 For sale I have my 1987 c10 swb (short wide bed)  This truck is my pride and joy but I now have a chance to restore my dream car which is a car my dad has had since he's been 21. We decided to go all out with this truck. It originally came from Texas and had the tbi 305, 700r4 and a 10 bolt. I bought the truck with just over 5000 miles on it although the title says actual its not according to the check I did after. I didn't care anyway because the truck was being built from the ground up including all new drivetrain. The title is a clear Kansas title with no liens. It now shows 6958 miles after being built with the new 383 stroker which only has just about 1000 miles. The brand new turbo 400 with a B&M shift kit and jegs xd 3800 stall has the same amount of miles as well as the brand new 12 bolt rear end with 373 richmond gears and a Detroit tru trac posi unit. The entire drive train has been gone through as well as suspension and paint. Mcgnaughtys 2.5 inch drop spindles with ground force 2 inch lowering springs lower the truck a total of 4.5 inches up front, and the bell tech drop shackle kit lowers the truck 4 inches in the rear. Traction wise the truck is equipped with cal tracs from calvert racing. Paint wise the truck is also phenomenal. The truck is black metallic and has house of Kolor flake neatly layed into the finish. You don't notice the flake unless in direct sunlight and it is beautiful. The entire truck has been shaved from front too rear. Front roll pan, shaved doors, rear roll pan, shaved tailgate and a complete custom built all steel cowl hood with built in guages. All paint and fabrication professionally done by a man with 35+ years experience. This truck draws crowds at shows and on social media. It is truly beautiful. Interior wise there are two like new leather power bucket seats. New carpet. Custom door panels, a pioneer head unit and Sony speakers, as well as a beautiful clearcoated black interior roof. The doors on the truck open with a wireless key fob from lmc. I have ALL documentation and it comes with this vehicle. This truck is completely custom and is a sight to behold. There are no other c10s out there that look like this truck.

Paint-

The paint is totally custom. It is a special candy black with a house of Kolor flake. This truck is straight as an arrow and like I said above, turns major heads. The truck at night looks completely black but you can shine a light on it and it comes to life. Same with the day time, it will look black unless the sun casts down upon it and its like a rainbow in the dark. It is so subtle its unbelievable.

If I have forgotten anything I will be sure to add it to the ad, but to really sum it up, this truck is my baby. Like I said my father has passed down his car I would love to start building and cant have both. This truck has hundreds of hours put into it, alot of money, and blood sweat and tears. It gets notoriety wherever it goes whether it is at a car show, driving down the street, sitting in the driveway or on social media. It will be featured on LMC's Website in July. This truck will make anyone happy and that's a promise. Give it a good home. I can send as many other pics as you want. I could only post 24. There are two videos below as well.

GM recalling 70k Chevy Malibus, Pontiac G6s over steering issue

Sun, Feb 15 2015

A problem with the power steering system in the Chevy Malibu and Pontiac G6 has prompted General Motors and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall for an estimated 69,633 vehicles. The issue revolves around the electric power steering assist, which could suddenly fail and increase the risk of a crash, especially at low speeds where the power steering is most helpful. The recall affects 2006-2007 Chevy Malibu sedans and Malibu Maxx wagons (specifically those manufactured between April 1, 2006, and June 30, 2006), as well as the Pontiac G6 (which was offered as a sedan, coupe or convertible) from the same model years and manufactured from April 18, 2006, to June 30, 2006. Owners of the affected units can expect to hear from the manufacturer with instructions to bring in their vehicles to their local dealers to have the torque sensors in the power steering system replaced. RECALL Subject : Sudden Loss of Electric Power Steering , 1 INVESTIGATION(S) Report Receipt Date: FEB 04, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V064000 Component(s): STEERING Potential Number of Units Affected: 69,633 Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2006-2007 Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx vehicles manufactured April 1, 2006, to June 30, 2006, and 2006-2007 Pontiac G6 vehicles manufactured April 18, 2006, to June 30, 2006. In the affected vehicles, there may be a sudden loss of electric power steering (EPS) assist that could occur at any time while driving. CONSEQUENCE: If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the torque sensor assembly, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020 or Pontiac customer service at 1-800-762-2737. GM's number for this recall is 14772. Note: This is an expansion of recall 14V-153 to cover additional vehicles built between April 1, 2006 and June 30, 2006. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Top Gear names BMW i8 Car of the Year, Corvette, Ferrari, Mercedes also win big

Fri, Dec 5 2014

The lads at Top Gear have released their listing of the finest cars of the past year, handing the ultimate honor to BMW's revolutionary i8 plug-in-hybrid supercar. "The i8 is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers - and then some," the British mag wrote. The i8, though, was far from the only hybridized car to take victories. James May and Richard Hammond both highlighted hybrids as their personal cars of the year, with May saluting the Ferrari LaFerrari and the Hamster, unsurprisingly, heaping praise on the Porsche 918 Spyder. Jeremy Clarkson, meanwhile, opted to shock many by selecting not only an American car as his best of 2014, but giving the honor to of all things, a Corvette. Clarkson wasn't the only person to honor the USA's iconic sports car, with the new, 650-horsepower Z06 variant being named TG's Muscle Car of the Year. Other big winners include Mercedes-Benz, which TG honored for S-Class Coupe (Luxury Car of the Year), the new AMG GT (Sports Car of the Year) and the not-for-US C-Class Estate (Family Car of the Year). The 458 Italia Speciale A snagged a second win for Ferrari. The best of the rest include the Citroen C4 Cactus, Renault Twingo, Volkswagen Golf R, Lamborghini Huracan and Audi TT. Take a look below for the celebratory press blast from BMW. The BMW i8 wins Top Gear Car of the Year The BMW i8 has been named as Top Gear magazine's global Car of the Year 2014. The plug-in hybrid performance vehicle beat off some stiff competition from a host of other premium and luxury manufacturers to win the overall award. The editorial team of Top Gear commended the BMW i8 for its breadth of abilities. Its 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine combined with an electric motor gives searing acceleration and driver enjoyment but all wrapped in a package that takes BMW's EfficientDynamics philosophy to the extreme courtesy of CO2 emissions less than 49g/km and a 135mpg combined cycle figure. Charlie Turner, Editor in Chief at Top Gear magazine, said: "The BMW is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers – and then some. It's the kind of car we should celebrate, a beautiful vision of the future, delivered now.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
