Red 1985 Chevy Silverado K10 4wd 4x4 Short Bed Very Nice on 2040-cars
Cherryvale, Kansas, United States
|
This is a beautiful 1985 I bought it in early 2011 from the previous owner who had it for 15 years. The Autocheck report shows this as a 2 owner, however this is not accurate, as the previous owner did not buy it new. It had a Goodwrench 350 and Edelbrock carb already installed when I got it. It's had a partial restoration since I've owned it, it's been painted, color sanded and buffed, and had many new parts installed, including both fuel tanks and sending units, fuel selector valve and switch, Edelbrock Performer EPS intake, master cylinder, brake booster, heater core, blower motor, billet grill,driver's side window motor, new door/window seals, new rear glass and seal, headliner, dash cap, door hinge pins and bushings and many other miscellaneous parts. I added the BF Goodrich MTs and Mickey Thompson wheels. I do have the original factory rally wheels, original bench seat (needs work), and the original Silverado fender trim. The truck has never been lifted, and the steering and suspension is all very tight. I was in the processing of changing the interior to black, and it still needs carpet and a seat cover (the later model bench seat is in decent condition, but has some stains and a tear in the driver's side that has been sewn up). The lumbar support in the seats is connected and functional. I was also planning to do a spray-in bedliner. As you can see in the pictures, the inside of the bed is very straight and rust free, this truck has mainly been used as a driver and not abused.
The issues that I'm aware of are: the cruise control does not work, the a/c works and still has R12 refrigerant in it, but the compressor is a little noisy. There are a couple places in the paint where there is some slight color variance, and I believe this is due to a different color primer being used in these areas. It doesn't show in the pictures, and I didn't see this for several days after I got it back from being painted, however I wanted to point it out. There are also a lot of rock chips on the rocker panels that have been touched up, you can see this in one of the pictures. The passenger side window motor is getting weak and will need to be replaced. |

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
