This is a 1988 Chevrolet short wheel base step side truck that has been heavily customized. I will try to list everything that has been done to it. A friend of mine has a body shop locally that all the custom work was done at. He is we'll know around the area for doing custom vehicles. It has an excellent paint job using 3800 base clear high end paint. The inside of the bed looks as good as the outside. It has borla exhaust on and corvette tips and headers. It has an msd ignition along with a 6a box. It has a cold air intake and a stage 2 jegs performance chip. Has all new msd wires. Has all new sensors( all that could be put on the engine). It has a new crate LS 350 motor that has a alittle over 7,000 miles. It has always has Mobil one synthetic oil. It has all new brakes and brake lines. Along with booster and master cylinder. It has a new battery. It has been lowered 4 in the front and 6 in the back. It has an all belltech drop suspension with two inch drop spindles. It has new bell tech coil springs and all new euro thane bushings. It has new ball joints. It has a steel cowl hood. It has a new steel roll pan. Brand new 5 spoke 18 x 8 wheels and new v rated tired with a new spare tire. It has LED tail lights and new grill with a billet bow tie emblem. It has new one piece HID headlights and running lights. It has new side mirrors. New step pads on the bed. It has all new infinity component speakers with a 10 inch infinity subwoofer as well as an infinity amp and clarion equalizer. Also has another amp that runs the infinity speakers that replaced the factory ones. It has a new CD player with Bluetooth and mp3 with remote. It has all new carpet and headliner. It has a new serpentine belt because we disabled the smog pump. And that is kinda where the customization got stopped. I was having this done for my son as it's the kind of work I did before I broke my neck many years ago. Before the inside of truck was finished we found out that out son had a brain tumor. It was driven by my wife for about 6 months because we didn't want to get rid of it. I have come to the realization that we we no longer need the truck. Now on to the things that didn't get customized. The seats which are in good shape.it is a 60-40 bench seat that came out of a new truck. We were gonna have it covered in leather along with all of the dash and door panels. The ac work and blows cold air works but it needs a new o ring on the evaporator line. It leaks down in about two days. There are probably some other things that were upgraded that I just can't seem to think of at the moment. I have way more money invested in the truck than I am asking for it. It is also for sale locally. If there are any questions please feel free to call at 205-625-6568 or send a message.

GM cutting back on powertrain warranty citing lack of interest

Thu, Mar 12 2015

Generally, when a manufacturer offers a long, high-mileage warranty, it's a sign that it stands behind its products. On top of that, it's generally a selling point for consumers, who can rest easy knowing that any catastrophic failures will be picked up by the manufacturer. Considering those facts, it does seem rather strange that General Motors is slashing the mileage warranty on model year 2016 vehicles from Chevrolet and GMC. Instead of offering consumers a 100,000-mile warranty, GM will now only offer a powertrain warranty up to 60,000 miles. The five-year warranty period, though, remains unchanged. GM will also cut the number of free services being offered to Chevy and GMC owners, as well as Buick drivers, from four to two. "Through research, we have determined that when purchasing a new vehicle, included maintenance and warranty rank low on the list of reasons why consumers consider a particular brand over another," explained a memo sent to dealers by Chevrolet VP Brian Sweeney and his GMC counterpart, Duncan Aldred, and obtained by Automotive News. "As a result, we have benchmarked our competitors, reviewed our current offerings and have concluded the following modifications to align closely with our customers' needs and expectations." While the move might seem odd, Sweeney and Aldred are right – according to Automotive News, Ford, Honda and Toyota each offer a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. As for what the money saved by trimming the powertrain warranty will go towards, a GM spokesperson simply told AN that the company will "reinvest the savings we will realize into other retail programs," some of which have been requested by consumers. What are your thoughts? Would a 40,000-mile reduction in a new vehicle's powertrain really turn you off from buying one? Even if it matched its competitors? Is GM better off spending its money elsewhere? Have your say in Comments.

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.

NHTSA ends GM steering investigation without seeking a recall

Wed, Jun 8 2022

DETROIT — U.S. safety regulators have closed an investigation into sticky power steering on thousands of older General Motors SUVs and will not seek a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says GM in 2014 issued Â“special coverageÂ” to fix the problem on the Chevrolet Equinox, GMC Terrain and other models. The coverage replaced a steering gear with an improved one. The agency said a recall isn't needed because of the coverage and low complaint and warranty repair rates. The agency opened the probe in June of 2020 into steering problems affecting an estimated 781,000 of the SUVs from the 2010 through 2012 model years. Increased friction could make it feel like the steering wheel is stuck. But GM said the SUVs could still be turned, although with more effort than usual. Â“In view of the special coverage, low rate of failure and low potential hazard to drivers, this preliminary evaluation is closed,Â” the agency wrote in documents posted Wednesday on its website.
