WELL, HERE IT IS, ONE OF THE COOLEST AND UNIQUE TRUCKS IVE EVER OWNED IS UP FOR SALE. ITS A 1971 CHEVY C10 2WD PICKUP THAT HAS BEEN TOTALLY REWORKED FROM THE GROUND UP. ILL START BY SAYING THIS TRUCK IS NO THROWN TOGETHER CHEAP BUILD. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN DONE RIGHT PROFESSIONALLY AND ONLY WITH HIGH END PARTS. I HAVE A THICK BINDER FULL OF EVERYTHING DONE TO THE TRUCK. I BOUGHT IT A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO AND THE TRUCK WAS MATTE BLACK AND HAD ALREADY RECEIVED THE 5.3 LS MOTOR AND 4L60E TRANSMISSION SWAP OUT OF A NEWER TAHOE, AS WELL AS A COMPLETE OVERHAUL OF THE SUSPENSION AND STEERING COMPONENTS USING CPP PARTS, AND THE FUEL TANK HAD BEEN MOVED TO THE REAR BELOW THE BED WITH A CUSTOM FILLER IN THE BED. THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD INSTALLED THE 69-70 GRILL, WHICH I LIKED, SO I KEPT IT ON. I QUICKLY MADE UP MY MIND THAT I WANTED TO GO WITH A PATINA PAINT JOB. IT TOOK ME WEEKS OF SANDING AND TWEAKING TO GET THE RIGHT LOOK I WAS GOING AFTER AND THEN HAD A PAINT SHOP SPRAY A COAT OF SATIN CLEAR OVER THE WHOLE BODY OF THE TRUCK. THEN I ADDED THE BODY SIDE MOLDINGS TO FINISH OFF THE "FACTORY" OLD LOOK I WAS GOING FOR. AFTER GETTING THE EXTERIOR ALL LINED OUT I MOVED TO THE INTERIOR. THE POWERED BUCKET SEATS WERE ALREADY IN THE TRUCK WHEN I BOUGHT IT BUT THEY WERE A GRAY CLOTH, WHICH I DIDNT REALLY CARE FOR TO MUCH. SO, I HAD THEM REUPHOLSTERED IN BLACK LEATHER WITH HOUNDSTOOTH INSERTS. I PUT IN NEW BLACK CARPET AND A SET OF LMC KICK PANELS. THEN I TOOK IT TO A STEREO SHOP AND THEY INSTALLED A KILLER SOUND SYSTEM. I THEN REALIZED THIS TRUCK WAS GOING TO NEED AC, SO I PURCHASED AND INSTALLED THE NEWEST VINTAGE AIR SETUP. I FINISHED UP THE INTERIOR AND JUST ENJOYED THE TRUCK. ITS A BLAST TO DRIVE WHETHER ITS IN TOWN OR ON THE INTERSTATE DOING 75 MPH. EVERYTHING WORKS ON THE TRUCK, INCLUDING ALL LIGHTS AND CUSTOM CARBON FIBER GAUGES. THE TIRES ARE LIKE NEW AND THE WHEELS ARE BLACK POWDERCOATED STEEL WHEELS. THE MOTOR HAS AN LS6 CAM WITH CHROME HEADERS WHICH MAKES FOR A KILLER SOUND. I CANT GO ANYWHERE WITHOUT SOMEONE COMING UP TO ME ASKING ABOUT THE TRUCK. I WILL DEFINITELY MISS THIS TRUCK WHEN ITS GONE BUT I JUST BOUGHT MY NEWEST PROJECT, A 1969 CHEVY C10 SHORT BED 4X4, SO UNFORTUNATELY THIS ONE HAS TO GO.
GIVE ME A CALL IF YOU ARE INTERESTED. I WILL BE GLAD TO TAKE ANY OTHER PICTURES OF EVEN A VIDEO FOR SERIOUS BUYERS. MY NUMBER IS 573-587-1159 |

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow
Thu, 14 Feb 2013After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
GM Halts Sale Of Most Chevy Cruze Models
Fri, Mar 28 2014General Motors has told dealers to stop selling some 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars. But the company won't say why. Dealers say stop-sale orders are routine and almost always made to fix a safety problem. They received the order in an e-mail Thursday, but no reason was given. The move comes as GM deals with fallout from a delayed recall of 1.6 million older small cars to fix an ignition switch problem. The company says the switches can slip out of the run position and shut down the engine. That causes loss of power steering and brakes and disables air bags. GM says the problem has been linked to 31 crashes and at least a dozen deaths. Spokesman Greg Martin says he has no details on the Cruze.

These are 2014's best-selling cars and trucks
Tue, Jan 6 2015Now that 2014 is no more than a set of numbers on spreadsheets, at last, the grist mill gets its first real load to chew on. The number one selling vehicle in America last year was the Ford F-Series, a fact that should surprise you only if your family name is Van Winkle and your naps tend to last 38 years, which is how long the Ford pickup has ruled our buying landscape. Even though series sales were down 1.3 percent, it still racked up 753,851 units. That's 2,065.3 sales per day, every day, all year. The Chevrolet Silverado, up 10.3 percent for the year, was still a daylight second at 529,755 units. The cab-and-bed love continued into third place with the Ram 1500-3500 trucks, gaining 23.6-percent year-on-year to clock 439,789 units. The robust turnout at The Bighorn and Jeep helped Fiat-Chrysler increase its sales by 16 percent, past the two-million mark. Our number one car? The Toyota Camry, staying in first place with a 4.9-percent sales boost to 428,606 sales, trailed again by the Honda Accord at number five with 388,374 sales. Accord sales rose six percent, and if it's any consolation to Honda for coming in second - not that it needs one - it is the only manufacturer to have three vehicles in the top ten. The rest of the list: the Nissan Altima with 335,644 sales (+4.7%), the Honda CR-V with 355,019 (+10.2%), the Toyota Corolla/Matrix combo with 339,498 (+5.9%), the Honda Civic with 325,981 (-3.1%), and the Ford Fusion with 306,860 sales (+2.9%). Total sales for the year were up six percent to 16.5 million vehicles, a volume not seen since 2006, aided by a strong December that was up by 11 percent year-on-year. Ford was the top selling brand overall but sales didn't really budge from 2013, while Subaru rocketed up 21 percent to finish with 513,693 sales. At the precious end, BMW, Audi, Porsche and Land Rover all had record years, and Kelley Blue Book thinks we could be looking at 17 million sales for the next two or three years. Looks like it's time to start making hay again...
