Up for sale is a 1985 Chevy Silverado Brown with Burgundy interior shortbed stepside 4wd.

This truck has spent its whole life in the dry Sacramento Valley near Red Bluff, California

There is absoulutely no rust on this body anywhere. There are some minor dents that could be taken out by a dent doctor.

This truck has the original factory paint on it. It has never been re-painted. As you can see from the pictures,the paint is burnt through on the hood and several other areas. There is no rust on this truck. It is a factory brown truck, the wood on the bed floor needs to be replaced, and the tailgate has a few repair welds where the factory spot welds failed. The grille plastic is in good shape and not broken up like most. Both doors open and close like they should I had the strikers replaced. The plastic bushings on the strikers break off, and they don't close properly if not replaced. The truck has a rear sliding window and needs a new plastic latch.

The dash is badly cracked from the California sun and the door panels are faded on the top. The gauges work and there is an aftermarket mechanical temperature gauge installed. There are some toggle switch holes in the lower part of the dash. The factory Delco radio does not work. The bench seat has no tears in it, but has some small pin holes and is faded from the California sun. The electric door locks do not work. The power windows work, but the passenger side is slow. The Burgundy carpet is new. The headliner has been removed.

The truck has factory GM Rally wheels with center caps and trim rings. The tires are 33 12.50 15 and are about 1 year old with at least 80% tread remaining.

The truck has a newer upgraded 5.7 liter 350 that runs great. The ac does not work. The power steering works good. It has a 4 speed manual transmission with a hydraulic clutch. The clutch master cylinder was replaced about a year ago. The clutch works great and the transmission shifts and works great. The 4wd works fine. The choke light stays on, but a new carburetor was installed abour a year ago and starts up and runs great.

This is a great 4 wheel drive shortbed stepside.

.This is a hard to find California no rust truck. I was going to re-paint this truck, but I have another project that needs to be finished. Please email or call/text (email is best as I'n in a bad phone service area) (530)370-9200 if you have any questions. Buyer is responsible for shipping. I will cooperate with your shipper to make it as easy as possible for them. $1,000 deposit due within 24 hours of auction close. Balance due within 7 days.

Franchitti, Kanaan, and Dixon prank young IndyCar driver

Fri, May 22 2015

The 20-year-old Sage Karam is a rising star in racing after scoring the 2013 Indy Lights Championship and taking ninth place in the 2014 Indianapolis 500. He's now competing for Chip Ganasi Racing, one of the top teams in the IndyCar Series, and counts this year's pole sitter Scott Dixon and former winner Tony Kanaan as teammates. Of course, being so young and a new member of the squad, some lighthearted hazing is to be expected. Dixon, Kanaan, and three-time Indy 500 winner Dario Franchitti decided to play a little prank on Karam. While ostensibly detailing his Chevrolet Camaro, the three joking racecar drivers turned it into the Karamo. Check out the video above to see exactly what that means. After some scary crashes going into this year's event, it's refreshing to watch some cheery things happening at Indy.

2016 Chevy Volt wins Green Car of the Year

Thu, Nov 19 2015

The award ceremony for the 2016 Green Car Of The Year announcement at the LA Auto Show today started with a joke video by juror Jay Leno. Showing of a restored and refurbished 100-year-old Detroit Electric EV, Leno said that while there were a lot of different powertrains in the running this year, he didn't expect any German diesels to win. Yuk yuk. There was no doubt that Leno was right; there were no diesels in the finalist's circle. The winner this year was the new, second-generation Chevy Volt, a plug-in hybrid with a 53-mile electric range and 106 MPGe. The first-gen car won the title five years ago, making the Volt the first model to be crowned Green Car Of The Yera more than once. The other finalists this year were the Audi A3 E-Tron, the new Toyota Prius, the Hyundai Sonata, and the Honda Civic. One of Green Car Journal's most important factors in deciding the winner is widespread availability, said Green Car Journal editor Ron Cogan as he announced the award. Qualifying vehicles also have to be on sale by January 1st of the award year (in this case, 2016). For the record, AutoblogGreen readers also picked the Volt to win in our poll a few months ago with 42 percent of the vote. Second place was the Prius, with 21 percent. Earlier this year, Green Car Journal had to strip the awards from two diesel vehicles, the 2009 VW Jetta TDI, which won in 2008, and the 2010 Audi A3 TDI, the 2010 winner. We enjoyed our seat time in the new Volt, and you can read our review here. Related Video:

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.
