BOUGHT THIS TAHOE FROM LOCAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE TO REPLACE MY WIFE'S JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE.  WE HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS UNDER THE AGE OF 3 GROWING LIKE WEEDS.  I WAS GOING TO FIX THIS UP AS A DAILY DRIVER FOR HER TO GIVE HER AND THE GIRLS MORE ROOM.  MY WIFE LIKES THE TAHOE BUT HAS DECIDED SHE WOULD LIKE A SUBURBAN INSTEAD, SO THE TAHOE MUST GO!


LET'S START WITH THE THINGS I KNOW THIS CAR NEEDS:

RIGHT FRONT FENDER HAS BEEN PUSHED BACK SLIGHTLY AND MAKES CONTACT WITH THE FRONT DOOR WHEN OPENING.  HAD A LOCAL BODY SHOP LOOK AT IT AND THEY SAID THE EASIEST THING TO DO IS REPLACE THE FENDER WITH A USED FACTORY REPLACEMENT.  GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE VEHICLE STILL HAS DECALS FROM SHERIFF'S OFFICE USE, SO THIS FENDER WONT NEED TO HAVE THE DECALS REMOVED!


CHECK ENGINE LAMP IS ON WITH A CODE FOR THE RIGHT BANK KNOCK SENSOR.  I WOULD RECOMMEND REPLACING BOTH SENSORS SINCE THE OTHER SIDE WILL SURELY FAIL AS SOON AS THE TRUCKS BACK TOGETHER.  SENSORS ARE LOCATED UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD SO WILL TAKE ABOUT A DAYS WORTH OF WORK AND APPROX $160 IN PARTS.


HAS THE NOTORIOUS KNOCK FROM THE STEERING COLUMN, INDICATING AN UPDATED INTERMEDIATE STEERING SHAFT IS DUE.  SHAFT TAKES ABOUT AN HOUR TO REPLACE AND ARE READILY AVAILABLE ON EBAY FOR AROUND $60.00


REAR A/C CONTROL DOOR ACTUATOR IS NOT WORKING SO REAR A/C ONLY BLOWS WARM AIR.  COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE TRUCKS AND REPLACEMENT REQUIRES REMOVAL OF RIGHT REAR INTERIOR PLASTIC.  ABOUT A 1 HOUR JOB.

FINALLY, THE DASH WARNING CENTER SHOWS THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM NEEDS SERVICE.  THIS IS BECAUSE THESE WHEELS DO NOT HAVE THE CORRECT VALVE STEMS TO WORK WITH THIS SYSTEM.  ACCORDING TO THE TIRE SHOP IT IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENTS TO NOT USE THE TIRE WARNING SYSTEM AS IT CAN FALSELY IDENTIFY NON EXISTING CONCERNS FOR THE OFFICER DRIVING.  SYSTEM CAN BE RECONNECTED BY SIMPLY HAVING THE CORRECT VALVE STEMS INSTALLED.


NOW FOR THE GOOD STUFF:

VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH A TRAIL READY BRAND FRONT BUMPER.  THIS THING WILL ALLOW YOU TO MOW OVER SMALL TREES AND OTHER OBSTACLES WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN!  BUMPER HAS MOUNT FOR WINCH AS WELL AS 6" OFF ROAD DRIVING LIGHTS.

HAD VEHICLE CHECKED OUT BY LOCAL SHOP AND THEY FOUND ALL FLUIDS APPEAR IN GOOD CONDITION AND FILTERS LOOK NEW.  THIS IS WHY MY OTHER CAR IS AN EX COP CAR, THEY MAINTAIN THEIR VEHICLES!!

I REPLACED THE HEATER BLOWER RESISTOR UNDER THE DASH AS THE FAN WAS ONLY BLOWING ON SETTINGS 1-4.  THIS IS ALSO A NOTORIOUS FAILURE ON THESE VEHICLES. FAN WORKS EXCELLENT NOW.

VEHICLE HAS VINYL FLOORING SO SPILLS AREN'T A CONCERN.  FRONT SEATS ARE CLOTH AND THE REAR SEAT IS VINYL.  VEHICLE WAS ORDERED THIS WAY AS IT WAS USED AS A SHERIFF'S VEHICLE.

VEHICLE HAS THE MORE RARE REAR BARN DOORS, INSTEAD OF THE LIFT GATE THAT MOST TAHOE'S SEEM TO HAVE.

VEHICLE IS SET UP FOR 2ND BATTERY OPTION.  HAS TRAY AND BATTERY CABLES IF NEW OWNER WANTS TO INSTALL.

PLEASE ASK ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS PRIOR TO END OF AUCTION!

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
