1975 Chevy G-10 Shorty van. I picked up this van thinking I would turn it into a vintage/retro style carpet cleaning van. The 6 cylinder engine runs good, it was originally a 3 speed manual looking at the build sheet, now it has a TH-350 automatic. The first night I drove this home I was headed down the highway and the speedo only was reading at 45 mph, I asked my girlfriend why she was so far behind me, and she said when you hit 90 I figured you could get the ticket.....so the speedo isn't accurate at all, probably tall gears in the rearend for the manual trans and that's why it's so far off.
It leaks a little oil, probably burns a little too, I just got a brand new battery, changed the oil, put a new waterpump and radiator in it last week along with a new belt. It doesn't have power anything, manual brakes, manual steering, no A/C. I've never calculated it, but it probably does pretty good on gas. The wheels and tires are custom 17x8.5 with Toyo 255/60R17 tires, they are all the same so you can rotate them front to back. the tires have about 65% or so left and are in great shape with even wear.
The paint is original, and obviously gone on the roof. My plan was to wetsand it all out and just clear the whole thing, it would look ratty, vintage, ugly to some, but I thought it would be cool. The inside is completely gutted, the floor in the very center has surface rust, some genius put foam between a wood floor and the metal, not a big deal and it isn't rusted through. It was pretty much a hippie van when I got it, had a place for a bed and was all wrapped in a nasty blue plush velour crap..... I hauled it to the dump, you can thank me later. ick!
So, you basically a getting a nice solid, original chevy van to build or use as you desire. I don't see any reason why you couldn't fly out and drive it home. In the back you get a chevy bench seat to mount or toss, the stock wheels, and some aluminum running boards. the only thing that really needs fixed is the roof vent that was added in the back, it needs a new cover, but I'd rather see someone take it out and weld it up the way it came.
It's going to sell to the highest bidder. I just put over $200 into battery, radiator, waterpump, it has a $1500 set of wheels and tires on it, I'm setting the opening bid less than the wheels alone...... It has about a half tank of gas in it too.
Any questions, call me

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
