I've owned this truck since 2004. The truck had some restoration completed at that time, mostly mechanical. In 2007, I put the truck in the body shop for work. I replaced any new metal parts with GM factory parts only. (i.e., hood, drivers' door, one fender and tail gate.) The bedsides were repaired by cutting out the oxidized metal and replacing it with new steel. -NO BONDO!- Custom paint job conversion to a two-tone red and white, like the originals, with factory striping to match. I have since added the new step bumper. Total investment for body and paint, alone: $12,000.
Once the body was complete, I replaced the worn out 400 small block with a brand new GM Vortec 350 crate motor (from Scoggin-Dickeys in Texas), the same motor found in the later 90's chevy trucks. Keeping fuel efficiency in mind, I opted for strength and reliability over the original, gas-guzzling big block. The motor, fitted with performance pistons, the vortec heads, aluminum intake, electronic ignition, ceramic-coated headers and topped with an Edelbrock 600 cfm carb., the motor is rated at 330hp. The original, mechanical fuel pump was replaced with an electronic, Holley high-performance pump. The truck has been fitted with a 2-inch suspension lift from Skyjacker to give it a little more height. The transmission has been completely rebuilt and a shift-improver and transmission-cooler have also been added. The transmission has performed flawlessly since being upgraded. Both fuel tanks (20 GAL) have also been replaced. The lower front steering assembly was rebuilt just last summer.
There are minimal rock chips below the molding on both sides and a three-inch crack in the center of the dash where the center speaker is located (see pics).
I have personally invested well over $20,000 into this truck.
PLEASE NOTE: I will work with the buyer to arrange pick up of this vehicle, I WILL NOT SHIP.

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.
2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala
Fri, 31 May 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.
Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]
Wed, 15 May 2013We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."
