Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my auction.  First of all, I have a vehicle history report on this truck that I would be more than happy to forward this, by e-mail, at your request.  I think it's a waste of money to give the "Big Guys" $30 or $40 bucks for this same report.  I can forward to you my username and password so you can access the full, detailed report from VehicleHistoryRecord.com  Simply send me your e-mail address.  I have the clear title in my name and it is ready to sign over to the new owner. 

You are bidding on a 2002 Chevy Avalanche SUV/Truck.  It has a 5.3 Liter engine which runs strong and the transmission shifts smoothly.  The engine only has 155K on it, so that's not bad at all.  It has heated seats which feels great in the winter, cruise control, power locks and windows, AM-FM CD player!!  I purchased this vehicle recently, thinking I would have the time to put into it and make it the sort of truck I know it can be cosmetically.  Turns out that I really don't have the time for it nor the extra cash to do the job right, considering it's so close to Christmas.     

The guy who I bought it from told me he had hit a deer in the front not long ago.  You can see from the pics as to what is needed.  There is a "Service 4wd" light that is on in the dash.......so, it currently runs in 2wd only. He told me the interior 4wd switch was bad.  I did notice that it did not light up as it should when you pressed the buttons, so you be the judge. "ABS" light is also on.....probably because the brakes need bled. The tires are in great shape and I have a full sized spare that comes with the purchase.  I think it will need a ball joint and possibly a wheel bearing on the right front.  The brakes are cautiously adequate for a short distance drive in light traffic, but need to be bled properly to be totally safe.  I have driven the vehicle about 50 miles since I bought it and I was impressed with the engine and tranny. You can see from the pictures what it needs, so look at them and decide for yourself.  If you win this auction, to be on the safe side, I would load it onto a trailer.  Rather be safe than sorry.  The rear tailgate needs a new handle. So, I took an interior pic of the bed from behind the rear seats.  The bed looked fine.  There is a dent in the rear bumper.  If you put some work in the exterior, I think this would make a very fine looking vehicle.  The drive train is excellent. 

I am calling this a "project vehicle" and the winner of this auction must understand that this Avalanche is strictly sold "AS IS".  I am starting off the bidding at a VERY, VERY low price.  Tonight, I went to NADAguides.com and entered this vehicle with all of the options, leather seats, Z-71 package, towing, etc. The average trade on this truck is $6575 AND the Rough Trade value is:  $5425.   

If you have any questions, feel free to send me an e-mail.  Thanks again for looking & Merry Christmas to all.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4

Wed, 29 May 2013

Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
