Polk City, Florida, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : rearwwahner@irishhome.net .
1971 Chevrolet C-10 Shortbed Fleetside Pick-Up, this truck is an older Frame Off Restoration. The odometer reads
20,750 which I believe are the miles it has been driven since the Restoration. I just put new 20" Staggered
American Racing Wheels, 8" front and 10" rear with new Toyo Proxie Tires. Truck has awesome adjustable Air Ride
Suspension with dual Viair Compressors (Made in the USA not China junk) and Classic Performance Products Trailing
Arms. The stock springs and shocks go with the truck. The truck has great options like Black Factory Bucket Seats
and Console, Cold Air Condition, Power Steering with Custom Steering Wheel, Power Brakes that have been upgraded to
4 Wheel Discs from Classic Performance Products and stop Awesome, Factory AM/FM Radio in the Dash, Custom Headliner
with built-in Sound System with Boss Stereo Radio and MP3 with built-in Speakers. Custom Ventless Side Windows with
Tinted Glass, Chrome factory front Grille, Chrome Bumpers, Factory Gauges including a Rare Tachometer which works
perfectly, LED Headlights and Taillights, a custom Aluminum 21 Gallon Fuel with an accurate gauge! Tank has been
added to under the bed so there is no fuel in the cab, the newer 383cid 4 bolt engine has been upgraded with an
Edlebrock Performer Aluminum Intake with a 750 Holley Carb, MSD Electronic Ignition, Gear Drive (sounds great),
Mild Performance Camshaft and a set of Dynomax Headers with Flomaster mufflers that sound perfect...I believe its
approx. 350hp, has great low end torque. The Transmission is a GM 700R4 automatic with Overdrive and the rear is
the Factory 12 Bolt and I believe they are 3:70's, she cruises 70 @ 2250 effortless. The stock cooling system was
upgraded with an electric fan, truck runs cool with A/C on in traffic on 90 degree South Florida weather... Truck
is dialed-in..... runs great in gear at idle with Air on even with the Cam... A lot of these older vehicles look
good but are not dialed-in, this truck could be a daily driver if you chose. Horn works, wipers work, all the
Factory Gauges work, Temp Gauge, Oil Pressure Gauge, and the Fuel Gauge. The Body and Bed are strait and rust free
and painted in Gorgeous Tuxedo Black. The paint is Killer as is the whole truck.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
