I am offering for sale my 1972 Chevrolet C10 big block pickup (long bed). It is factory black with the original 400 big block motor complete and untouched - even has the original smog pump in place. It still has the original 3 speed manual transmission (three on the tree). It has power brakes (disc brakes in front), rear coil suspension, manual steering, and no AC. It has all the cool patina that everybody is looking for these days. Paint is original though the tailgate may have been sprayed at some point.  Everything works . . . the original AM radio, dash gauges and lights, heater, turn signals, etc.  It has good glass all around.  Cosmetically, I installed a new dash pad and had the seat professionally reupholstered with new foam, and installed new seat belts. Mechanically, it has new rear brakes, a new Bosch battery, new windshield wipers, and runs and stops well. Tires are decent. Bed has a bed liner in it.  It does have the usual rust in the rockers, cab corners, and cab floor but it has been coated in POR-15 so there's no problem. Even with the patina, everything is clean and serviceable - heck, my wife will even ride with me in the truck.  It goes down the highway just fine.

The truck is 40 years old and does have some quirks.  The gas cap can be fidgety to get on and off.  The right turn signal indicator light in the dash doesn't always come on but the outside signals do work correctly.  I replaced all the bulbs in the dash along with the printed circuit.  The gas gauge sometimes gets squirelly . . . I did replace the gauge and the sending unit.  Heater works but the air flow isn't super strong.  The truck was missing a couple pieces of trim which I replaced.  I think that's all the bugs that I am aware of.  I'm still tinkering with these little things . . . just wanted to call them out for full disclosure.

Please know what you are bidding on.  This is a 40 year old vintage truck as described.  Do not expect a pristine, perfect paint, Barrett-Jackson truck.  Buy this truck because it's an original big block truck that has the look and runs good.

This was a one owner truck when I bought it . . . I still have some of the documents and the Bible dated 1972 that the owner kept in the glove box of the truck since new. It could (should) be somebody's daily driver.  This truck has the right look and the right patina . . . you could drive this truck for ten years and still sell it for more than you paid for it.  Title is clear and in my name.  I am happy to work with your shipper.  Thanks for looking!

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.

Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
