Year:1979

Location:

Condition: Exceptional condition for a vehicle which I would consider as being "unrestored". The paint is original, and the truck is almost entirely stock.
Features: Dealer installed A/C and cruise control. All wheel drive. Rare 400ci small block. Freshly rebuilt Turbo 350 Transmission with shift correction. History: For sale is this 1979 Chevy K10 Silverado with a professionally rebuilt turbo 350 transmission. The chassis has 152k and the 400c.i. small block was rebuilt by the first owner. Originally purchased in Glenns Ferry from Shrum Motors in 1979, this truck still shows its shine from its freshly detailed single-stage lacquer paintjob. My father bought this truck from the original owner in Mountain Home, and my father drove it for roughly a decade here in rural Southern Idaho. At some point the transmission gave out so there it sat for about three years before I got ahold of it. I originally swapped out the transmission for a second-hand purchase, and from there I drove the truck for about a year. In that time I installed a new carburetor kit, I adjusted the hydraulic lifters, checked the timing, and installed new spark plugs with the correct gap. Since the carburetor kit, this truck has always started immediately so long as it's driven daily. The automatic choke operates perfectly, giving this truck immediate cold starts, high idle warm-up, and a comfortably low warm idle. Within the last hundred miles I have pulled the second-hand transmission and installed a professionally rebuilt transmission with shift correction from Tim Cabral, an ASE Certified Transmission Builder. The shift is firm, and the shift points are adjusted perfectly for the throttle and vacuum environment. Check out this video: http://youtu.be/Yt9HnXI6Cb4 Items which currently do not work: -The horns have been disconnected because they stay on -The A/C probably needs recharged, I have never installed a belt -The climate control leaves the fan speed on low, but the truck heats up nicely I am selling the truck because I have an SUV and a highway car. As much as I love this truck, I need to cut back on personal projects. I am keen someone can take this project to the next level. I have brought the paint back to good condition, and overall the truck details nicely. All of the chrome is in exceptional condition, and although the paint has some dings and scratches, it polishes like nothing I have ever owned. The softness of the lacquer paint makes scratches, stains and imperfections a matter of swirl remover. |

GM recalls 638,000 U.S. SUVs, trucks for unintended braking
Sat, Nov 2 2019WASHINGTON — General Motors is recalling 638,000 U.S. sport utility vehicles and pickup trucks because a wheel-speed sensor could fail and cause unintended braking, it said Thursday. The recall covers 2015-2020 Chevrolet Suburban, Tahoe, and Yukon and 2014-2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 vehicles equipped with a 5.3-liter engine, a 3.08-ratio rear axle and four-wheel drive. The sensor failure could result in unintended activation of the driveline protection system, and cause unintended braking of the wheel on the opposite side of the failed sensor. That could cause the vehicle to pull to one side unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash, the Detroit automaker said. GM said it was not aware of any crashes relating to the issue but found 150 field claims alleging the condition caused unintended braking or lateral vehicle motion. A GM dealer in May submitted a warranty report relating to the issue in a 2018 GMC Yukon, and two days later, a GM brand quality manager submitted the report to GMÂ’s Speak Up For Safety program that tracks potential safety issues, which prompted a GM investigation and testing.

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
