Up for sale is a Very Rare 1997 Chevrolet Silverado Centurion edition package with the 5.7L 350 Vortec Engine with an automatic 4L60E transmission. It has a 10 Bolt Rear Axle with the GT4 G80 3.73 ratio. The truck has right around 148,000 miles on it. It is a crew cab short bed truck which wasn't available from the factory, only as a conversion from Centurion. They didn't make many of these and finding one this clean is almost impossible. The truck spent most of its life in Florida which is why it is so clean and 100% Rust Free! It is a 4x4 truck with the Z71 Off-Road Package. The truck is in overall very good condition. It starts right up and drives smooth and straight. No issues mechanically. The interior I will call a 7 out of 10 as the top of the dashboard has cracks due to the Florida Sun. There will be a dashboard cover put on the dash before the truck is sold, which doesn't look bad. The seat has a very small tear/hole on the drivers side and there are a few stains on the carpet. The exterior of the truck I will call a 9 out of 10. There are some small blemishes around the truck and a couple of small dings. No major dents or rust ANYWHERE. The underside of the truck is probably the cleanest I've ever seen in my area. It looks like it was never driven in type of inclement weather. The truck has power windows, locks, and mirrors, as well as cruise control, push button 4x4, aftermarket CD player, day-time running lights, cargo light, and power lumbar seats. I will give some history on these trucks, if you are not familiar, GM did not make a crew cab Silverado 1500 (1/2 ton, 6 lug) in the 90's. (They only made the 1500 in regular cab or extended cab, or crew cabs in 2500, or 3500, 8-lug.) Centurion took a regular cab short bed, straight off the GM assembly line, stretched the frame, and bought all genuine GM parts, (cab and interior parts) and made these crew cab short beds. They then sent them to the GM dealers to sell as new trucks. This conversion costs $18,000, plus the MSRP of the original truck was around $21,000. These trucks were not cheap. These trucks are very rare, rumor is they only made about 100 of them per year, (from 1996-1998). Just a quick note, because of the conversion, the VIN and registration shows as a regular cab 2 door truck. If anyone is interested in getting this truck shipped to them I will gladly assist with any shipping company on pick-up, as long as you set everything up. I will also offer to tow the truck free to the buyer as long as they are in a 50 mile radius if the reserve price is met. If you have any questions about the truck, would like more information, or pictures of a specific part of the truck please feel free to contact me. Thanks and Good Luck!

Meet the mother-daughter team that's worked on almost every Chevy Volt

Sun, May 11 2014

It's Mother's Day, and we're soft enough we love our mothers enough to share a new video from General Motors with you. In it, we meet Monique Watson (left) and Evetta Osbourne, a mother-daughter team that works at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly where GM makes the Chevy Volt (along with all of GM's other plug-in hybrids: the Opel Ampera, Holden Volt and Cadillac ELR). The two work side-by-side and have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on almost all of those vehicles - nearly 80,000 of them - since GM started making the pre-production Volts in 2009. In a prepared statement, Watson said that she likes working next to her mom, day in and day out, and they the two are totally in sync when it comes to putting the 400-pound, 16.5-kWh packs into the vehicle undersides. They two can also share stories throughout the day, and Watson said, "The arrangement has absolutely improved our relationship." Osborne started working at Detroit-Hamtramck in 1999, Watson since 2006. If you're driving a Volt today, you probably have them to thank for doing a bit of the work putting your car together. See a short video of them in action below. It's Always Mother's Day for Detroit-Hamtramck Duo Mother, daughter install lithium-ion battery pack in nearly all GM electric vehicles 2014-05-08 DETROIT – For Detroit resident Evetta Osborne, every day is Mother's Day. That's because she literally works side by side with her daughter, Monique Watson, at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. They have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on nearly every Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera, Holden Volt, and Cadillac ELR since production began. In fact, apart from vacation days and an occasional sick day, the mother-daughter duo has installed almost every battery pack since the Volt was in pre-production in 2009. The ELR launched earlier this year. All told Â– including Ampera Â– that's more than 80,000 electric vehicles. "We're a good team and our relationship is secondary when it comes to performing our jobs Â– but it's great to work alongside my daughter, said Osborne, a mother of five. Because the battery packs weigh more than 400 pounds each, automatic guided vehicles Â– robotic carts that use sensors to follow a path through the plant Â– deliver them just as the vehicle body structures glide into position overhead. The carts then lift the T-shaped packs, and Osborne and Watson guide them into the chassis and secure each one with 24 fasteners.

Chevy Traverse, Hyundai Santa Fe revealed; Buick Envista, BMW M4 CSL driven | Autoblog Podcast #790

Fri, Jul 21 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor John Beltz Snyder. After some banter, including the discussion of an excellent tomato sauce recipe, they get into car reviews. Greg has been driving the Mercedes-AMG GLE 53, while John has been testing the BMW M4 CSL and Buick's new Envista crossover. There's lots of interesting news this week. Chevy revealed the 2024 Traverse with new looks, a new engine and on off-road(ish) trim. Hyundai gave us a glimpse at the wild styling of the next Santa Fe. Dodge might bring back the Stealth nameplate as an SUV, and that has implications for the Durango as well. Ford, after repeatedly raising prices, has turned around and significantly discounted the F-150 Lightning across all trims. The first Tesla Cybertruck has rolled off the line as a pre-production prototype. Finally, we reach in to the mailbag and help a listener decide what to do with cars for himself and his kids in this week's Spend My Money segment.
