Sadly due to regulations in our community this truck is not allowed and we are forced to sell it.

I had to move this from our location as it is not allowed in our neighborhood. I had done quite a bit of work already to it but I wanted to put a new air filter and some more gas in it for a new owner, after getting the air filter I started to drive over for gas and as I pulled out the truck the spider gears and rear carrier broke, I put it on a trailer and took it out to another location. Engine under 3000 miles as well as trans. You cannot build this truck for under $20k.

Take note that I removed the chunks out of the rear and it can still be driven onto a trailer.


The bad is the rear spider gears and carrier need replaced

Stereo amp removed fuse as the wiring needs fixed or amp replaced

Air compressor was working for rear air bags and has now stopped, I have not tested why yet as we had to move it that night from our home to another location and I have not been back out to check it.


I cannot verify the condition of this vehicle, that is up to the buyer, I have done my best to describe it the best that I can which includes checking what I have. There are no warranties and the vehicle is sold as is where as. I have only owned this truck for 2 months and only drove it from a little less than a month. I went through the truck and replaced anything that I found was needed to make it safe to drive and anything that needed replaced that I found. On a title check you can see an odometer issue, I know of none, it was most likely an error but in any event what is most important is to know that the gauges were replaced and do not represent the vehicle mileage, the gauges do however represent the engine/trans mileage. Often times when an odometer rolls over it may get the 1 missed in front of the other 5 numbers or some only have 5 numbers and thus possibly that owner did not notice. I cannot say, just commenting on what I see on the title/vehicle history and wanted to be clear about it as there is nothing hidden I say that because the factory dash is not in the truck other then the vin number section, the rest was covered with a custom made dash, custom switches, and custom shark digital gauges.

Truck must be sold, as much as I would love to keep it we are not allowed to store it at our home.

Truck has a clear title and is registered in my name, street legal.

Seats could use to be replaced and would look really good with a set of 4 recaro or corbeau bucket seats in it. I had many things I was going to do with it but sadly it must go and I must move on.

When it was drivable (rear axle not having problems) it ran and drove perfect and was very fun to drive. If you do NOT like attention then this is not the truck for you, I say this because everyone will stop and talk to you about it, everyone will stare at it, everyone will point at it, so if you do like attention this is the truck for you.


Please no games, vehicle must go and must be paid for right away as we are looking to purchase a home and need it to be sold right away.

How real is the Chevy Bolt EV and will it really cost $30,000?

Tue, Jan 13 2015

"This is us bragging that we can do this kind of car." That's how Michael Simcoe, GM's executive director for NA exteriors, described the Chevy Bolt EV concept, which made a surprise appearance at the Detroit Auto Show today. While there was talk of a 2017 production debut, this is for sure a concept vehicle. But that means the ideas behind the vehicle are perhaps more important than the details. For example, no one is talking about what size battery might appear in a production Bolt, but Simcoe would talk about how rapid progress in battery improvements made it possible for GM to make the bold Bolt declaration that promises 200 miles and a price tag of around $30,000 (after incentives). But if the Bolt makes it to market, it won't be until 2017 (as rumored) or later, is it really fair to promote the car as being available with a federal tax credit? For one thing, credits for plug-in vehicles may change in the next few years, but if the laws stay the same, each manufacturer is limited to 200,000 vehicles before the credits start to decline. GM is justifiably proud that it's sold over 70,000 Volts thus far, but with a new model coming out later this year and a few years to go until the Bolt potentially arrives, GM could be pushing right up against that 200,000 limit when the Bolt goes on sale. But Volt executive chief engineer Pam Fletcher told AutoblogGreen that, "We're just trying to take some of the confusion out." "Think about talking to the average consumer," she said. "First, going through the explanation of how the federal tax credit was set up, how it's being used and so on. [In the industry, we] have the luxury of understanding the nuances of that regulation, but right now people who aren't in the marketplace, they don't have the luxury of all that. It's already hard to communicate the details so we gave them data in a way that is what they're used to seeing." There was one question that drove the two-year Bolt gestation and design period, Simcoe said: What does a better battery offer a vehicle designer? "We've got a number of spaces we play in for powertrain technology and obviously electrification is one of them," he said. "With Volt 1 and then the Spark EV, with that development and batteries getting better for us, we started doing some practical packaging to deliver a vehicle which was not the traditional aero form which you see around electric vehicles.

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
