I have too many projects, so I am trying to downsize. This is a rare truck with a lot of potential. I don't have enough time for multiple projects, so I am selling a few. More will be listed soon.
This auction is for a 1967 Chevrolet C10 short bed (clear title). It is a rescued barn find that has been cleaned up. A frame-off restoration has been started. Also included is a 1969 Chevrolet C10 long bed (clear title). I also have a 1992 GMC Sierra SLX short bed step side that I am including (title signed in wrong place - easy to remedy if necessary).
The 1967 Chevrolet C10 is a one year only cab (small back glass). The fenders are also unique in 1967. It will be a nice looking truck when done. I was in the process of restoring this truck for my wife. It was going to be pink (bright metallic pink). A frame-off restoration was started and not completed. It is a very solid truck for the age. A lot of the hard work is done. The frame is undercoated. The inner fenders are undercoated. Part of the cab is undercoated. The bed needs undercoated. Minor rust repair needs to be done before the rest of the cab and the bed can be undercoated. The firewall and inner fenders are painted pink. The radiator support is painted black. The inner fenders and radiator support were removed from the 1969 Chevrolet C10 parts truck (were very nice). The fenders are nice and would take minimal work to prepare for paint. The cab is in decent shape. The cab corners needed to be replaced. Someone tried to build a cab corner for the passenger side...I would recommend using the cab corners from the 1969 C10 (need minor rust repairs) or ordering new cab corners. Both rocker panels were replaced. The floor is solid but needs a couple of small patches. The floor supports were rusty. Both supports on the passenger side are replaced. Both supports on the driver side should be replaced. I have the rear support but can't find the front support. I will look for the other support and will include it if I find it. I have new bolts to bolt the cab down. The bed is solid but will need a few small patches. There are also a couple of small holes in the bed floor to repair. The body is assembled but not all bolted together. Everything will need to be adjusted and bolted together better. The bed is not attached (just sitting on the frame), so it will be easy to remove and repair. It was loosely assembled for transport. There is a lot of potential here.
The truck has been lowered. The front springs are attached. The rear springs are sitting in the proper place but not attached. The parts truck should have the necessary parts. I have a few new bolts to include. The front shocks are new. I would swap the rear shocks with the parts truck (they are not very old). The truck will have a nice stance after the drivetrain is installed. The tires are new...and the polished aluminum wheels are almost new (look really nice)...bolted on with new lug nuts. It has the big-n-little treatment (taller and wider in the rear - shorter and narrower in the front). 31x10.50x15 in the rear and 215x65x15 in the front mounted on 15x8 wheels.
The intention was to paint the truck bright metallic pink with black stripes. I have the pink paint and will include it. I was going to use the steel bumper from the 1969 C10 on the front and a steel roll pan in the rear (new one included). It had a nice rear bumper with a receiver hitch, but that was removed. It is included just in case you prefer to use it. I also have a really nice front bumper and new brackets if you prefer chrome bumpers. The front bumper that was removed was a little rough but would make a nice core to have rechromed. I was going to change the doors (the doors from the 1969 C10 are really nice). The interior was going to be pink and black as well. I was going to replace the carpet and dye the seat (which is really nice for the age). I was considering using the step side bed from the 1992 GMC. It is in great shape other than one bed side (rear bumper damaged it). I have a nice replacement bedside though (easy to change). The tailgate is pretty nice...the floor is solid and straight...nice bed. I have a plastic roll pan that I can include (used but needs a little work). The 1967 C10 would look nice with a step side bed (I have seen it done many times). I was told that the 1992 GMC could be used as a donor so the 1967 C10 could be converted to 5-lug wheels. It is currently a 6-lug truck (built that way when new).
I also have an engine and transmission to include. The engine is a freshly built 350 that was driven a handful of miles in another toy before being removed and painted a different color so it could be used in the 1967 C10. The intake and valve covers were changed at that time. It has an aluminum 4-barrel Edelbrock Performer intake and aluminum Edelbrock valve covers. Edelbrock intake gaskets were used on the intake. Molded rubber reusable gaskets were used on the valve covers. It has a chrome fuel pump block-off plate so an electric pump can be used. I don't have a fuel pump for it. I also don't have headers (I may have a set of cast exhaust manifolds but will have to look). I have an Edelbrock 650 carburetor and Edelbrock air cleaner to include. All brackets, pulleys, and accessories are included. The transmission is a freshly built Turbo 350 that was built for a 1970 Chevelle and was bolted to an engine only for mock-up (no miles). It is supposed to have a mild stall converter. The 1967 C10 has a 12-bolt rear end. It previously had a 396 engine and a turbo 400 transmission.
I am including the original owners manual and supplemental materials in the original bag (for the 1967 Chevrolet C10). The last picture shows the 1967 C10 prior to being disassembled. A little work and some paint will make this a sweet ride.
These trucks are also for sale locally...so I reserve the right to end the auction early. I will add a buy-it-now price if necessary. I prefer to sell everything as a whole package, but I may be willing to split things up. This auction is for everything.
Basically everything you would need is included. I am sure there are a few little things you will need, but the majority is here. I am including many extra parts for 1967-72 Chevrolet trucks. A lot of the hard work is done. It needs to be finished and enjoyed.
I will be happy to show you the trucks if you would like to give them a personal inspection. Also feel free to contact me with questions.
I am willing to deliver everything for a small fee...but I prefer to have the new owner pick up. I will help you load if you need help. Contact me with questions.
Thanks and Happy Bidding.

Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 concept suggests a diesel off-road future
Thu, Nov 20 2014"It takes the Colorado to a whole new place." – Mark Reuss The Chevrolet Colorado looks set to gain a more capable off-road version, with the company previewing a potential design direction with a ruggedized concept Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show. Called the Colorado ZR2, the concept brings back the name used on off-road-tuned S-10 and Blazer models in the 1990s and 2000s. The ZR2 has a track that's four inches wider than the Colorado Z71, which is currently the line's most capable off-roader. The ZR2 is fitted with a new grille, power-dome hood, custom wheel flares and off-road-style fascia that reduces overhang and has flip-out aluminum tow hooks. It's all slathered in an outdoorsy hue dubbed Cyprus Green. The are electronic locking front and rear differentials, skid plates and mono-tube coilover shock absorbers. It all rolls (or crawls) on 275/65R18 off-road tires wrapped around custom 18-inch aluminum wheels. There's also a spare tire assembly mounted in the bed, which has a spray-in liner and 48-inch lift jack should things go afoul on the trail. "It takes the Colorado to a whole new place," Mark Reuss, General Motors executive vice president of global product development, said at the reveal. Power comes from the 2.8-liter Duramax diesel engine making 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. This engine will arrive later in the year in the production Colorado. While the ZR2 remains only a concept, it suggests a new path for the Colorado – one we hope Chevy decides to take. Chevrolet Introduces Colorado ZR2 Concept Aggressively styled, more capable and driven by new 2.8L Duramax diesel engine LOS ANGELES – Chevrolet today introduced the Colorado ZR2 concept – a vision of how Chevrolet could take the all-new midsize truck's off-road capability to the next level. It also showcases the new 2.8L Duramax diesel engine that will arrive in the Colorado lineup later next year. The aggressively styled concept builds on the capabilities of the production Colorado Z71 and advances the legacy of Chevrolet's previous ZR2 production models. "From the bold stance to the trail-ready special equipment, the Colorado ZR2 is all about the fun of driving where the pavement ends – and doing it in characteristic Chevy style," said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager.
8 cars we're most looking forward to driving in 2015
Mon, Jan 5 2015Now that 2014 is officially in the books, it's time to look ahead. And following our list of the cars we liked best last year, we're now setting our sights at the hot new metal that's coming our way in 2015. Some of these, we've already seen. And some are still set to debut during the 2015 auto show season. But these are the machines that keep us going – the things on the horizon that we're particularly stoked to drive, and drive hard. Jeep Renegade Not the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Not the Ford Mustang GT350. Not the new John Cooper Works Mini. Nope, I'm looking forward to the adorable, trail-rated Jeep Renegade. And that's because I really, really, really like our long-term Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. I do not, however, care too much for the Cherokee's looks, and I really don't like its $38,059 price tag. The Renegade Trailhawk, meanwhile, promises much of the same rough-and-tumble character as its big brother, but at what we expect will be a more reasonable price (I'm personally wagering on the baby Jeep's off-road model starting at no more than $23,000). With a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a nine-speed automatic, it should also be a bit easier to fill than the V6-powered Cherokee. Also, I can't help but love the way the Renegade looks. It's like someone took a Wrangler, squished it by 50 percent and then handed it off to George Clinton for a healthy dose of funk. The interior, with its bright, expressive trims and color schemes should also be a really nice place to spend some time. I'll be attending the Renegade's launch later this month, so I'll have a much shorter wait than my colleagues. Here's hoping the baby Jeep lives up to my expectations. – Brandon Turkus Associate Editor Mazda MX-5 Miata Here's an uncomfortable truth: I'd rather spend a day driving a properly sorted Mazda MX-5 Miata of any generation on a winding road than I would nearly any other vehicle, regardless of power, price or prestige. It's not just that I prize top-down driving and enjoy the Miata's small size because it gives me more road to play with. I just find there's more motoring joy to be had with high-fidelity handling and an uncorrupted car-to-driver communication loop than I do with face-distorting power or grip – let alone valet-stand gravitas. But perhaps most of all, I love Miatas because they can deliver that level of feedback and driver reward at modest speeds that won't put the locals on edge or endanger lives – you can use more of the car more of the time.
Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
