loaded out and hand the hauler the paperwork...(once the truck has been paid in full) NO LOWBALLERS OR TIRE KICKERS deposit of 250 due in 24hrs through paypal If you need to let it set here that's ok, but it will be agreed upon before end of auction and you will pay for the entire truck first. if it sits here past the agreed date I reserve the right to resell it... I reserve the right to end the auction early, (for sale locally) If you have reasonable questions: send and email and be patient for me to reply...I don't check email every day

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
Nissan Leaf keeps plug-in vehicle sales crown for 6th straight month
Thu, May 1 2014And Nissan makes it 14 in a row. For the 14th straight month, the all-electric Leaf has had "record sales," according to Nissan's marketing team. What that means is that for that particular month (in this case, April) no matter what year you look at, the car sold more than it ever did before. For April 2014, the 2,088 Leafs sold represents a 7.8-percent increase from 2013. Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said in a statement that the "new market" of Cincinnati made the top 25 list for Leaf sales areas in April, so the car's popularity continues to ebb and flow across the US. Over at Chevy, the Volt sold 1,548 units in April, reaching a year-to-date total of 5,154. The Leaf is outpacing that with 7,272 YTD sales. In 2013, the Volt outsold the Leaf by about 500 vehicles, but Leaf sales are up 33 percent year-over-year while Volt is down 7.1 percent. The Leaf has also outsold the Volt for six straight months. But we're excited for every eco-car sale, and that's why we'll have our monthly detailed write-up of the rest of the plug-ins, hybrids and diesel vehicles available soon. Until then, discuss.

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.
