Up for auction is a 1986 GMC shortbed 4WD. I will try to describe it as accuraely as possible. Body: My rating for the body would be fairly solid. If you are planning on painting the truck I would put on front fenders, outer rockers, and either patch panels or complete bed sides. They are available in my area for about 300.00 each. The rust in the rockers and cab corners has only infected the outer portion. I drove this truck through the winter. I have photographed all the bad areas of the truck.
Interior: The interior looks to be fairly original. The cab interior is midnight blue. The seat needs covered, and it needs a new mat or carpeting. The door panels are nice enough to be re-dyed. The temp. gauge in the dash does not work, and the speedometer cable is broken. Both easy fixes, I am just short on time. Kenwood detatchable plate CD player in dash, works fine. The dash has one of the black covers on it, I am sure the original dash underneath is cracked and broken.
Glass: All glass intact and in good working order. No breaks or cracks. Typical scratches from use, and rolling windows up and down. Rear slider works find.
Drivetrain: I consider this the strong point of the truck. The fresh 4 bolt 350 has under 5000 miles on it. I estimate this because the oil hasn't got dirty yet. It has a steel crank, flat top pistons and a mild cam, head, and intake combo for pulling and torque. K&N air filter, and chrome valve covers. Quadrajet carb. Reliable, and starts great even in cold weather. No pumping and pumping to start. It's right. It is backed by a turbo 350 that has no issues, with a new process transfer case. If you notice from the pictures the truck has the more desirable truck 12 bolt in the rear. No issues with the drivetrain and everything works as it should.
Wheels-tires-lift: These items are under two years old. Four inch suspension lift with polyurethane bushings, new springs, shocks. Tires are about 60% and are 35x12.50x15. The wheels are ten inches wide, and have no curbing, marks or even wheel weight marring. They could use some hand polishing from where I drove the truck through the winter. They are very nice.
Exhaust: Truck has headers that leak a little at the collectors. (imagine that) The rest of the exhause is pre bent ordered flowmaster 31/2 inch. Sounds great.
This is a pretty nice truck for the year in my area. Even though it needs some paint and body work, it still turns a few heads on the way to Lowe's. My reason for selling is too many projects to fund, and not a lot of time. Please feel free to ask questions or call at 304.578.1107. Thanks for looking.

2015 Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon airbag problem causes recall
Tue, 14 Oct 2014
The recall affects 2,432 vehicles, though only 138 had actually reached consumers.
General Motors quickly fixed an airbag-wiring problem with the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, but is still conducting a small recall to repair the midsize trucks that are launching this fall.
GM to unveil new SUVs at the State Fair of Texas?
Wed, 07 Aug 2013With General Motors just having rolled out its new fullsize truck twins - the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra - for 2014, now it seems to be time to focus on its big SUVs. The Truth About Cars is reporting that the 2015 Chevy Tahoe/Suburban and 2015 GMC Yukon lineup will be making their debuts later next month at the State Fair of Texas, which kicks off on September 27.
To date, we've only seen spy shots of the new Chevy and GMC SUVs (shown above in Yukon XL guise). Based on those spies both trucks seem to be taking a different styling direction than their pickup truck counterparts - just check out the Ford-looking headlight design on the next-gen Chevys.
We reached out to GM for comment and heard back simply that there is no official announcement about the new Tahoe, Suburban and Yukon. Still, the report definitely makes a solid leap of logic, as Texas is a top market for GM's fullsize SUV lineup. It also appears that GM is still planning a separate launch for the next-gen Cadillac Escalade.
GM able to add diesel to half-ton pickups if market demands it
Wed, 18 Sep 2013A few years ago, the trend in half-ton pickup trucks was ultra-luxurious trims, often with the words "limited" or "platinum" tacked on after the model name. That was well and good, but we like this latest fad a lot more - diesel engines. First, Ram came to bat with a 3.0-liter, V6 turbodiesel for the 1500, then Nissan announced that the next-generation Titan would be getting an eight-cylinder Cummins diesel.
Now, word is coming in from AutoGuide that General Motors can, if it so chooses, drop a diesel engine into its light-duty trucks. The plot thickens, though, as it turns out that said diesel would be the same one Ram is using for its truck. According to AG, that engine comes from VM Motori, which GM owns a sizable chunk of. Therefore, GM can snag the 3.0-liter, V6 diesel for its trucks just as easily, if not more easily, than Ram.
If it's so easy for the Detroit-based manufacturer to access the engines, why not offer the a diesel-powered Sierra and Silverado from the start, then? According to GM spokesman Tom Wilkinson, The General doesn't seem so confident in a diesel pickup outside of its HD offerings. According to Wilkinson, the cost-benefit ratio doesn't line up for customers, thanks to both the impact on the truck's sticker price and the higher price of diesel, in general (the national average for a gallon of diesel is 43 cents more than a gallon of 87-octane unleaded).
