I am selling at NO RESERVE this beautiful 1992 Chevrolet Silverado Step-Side pick up truck.  It is quite rare to find these step-sides available in this condition that are unmolested.  I know, because I searched for a long time to find this one!


I have sold two other antique very nice vehicles on E-bay this year, also at no reserve. One of my vehicles was shipped to FL, the other one to Australia, both site unseen and both buyers are extremely happy.  I expect whoever buys this truck will be happy with this purchase, as well.  That being said, I cannot provide a warranty and you are buying as-is.

As you can see from the many pictures, this truck is a beauty.  It always receives compliments whenever I drive it.  The factory sticker on the door states this truck was made in Fort Wayne, Indiana.   As far as I know, I am the second owner.  The original owner was a retired man, and used it as a camper, and in fact, the truck bed was spotless.  There are still a few signs of the silicone rubber caulking that he used to seal the camper.  The scratches on the truck bed are from when I regretfully used it to move some furniture once.  You could paint the bed or purchase a bed liner, if you wanted this to be a show truck.  There are no dents in the bed.  There is no rust on the vehicle that I can find.  There are also no leaks that I am aware of.  I keep it parked in my garage.  I would not hesitate to drive this truck anywhere.  I drove it from Nashville to Seaside, FL and back last summer for a family vacation and it worked marvelously.  The engine runs well. 

I am not 100% positive that I want to sell this truck, and if the bids do not reach an acceptable level, I reserve the right to close the auction early, so BID EARLY if you are interested or I may just keep it.  

It is a gorgeous Victory Red.  It has the original Chevrolet rubber floor mats.  It has a 5.7 liter engine, automatic transmission, cold air, Panasonic CD AM/FM radio and is XM capable, tilt steering wheel, sliding rear window, power windows and power door locks.  It has an exterior cargo light, with a dash switch inside the cab.  The seats, carpet, and headliner are in great condition.

The General Grabber tires on this truck are almost new and have a ton of tread left.  It has a heavy duty bumper, capable for a maximum 4,000 lb. trailer load.  It has two trailer hitches in different sizes, and has an opening slot for a third trailer hitch.  The bumper can handle a tongue load of 400 lbs. max.  It has brand new front headlights and lens and turn signal lens.  It has a new water pump. 

I have had this truck for approximately 10 years and have enjoyed driving it.  I have not used it as a daily driver to work, it has been an extra vehicle for me, and used only when we needed to haul something.

This vehicle is 21 years old and looks amazing for its age, however it does have a few minor blemishes (see condition notes above.)  If I were to keep this vehicle, there are 2 primary things I would do are:  take the carburetor off and have it professionally cleaned and have the rotors turned.

Some info about this vehicle from the Chevrolet Silverado wiki page:  
This model is a fourth generation Chevrolet truck. The fourth generation was manufactured from 1988 to 2000.  Development of these trucks began around 1984 and were introduced in April 1987 as 1988 models (known as the GMT400 platform), there were eight different versions of the C/K line for 1988: Fleetside Single Cab, Fleetside Extended Cab, Fleetside Crew Cab, and Stepside Single Cab, each in either 2WD (C) or 4WD (K) drivelines. All C/K models would ride on independent front suspension. Three trim levels were available: Cheyenne, Scottsdale, and Silverado. Engines were a 160 hp (119 kW) 4.3 L V6, a 175 hp (130 kW) 5.0 L V8, a 210 hp (157 kW) 5.7 L V8 and a 6.2 L diesel V8. A 230 hp (172 kW) 7.4 L V8 was available in the 3/4-ton and one-ton trucks.  A drastic difference between the 3rd generation and 4 generation GM trucks was the suspension. The 4th generation GM trucks used all independent front suspensions (IFS).  
5.7 L V8:  Power:  190 hp (140 kW) @ 4000 RPM   Torque:  300 lb·ft (410 N·m) @ 2400 RPM

Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
