1973 GMC / Chevrolet Super Cheyenne C20 Pickup Truck PITBULL 496/600HP

1973 Chevrolet C-10 Super Cheyenne Description

THIS TRUCK IS NOT FOR THE FAINT AT HEART!!!!

AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE SOME FABULOUS CHEVY C10 TYPE TRUCKS FOR SALE ON EBAY RIGHT NOW. EACH OF THESE TRUCKS WERE OVER $60-100K+ TO BUILD.

THIS TRUCK WAS MY FAMILIES PERSONAL PROJECT FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. I HAVE A PRO RACING BACKGROUND AND A COUPLE OF TRACK RECORDS IN GT1 & SUPER PRODUCTION

THIS TRUCK WAS BUILT TO BE MY STREET TOY. THIS IS A 1973 GMC 3/4 TON TRUCK. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS CLEAR GIVEN EBAY WILL NOT ALLOW GMC/CHEVY ON THE SEARCH LINE SO IT IS LISTED UNDER CHEVY C10

NOW THAT THIS TRUCK IS 95% FINISHED, I AM DISABLED WITH CHRONIC LYMES DISEASE AND FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE.

I HAVE HAD A GREAT RUN. I HOPE THIS TRUCK CAN AND WILL GO TO SOMEONE THAT NORMALLY WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO AFFORD TO PUT THE KIND OF MONEY THAT IT WOULD TAKE TO BUILD SOMETHING LIKE THIS. IT IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION. MY COUSIN AND I HAVE DESIGNED 20 DIFFERENT CUSTOM CARS, I HAVE OVER $70K INVESTED IN THIS TRUCK

I WANTED THE BEST SINCE THIS TRUCK WAS NEVER TO BE SOLD. THE DRIVE LINE CAN STAND 800HP AS IT SITS. IT WAS GOING TO BE SET UP TO RUN NITROUS. NEVER FINISHED THE SET UP. UNDER 400 MILES ON THE MOTOR.

( Please feel free to set up an appointment to have you mechanic come and check out this truck. It has no running issues. I don't want someone to buy it and not be comfortable regarding the drive line) It is very basic Chevy hardware been around since the dawn of time. I wanted Old School Big Block TQ and simplicity.

I HAVE TO LET GO OF MATERIAL POSSESSIONS AT THIS POINT TO FACE A DIFFERENT CHALLENGE. TO THIS END, I ASK THAT IF YOU ARE NOT A SERIOUS BUYER, DO NOT ASK A TON OF CURIOUS QUESTIONS. EVERY DAY I STRUGGLE JUST TO KEEP IT TOGETHER, SO I WANT TO FOCUS ON PEOPLE THAT ARE READY TO STEP UP AND PUT DOWN THE CASH TO OWN THIS TRUCK.

I DONT WANT TO WRITE A LONG DIALOGUE, SO I WILL TRY TO EXPRESS THE MAJOR ASPECTS OF THIS TRUCK. IF YOU CANT SEE IT IN THE PHOTOS, I DOUBT IF WORDS WILL REALLY DO MUCH MORE TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND. OF COURSE FOR SERIOUS BUYERS I WILL ANSWER THE QUESTIONS REGARDING THIER INQUIRIES.

THE ENGINE IS A BUILT 496/575 HP 10.25:1 MOTOR WHICH RUNS ON PREMIUM PUMP GAS. I USE CHEVRON

UPGRADED TO HEI IGNITION &QUICK FUEL CARB FUEL PUMP AND REGULATOR

ADDED HIGH PERFORMANCE HEADERS AND CUSTOM EXHAUST WITH X PIPE AND ELECTRONIC CUT OUT VALVES

CURRENTLY. JETTED AT 76 MAINS /91 REARS IN A 850CFM QUICK FUEL CARB WHICH WORKS OUT TOA FUEL FLOW REQUIREMENT FOR 600HP EXACTLY

CUSTOM CHUCKZ TRANSMSSION (DUBLIN CA) HIGH PERFORMANCE TH400 TRANS /POSI REAR END SET UP AND HY MAG DIFF COVER

AUTOMETER GAGUES THROUGHOUT ( CENTER GAUGES ARE NOT CONNECTED JUST MOUNTED SAME WITH FUEL LEVEL)

CUSTOM FLARES BODY WORK AND FABRICATION OF ONE OFF REAR SPOILER.

CUSTOM STEREO INSTALL AND CONSOLE FABRICATION HERTZ SPEAKERS, CENTER SUBAND AMPLIFIERS ARC AUDIO EQ

This alone was over $11000 to build out. Countless combinationsgoing in and outto get the imaging and acoustics to concert hall sound with a small cavern to work with. You will just sit there without driving like you are in your living room playing with the sound.

Brake Booster Air Pump ( Because of the size of the cam it does not make a ton of vacuum and idle so this was installed to increase braking capacity).

REAR BACK UP CAMERA. CB

Rear Tow package with Electronic Brake controller

DUAL AIR HORNS

5 PT. Racing Harness and Seats

Exterminator Center Console Shifter, replacing the column shifter.

THE BUYER WILL GET HIS CHOICE OF EITHER THE OFF ROAD SET OF WHEELS AND TIRES OR THE DRAG RACING SET UP. PLS NOTE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE PHOTOS. DRAG RACE SET UP IS MUCH LOWER AND INCREASES REAR END RATIO FOR MAX ACCELERATION.

YES, IT WILL SMOKE THE OFF ROAD TIRES EVEN AT 1/4 THROTTLE. AS YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A BIG BLOCK. BECAUSE IT IS POSI EVEN MORE IMPRESSIVE.

Both stock fuel tanks have been removed to reduce weight and a 20 gallon fuel cell has been utilized to get the correct fuel volume thru a Dash-10 line

Impossible through the stock lines from tanks to get the fuel to flow correctly.

The truck has less than 400 miles since completed. I am too ill to drive it and it is just sitting in my families driveway wasting away. I have fought against giving it up but I cant make sense out of keeping it when my health is failing to this degree. Plus, it needs a nice garage and someone who is willing to do the last 5% that it needs to be 100%.

Run / Drive; unbelievable for a 3/4 ton truck. My calculations are mid 12's in the quarter mile. The drag radial set up has only been used one time.

Launches like Bull out of a corral. Has adjustable air for the rear. I have never used it because I didn't load the rear and wanted a soft rear for the best launch with weight transfer for the drag strip. Cam operating range 3000-6500RPM

Remaining work to be done mostly cosmetic. Finish gauges install. alarm is installed, needs siren connected, custom sound horn in dash needs to be powered and horn mounted.Has proximity sensors installed inrear bumper and wired, just not completed.Other odds and ends like screws I would replace to make new and shiny etc. DOES NOT INCLUDE WINDSHIELD WIPER ASSEMBLY never planed to drive in the rain, butdid coat with Rain ex

YES, YOU COULD GET IN THE TRUCK AND DRIVE IT STRAIGHT TO LA OR WHEREEVERTOMORROW WITH NO ISSUES. I ALWAYS GET

THIS QUESTIONS FOR THOSE THAT ARE PLANNING TO DRIVE IT BACK HOME.

IF YOU HAVE SERIOUS BIN PRICE OR QUESTIONS PLS (TXT ONLY) I WILL GET BACK TO YOU WHEN MY HEALTH ALLOWS ME TO ANSWER.

Thanks for all your interest. I have gotten a few questions that I thought I could clarify

1) The fuel cell is Blue anodized and is mounted in the rear bed of the truck, it has a float and a electric sensor already built in. The Auto Meter fuel level gauge in the lower dash I

believe is compatible but I do not think that I have the wiring kit that came with it. So its just the gauge.

2) I was going to mount a Innovate AFR gauge in the center hole. The Bosch 2 sensory is already mounted in the left bank of the exhaust. Complete. It is ready to be plugged into the rest of the innovate kit. ( need to purchase separately ) But the hard work of professionally mounting the O2 sensor is done.

3) THE TRUCK DOES LAUNCH VERY HARD WITH THE DRAG RADIALS AT THE CURENT PRESSURE THEY SPIN JUST A LITTLE AND GO.

4) THE SHIFTER HAS A BUTTON FOR N2O ACATIVATION BUT IT WAS NOT HOOKED UP SINCE THE N2O SYSTEM WAS NEVER INSTALLED COMPLETELY

5) THE AIR HORNS ARE ACTIVATED BY THE BLACK START BUTTON ON THE TOP SWITCH PANEL WHERE THE BACK UP CAMERA IS MOUNTED. THE STEERING WHEEL HORN IS NON FUNCTIONAL AS IS THE SHIFTER LEVEL ON THE COLUMN.

6) THE BATTERIES ARE BOTH OPTIMAS ONE RED TOP AND ONE YELLOW TOP, YOU CAN RUN THE STEREO ALL DAY IF YOU DESIRE WITHOUT STARTING THE TRUCK

7) THE ALARM WHICH IS MOSTLY INSTALLED DOES HAVE DOOR LOCKS BUT THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCK DOES NOT COME DOWN COMPLETELY SO NEED TO LOCK BY HAND. ( MY GUESS IS THAT IT IS JUST AN ADJUSTMENT)

8) THE SWITCH FOR THE EXHAUST CUT OUTS WAS MOUNTED SOMEWHAT RECENTLY AND NEEDS TO FIND A PLACE TO PERMANENT MOUNT. THE SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED BY THE X-OVER SWITCH ON THE LOWER SWITCH PANEL.

9) THERE ARE PLENTY OF AUXUILIRY POWER SOURCES LEFT ON THE SWITICH PANEL. ALL THE FRONT DRIVING LIGHTS ARE ACTIVATED BY THE TOP BLUE CENTER CONSOLE SWITCH PANEL

10) THE ELECTRIC BRAKE BOOSTER IS ACTIVAED BY THE SWITCH LABLED ZOMBIE LIGHTS ( JUST NEEDS RELABEL)

HOPEFULLY THAT ANSWERS A FEW QUESTIONS. I HAVE RECIEVED A FEW BUY IT NOW OFFERS I AM OPEN TO HEARING YOUR OFFER IS YOU WANT TO FOREGO THAT NAIL BITTER AT THE END AND LOSE THE TRUCK BY A COUPLE OF $$$.

THE PHOTOS OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE. THE LIGHTING IS VERY POOR. IT IS MUCH MORE

BRILLIANT AND IMPRESSIVE IN PERSON.

I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE GOOD GUYS TRUCK SHOW IN PLESANTON IT GOT A LOT OF EYEBALLS AND ALSO I HAD THE

STEREO PLAYING ROCK MUSIC FOR OUR ENTIRE SECTION. WITH THE SYSTEM YOU CAN PLAY LOUDLY WITH VERY LITTLE

DISTORTION. SOUNDS AMAZING. WITH THE EQ YOU CAN LOCALIZE THE SOUNDS THAT YOU WANT TO HEAR MORE PREVALENTLY

On Oct-19-17 at 00:34:03 PDT, seller added the following information:

I have had question regarding receipts. This project was over 3 years in the making. Some documents were lost in the flood from the rains early this year. However, some of the statements with the PERFORMANCE TRANSMISSION AND REAR END BUILD OUT ARE AVAILABLE. IF YOU ARE A CURRENT BIDDER OR INTEND TO BID I CAN TXT THEM TO YOU. SEND ME A TXT AT 510-203-7404 AND I WILL SHOOT THEM BACK TO YOU.

On Oct-19-17 at 21:36:19 PDT, seller added the following information:

I have a very strong need for this auction to be completed and the transaction done quickly. I have had some issues with rogue bidders in the past screwing up the auction and then not following through after winning the auction. Ebay does nothing to punish these people. What I am going to do is for bidders with over 95% feedback and 14 or more transactions. I will give a 1% discount off the final selling price. I want to incentivize people with good feedback to bid on the truck and complete the auction. If you are a new bidder pls contact me to verify whom you are and your true interest in the vehicle. 510-203-7404 txt so if it were to end at $7600 the discount to good feedback ebay people would be $76.00 off the price.

On Oct-23-17 at 11:23:54 PDT, seller added the following information:

pls do not bid if you have 0 feedback the bid will be cancelled out. I do have access to the build sheet for the HI PO TRANSMISSION AND THE POSI REAR END. JUST TXT AND I WILL SEND YOU THOSE IMAGES PLS JUST GOT THE TRUCK DETAILED SO TODAYS ACTUAL SHOTS. NOT MUCH DIFFERENT BUT JUST AVAIALBLE.
