1970 Chevy C30 One Ton 454 Sling Wrecker
I purchased this truck out of a small town in Nebraska, swapped in the 454 engine, got it running and performing well, and have used it for the past year for towing at my auto shop.
Originally a 350 small block, now with a 1985 454 big block, Holley 1407 Carb, Hi-Flow fuel pump, Headers and true dual exhaust pipes. Making ~400 HP
This is designed with the correct cam to tow, not to rev high. It is very usable horsepower.
4 Speed manual transmission, recent clutch, new linkage/bushings/rods custom fabricated to fit this motor in this truck. Transmission has granny gear
Good wheel bearings/hubs/tie rod ends. Runs and drives fine. Doesn't overheat.
Just cleaned up the interior significantly. Cleaned entire cab and painted floors with bedliner/ rust inhibiting. There are NO major rust concerns on this truck. It spent it's life in Wyoming Nebraska and Colorado and the frame looks great. Minor rust peeling the paint on the bed, nothing more.
I have the original door panels/ arm rests/ window and door cranks/ etc. They are not pictured below.
Tow setup works perfectly. Both levers work, one for clutch, the other for winch in/out and boom up/down. 150' of cable, cable in good useable shape, recently rewound it all and ensured it wound properly. Rubber still in good shape on sling.
Ready to start towing today.
This truck is a classic, and still in good enough shape to be made show worthy/ very UN molested. No dash cutting no garbage, NO MAJOR RUST.
For sale is Denver, Colorado
(303)-919-7769
Happy to answer any questions or show truck at any time.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
