Chevy K10 Truck 4x4 4wd 1979 Chevrolet Pickup on 2040-cars
US $3,100.00
Year:1979
Mileage:152000
Location:
Glenns Ferry, Idaho, United States
|
Condition: Exceptional condition for a vehicle which I would consider as being "unrestored". The paint is original, and the truck is almost entirely stock.
Features: Dealer installed A/C and cruise control. All wheel drive. Rare 400ci small block. Freshly rebuilt Turbo 350 Transmission with shift correction. History: For sale is this 1979 Chevy K10 Silverado with a professionally rebuilt turbo 350 transmission. The chassis has 152k and the 400c.i. small block was rebuilt by the first owner. Originally purchased in Glenns Ferry from Shrum Motors in 1979, this truck still shows its shine from its freshly detailed single-stage lacquer paintjob. My father bought this truck from the original owner in Mountain Home, and my father drove it for roughly a decade here in rural Southern Idaho. At some point the transmission gave out so there it sat for about three years before I got ahold of it. I originally swapped out the transmission for a second-hand purchase, and from there I drove the truck for about a year. In that time I installed a new carburetor kit, I adjusted the hydraulic lifters, checked the timing, and installed new spark plugs with the correct gap. Since the carburetor kit, this truck has always started immediately so long as it's driven daily. The automatic choke operates perfectly, giving this truck immediate cold starts, high idle warm-up, and a comfortably low warm idle. Within the last hundred miles I have pulled the second-hand transmission and installed a professionally rebuilt transmission with shift correction from Tim Cabral, an ASE Certified Transmission Builder. The shift is firm, and the shift points are adjusted perfectly for the throttle and vacuum environment. Check out this video: http://youtu.be/Yt9HnXI6Cb4 Items which currently do not work: -The horns have been disconnected because they stay on -The A/C probably needs recharged, I have never installed a belt -The climate control leaves the fan speed on low, but the truck heats up nicely I am selling the truck because I have an SUV and a highway car. As much as I love this truck, I need to cut back on personal projects. I am keen someone can take this project to the next level. I have brought the paint back to good condition, and overall the truck details nicely. All of the chrome is in exceptional condition, and although the paint has some dings and scratches, it polishes like nothing I have ever owned. The softness of the lacquer paint makes scratches, stains and imperfections a matter of swirl remover. |

Mon, Jun 22 2015With the new sixth-generation Chevy Camaro now upon us, Chevrolet is gearing up to drop the top on the new 2016 Camaro Convertible, previewed in this latest teaser video. There isn't much to go on from this short clip – the new convertible will feature a fully automated folding roof that will retract at the push of a button. Beyond that, we expect it to carry over the same features as the hardtop version we've already seen. Chevy is due to unveil what it calls "the most innovative Camaro Convertible ever" just a couple of days from now, so watch this space.
Chevy will reveal the Bolt EV tomorrow at CES
Tue, Jan 5 2016The moment that electric vehicle consumers and green propulsion enthusiasts have been waiting for is almost upon us, as Chevy confirmed that it will unveil the production version of the 2017 Bolt EV Wednesday at CES in Las Vegas. Chevrolet previewed the Bolt in concept form at the Detroit Auto Show almost a year ago, proposing a compelling rival to the likes of the Nissan Leaf and BMW i3. We've expected the CES debut for awhile, and Chevy projects that the finished product will boast a range of more than 200 miles on a single charge. That's nearly double the Leaf's range, and significantly farther than the i3 will travel even with the Range Extender kicking in. All of that for under $30,000 after federal tax credits. Of course, Chevy's own Spark EV costs much less, but will only go 82 miles before it needs to plug in again. If you won't be in Vegas for the unveiling tomorrow, you can catch it on Facebook. It will be the first vehicle to debut on the new Facebook Live, featuring both a live video stream and a 360-degree interactive interior video. Once out on the market, the Bolt EV will join the Spark EV, Volt PHEV, and Malibu hybrid in a growing array of electrified vehicles from the American automaker, rivaling the likes of Toyota and Nissan for the most electrified vehicles in its lineup. Chevrolet Bolt EV Will Debut at CES 2016-01-05 DETROIT – Chevrolet will unveil the 2017 Bolt EV at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas on Wednesday, Jan. 6, and be the first auto brand to work with Facebook to debut a vehicle using Facebook Live. With the addition of the Bolt EV to a lineup that includes the all-new 2016 Volt, 2016 Malibu Hybrid and Spark EV, Chevrolet will offer consumers more affordable, electrified vehicle options than any other major automotive brand – solidifying its position as the leader in electrification. "The Bolt EV truly embodies the ingenuity that is at the core of everything we do at Chevrolet," said Alan Batey, president of General Motors North America and head of Global Chevrolet. "The technologies and the engineering expertise behind the Bolt EV are tremendous examples of the kind of innovation we intend to offer our customers, across an array of products at a tremendous value – something only Chevrolet can deliver." Building on the electrification expertise established by the Volt, the Bolt EV is a game-changing, long-range electric vehicle.
