Up for sale is my 68 Chevy C-10. Great truck wife wants to start a restauraunt though. Truck runs and drives with about 170k on the odometer. Four on the floor, not column shift. Old 327 gave out years ago replaced by running 305 for now. No power brakes or power steering. Truck has quadrajet carb and runs well. Exhaust dumps out right at the Y underneath the cab = very loud truck. Fuel gauge needs new wire run, but the sending unit is new from LMC truck. Recently got all the lights and turn signals working including reverse lights. New brake light lenses for safety. Short somewhere in the instrument cluster light comes and goes I haven't found it yet. Dash hasn't been hacked on too much still spot for radio, but ignition area will need some patch work. Replaced hi-lo beam floor switch and replaced the mirrors with stock mirrors from LMC truck = better looking truck. Brakes all rebuilt front and rear with new everything except the rear drums. New master cylinder within last 150 miles. Only problem I had with the new wheel cylinders is theyre a bit different shaped in the casting and the retainer clip for the wheel cylinder bolt can't be hammered back into place. Still have the original wheel cylinders if you just want to rebuild those and run them. Haven't had a problem but the brakes need bled a little better. Truck has a New Process 435 manual granny tranny, which is kinda rare for Chevy. When I first got the truck I thought the synchro was out and first gear was kinda tall. Turns out it's meant to be un-synchronized and it's tall for towing. You actually use 2nd gear as 1st. Anyway real good transmission still going strong no issues. Bed is in saveable shape, needs some patches though. Tailgate is in pretty good shape actually worth 500 bucks alone. Truck currently is running white spokes with tires that need replaced. Would not recommend you plan on driving the truck very far on these tires. Plan on bringing your trailer if you live far away from Salina, KS. Truck had a few extra gas tanks mounted to it through the bedsides at some point in time. I cut out the rest of the old fuel system and now it just runs on the cab tank which I just cleaned out. Interior was probably originally black, been switched out with a gold color. Hood has slight dent also isn't original from that same gold truck the steering column and interior came out of. Missing glove box sticker but it's not hard telling what options it had. Truck is fairly rusty just about everywhere needs alot of patchwork done, but I have a clean and clear title in my name. The windshield wipers work. This isn't a hodgepodge truck either. Just looks like it hit a deer at one point, and someone swapped some stuff around from a gold 67-68 sometime later and then the motor went? Was parked awhile from what I was told. Always a Kansas truck too from the title I had before sending it off in my name. Needs radiator support as the animal strike has bent it a little right where the hood striker is. Floorpan is rusted good don't trust the seatbelts until new floors are installed. Also has the hard to find 67-68 front clip. Truck has never had a repaint, just literally went over with a paintbrush. Everything but the motor, hood, front clip, interior, and steering column are original to the truck with the exception of the battery tray. Buyer will receive title and keys for the truck upon payment clearing my bank. $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hrs of auction closing. Also have extra set of door locks not installed yet. Needs radiator hoses as well.

GM's European Opel division may eventually go all-electric
Wed, Feb 15 2017General Motors' Opel division in Europe may transform itself into an all-electric vehicle maker by 2030. Granted, a lot can happen between now and then, including a potential buyout by French automaker PSA Group. Regardless, Opel appears to view its electric future beyond the Ampera-e, which is the sister vehicle to the Chevrolet Bolt, and more like Tesla. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann indicated that focusing on electric drivetrains would be a superior strategy to expanding its EV technology while pushing forward with conventional drivetrains, says Automotive News Europe, citing comments Neumann made to German publication Manager Magazin. General Motors could make the decision to move towards an all-electric vehicle line for Opel as soon as May. Of course, that depends on whether Opel is bought out by PSA, the parent country to Peugeot and Citroen. PSA is in talks to buy General Motors' Opel and Vauxhall divisions, though government and labor representatives in Germany have expressed concerns over potential job losses from the proposed buyout, Reuters says. Regardless, GM has hinted at expanding its electric-vehicle line far beyond the Bolt, which has a 238-mile single-charge range and debuted late last year. Mary Barra, in an interview with CNET, said the Bolt's all-electric platform could be applied to a "huge range of vehicles," though wasn't specific about additional EV models. Opel first showed off its Ampera-e at the Paris Motor Show last fall. The name of the model raised some eyebrows because the Ampera badge had been previously used by Opel for the sister version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in. Either way, Opel is looking to take on Renault for electric-vehicle sales supremacy across the Pond. Related Video:
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
GM Recalling Another 2.7 Million Vehicles In Five Separate Campaigns
Thu, May 15 2014The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles. The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles – some of them the same models – but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago. The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents. A further 112k Corvette models from the 2005-2007 model years are being called in for problems with their low-beam headlamps resulting from a flexing relay control circuit wire that's not meant to bend. GM says it is "aware of several hundred complaints" about this issue, but notes that there have been no reports of related accidents. In addition, over 19k examples of Cadillac CTS from the 2013 and 2014 model years are being recalled over windshield wipers that might not work after a jump start. Finally, GM is also bringing in 477 examples of its 2014 Chevy Silverado, Tahoe and GMC Sierra (though not the Yukon) to fix a problem with a tie rod in its steering rack. As ever, all recall repairs will be performed free of charge, and GM is now estimating that recall-related actions this quarter will result in an estimated $200-million charge against its second-quarter earnings. Read the full announcement from GM below for further details.
