This is a truck I bought last spring to take on as project to restore.  Due to health issues and retirement. I'm letting her go. When I bought this truck I felt like it had to be a pro to type of the electric cars. I still think I'm right. I've had people on line tell me that it was most likely a conversation car. If it was it would have had the clutch and transmission mounts visible what I have read is that in 1994 there were 50 vehicles some S 10's some Rangers and one other type of vehicle taken straight off the assembly line and take over to Hughs Aircraft company where the made them with the Electric dolphin electric motors and battery packs installed.  They were all leased to electric companies and Universities. These were done under leases in most cases. (In 1978-79 Chevrolet Started the evo sales what Ive read is only about 60 cars were sold. The rest was put into lease programs and leased to mainly electric companies with what GM called a dead end program. Which meant the were taken back at the end of the leases and distroryed so GM wouldn't have to supply parts for these vehicles.) What I do know about this truck was it was sold to and Electric company and then was given to the University of Oklahoma.  I do know that a lot of the 78 and 79's were leased to Universities to test. See how many miles on a recharge and basic testing like speed. Every trip was recorded. This truck has a true 5255 miles on it. The spare tire still has the knobbies on it. After testing the truck has just been setting at OU until they decided to sell it, after all these years. I feel like it should be in a museum. It has a 220 volt charging port in the front grill and a 110 volt under gas tank door.  There are no batteries which the try for them is under the bed. I also don't have the chargers for it.  It really wouldn't matter the original battery were lead acid and the newer batteries are more power and longer charge.  Which will take a different charger. I hope someone wants this truck, to keep it for what it was meant to be. I have this truck on other sites, and up for sale locally. I reserve the right to stop the auction at any time. If it makes the low reserve I have on it. I will let it sell on ebay. I've been burned on here by people wasting my time after getting the winning bid.  I hope we don't play that game again.  I will answer any and all questions about the vehicle. Thanks for looking and good luck!

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
