Envelope Full of Receipts!!!!!

 

The truck started as Z56 Police Pursuit Package Tahoe. If you google Z56 Tahoe you will see this was the best stock chassis to start with, HD brakes, HD suspension, lower ride height, and 2WD are some of the factory Z56 features.
On the mechanical side, I tossed the factory iron block 5.3L and replaced it with a Corvette LS1 5.7 Aluminum short block with factory flat top pistons, New Clevite Bearings, ARP Rod Bolts, 241 Heads with Partriot Gold Double Springs, GM MLS Head Gasket, Comp Cams custom grind 230/232 .601 lift cam, Melling LS6 High Flow Oil Pump, Cloyes LS2 Timing Set, All new GM factory replacement gaskets from the dealer. The engine is at about 10:1 compression, tuned for 93 pump gas, and runs great and makes about 450-500HP crank, soon to be higher with a little more tuning.
Exhaust starts with polished Stainless OBX Long Tube Headers to V-Band clamps connecting it to a full Stainless 3in true dual over the axel out the rear to polished Stainless SLP 4in tips running through Stainless Magnaflow straight through mufflers and a DynoMax Stainless Cross-Flow Muffler (X-Pipe). This exhaust was all done right, mandrel bends, all stainless hardware and stainless wire was used for welding. This will last forever and sounds amazing, nice rumble down low that wakes up when you get on it.
The rear end was replaced with 4:10 gears and an Eaton posi unit, Installed by a professional and is what Eaton calls their "Bullet-Proof" rear end.
The Transmission was rebuilt. It shifts awesome, nice and firm and does not slip at all. Should last for many years and the transmission computer was tuned along with everything else to handle the added power.
The brakes were all just replaced with ceramic pads all the way around and new calipers in the front. This truck does have the Heavy Duty braking package and stops with lots of power.

Starting front to back with the SS front bumper, then the SS grills, next the body color header panel, then the clear corner lenses, and hide-away fog lights. I added the HID 8000K headlights, they are in proper projector housings with proper cut-offs that will light up the road and not blind oncoming traffic. Next was to shave any body molding, clear the roof, and color match the door handles. I also ceramic painted the calipers and added Chevrolet high temp caliper decals. The look of this truck is 2nd to none and a real eye catcher. 1 of a kind and receive complements all the time.

Now for the "Good News/Bad News" section...

The Good:... 
You have a truck with a newer engine, lots of power that is going to last a really long time because it has all now quality parts. Transmission has been rebuilt and tuned for the power, so it will last for many years to come. The rear end internals are all brand new too and with performance parts. The entire drivetrain is rebuilt or new and is ready for years and years of long term reliable service. The truck is still a 2006 and is pretty new. I have used "Rust Proofing" on the underside of the truck, and it is mostly rust free although it is a Buffalo vehicle and rust proofing last 2yrs at best here, I recommend doing it again next winter if it is something you care to do. The truck has never had a trailer hitch and never been used for towing or heavy loads. I have the title clean and clear in hand with no leins. I have almost $6K in receipts for most of the work and parts that have been put on this truck. The brakes are all new within the past month, and the carpet is brand new.

The Bad:....
Minor crack in the windsheild up above the rear view mirror. The front bumper is "a good 10 footer" it has at this point more touch-up paint on it than actual paint (not really that much, but a lot). The paint all around has some scratches. The heated seats are not yet wired, I have not had the time since I put the new seats in. The rear wiper does not work, and I never cared to figure out why because I don't use it anyway. The truck has 165K miles on it, I know it's high for the year, but you would never guess it looking at it, and the drivetrain has low miles on it now. Will need at least the idler arm and pitman arm replaced before it will pass inspection.

Car is being sold as-is but please do not hesitate to ask me any questions. I Can take additional pictures for interested parties if needed but the pictures of it already posted make a pretty good representation of the condition. I respond the fastest that I am able to

How long will the 'golden age' of performance last?

Sat, Mar 26 2016

High-powered sports and luxury cars were everywhere at the New York Auto Show, prompting the obvious question for enthusiasts: How long will this golden age of performance last? Industry leaders have some time before regulations elevate the Corporate Average Fuel Economy level in 2025. Even then, they expect cars rippling with power to survive in some form. "Is it the end of an era," I don't think so," said Ola Kallenius, Daimler AG board member for Mercedes-Benz cars marketing and sales. "That performance element of individual mobility I don't think will ever go away." Kallenius, who oversaw the company's AMG division from 2010-2013, expects it to continue to grow. Last year, AMG sold a record 68,875 units around the world, an increase of 44.6 percent over 2014, with strong growth in the US, China, and Germany. Still, there's always the potential for gas to spike, and pending fuel economy regulations are looming. That could lead AMG to add electrification to its products, Kallenius said, pointing to the electric SLS as a test case. Chevy is also thinking ahead, said Al Oppenheiser, chief engineer of the Camaro. He wouldn't bite when asked about electrification for the Camaro (he did say "never say never"), but admitted in 2025 "it's going to be pretty tough to sell V8s." For now, things are rosy for muscle cars, and Chevy confidently showcased the 640-hp Camaro ZL1 in coupe and convertible form in New York. "I think that this is truly the golden age of performance," Oppenheiser said. It's hard to disagree. News & Analysis News: The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF was a show-stopper in New York. Analysis: There was a palpable energy when this RF — for Retractable Fastback — was revealed the night before the show at a trendy off-site venue near the Hudson River. Even as a parade of SUVs and flashy luxury cars rolled out the rest of the week, the Miata remained a hot topic. The Retractable Fastback is really a clever targa top, with part of the roof stowing behind the seats, adding about 100 pounds compared to the standard convertible. It makes the car more practical and arguably more attractive. The RF continues Mazda's tradition of selling the Miata with a hardtop variant. The first and second generations offered a detachable one, and a power retractable hardtop (a $1,700 option) was available on third-gen models. Judging by its reception in New York, the RF could prove to be even more popular than its predecessors.

Chevy: The Big Game

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chevrolet took an early lead for the 2015 Super Bowl advertising crown with its spot for the all-new, 4G LTE-capable Colorado pickup in a spot that simulated a problem with your TV. The stark, simple ad then states that if you're lucky enough to have an Internet-capable vehicle, like the new Colorado, you'd at least be able to stream the game. A clever, chuckle-inducing spot if there was one. Check out our full write up of the new, 2015 Colorado. Marketing/Advertising Chevrolet Truck Super Bowl Commercials Videos 2015 super bowl ad

GM reports third straight sales drop in China in 2020

Wed, Jan 6 2021

BEIJING — General Motors' vehicle sales in China fell 6.2% in 2020, as the U.S. automaker suffered a prolonged slowdown in the world's biggest auto market. GM, China's second biggest foreign automaker, delivered 2.9 million vehicles in the country last year, the company said on Wednesday, for a third straight decline in annual sales. But sales have been recovering in the second half of last year, up 12% between July and September and 14% in the final three months. GM has a Shanghai-based joint venture with SAIC Motor, in which the Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicle brands are made. It also has another Liuzhou-based venture, with SAIC and Guangxi Automobile Group, in which they make no-frills minivans and have started to make higher-end cars. Sales of its Buick brand grew 4% on the year and Wuling rose 9%, the statement said. Luxury brand Cadillac's sales increased 8%. Sales of GM's more affordable Baojun brand dropped 33% last year, while sales of its mass-market Chevrolet tumbled 30%. GM's delivery of 2.9 million vehicles in China follows 3.09 million vehicles in 2019, 3.65 million vehicles in 2018, and 4.04 million in 2017, for a three-year decrease of 28%.
