1982 Gmc Caballero Amarillo Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 4.4l on 2040-cars
Manchester, New Hampshire, United States
|
1982 GMC Caballero, GMC's re-badge of the El Camino. I've had this since 2001, it is in running condition and has been on the road a few times this year. This is in unfinished condition, the paint is only a few years old now, it is not a professional spray. It had only been meant to keep the body from rusting while the truck was getting worked on.
The underbody was painted a year ago, as deep in every nook and cranny and frame rail as I could reach. I am selling it because I was laid off last year and no longer have the funds to continue restoring it and do not have the room to keep an unfunded project. As is, it is in driving condition with some new parts all around, like rear springs and shocks, heater-blower control switch, door-window-felts, heat-shielding/anti-vibration masking on the roof, doors and rear cab. Underbody has been cleaned and painted, body was painted to keep car from rusting (it's a preventive paint job, nothing pretty), the bed coated in bedliner. The interior has been stripped, the AC has been removed, the seats are leather buckets but not original to the car. The car will come with lots of parts both new and old including AC parts, the factory manual, assorted fasteners and spare bits, extra wire harnesses, extra gauges, new front springs, new dome light, and lots more. I did register it this year and had it inspected: It failed because of the following: - The heater/defroster blows on 1, 2, and 3 but when on the highest setting the fan stops. I already bought a new switch but it did not fix the problem. So it may be the relay or a ground wire. - The speedometer and odometer are also not working. I think it is the trans end of the speedo cable but am not sure. - The reverse lights did not correspond to the reverse selection on the column. It was just the indicator switch, I reset it and it works fine. The switch is new and slipped out of place. Given the situation I am not looking to put any more work into the vehicle, just sell it As Is. They should be quick fixes if you want to drive the vehicle asap, or easy additions to a restoration. If you have any questions please send a note. I can upload more pictures by request until the last day of the auction I think so if there's something you'd like a closer look at, let me know.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups
Mon, 14 Oct 2013General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.
