1963 Chevrolet C-10 Long Box Fleetside hotrod truck

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AD BEFORE BIDDING. 

READ THIS PART FIRST! 

The engine on this truck runs quiet and has good power but will need to be looked at soon. 

I think one of the intake manifold gaskets needs replaced. When I got the truck a few weeks ago the oil had a tiny bit of water in it and I was told it had just started doing that. I changed the oil and filter with 10w-40 and it has not fouled again. The compression seems good, the spark plugs are not showing signs of a blown head gasket, the exhaust does not steam on either side, the radiator does not bubble or gurgle and is not getting oil into it but the valve covers will steam a little bit from the breathers when it's running. The valvetrain itself looks clean. I don't believe the leak is into the combustion chambers. 

From what I've researched online I believe it's one of the intake gaskets under the intake manifold that needs replaced and as far as I can tell it's a small leak. 

I just noticed a bolt is missing from the manifold and that could possibly have everything to do with it. Replacing the missing bolt and snugging down the aluminum manifold might solve the problem. I'm moving and don't have time to work on the truck.

I have a brand new full engine gasket kit that goes with the truck which will cover both head gaskets, intake gaskets, exhaust and water pump, and pretty much every other engine gasket you'd need to just replace them all on the top end. 

The truck is parked so it is not being driven right now while I work on moving. 

The Details: 

Washington state Horseless Carriage permanent antique vehicle plates. (never needs tags, similar to Antique or Special Oregon plates) Handy if you live in Washington state.

4 speed floor shift - gears work good, transmission is quiet, clutch feels tight and seems to work good, big stupid ratrod shifter handle for laughs

V8 - Unsure what displacement it is, factory aluminum 4bbl intake, factory paint looks to be medium blue. Unsure if it is a 305 or 350. I was told it is a 283 but I don't think that's correct. The Engine runs quiet and will idle nice and slow. It makes good power and pulls well. 

HEI distributor

Headers

New dual exhaust with glass packs, sounds great. Not over loud but a nice classic hotrod sound.

Cab has one tiny rust hole in the floor on the passenger side but overall it is decent otherwise. 

At some point the cab was undercoated, looks to be factory.

Small dents and dings here and there on the body and bed but no major damage. 

Frame and undercarriage looks great, greasy but not rusted, looks straight.

Door corners and fender lower corners have old rust repairs (common) but overall the body looks solid. 

All the glass is in uncracked condition. Window rubbers and fuzzies are old but easy to find replacements online. 

Windows roll up and down, wind wings open and close

A two speed electric fan run by a toggle switch on the dash has replaced the clutch engine fan. It moves a LOT more air than the stock fan and is quiet on low speed even at idle. 

Lowering springs, not cut coils, so it has a nice stance. 

New pirelli tires with full tread.

Chevy six lug steel rally wheels with chrome beauty rings

The headlights and stop lights work. Turn Signals are not hooked up (I use hand signals anyway :) 

Chrome drip rail 'peep' mirrors on the doors.

The truck has a heater and hoses are ran to it but I don't think it is wired up. 

Unsure if the wipers are wired up but they are complete. 

Steering feels tight. I have not noticed it wandering. 

An entire spare bed box is included with better inner fenders and a bit straighter bed sides. 

Neither bed has a tailgate. Bed floor is two plywood sheets. 

 It drives and runs well and should be just fine with the engine gaskets replaced. 

TL;DR This is a cool hotrod truck, dual exhaust, headers, V8, 4 speed, runs, drives, ENGINE NEEDS A GASKET, comes with gaskets that are needed. If you live in Portland Oregon or Washington State I would drive it home and spend a weekend replacing the gaskets and you will have a great running old hotrod truck however driving it or not is up to the buyer.

Editors' Picks August 2021 | Honda Civic, Mercedes S-Class and more

Thu, Sep 9 2021

This month of Editors' Picks saw us award the honor to a couple of redesigned stalwarts like the Honda Civic and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. Plus, a new crossover that splits the difference between the compact and subcompact class takes home the prize. On top of this, we'll introduce you to a new term: midcompact. We'll be using this to describe those in-between crossovers that are a tad too small to be considered compact, but too large to neatly fit into the subcompact class. For a few examples of these "midcompact" cars, we'll point you to the Ford Bronco Sport, Kia Seltos and VW Seltos. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in August that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2021 Genesis G70 2022 Genesis G70 View 26 Photos Quick take: Genesis hits all the right buttons with its G70. It's attractive, fun to drive and can be had for a fair price. Enthusiasts should give it a shot before taking home one of its German competitors. Score: 8 What it competes with: Alfa Romeo Giulia, Lexus IS, Acura TLX, Infiniti Q50, Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Cadillac CT4, Volvo S60 Pros: Sharp handler, stunning exterior looks, strong engines Cons: Average interior, loses manual option, small backseat and trunk From the editors: News Editor Joel Stocksdale — "I was already a big fan of the Genesis G70. It has brilliant handling, and the twin-turbo V6 is a beast. It's even a bargain against the competition. And Genesis just made it look a lot better. I wish they'd done a bit more to update the interior, but it's still not a bad cabin. Besides, you won't think too much about it when you're hustling down a fun back road." Features Editor James Riswick — "Yes, it is small, but in a sport sedan segment where "sport" means increasingly less, the G70 still delivers (in part because of that smallness).

2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696

Fri, Sep 17 2021

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).
