1983 Chevy Sierra C1500 Lifted on 2040-cars

You are viewing a 1983 Chevy Sierra C1500 truck with a 4 speed transmission. It has a 6 inch suspension lift and 35 inch tires. I honestly don't know a lot about the truck. I have an apartment building and I took it in trade for rent that was owed to me. It's in fairly good condition for it's age. It has many new parts on it...tires, brakes, wheel cylinders, shocks and exhaust. I just had it PA inspected and it passed with no problems. There is some damage and a large dent on the rear of the passenger quarter panel. The rocker panel on the driver side has rust and the cab corner on the driver side has a small hole. All 3 of these issues are an easy fix for anyone with experience in body work. All the typical spots for rust/rot like the frame, underside of body and inner fenders are all in solid shape. This truck will be sold WITHOUT the engine, however it could be purchased with engine if discussed. The trans, clutch, truck, and everything will be intact. The only thing I will be keeping is the engine, which is a 425 hp 383 stroker with $3,800 worth of documented work done to it. It is currently in the truck and running...if you would like the engine included and we can come to an agreement, I would be willing to sell the truck with the engine included. There is only about 500 miles on this engine. I can assist with delivery if needed, within 100 miles, but you must make arrangements before the auction ends and the vehicle must be paid in full. This truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. I am willing to consider some full or partial trades but please...no garbage. Any questions...feel free to ask. Good luck and happy bidding!

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.

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
