Rare 1967 Chevrolet C10 Stepside Pickup Truck:

Although this Chevrolet Stepside bodystyle era was from 1967 through 1972, the 1967 is the only year with the small back window. Also, I was told by someone who worked at the Fremont, CA factory, that this is the original 327 H.P. V-8 engine, with the smog pump. The codification in the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) shows Fremont as the manufacturing facility. Additionally, the overdrive was a very rare option that was added during time of manufacture.

This is a very solid truck, that only had only slight rust on the driver's floor rocker panel, before restoration. I located Original Equipment Manufacturing (OEM) General Motors Rocker Panels, still in original packaging, and had both rocker panels replaced prior to restoration, which included countless hours of wet-sanding, and then painted- inside and out. The paint is Cherry Pearl, with alot of pearl essence, which changes color depending on the lighting conditions, as you will see in the pictures. Everyone compliments the color and condition! Wooden bed replaced with a new Red Oak Bed Kit with Stainless Steel rails/strips. The tailgate has the Chevrolet lettering painted with White Pearl paint.

The transmission is the stock manual 3-speed on the column ("3 on the tree"). I did not want to cut the floor for a stick shift, preferring to keep it original. It came with the center piece of the left rear Centerline mag wheel missing. I had planned to change over to original wheels, to finish the look. I did not install the Chevrolet emblems and lettering on the hood, but is easy to do. These trucks have coil springs on the rear. They are great work trucks, fun to drive, and are a great piece of history.

Chevy Crossvolt name kept alive in new trademark application

Fri, Dec 26 2014

In April 2011 General Motors submitted a trademark application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the word "Crossvolt." In November of this year, the application expired for lack of a statement of use. But in August of this year, GM applied again for the same trademark, leading some to believe that it intends to apply the name to a vehicle. That vehicle could explain the mule in sliced-and-diced Chevrolet Orlando bodywork caught in several spy shots this year, theorized to be some kind of Toyota Prius V or Ford C-Max Hybrid competitor; or it could be a production version of the Chevrolet Volt MP5 concept showed off at the Beijing Motor Show in 2010, which was about the same size as the Chevy Orlando. Or it could be none of those things – but the fact that Chevrolet is keeping it current makes us believe it will be... something.

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes

Thu, Feb 5 2015

General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.

Chevrolet considering midsize crossover to slot between Traverse and Equinox

Mon, Jan 9 2017

Crossovers are the new hotness, and automakers are looking to cash in by offering a size and shape for every customer. With Chevrolet's debut of the new 2018 Traverse in Detroit, which grew ever so slightly compared to the first-generation model, there is now a midsize-crossover-sized hole between the three-row Traverse and the compact Equinox. When asked about that obvious space, a Chevrolet spokesperson told us the company is looking into the possibility of expanding its crossover lineup. It should be a relatively simple thing to do, since all it would take is reskinning and rechristening the GMC Acadia with a bow tie, and we all know how much GM loves platform sharing. Although they're now different sizes, the new Acadia and Traverse still use the same platform; the Acadia is now on a short-wheelbase version of the C1XX while the Traverse uses long-wheelbase C1XX parts. A short-wheelbase Chevy built on the C1XX likely would be differentiated visually from both the Acadia and the larger Traverse. It may seem like flooding the lineup with more and more models would cannibalize sales of existing ones, but Chevrolet said it would rather have customers stay within the brand rather than going to another automaker. There have been whispers that some form of the Blazer name (possibly TrailBlazer) may make a return on a midsizer, but if it does don't expect an old-school body-on-frame SUV like the old one. In the end, if Chevy builds it, customers will come. Related Video:
