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.

10 of 18 midsize SUVs earn 'good' IIHS side impact safety rating

Wed, May 18 2022

It's not terribly surprising that midsize SUVs earned better safety ratings than small SUVs in the latest side-impact tests performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Just how much better they scored, on the other hand, certainly raises an eyebrow. Ten out of 18 midsize SUVs earned the highest rating of 'good' in the stringent new test, altered for vehicles starting with the 2020 model year with a heavier barrier (4,200 pounds) that moves at a higher speed (37 miles per hour) and is fitted with a hard honeycomb frontal structure. By way of contrast, just one out of of 20 small SUVs earned a 'good' score.  SUVs that receiving 'good' scores were the Ford Explorer, Infiniti QX60, Lincoln Aviator, Mazda CX-9, Nissan Pathfinder, Subaru Ascent, Toyota Highlander, Volkswagen Atlas, Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and Volkswagen ID.4. For EV fans, it's worth noting the ID.4 was the only electric vehicle included in the test. The Buick Enclave and Chevrolet Traverse scraped away with 'acceptable' ratings while the Honda Passport, Honda Pilot, Hyundai Palisade, Jeep Wrangler 4-door, Kia Telluride and Nissan Murano were deemed merely 'marginal' in the tough new test. Only two models — the Mazda CX-9 and Volkswagen ID.4 — earned a "Good" rating in every test category.  Interestingly, the Jeep Wrangler would have scored a 'good' rating if it were equipped with side airbags for the rear seating positions. It would likely be an engineering challenge to equip its removable top and/or doors with airbags, but the lack of that safety feature allowed the head of the rear passenger dummy to hit the vertical support of the top. Otherwise, the Wrangler scored good ratings across the board. The new Ford Bronco, which makes more allowances for side-impact safety, has not yet been tested.  The popular Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride SUVs stand out in the test with 'poor' ratings for driver pelvis injuries. The Nissan Murano, a vehicle last redesigned for the 2015 model year, was the only vehicle tested that received a 'poor' rating for its structure and safety cage. Videos of the tests of 12 of these 18 SUVs can be found on the IIHS' YouTube page.

The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015

Thu, Jan 14 2016

According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.

General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem

Thu, Feb 13 2014

General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.
