82 Chevy C-10 Short Bed Box Rust Free Original 1982 C10 Great Street Rod Lowmile on 2040-cars
Clarksville, Iowa, United States
Ok, I will try and not ramble. I just want to pretend as if I'm the buyer looking for the information to help me best make a decision on the purchase price. I purchased this truck because it was rust free other than a spot behind the rear passenger wheel that is minor and very common on these trucks. This truck came from Arkansas for it's entire life until 2012. The frame is not pitted and the floor and all other body parts are rust free. This is an exceptional find in the midwest! It has a very sound 350 with a mild cam and a 4 barrel carb. The engine is responsive and will chirp the tires when shifting from 1st to 2nd because of the shift kit in the th350 transmission. The brakes work great. The truck starts and runs like it should. The exhaust doesn't leak even with headers. The exhaust tips are ugly, other than that the dual exhaust is good. The rear end is quiet. I believe it has 3:08 gears which would be good for mileage. I don't have a clue what it gets for mileage. The pictures tell the rest of the picture.
This truck was going to be a street rod project. I am including with the sale of this truck some parts that cost me over $1,000 dollars to purchase. I have a lowering kit that includes the drop spindles for the front, the rear lowering shocks, and the new spring perches for the axle flip. This would drop the truck about 6" with a coil cut in the front springs. Nothing else would need to be purchased to finish this job. The front shocks are like new and are not changed when lowering with the lowering spindles. I am also including a 2" cowl hood!! This hood was over $400 and is painted black. I also am including a complete $250 full set of window felt and door seals, weather stripping etc. I also purchased some very nice seats from a 92 chevy that fit really well in this square body truck. The truck has brand new Goodyear Eagle ST tires with the nubs still on them! I am also including two spares with good rally wheels. I am going to miss this truck and will kick myself when I go to try and replace it someday. It is really hard to find a rust free truck like this in the midwest. I bought a new Jeep and don't have space for both this and the Jeep. This truck is ready to drive wherever you want, or start stripping it down and get ready for paint or your street rod drag truck project. It is a great candidate for whatever you are looking to do. The frame and underside is in such great condition, it will be easy to work on or modify. I also have but am not including, a fully built Dana 44 posi rear end that is set up for this truck. It is ready to bolt right in. It came out of another 82 short box that was run down the local track a couple passes, and then was swapped out for a daily driver rear end. I would sell this for the right price and help you load it up in the truck when you pick this up. I also have a th400 tranny that is good that I would part with. I also have for the right offer, a very solid 406 sbc and a four core radiator. The 406 has a .480 Isky cam with solid lifters. It has some head work done to it and comes with new intake, carb, headers, and valve covers. Let me know if you areinterested in any of these. Maybe we can work out a deal. Maybe not. Please call me with any questions. My number is 319-231-8974. Thanks for looking. I priced this truck according to trucks that are similar that HAVE SOLD on Ebay, not based on what people are asking. It is a low mile truck that has a ton of potential. On May-21-14 at 04:31:56 PDT, seller added the following information: The Dana 44 that I am selling has 4.10 posi gears in it. I have the title in hand. Please feel free to call or text me with any questions as well. I am not advertising this truck locally at this point. It will sell right here on Ebay. I will work with any shipping company you choose to use. Have a great day! On May-21-14 at 04:36:51 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to mention that the air cleaner in the picture is one that i had on another car. I put this on to tune the carb for easy access. It does need a new filter....this one is really ugly, like someone sat on it ugly. |

Best cars for snow and ice in 2023 and 2024
Tue, Jan 23 2024What's the best car for snow? The real answer is "the one with winter tires." What do we mean by that? You could have the finest, most advanced all-wheel-drive system or four-wheel drive in the world, but if you're running all-seasons (the spork of tires), your fancy four-wheeler won't matter much. The odds are, any vehicle on the road running good winter tires will probably perform adequately in slippery, slushy and/or snowy road conditions. (Here's a more complete explanation of why winter tires are totally worth it). In other words, you don't really need any of the cars on this list. With a set of winter tires, countless others will do the job, and even these will be at their best with proper rubber. You can find a variety of winter tires for your car here at Tire Rack. Keep in mind that you will need a full set of four snow tires for safety and performance, no matter what you're driving. The days of your dad putting just two snows on the family truckster to get it moving in a straight line are long gone. Don't get us wrong, getting a car that performs well in snow and ice is still a worthy criteria for car buyers. According to the U.S. Transportation Department, 70% of Americans live in places that get snow and ice. And much of the country has been blasted with arctic air for much of the new year. So let's look at the cars. First, we're highlighting choices for a variety of buyers and price points. Second, we're not just considering snow; we're considering general wintery conditions people will experience driving to work or school. As such, these are all choices with advanced all-wheel-drive systems, usually with "torque-vectoring" systems that not only automatically shunt power front and back, but side to side between the rear axles. Most have extra ground clearance for getting through deep snow, and we prefer those vehicles with more responsive steering, throttles and transmissions that provide a greater sense of vehicle control in slippery conditions.  Acura RDX Read our Acura RDX Review Acura's Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive system was one of the first to offer torque-vectoring, and besides often being touted for its ability to greatly enhanced dry-road handling, its benefits in the slick stuff can be profound. It's actually surprising that Acura hasn't leaned into this capability further by offering more rugged versions of its vehicles.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
Chevy Bolt will go into production in Michigan in 2016 [UPDATE]
Fri, Feb 6 2015While nothing official has been announced, it appears that General Motors may actually put the all-electric Chevy Bolt into production next year. That's the rumor that Reuters is reporting, citing two sources at suppliers for the upcoming $30,000 EV (although that $30,000 number bears some scrutiny). This rumor does fit in with earlier comments that the Bolt would arrive on the market in 2017. If it gets built, the Bolt will share more than a similar-sounding name with the Chevy Volt: the EV will be put together in metro Detroit. Reuters says the 200-mile electric car (and an Opel version) will be made in "an underused small-car plant north of Detroit," which means the Orion Township plant. GM could make between 25,000 and 30,000 Bolts a year there, if what the suppliers are saying is true. We have asked GM for a statement on this story and will update it if we hear back. UPDATE: General Motors manager of electrification technology communications, Kevin Kelly, told AutoblogGreen that, "Bolt EV Concept is just that – a concept. We're currently evaluating the vehicle program, but do not have any production announcements to make at this time."
