I had to list it as a C-10 because ebay does not give a C-20 option.  

Let's keep this as short as possible:

If you are looking for a resto-modified, lowered, lifted, color-changed, leathered-up, blinged-out pick-up with 24" chrome wheels and a stereo more powerful than the engine........... this is NOT your truck.

But if you are searching for a mostly original, unaltered, unabused, classic Chevy C-20, than you are looking at the right pick-up.

What we have here is an honest 1972 C-20 with a factory big block and WORKING factory A/C. 
It originated in dry Eastern Washington and was used to haul around a pick-up Camper. That's the reason why it is equipped with front stabilizer, rear suspension leaf springs, heavy duty front shocks and camper mirrors. It also has two extra tanks on each side of the truck bed.

It is medium olive metallic with a white top. It was repainted many years ago and the paint still shows very nicely.
There is absolutely no rust on this truck and the rocker panels, cab corners and the truck bed are in excellent condition.
I added the brackets for a DrawTite 5th wheel hitch, but I never used it. The complete hitch assembly comes with the truck.

The interior is olive cloth and it was reupholstered with the original material about a year ago. It is like new again.

The dash has one very small crack (about 1 cm long).

The original green rubber floor shows some wear on the driver side.

The right door panel seems to be a darker green (instead of the olive green) and shows some scuffs.

There are a couple of small dents on the right door where the mirror is attached.

A tachometer was added to the steering column and it works.

The orig. AM radio is completely intact and plays fine.

A/C was just completely rebuilt, using the orig. housing of the compressor, and refilled with R12. It is freezing cold.

Since I collect mainly European classic cars, my in-depth knowledge about classic Chevrolets is unfortunately not great. 

What I can tell you though, the power and the sound of this monster is unbelievable.
It has hooker headers, a "mild" cam and flowmasters.  It is the perfect "sleeper" truck.
It looks like the engine was rebuilt, since it runs absolutely flawlessly.
The Turbo 400 transmission also works perfectly.

This truck needs nothing and has no issues.  I would not hesitate to drive it across country if the cost of fuel was not a factor. LOL.
It has a clear Washington title in my name with 1972 YOM (year of manufacture) plates  which can stay with the truck.
It is smog exempt in California and most, if not all, other states.

Buttomline, it is 41 years old, has aged gracefully and brings a smile to your face every time you drive it. 

No warranties expressed or implied.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
