1972 Gmc Jimmy "custom" on 2040-cars
Port Orchard, Washington, United States
1972 GMC Jimmy "Custom" This is a project
vehicle & the reserve set reflects it. Having said that, it is still
a custom Jimmy, in Hugger orange! i have taken pictures of the area's
that are problematic & as you can see, they are minimal. The rust
area's are pretty much confined to the rockers, passenger side door
corners & the small spot in the front of the passenger side floor
boards. The very back area of the bed is pretty much the carpet backing.
I purchased this from the previous owner (recently deceased) with the
intention of fixing it up to a "trail rig" as you can see from the
photos, the passenger side has a bit of "trail patina" but nothing to
major for the rear quarter panel & all rockers, fenders & patch
panels are readily available & fairly inexpensive for this type of
vehicle. Those are the bad things. The good things
are the overall shape of this vehicle! The skinny that i know of goes
as follows. The rig has not been plated since 2004 i think. The previous
owner parked it (with no problems/running at the time) with the
intention of putting a fuel injection set-up on it. There it sat, under a
tarp, until his recent passing, upon which time i acquired the vehicle.
It has what is rumored to be a 400 small block Chevy in it, that may
run, but i have not attempted to get it started & going (hence the
low reserve) the majority of the floors, firewall & dash are largely
untouched minus the dash artist.Frame is in good shape with a "scuff
& shoot" all that is really needed. I was planning on putting the
floors in black rhino lining myself, but that is up to you! The vehicle
has had a basic clean out, with no washing of the interior & a quick
bath of the outside. It has some leather bucket seats out of an Honda
accord i think & an original rear that will need to be re-done.
Center console is there & seems to only need a few trim pieces.
Please feel free to e-mail me any questions about the vehicle. Buyer is
responsible for shipping & please bid on the vehicle if you can
afford to buy it. Buyer is responsible for shipping from area code 98367

GM announces six new recalls, covering 3.5 million vehicles
Mon, 16 Jun 2014General Motors has just initiated another crushingly large recall, this time affecting some 3.36 million vehicles built between 2000 and 2014 and sold in the US, Canada and Mexico. Once again, the issue surrounds the cars' ignition switches, which can be kicked out of the run position if they're carrying extra weight or if they experience a "jarring" event. In this particular case, though, GM will modify the keys, rather than the ignition itself.
A four-by-six-millimeter hole will be drilled into the key, which will more safely accommodate the weight of the key ring. As is usually the case, the work will be done free of charge. The recalled vehicles include the 2000 to 2005 Cadillac Deville, 2004 to 2005 Buick Regal LS and GS, 2004 to 2011 Cadillac DTS, 2005 to 2009 Buick Lacrosse, 2006 to 2008 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 2006 to 2011 Buick Lucerne and 2006 to 2014 Chevrolet Impala. Only the Impala is still in production, and even then, it's only sold to fleet companies.
According to an official statement from GM, there have been eight crashes and six injuries due to this latest issue. As if this isn't a dire enough blow for GM, the company has announced five smaller recalls, covering 165,000 vehicles.
GM recalling Silverado and Sierra HD diesel pickups over fuel gauge follies
Fri, 03 Jan 2014General Motors is recalling 9,733 of its heavy-duty twins over concerns with their 6.6-liter diesel engines and dual fuel tanks. The recall covers some Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD pickups from model years 2012 and 2013, although the exact dates that the recalled trucks were built isn't specified. There's also no mention of how many models come from Chevrolet and how many are from GMC.
The problem rests with the transfer pump responsible for moving fuel from the rear tank to the front tank - it could fail, resulting in an inaccurate fuel gauge. It hardly requires explaining, but a faulty fuel gauge could leave drivers in a situation where they run out of diesel.
GM will begin notifying customers of affected vehicles, who will be asked to report to their dealers for a free replacement transfer pump.
GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015
Mon, 25 Feb 2013General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.
