This is a very cool old GMC suburban. It is sitting on a 1972 short bed Chevrolet pickup frame. Thus it rides and handles much better than it did from the factory. It has a 350 V-8 with a 400 turbo transmission, and a 12 bolt rear end. Entire driveline is in very good shape and it runs out just fine. Power steering and power disc brakes. Tilt wheel. The tires are like new and are mounted on American Racing aluminum wheels. Personally, I do not care for the wheels and tires. The wheels have too much offset, and just do not look right for the truck. I do have a very nice set of 5 factory Chevy truck rally wheels that could with it for just $200.00 more. They are 6.5" wide with 4.25 back spacing, which would tuck them in under the fenders much better. I painted one red and set a spider cap and trim ring on it to give you an idea of how they could look. Add a set of wide white wall tires, lower it a bit, and the truck would take on a very different and much cooler look. The other 4 wheels are still original silver. No spider caps or rings included. The real leather seats are power 6 way seats that work just fine and have no splits or tears. They are a light putty color. The rear seat is out of an older suburban and would need to be recovered to match the front seats. Better to just find a newer suburban rear seat that already matches the front color. Should be easy to do. The rear carpeting and stainless steel bed strips are all new. The front floor was done up with hardwood flooring. Would not be my choice but done OK. It has a new headliner front to back, new tinted side windows, new window rubber seals. Windows all work as they should. Door locks work. Dash is nice. All gauges work including speedometer. Wipers and horn work. It has a complete new wiring system. The body is painted dark blue suede ( not shinny ) with pin stripe accents. It is not show but still very cool looking. You could actually shoot it with a clear coat if shinny is your preference. The body is very solid. I have taken a magnet all over the body and cannot find any body filler anywhere. I believe it to be an all original and rust free body. New foot wells have been welded in. The underside is very solid. Only found 2 very small areas where panels were welded in front floor pans under where your feet would be, ( about 6" in diameter each ) and there are still 2 small areas in each corner of the back area near where the bumper brackets come through that could use some repair work. Nothing major or structural. All original body mounts are solid and in great shape. All in all, this is a solid, rare, and desirable truck that is ready to go to the next level, drive as is, or take it down a notch to make a rat rod out of it. It appears to have been a light blue originally, so some light color sanding on high points could easily turn it into a very cool rat rod. Use it to pull around your gasser, hot rod, race car, street rod, or whatever in style. Throw your company name on the side and go have some fun. NO TRADES NO TRADES NO TRADES For those of you over seas; I have sold quite a few cars to guys in Austria, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Germany, etc. so I know how that works. Now for the business end. I encourage you, or someone you trust or hire, to come by and check out the vehicle in person. I will refund your deposit if the vehicle does not match the above description. The vehicle does not leave here until all funds clear my bank. Bank and cashiers checks can take up to 10 business days. My bank will give me a letter stating the date when the check will clear. I will forward a copy of the letter to you. Bank transfers can take up to 2 days depending on what time of the day it is initiated on your end. Again, my bank will let me know when it clears. Cash is great if picking it up in person. Call me at 314-732-592five to get honest answers to all of your questions BEFORE YOU BID. Thanks, Dave One more time, NO TRADES, Please do not ask. If you do not know, understand, and accept what "no trades" means, then you surely do not have a car that I would not be interested in. I do not respond to low ball offers, text messages, or take offers over the phone. If you want to make an offer, please do so through ebay email. Include your name and contact info. If I feel you are a serious buyer, I will call you back. If you do not hear back from me, then my vehicle must be out of your price range. Once my vehicle hits it's reserve price, I will not end the auction. I do not give out my reserve price. Too many knuckleheads out there that like to play games with bidding just under the reserve amount with no intention of actually buying a vehicle. Makes it look like schill bidding is going on. If you have a feed back rating less that 100% or zero feedback, you might want to check with me before bidding. I will sometimes block or cancel bids if I get a bad feeling for the bidder. For you new members, please don't bid unless you know and accept how ebay works and understand that you are legally committing to purchase if you bid. Not following through with a purchase after winning an auction for a new member can result in ebay canceling your membership. Thanks to all, good luck with your bidding, and have a great day, Dave |

2015 Sierra All Terrain HD looks ready to hit heavy-duty trails
Thu, 22 May 2014GMC is getting its heavy-duty trucks ready for the mud this summer with its All Terrain package for the Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD. Meant to blend style, tech and ruggedness, the pack includes a lot of extra chrome outside and an off-road package underneath.
The 2015 Sierra All Terrain HD trucks naturally come standard with four-wheel drive with an electronically controlled transfer case to handle things in the dirt. The Z71 off-road package is also standard, which includes Rancho twin-tube shocks, hill descent control and a skid plate. To add some style when off the beaten path, the pack includes chrome trim on the mirror caps, lower bumper and grille surround, plus LEDs around the headlights and 18-inch wheels (20-inchers are optional on the 2500HD). The 3500HD also gets chrome, adjustable outside camper mirrors. The interior receives a technology upgrade thanks to the standard rearview camera and IntelliLink infotainment that can act as a Wi-Fi hotspot through OnStar 4G LTE, read text messages and includes Siri Eyes Free for iPhone users.
The All Terrain package goes on sale on both trucks this summer and is offered on either the SLE or SLT trim levels in double cab and crew cab models. The standard engine is the 6.0-liter V8 with 360 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque, but the Duramax 6.6-liter, diesel V8 with 397 hp and 765 lb-ft is also available. The gas engine is mated to a Hydra-matic six-speed automatic, and the diesel uses an Allison six-speed automatic. Scroll down to read the full announcement about these heavy-duty off-roaders.
GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
GM mulling off-road variants of fullsize SUVs
Tue, 24 Sep 2013According to General Motors, owners "just love off-roading with [its fullsize body-on-frame sport utility vehicles]," namely the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban and GMC Yukon. If that's the case, it's a bit odd that sales of the previous generation of these models with the Z71 off-road package didn't sell particularly well.
Perhaps, considering this disconnect between owner's thoughts and desires with actual sales, it's not surprising that General Motors is reportedly "considering" an off-road specific model. That means the package would include styling changes and badges along with suspension modifications and larger wheels with appropriately sized fender flares.
There's no indication if the off-road model would be called Z71 or when it may potentially go on sale, assuming it ever goes on sale at all.
