This unfinished 1968 Chevrolet C10 is amazing: the perfect stance, the perfect color, a powerful drivetrain, and a great price. This is one of the most desirable vehicles in the hottest segment of the old car hobby right now, you really need to put this slick pickup in your garage immediately. With just a glance you can see that the Sunset Pearl paint on this pickup is astounding. All paint and body work was completed by Auto Artistry of Russell, KS. The reflections are a mile deep in the beautifully buffed and polished surface. It certainly helps that the steel underneath is in good order, including completely refurbished bed, whose bulging fenders give the pickup a muscular, sporty look. Panel alignment is quite good throughout, suggesting a lot of extra hours spent getting everything to fit just right, something you don't often see in vehicles that are this affordable. It has been customized and shaved in many ways, so it has an subtle custom look, right down to the shaved factory marker lights and shiny chrome bumpers. Drop the brightly painted and smoothed tailgate ad you'll find fresh oak planks that glow with a honey-colored varnish, a wonderful complement to the Sunset Pearl bodywork. The subtly modified factory grille is in excellent shape, it looks aggressive without being obvious about it. It just looks right. Nothing too radical going on inside, just more expertly finished work to create a truck that's probably better than new. The factory bench has been replaced with triple tan leather covered bucket seats with door panels and a dashboard to match. Factory instruments are used for viewing oil pressure, temperature, and voltage, as well as a factory tachometer nestled into the center where it should be. This is not your garden-variety pickup truck. The factory stereo location has been retrofitted with controls for the vintage air conditioning unit. The stereo head unit in the dash was relocated to the where the original heater controls were. The install has a nice OEM look to it and sounds a lot better than the crackling original AM radio and once finished installing the A/C it would stay pleasant inside even on the hottest days. Thanks to a sellers mildly built motor, this truck runs and drives superbly. Topped by a 4-barrel carburetor and a third generation Z28 aluminum intake, the 350 cubic inch V8 starts easily and burbles away like a muscle car. The engine bay is quite neat and tidy, with good service access and lots of new equipment, including a modern alternator, new master cylinder, and a few dress-up components to make it look good. It's backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission built by Phoenix Transmissions of Weatherford, TX so it's a blast to drive and gets decent mileage, and you'll never get tired of the burly exhaust system's soundtrack. The suspension is a temporarily installed air ride, giving it a sporty rake, comfortable ride and just the right stance on those fat 255/35/20 radials and shiny Boss wheels. Beautifully finished with a sizeable investment in the hardware, this is a no short-cuts pickup that runs and drives just as well as it looks. This truck is also for sale locally and seller reserves the right to remove this truck from this auction any time without further notice.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
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...

Bentley Continental GT V8 and Toyota 4Runner | Autoblog Podcast #604
Fri, Nov 15 2019In this week's Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski and Senior Editor, Green, John Beltz Snyder. First, they talk about driving the 2020 Bentley Continental GT V8 First Edition, followed by the 2020 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road. Then they revive a format called "This or That," discussing the Jeep Wrangler vs. Gladiator, Subaru Forester vs. Outback, Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger, and whether they'd rather spend $25,000 on a new or vintage car. They've got an update on a previous Spend My Money segment, and, finally, they help another listener pick a daily driver.
