You are bidding on my 1988 Chevrolet c 1500 pickup.  this truck has served me well for the past 3 years and i have taken this to many shows from St. Ignace to Woodward.  i was planning on taking it on the hot rod power tour this year but since i had hit some hard times i have decided to sell her.  i have used her to go to work from Chicago and back many of times without any hassles. i not only used this truck for show but for work as well. so here what she has on her so far.


the truck currently has 155000 miles on her.  i have a list of 600 dollars in parts that i put into the truck which includes putting in an alternator, new starter, power steering pump, water pump, new ignition module, new rotor, and distributor and new lower ball joints.  the truck runs strong and the transmission shifts smooth.  but there are some things that it needs due to the age of the truck.  but is minor things that need to be done to make it perfect.  This truck has a lot of customization done to it also including being correctly lowered 2 inches in the front and 3 inches in the back with drop spindles, 2 inch lowered springs , and sport truck gas shocks all the way around. it has a fiberglass roll pan for a rear bumper, and a painted front bumper.  this truck also has a 98 front clip on the front including a green illuminated bow-tie in the grille.  there is a hard tonneau cover on the box as well as a bedrug carpet and altezza taillights.  the truck also has the SS 454 bucket seats and center console for the interior. 

firstly, the body mounts for the cab and the box need to be replaced, secondly the shocks need to be changed out due to the loss of gas in them, it does need a set of tires as well.  the cruise control switch has broke of the turn signal switch and needs to be replaced as well but the cruise control still works. the AC also needs to be recharged. not to mention i had a careless driver in a Walmart parking lot bump into my grille and leave. needing a new grille, as well as some bodywork due to miscellaneous dents and rust.  but other than that this truck is ready for work or play or if you want a running driving project truck to take to car shows. it is all up to you.:) 

The reserve is way lower than the buy it now price so rest assured you can own this at a very affordable rate.  i also have a second set of wheels for the truck for 300 bucks if you are interested.:)

i hate to see her go but i have to make room in my garage for my new business.  but my loss is your gain.  now if you want me to deliver her to you i  can do that for 1.75 cents a mile.  i also have the right to end the auction early cause it is for sale locally.  if you have any questions you can get a hold of me at 989 513 4237 and ask for Ethan. or if you want to email me your questions then i'll be more than happy to answer them for you.

2016 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon recalled for opening console lids

Mon, Dec 28 2015

The Basics: General Motors is recalling 9,200 examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado with build dates between August 25, 2015 and September 24, 2015, and the 2016 GMC Canyon manufactured from August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. In total, 8,763 of these pickups are in the US, and the rest are in Canada or Mexico. The Problem: The console compartment lid could open in a crash, and the items inside the storage compartment might hit occupants during the accident. This fault puts the pickups out of compliance with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The fix: Dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly with an improved part. If you own one: GM has not yet told NHTSA when the repairs for these pickups begin. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Console Door may not Fully Latch/FMVSS 201 Report Receipt Date: DEC 01, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V807000 Component(s): LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES Potential Number of Units Affected: 8,763 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle MakeModelModel Year(s) CHEVROLET COLORADO 2016 GMC CANYON 2016 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2016 Chevrolet Colorado trucks manufactured August 25, 2015 to September 24, 2015, and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. The affected vehicles have a console compartment lid latch assembly that may fail to keep the compartment door closed in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 201, "Occupant Protection in Interior Impact." CONSEQUENCE: If the console compartment door does not remain closed in a crash, the contents stored in the console may strike the vehicle occupants, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 16370. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.

What car should James Robertson buy to drive his famous 21-mile commute?

Thu, Feb 5 2015

The Internet has been abuzz this week with the story of Detroit resident James Robertson, the 56-year-old factory worker who has walked some 21 miles to work for the last 10 years. The Detroit Free Press brought Robertson's story to the fore, helping an online fundraising campaign to generate more than $275,000 (as of this writing). The original goal was just $5,000, or about enough to replace the used Honda that died on Robertson back in 2005, and left him walking. So, newly flush with funds, what's the perfect car for Robertson to buy? Let's look at the specifics of his situation, and try to pick out the best options. Here's what we know: Robertson's commute is (famously) 21 miles; he lives in downtown Detroit (for now) and seems pretty humble, so something very flashy is probably out; former Honda aside, his ties to the city (and statements about being a Ford fan) seem to indicate a Detroit Three company product is best; he's a single guy with a girlfriend; he's got to deal with Michigan weather, and the sometimes fickle snow removal processes in The D. Here are some choices: Ford F-150 Robertson is on record as being a Taurus fan, and after a decade of walking I've no doubt that the big sedan would offer a cozy respite. Still, as a car guy and a student of the industry, I'd have a hard time recommending a sedan so clearly in need of replacement. Especially when The Blue Oval has such great stuff within the rest of its roster. The 2015 F-150 seems almost perfect for Robertson. Opting for either of the new EcoBoost V6 engines should help keep fuel bills in reasonable check, while healthy ride height and four-wheel drive will get him to work on time even during the snowiest of snow days. Better still, with a fat options sheet and car-like ride quality, Robertson can have just about every amenity he might want, in a package that won't disrespect his blue-collar roots. Chevrolet Colorado You guys saw this one coming, right? The smaller footprint of the midsize Chevy pickup, relative to some of the other options here, should be an advantage for urban parking and driving. And again, 4x4 is an option for the nasty weather, the running costs should stay pretty low and there aren't many tech/luxury features that can't be had in-cabin. I'd go ahead and splash out on the Crew Cab bodystyle, too, just in case Robertson feels like starting a carpool.
