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!

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
