1970 Chevrolet K20 4x4 Truck Rust Free C10 Cheyenne Chevy 4 Speed on 2040-cars
|
Letting my factory 1970 Chevrolet 3/4 ton K20 4x4 go. Factory V8/4 Speed truck. I've had the truck about a year and it is in mostly original condition. Never lifted or modified. Just a nice old solid 4x4 and they are getting harder to find. Looking to make room for a new project and pay some bills. That being said I may entertain a trade. Paint/Body- 100% rust free. Truck is extremely solid for a 69-72. Roof and rain gutters are excellent. Floors, cab corners and kick panels are solid. Cowl area is clean. Bed floor and front panel are straight and rust free. I have looked for bubbles, rust or heavy bondo and have not found any. Truck has had the rockers and two of the cab supports replaced in the past. Paint is nice and body is very straight. Has two small dings by the cab light. Bed is coated with a rhino liner but, is damaged in some areas and inner wheel well have some dents. Glass is all good except the windshield. Glass company cracked it during install. Firewall and interior retain original paint and chalk markings. The weatherstripping in the door jambs and window felts are all new. New door handles, bumper, tailgate trim, tail lamp lenses, NOS grille inner and outer. Tailgate is mint. No dents or rust. Suspension/Wheels/Tires-Truck has very rare 16.5x8.75 wheels. It took me forever to find these and they look absolutely killer. They were painted the same white as the cab top and rear bumper. Has very nice Cooper 33x12.50's mounted on them. I have the factory rear caps installed and may have the fronts by end of auction. Truck has front power disc brakes and power steering. New warn locking hubs. 4.10 axles. Absolute stump puller. Frame was coated with POR15 and underside of bed was coated with bedliner. Overall the underside is pretty clean. The rear leafs have helper springs installed and the truck has a very stout stance. Drives down the road like an old 4x4. Has a little play in the steering but, I've driven much newer trucks that have the same play. Engine/Transmission-Truck has a V8 engine out of an 80's Van. Runs strong. Edelbrock intake and carb. Rams horn exhaust manifolds. High energy ignition. New starter, battery, battery cables. SM465 4 speed transmission. NP205 transfer case is gear driven not chain. Sounds good but, if I were to keep it I would change the exhaust out for something quieter and ran all the way out the back. Interior-Not much to say here. Original paint on the inside of the cab. The inside of the doors have been resprayed and look good. Rubber mat does not fit well and I would replace with a better one if I were to keep it. Dash pad and sun visors are excellent. New dash bezel and lense, new shift boots, brake pedal covers, white arm rest, radio delete plate. Seat has been recovered with a factory houndstooth cover and new foam. The dash lights work but, most of the factory gauges still need to be hooked up. Overall a nice solid 3/4 ton K20. These are hard to find in any condition and this one has a great look with the color combo. Willing to look at trades and I will assist in shipping this truck anywhere. Clear title in my name. $500 deposit required within 24 hours. Full payment within 5 days. Can store the truck as long as it is paid for. Sold as is where is.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
