Was my Grandfathers truck. I can't justify keeping it as I need a tow rig with seats for the family. Grandpa putted it to the store and back every couple weeks. 79k on the clock and a desirable 454 and color combo. It drives like a new 28 year old truck and it's mechanically sound as can be. Aesthetically it needs a little TLC as it was stored outside.

Good:
  • 79,200 original miles. Hasn't rolled over. True sub 100k pickup.
  • 454 - Turbo 400 - 14-bolt full floater - Dual tanks.
  • Last year for no catalyst and carb.
  • Full trans rebuild 6500 miles ago (16 years ago, but yeah, 6500 miles).
  • Full brake service including master cylinder 3k miles ago
  • Never smoked in

Bad:

  • Sat outside in Grandpa's driveway its whole life so the paint on the hood and roof is cooked off. It has a few dings and scratches as well.
  • 20 years ago it had a canopy. There are mounting holes and some surface rust on the bed rails.
  • Grandpa apparently never rolled the windows down and both window motors failed within a month of me getting the truck. New motors are $25 on Amazon, I'm just a busy guy.
  • Same thing with the A/C compressor. He never used the A/C and the compressor seized as soon as I turned it on.
  • Drivers vent window lower hinge is broken. It holds itself closed fine but would flap around if you tried to drive with it open.
  • Passenger lock cylinder doesn't seem to match the drivers and should be rekeyed to match.
  • Looks like a loose tire chain beat up the wheel well molding on the left rear.
  • Volt meter doesn't work. Battery and charging system are perfectly functional. All other gauges work including the clock.
Here's a shot of the RPO tag. As you can see this was a heavily optioned truck. G80 locker, dual batteries, tilt, power everything. Not sure if there were any options it didn't have.

Clean title in my name.

Canada opens probe into 250,000 GM pickups, SUVs over brake performance

Sun, Jun 23 2019

Transport Canada, the auto safety regulator, has opened a probe into braking issues in nearly 250,000 General Motors full-size pickups and SUVs after U.S. officials launched a similar probe last year, the agency said on its website. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in November into 2.73 million U.S. 2014-2016 model year SUVs and pickups after receiving 487 reports of hard brake pedal effort accompanied by extended stopping distance that were attributed to deterioration of the engine-driven brake assist vacuum pump. Transport Canada's probe covers 249,700 2015 through 2017 model year vehicles including the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon as well as 2014-2017 Chevrolet Silverado LD and GMC Sierra LD vehicles. The U.S. agency said it had reports of nine incidents of vehicles incurring damage as a result of colliding with another vehicle or fixed object at low speeds and reports of two injuries. NHTSA said if the pump fails to operate, the amount of brake power assist can be significantly reduced, extending vehicle stopping distance. The NHTSA sent GM an information request in a Feb. 7 letter. A GM spokesman said he had no update on the investigation. Reporting by David Shepardson; editing by Jonathan Oatis

Nissan Leaf ends 2013 with best sales month ever, but can't catch Chevy Volt

Fri, Jan 3 2014

Nissan and Chevrolet both ended 2013 with solid sales figures for their plug-in vehicles, the first two that were released (all the way back at the end of 2010) from major automakers. As has been the story for most of 2013, December sales for the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt were roughly the same. When we left the year-to-date running tally at the end of November, the Volt was at 20,702, while the Leaf was at 20,080. As you can tell from the image above (if you've been noticing the trend in these EV sales monthly flash-reports), the Leaf outsold the Volt, but was it enough to put the Nissan on top for the year? In 2013, Nissan sold 22,610 Leafs, more than twice as many as in 2012. Almost. The Leaf made a valiant attempt, and did have its best month ever with 2,529 units sold. That means that for 2013, Nissan moved a total of 22,610 Leafs, more than twice as many as in 2012 (that year, Nissan sold only 9,819 Leafs in the US) and actually more than 2012 and 2011 Leaf sales combined (which was 19,493). Nissan continues to see the effects of its price drop and expanded sales areas, with Georgia rapidly becoming a Leaf hotbed. Nissan's Paige Presley said that Atlanta was once again the Leaf's number one market and that, "sales are expanding deeper into Georgia markets such as Macon and Columbus." The Volt saw a boost upwards from a November slump and sold 2,392 units in December. That puts the plug-in hybrid's annual total at 23,094, just down from the 23,461 sold in 2012. For all of 2013, though, the Volt outsold the Leaf by 484 vehicles. In a competition like this, we'll count that as a win for both sides. We will our more detailed monthly green car sales report, which covers more of the fuel efficient vehicles on the market, up soon.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
