Actual Survivor In Great Shape on 2040-cars
Ottawa, Illinois, United States
|
Up for your consideration is a 1972 Chevrolet custom deluxe c-10 this is a two owner, original survivor with authentic patina...the real deal! The truck was originally sold from Zscheile Motor Company at Burlington Kansas The truck still comes with the original dealer imprint plate! Very rare... along with the warranty info /emissions booklet/ and owners manual...all original! This truck is 90 % stock and untouched... The tires are not original, tailgate was replaced, along with some parts under the hood... The original rims, carburetor, wires, points distributor, and air cleaner are available if you are interested in the parts. the carb ,distributor wires, and air cleaner assembly where replaced with newer higher performance parts. (I have the originals in a box) The motor is completely stock and is the 4bolt main and higher compression engine...it requires the 91 octane or higher...still has the original diagnostic sticker to prove it! The motor runs excellent and strong. The trans was refreshed but is the original trans to the truck. shifts strong with no issues, very dependable. the rest of the drive train and suspension is all original and in excellent working order. the truck also has the rear leaf suspension and is very tight, not the wore out money pit of the trailing arm style! The truck has newer dual exhaust with new performance mufflers all in great shape Has new brakes up front, calipers were restored along with the original front rotors The rear brakes are new and the drums are original to the truck, all in great shape\ All the brake lines and fuel lines are in great shape The frame of the truck is in good shape and solid The body is all original and shows authentic patina and wear over the years... this is what is hot now. The real deal! a survivor...a natural not made to look like it is one... priceless originality.... The only rust issues the truck has, is the inside of the bed around the wheel wells and back by the tailgate do have rust that could be repaired and the natural patina of the truck wouldn't be harmed, the rust is on the inside and wouldn't interfere with the exterior look. There is rust on the lower drivers side door but fits the look of the truck... clear coat it to protect it and have the original look. guys are paying big bucks to have this look done. The truck starts, runs, steers, and stops excellent, it is fun and easy to drive.... turns all kinds of heads and is conversation piece at your stops. Very cool truck with no issues, jump in and drive it next spring... or do your custom tweaks during the winter and have it the way you want it come spring! Some one started to put in vintage a/c and didn't finish... I haven't removed it yet. you can either finish it or remove for the complete stock look. The only reason I am selling the truck...I actually bought it for my dad two years ago... worked on everything to make it easy to drive/safe/ and dependable.... and tried to give it to him as a surprise gift...( his favorite truck 30-some years ago was a 1972 that looked just like this one) but he told me he wasn't in to it anymore the love for the old truck was gone... I was pretty shocked... but anyway... I am finally going to sell it now... hopefully it will go to someone who has a passion for it... and will drive and enjoy it. Thanks for looking
Now for the legal crap Clear title in hand....ready to go no warranty cash in person or a bank to bank transfer I'm not going to deliver it to you for a reasonable price so don't ask. hire a company. I will only be involved to watch it be loaded out and hand the hauler the paperwork...(once the truck has been paid in full) NO LOWBALLERS OR TIRE KICKERS deposit of 250 due in 24hrs through paypal If you need to let it set here that's ok, but it will be agreed upon before end of auction and you will pay for the entire truck first. if it sits here past the agreed date I reserve the right to resell it... I reserve the right to end the auction early, (for sale locally) If you have reasonable questions: send and email and be patient for me to reply...I don't check email every day

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite
Mon, 21 Jan 2013Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
