 This is a freshly built truck that starts every time and can be a reliable daily driver.  I’m only selling to fund another project that I have my eyes on.  Not desperate, so not giving it away. 

 

Suspension/Steering:

  • ·         New lowering shocks
  • ·         She rides like a Cadillac!

 

Exterior:          

  • ·         New paint in 2013 - Charcoal gray metallic with red metallic stripe – really good driver quality, not show
  • ·         Side trim moldings replaced in 2013
  • ·         New chrome rear bumper
  • ·         New bumper brackets – slightly modified to bring bumper closer to bed
  • ·         New license plate bracket/light

  • ·         New Ididit tilt steering column with column shift and original steering wheel 
  • ·         In March 2014, both doors were gutted and all new components were installed:

·         New window regulators

·         New door handle relays

·         New window cranks

·         New door handles

·         New arm rests

·         Both doors/panels were lined with FatMat sound deadener

·         Truck has a modern CD player with auxillary connections, and a pair of 6”x9” speakers. 

  • ·         Brand new Auto Meter Old Tyme gauges (6 in total) in a billet gauge panel with LED turn signal and bright light indicators.  
  • ·         All factory wiring removed and a brand new EZ-Wiring harness installed in December of 2013.  Has 21-circuits with 18 fuses.  Color coded wiring.  Unused wires spooled under dash, so you can still upgrade with AC, power windows, etc with ease.
  • ·         Factory gas tank removed from behind the seat and a 1st gen mustang tank was put in the frame rails at the rear of the truck. 
  • ·         New window seals
  • ·         New door seals
  • ·         New glove box
  • ·         New rear view mirror

 

Under the hood:

  • ·         Small block 350 (91 or 92 block) with Vortec heads – block painted orange
  • ·         New Edelbrock 600CFM carb installed in January 2014 – electronic choke (tap the gas peddle once when it’s cold, starts right up)
  • ·         Edelbrock intake manifold
  • ·         Ram horn exhaust manifolds
  • ·         Freshly rebuilt 700R4 overdrive transmission installed in Feb 2014 – she’ll cruise at 70 on the highway at around 2,000 RPM’s

What does this truck need to be finished?

  • ·         Bed floor - That said, I get more people coming up to me talking about the rear frame mod’s than any other part of the truck, so it’s honestly kind of cool to have it open.
  • ·         I have the original wheel tubs and bed cross-members if the buyer wants them.
  • ·         The front inner fenders were cut to allow the truck to sit lower when laid out.  The cut-outs have not been covered, as there was a plan to go with a Porterbuilt front cross-member in the future, ultimately lowering the front down even further. 

 

I will upload additional pictures and likely a video soon.  I have pictures throughout the build, so if I missed anything, don’t hesitate to ask. 

Again, this is a very solid truck that is reliable, starts every time, and can comfortably cruise on the highway. 

 Clear TX title comes with truck.

Buyer responsible for setting up and arranging shipment, but I will be available to meet.

 Truck sold as-is, where-is with no warranty expressed or implied.

 Not currently for sale locally, however, I reserve the right to end auction at any time.

GM profits threatened by glut of pickups

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Automotive News reports that General Motors may slash production or ramp up discounts in order to deal with an oversupply of pickup trucks. GM currently has more than double the standard supply of pickups, and the vehicles are threatening to dampen the automaker's profits for 2013. Typically, automakers try to sustain a 60- to 75-day supply of vehicles, but GM is currently loaded with a 139-day supply, as of last month. At the end of November, the automaker was sitting on 245,853 units.
The manufacturer says that it will adjust production accordingly before laying any incentives on the profitable pickups. Even so, there's some concern that the inventory swell could hurt the roll-out of the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. GM actually began slowly stepping back production in August, but it's clear the company will take further action as it heads toward the end of the year and into the next. Analysts predict the automaker could reduce pickup manufacturing by nearly half in the first quarter of 2013.
That still may not be enough to keep GM from laying extra cash on the Silverado and GMC Sierra. While the company's incentive spending was down in November compared to the same month in 2011, both the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150 saw double-digit percentage increases in sales last month while the Silverado and Sierra numbers slid compared to a year prior. Incentive spending could help move more trucks and add some balance to the GM inventory surge.

Why the Corvette is Chevrolet's billion-dollar baby

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Edmunds has worked up a piece that tries to figure out just how much the global Chevrolet Corvette economy is worth, a spitballed guesstimate putting the number at more than $2.5 billion with the proviso that the number is probably low. It starts by taking Corvette's new car sales of 14,132 units last year, which would equate to $714,725,900 (including destination) assuming ever car sold was a base coupe with no options. In the final tally, a little extra padding gets that number up to $750,000,000.
But that's not all. Consider this: Many of the almost 1.4 million Corvettes produced over the model's history are still on the road. There are new parts being produced and aftermarket companies like Mid-America Motorworks deaing business, that single Illinois company doing more than $40 million a year in sales. There are the Corvette events large and small, restorers who do nothing but Corvettes, salvage yards that deal only in used Corvette parts and the Corvette magazines where owners find all this stuff.
And then there are the Corvette-themed tchotchkes, every single one of which provides a tiny contribution to the huge licensing royalties that General Motors collects every year. The article admits there's no way to come to an accurate number, but it just goes to show how valuable one specific model can be to a company.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
