1968 Chevrolet C10 Shortbed Custom Resto Mod Meets Drag Truck on 2040-cars

Year:1968 Mileage:2300
Location:

Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States

Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States

1968 chevy pickup c-10.   
This a shortbed truck built by Dallas performance originally. It has a 6.0 LQ9 motor and wiring harness out of 2005 cadillac escalade.  It has a 6 speed transmission with pistol grip shifter and it runs and drives better than you can imagine. Its a daily driver, cruiser and street fighter.  The motor is fuel injected and has a computer that you can take to any dealership for servicing. 
There's a ton to list on this truck. 
Air ride technologies suspension, 4.11 positrac rear end, custom fuel lines and pump with tank in bed professionally done.   
At the time it was built it took on all on comers.  It was a shop truck that could run with the best--and it still does.  
Horsepower on dyno was 468 to the tires which means motor makes 538 horsepower-did I meantion its built and the motor makes 730 on the nitrous, 650 to the tire.  Well It not hooked up and I have never run it but it was built for it and it really doesn't need it- it pulls hard all the way through powerband.  I have a new z06 and I think it would be close race.
 
@@@@NO 350 cubic inch carburated motor and 350 automatic transmission like everyone else  )-OH NOOO.  !!!  
This is different.
Camaro new style electric seats with air conditioning or heat for long hour long cruises.
Lots of custom work to body, no gas cap, no metal drip rails, no lights in fenders, grill is a little custom and the truck just works incredible.

It sounds incredible, Probably the best sounding truck or car I have ever owned,  THERE will be no disappointments.

This truck needs a new home, I have had it 8 years and had it to alot of shows and its a super fun truck,  It needs someone who can put a custom wood bed in and do alittle bit of work to the body.  It has no rust but it would be a good weekend project for a father son, or guy who likes to trick out cars,  I use the bed for hauling some stuff around and the bed wood needs some work.

I am going to try to download on you tube the truck but Not sure.
THERE IS NOT ANOTHER TRUCK LIKE THIS AND NEVER WILL AGAIN.    This truck is not a trailer queen and its not original,  Its a 32,000 build thats going probably for half price.
This truck will run state to state without problems so if you buy it you can drive it home.  You can run it to oklahoma city and take on the farm truck if you want.  I think it would be a good race.

Thanks, Send me your questions and happy bidding. 


On Jul-03-14 at 21:26:03 PDT, seller added the following information:

Transmission is T-56 6 speed.  It has a mcleod lightweight flywheel with a spec clutch.  


I am wanting to sell truck so if you have any questions or offers please email me so I can answer your questions, if anyone knows how to you tube video let me know so I can post this truck it will explain all the above by the sound 
3 inch exhaust, magnaflow mufflers, headers and zenon headlights.

The Opel GT is the concept General Motors should build for the US

Sat, Feb 27 2016

Now is the time. General Motors should double-down on performance cars and build the Opel GT concept that's set to debut next week at the Geneva Motor Show. Better yet, sell it in the United States as the Chevy GT. Consumers are showing a thirst for performance cars not seen in decades. Ford has them coming in waves, with everything from the F-150 Raptor to a hotted-up Fusion. FCA US is unrepentantly building loads of Hellcats. GM should respond. The General's cupboard is hardly bare. With the Corvette, Camaro, and Cadillac's V-Series, GM has more than enough to compete with its crosstown rivals and anything Europe or Japan can throw at it. But there's also an opportunity. There's not many front-mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive, two-seat sports cars out there like the Opel GT concept. A Chevy GT that used that layout and captured some of the concept car's proportions and curves would ignite a different kind of passion in enthusiasts. It would be Miata-like. With Chevy branding, this sports car would be the everyday exotic. The concept has a turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine, which makes about 143 horsepower to motivate a structure that weighs less than 2,200 pounds. It can hit 60 miles per hour in less than eight seconds. All of those numbers are within the front-engined Miata's territory. This new Opel is inspired by two great mid-1960s concepts that helped put its design studio, and that of its sister brand, the British Vauxhall, on the map. (The GT concept is also technically a Vauxhall, as the brands are linked in GM's European strategy.) One of them, the '66 Vauxhall XVR remained a concept. The '65 Opel Experimental GT was on the road by 1968. That shows this is doable. There's precedent. The Saturn Sky and Pontiac Solstice shared a chassis with a modern GT during that trio's brief run. If GM ever makes this concept, Opel and Vauxhall should get their versions. But Chevy is the one that could make this car a global icon. Chevrolet GT. Make it happen. News & Analysis News: The potential return of the Ford Bronco is generating a ton of attention. Analysis: That's not news, per se. But when the Bronco6G.com fan site did a rendering of a next-generation Bronco, it almost broke the Internet. Everyone from Automotive News to Jalopnik picked up the illustrations. Our own post has drawn a lot of traffic and passionate responses. People are clamoring for the Bronco's return.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob 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.

Hot air balloons caught in high winds drag fullsize SUV

Mon, Jul 20 2015

A sudden storm front whipped up enough wind to send some hot air balloons flying into the air in Wisconsin over the weekend. One ballon proved so energetic that it was able to drag a fullsize SUV across a field and into a stand of tents. The freak accident occurred at Balloonfest in Waterford, Wisconsin. Spectators were horrified as balloons dragged handlers to the ground and launched with terrified pilots clinging to their baskets. Organizers had started packing up the colorful balloons due to ominous storm clouds when the wind kicked up. "Happened just like that; it was crazy," Nathan Fricke, crew member, told Fox 6. Winds were clocked at 40 to 50 miles per hour. A balloon caught in the wind dragged a large SUV (we think a Suburban or Yukon XL) hundreds of feet and into a cluster of tents on the edge of the staging area where balloons were on display for festival goers. Considering that the SUV surely weighs well over 5,000 pounds, it's lucky that no one was injured in the incident. News Source: Fox6Now Weird Car News Chevrolet GM GMC SUV
