1986 Chevrolet K20 Suburban

Up for auction is our 1986 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban.   This is a very well maintained vehicle with seating for 8 passengers.  The interior is in fantastic shape for a 28 year old truck.  All interior and exterior lights and gauges work perfectly (even the analog dash clock).  It has 3 rows of seats, all are without stains or tears.  The carpet is also in wonderful condition showing minor fading but no stains, tears or holes.  The dash pad has two thin cracks, one above the speedometer and one in the speaker opening.  All of the power windows function properly and smoothly.  The rear windows from the driver’s row back have been professionally tinted. Overall, the interior is nicer than most 2 year old vehicles you see listed on eBay.

The Suburban has 99,987 original miles on its  350 V8 and 3 speed automatic transmission.  This was the last year for a factory carburetor and no emission controls in 3/4 ton and up trucks; which means it has a factory dual exhaust without catalytic converters.  The Suburban  features a factory towing package and 40 gallon gas tank.  Factory luggage rack.  Front and rear air and heat (air conditioner compressor functions properly  but needs recharged).  The four-wheel drive works flawlessly both in high and low range.  Recent upgrades include:

·         New headliner

·         New tires with less than 3,000 miles

·         Upgraded to dual master cylinder

·         New windshield

·         Rebuilt front end

·         CD/mp3 compatible stereo

The Suburban body is in good shape for the year and this particular body style. The two-tone blue and silver paint shines nicely and presents very well.   The red pinstripes are straight and un-cracked.   There are a few spots where the paint is starting to bubble over the driver’s side front and rear wheel well arches.  Also the paint is starting to separate from the body behind the rear wheel wells just above tail pipes.  Just under the driver’s side long rear window there is a small rust spot starting.  Inside both front fender wells there is a small hole in the factory under-coating.  Behind that you can see factory blue painted metal.   If you are familiar with this body style suburban, these are all the typical problem spots; however none of the areas are very advanced and all-in-all it is in great shape.  There is an un-creased dent on the driver’s front door where the towing mirror mount meets the door.  It could be easily popped out by simply removing the interior door panel and pushing it out.  All of these issues are featured in the photo section.  I have listed all of the “problems” I can think of.

This suburban is very mechanically sound.  It starts every time and runs down the road straight and true.  Drive it anywhere in comfort and style.  It will make someone a great family truck, camping vehicle, work horse, first car……?  Try to find another 3/4 ton 4x4, this well maintained for such a low price.  We are selling it simply because we have run out of garage space and have two other Suburbans.  Located  in central Illinois, feel free to come and take a look if you are in the area.  Email, call or text (Six 1 eight) three 67 two eight 6 three with any questions.

C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."

2014 Corvette Stingray meets Tesla Model S in drag strip showdown

Wed, Jan 29 2014

They come from two different worlds and have little in common. The Tesla Model S P85 is the sportiest version of this paradigm-punching sedan from California, while the 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 is a performance-enhanced version of Michigan's recently-updated sports car stalwart. The West Coast car seats five adults and eats electrons like Popeye eats spinach, the Easterner has two passenger places and, surprisingly, sips gasoline like one might bourbon. An attribute they do happen to share is extreme quickness. This similarity is all the excuse Drag Times needed to set the vehicles beside each other at the Palm Beach International Raceway for a bit of mano-a-mano quarter-mile combat. Fortunately enough, cameras were rolling for each of two bouts down the blacktop and the results recorded for our edification and enlightenment. The winner? We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say it's really, really close. How close? Scroll below and watch the video for yourself. Just be warned, the results may surprise you.

GM follows Ford and Honda in skipping SEMA

Fri, May 20 2022

The list of automakers skipping SEMA has become longer. First reported by Muscle Cars and Trucks, and confirmed to us by a company representative, General Motors will not have an official presence at the aftermarket show. It joins Ford and Honda in leaving the show. It will be a large hole in the show, with the GM brands typically filling a significant swath of available show space in one of the main halls. GM hasn't provided much explanation for the move, either. The GM representative provided Autoblog with the same statement that Muscle Cars and Trucks got: "GM has made the decision not to participate in the 2022 SEMA Show. The SEMA show has always inspired us, and accessories and performance parts remain an important part of our business." We also asked if we would see any sort of announcements around the time of the show — Ford said it has plans to share some things around that time — however, the GM representative said that the company has no immediate plans for announcements. Certainly things could change between now and the November show, though. SEMA had previously noted that other exhibitors would help fill in some of the space vacated by these major OEMs. Another OEM, Volkswagen, is returning to the show after an absence, which will also help with the display deficit.
