Greetings,

I bought this truck at the Mecum Kissimmee Auction in January, 2012. The paperwork I received at auction stated it had a frame off restoration in 2008. I drove it home to Charleston, SC after auction....400 miles with no issues. It's always been a very good running machine and I've done several key upgrades since for safety and reliability. If you've ever restored one of these trucks, you know how expensive it can be. I never skimped on parts as you will see below. I will make it as brief as possible but I want you to know what you are getting if you choose to buy my truck. In SC, you must have AC. This truck has a aftermarket unit that works and blows very cold. Also has a working heater.

BRAKE UPGRADE:

Parts bill from this alone was $1231 ( have receipt) all parts are easily replaced should/when they wear out.

Purchased from Performance Online out of California

1963-70 6 lug stock spindle disc brake wheel kit (deluxe)

Cross drill and gas slot upgrade

Braided stainless brake hose upgrade to 10mm with a GM Caliper

Power brake booster kit 11" disc fronts. drum rear(rebuilt)

New brake proportioning valve

IGNITION UPGRADE:

All MSD to include MSD 6AL / MSD coil and distributor as well as spark plug wires. Carb was rebuilt and jetted when ignition was done by experienced Chevy mechanic who also races at local tracks. Truck fires right up and runs perfect with a "just right"rumble that you would want and expect.

STEERING UPGRADE:

Installed chrome IdidIt column shift with TILT ($421). New Grant wheel (signals and horn function)

COOLING upgrade:

American Radiator with two 1" cores. Dual fans. Keeps truck running at no greater than 190 Degrees even at 95 degrees here in Charleston.

Miscellaneous: performed in 2008

Truck has aftermarket headers with new aluminum gaskets(2012) and true dual flow master exhausts.

New gas tank was installed in stock position.

Just replaced the rear main seal (June2013) and I have a total replacement seal kit from Summit that will go to new owner so you have that covered down the road. Also replaced the oil pan(orange stock) and transmission pan (chrome) and their respective seals. Rear differential was serviced last year with new cover (chrome) fluid and seal. Has 3.73 gears.

Almost forgot- Installed a 3 pt. seatbelt for driver and passenger from LMC Truck.

Truck starts/runs/drives/stops as it should. The front brakes do squeak a bit when they get hot. You might eliminate this with a different shoe compound- these came with performance kit. Truck stops straight and true as is.

All hoses are good, top hose was replaced when I put in radiator.

The cab and the bed floor are original. All other fenders and tailgate are replacements. There is a tiny bit of surface rust on passenger side interior door frame that is starting....about the size of two quarters. It will need attention at some point but again, it has just started and is very minor.

If you have any questions, please ask.

This is a turnkey truck. I put it in one show and it won a trophy locally. It's not absolutely perfect but it is very nice and something you can get in and drive and be very proud of for years to come. It does get admiring looks and thumbs up whenever I drive. The velocity yellow paint has a terrific shine and really fits a short bed muscle era truck. Speaking of muscle, this C10 will flat out get up and go! Ive never abused it, but I do enjoy the sound and the acceleration it provides for a bit of a thrill from time to time. It is tuned and ready with synthetic oil and non ethanol premium gasoline. I also use a zinc additive when changing oil just for longevity of internal parts. I am selling because I am building a cabin in Western NC and I need the liquidity. I've enjoyed it and you will too.

Of course there is no warranty on something of this age. It is sold as is but I believe you could drive it just about anywhere if you wanted to.

I have a 100% Ebay rating and have sold 3 vehicles over the years on Ebay including a 2011 Cadillac CTSV that I drove to Utah for the buyer! I've had pleasant experiences on eBay and I am a nice man but please don't waste our time if you are not a serious buyer or do not have the funds to complete transaction. I will report non-paying bidders to eBay.

I expect a $500 non refundable deposit within 24 hours of auction close. I can store truck in my garage for 30 days until you or your shipper comes to get it. It must be paid in full for me to store.

I will entertain reasonable offers. If you are out of USA, I would gladly drive truck to one of the ports here in Charleston to be shipped to you. (Buyer pays for actual shipping) The first vehicle I sold on eBay went to Holland!

Thanks for looking at my auction!

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia

Fri, Jan 16 2015

These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.

Which of these five plug-ins should win the 2017 Green Car of the Year?

Tue, Nov 8 2016

It's going to be a competitive race for the 2017 Green Car Of The Year. With a minivan in the running for the first time in ages, the five finalists announced by Green Car Journal today include five very different plug-in vehicles. As Ron Cogan, the editor and publisher of Green Car Journal, said in a statement, "electrification is now considered by most automakers an essential technology for current and future high-efficiency models." Let's check out the list: Toyota Prius Prime, the updated plug-in version of the world's best-selling hybrid. Chevy Bolt, GM's all-new entry into the long-range EV game. Chrysler Pacifica, a family hauler with the ability to go 30 miles on electric power. Kia Optima. The nomination is for the full line-up, but really the hybrid and plug-in hybrid models are the green stars here. BMW 330e iPerformance, one of the automaker's many new plug-in hybrids that bring battery power to models outside the i sub-brand. Green Car Journal will announce the winners at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17th, along with some, "other green transportation announcements," whatever that means. Last year, the winner was the 2016 Chevy Volt, the first model to snatch up two wins. Which do you think should win this year?
