This is a 1968 Chevy C/10. All original as far as I can tell. 327-4bbl, with a 4 speed /granny low. Truck did not come with power steering, but I just bought a conversion from a 1971 C/10 with power steering. I have not installed the parts yet. I just repaired the fuel system. It was getting clogged, and not running right. I changed the fuel tank, flushed the steel (frame) line, replaced all rubber sections of hose, added an in-line fuel filter before the fuel pump, added a new fuel pump, added an in-line filter after the fuel pump, and replaced the fuel filter in the carb. Now it runs fine, and hasn't given me any problems yet. It has a brand new starter, but it needs to be shimmed. It was grinding a little when I started it, so I shimmed it up a bit, and it helped but there is still a slight whining. I just replaced the heater core which was leaking, and also added a new heater control assembly which is all hooked up, but I haven't got the fan working yet. I have no power to the blower motor. I ran out of time to work on it for now, so that is how it is being listed.
The truck has a bit of rust through in a few places in the interior floor, also the kick panels, and the rockers have some rust. I have seen a lot worse than this. The good thing about this truck is the front fenders, both doors, and the box appear to be rust free. It is a custom cab with the dash intact. windows go up, and down, but need new weather stripping throughout. I put a new turn signal switch I it so now the head lights, tail lights, brake lights, turn signals are all working, but the side markers do not, and the front passenger side signal light lights up when the brake is applied. I was going to replace all the wiring if I kept the truck, but I have too many projects, and need to sell this so I can use the money towards the purchase of a dependable auto that is not a project.
The stock radio is in place, and I can hear the sound through the speakers when radio is turned on, but the antenna is broke so I can't tune in any stations. I would bet that it works, just don't know for sure. This truck could be driven as is, locally while the little issues it has are addressed, but it is still a project. I would not depend on it to get me 300 miles down the road and back just yet, but if you stay close to home until all the issues are resolved you should be fine. The truck runs good, smokes just a little at start-up, but doesn't knock, and runs smooth. I drive it to work all the time. The truck just sat for years down the street, and now I know why I never saw it driving around. It had about a dozen little problems when I got it, but I have it running, and dependable enough that it can be used locally while you work on it. It has a nice set of 6-lug slotted mag wheels 15X8 rear and 15X7 front, and a brand new set of BFG Radial T/A's. I also have a set of white spoke wheels mounted on Wild Country tires.

2014 Chevrolet Cruze TD fires up its new diesel motor
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Ever since General Motors confirmed plans to produce a diesel-powered Cruze back in 2011, we've been eagerly awaiting its arrival. And as part of the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Chevrolet has pulled back the cover on its oil-burning compact sedan, set to go on sale in the near future with a starting price of $25,695, not including $810 for destination.
The heart and soul of the Cruze TD (that's its official name) is a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline four-cylinder engine rated at 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, mated solely to a six-speed automatic transmission. The engine also has an overboost function that will increase torque to 280 lb-ft for up to ten seconds. The full brace of official specs haven't been released, but GM tells us that highway fuel economy will come in at 42 miles per gallon. If that number sounds familiar, it's because the Volkswagen Jetta TDI has the exact same rating. Unlike the Jetta, however, the Cruze TD can run on B20 biodiesel, where as the Volkswagen can only accept B5.
Model-specific changes to this 2014 Cruze TD include an aero kit and unique 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, there's a full leather interior, and Chevrolet will provide two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance, not to mention a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty.
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
