FACTORY K10 SHORT BED 4X4

Please read this entire add before bidding as I believe the add with the pictures will answer most questions.  I will go over the good and the bad and tell you everything I know about this truck.

Body:  The body on this truck is straight and overall solid with some rust bubbling in the lower doors and the lower fender extensions, some small spots above the drip rails and a small spot on the drivers inside rocker panel.  The rust is not horrible or rotted out.  The passenger side rocker panel was replaced.  The floor boards appear to be solid.  The bottom of the doors look nice.  The trim, chrome on the truck is nice, front bumper and grill surrounds are nice.

Paint:  As you  can see the truck is black in color and shines nicely.  This is driver quality paint, it has some checking in spots along with chips and blemishes that have been brush touched.  The paint looks good from 10 feet away and would be fine for a daily driver but in my opinion needs to be redone.

Running Gear:  The truck has the original running gear as far as I can tell to include the closed knuckle front end with power drum brakes.  I do not know what gear ratio it has.  The frame has a weld on the passenger side (See Pic), I have no idea why its there, however its a very nice clean weld.  The truck has a late model gm power steering box that was fitted to the original frame and reinforced with plate steel.

Engine and Transmission:  The engine is a 454 BBC with a mild cam, the motor sounds great with a mild lope to it, runs nice with good power.  The transmission is a turbo 350 that shifts nicely with no slipping, controlled by an aftermarket floor shifter.  I do not know the mileage on either the transmission or the engine.

Interior:  The interior is in nice shape, however needs a dash pad and the visors could use some attention and it could use a carpet kit.  The bench seat is in good shape as well.  It has a tach dash cluster that works, cd player.  All glass is in very nice condition.

Overall:  This is a great looking, rare short bed K10 4x4 with a 454 that drives down the road nice.  This truck gets Lots of attention, nearly every time I drive it someone asks me about it or complements it. 

I have listed everything I know about the vehicle, the good with the bad so please take time to look at the pictures and judge for yourself.  I encourage anyone serious about the truck to come look at it or have someone look at it prior to bidding.

I'm listing this truck for a friend who took it on trade for a Porsche he had and has since decided he wants to go in a different direction.  The truck is currently registered in CA and has a clear title in my buddies name.  Please contact me with any questions you may have, if I can answer them I will or if you would like to speak the owner I can make arrangements for that to happen.


This truck will be sold as is, where is.  If shipping is required I will do whatever I can to assist, however the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs.  

There will be a $1000.00 non refundable deposit required via paypal with in 24 hours of the auction ending.  If you can not complete this please do not bid.

I also have this truck for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction early if the truck sells locally.  

Thanks!!

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
