There are a lot of trucks listed online with a pretty paint job and a drivetrain than is substandard. This truck is the exact opposite of that! I have well over $20,000 invested in this truck. It has a 5.3 vortec engine with a 4l80E transmission. The engine has an LS6 intake, 85mm throttle body, LS6 cam, ARP headstuds, LS9 head gaskets, 42lb injectors and Aeromotive fuel rails. The transmission is a 4l80E, with an Edge Racing 3000rpm lockup converter. It has a Hughes aluminum pan and an aluminum driveshaft. It has a 12 bolt rear with posi and 3.73 gears. It has power steering, disc brakes on the front with a hydroboost master cylinder and dropped spindles. All of the suspension components have been replaced, front and rear. It has CPP anti-sway bars front and rear. It has Classic Auto Air air conditioning that works great! The air conditioning and the electric engine fan is controlled by the ecm just like a factory setup. It has a custom built 21 gallon fuel tank mounted under the bed with a 255lph pump inside. I have a shop that performs LS engine swaps and this is my personal truck. It has been on more than one Hotrod power tour. It gets 20mpg with the air on and will blow the tires off of it! You can fly in and drive this truck home anywhere! It has 15x10 corvette rally wheels on all four corners with 275/60/15 tires. The speedometer does not work right now because I had an Abbott cable x box hooked to it and recently removed and sold it to replace the gauges with electronic ones. Everything else works on the truck. The truck needs rocker panels , which I have new and will include with the truck. The tailgate needs replacing , but the rest of the truck is relatively rust free. It still has all of the original body mouldings on it. It is impossible to build this truck for what I am asking for it. I fully understand that if it had a new paint job, I could get a whole lot more for it. The only reason I am selling it is because I have the opportunity to buy a car that I have always wanted. All this truck needs is a paint job and interior and it would be perfect! If you are serious about buying the truck, email me at jct332wpd@aol.com and give me your name and phone number and I will call you to answer any questions you may have. This truck is listed locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. Buyer will be responsible for pickup or shipping. Truck is sold as is with no warranty. It has been garage kept for the last 14 years. I'm sure there are a lot things I'm forgetting, so feel free to ask.

Chevy Spark EV could be coming to Midwest later this year
Tue, Jun 10 2014Ohio is not known as a hotbed of EV sales – if anything, the state is a bit anti-EV, thanks to a legislative fight against Tesla's direct sales model – but it might be on Chevrolet's short list to expand the market for the Spark EV in the near future. The latest official GM press release on the battery-powered Spark still says the car is "available exclusively in California and Oregon," but Hybrid Cars found four Ohio dealerships that list a Spark EV on their websites, with hints the the car will be coming to the Midwest state by the end of the summer. See, for example, here, here, here and here. But that's probably not going to happen, according to Randy Fox, GM communication's manager for passenger cars. Fox told AutoblogGreen that, "At this point in time, we don't have any official plans to expand the Spark EV beyond California and Oregon." The reason is that California and Oregon have the infrastructure to support EVs, Fox said, and GM wants to be able to support its EV customers. "We are continuing to look at other options," he said. "The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure" – John O'Dell John O'Dell, a senior editor at Edmunds.com, told AutoblogGreen that, "It makes sense for [GM] to expand sales and it makes sense to do it in a quiet manner, to get these vehicles on the road. The selling point for electric cars today is not advertising, it's eyeballs, it's peer exposure. If someone in my neighborhood has one and he likes it, then maybe I can trust him. So it's important to get these vehicles on the road." Chevy sold 182 Spark EVs last month, a significant increase over the 98 sold in April. That's still small potatoes compared to the 3,000+ Nissan Leaf EVs sold last month, but making the electric Spark available in Ohio, say, or GM's home state of Michigan could boost those numbers. AutoblogGreen called a few dealerships in Michigan to see what they had heard. One salesman said he didn't think GM had started production yet but the inventory manager for another dealership said the Spark EV is scheduled to arrive in the Midwest in "roughly the fourth quarter." What would GM's incentive be to offer the car in markets outside of California where it can gain ZEV credits with each sale?
GM, UAW poaching Nissan workers in Tennessee
Tue, Sep 8 2015General Motors and the United Auto Workers are going on a recruitment drive at the Spring Hill factory in Tennessee, and they're hoping to poach some skilled workers from Nissan's nearby plant in Smyrna, TN. The General and the union even bought a billboard advertising for industrial electricians near the Japanese automaker's facility, according to the Daily News Journal. The reason for the billboard was simple. "GM was short of electricians," said Tim Stannard, the president of the UAW local at Spring Hill, to the Daily News Journal. The factory currently builds the Chevrolet Equinox but has a contract to assemble the next generation of Ecotec engines and the Cadillac XT5, which replaces the SRX. Thanks to the $185-million deal, employment there is expected to double by May 2016, according to Stannard, with roughly 1,800 additional union jobs. Beyond just several billboards, GM has job postings online for the Spring Hill plant looking for workers with specific skills. There has already been some interest in the positions among Nissan employees, Stannard indicated. According to a recent study by the Center for Automotive Research, the average GM worker currently makes $58 an hour, including benefits. Comparatively, Nissan pays an average of $42 an hour with benefits. The General's number could change in the coming weeks because its contract with the UAW is about to expire, and higher wages are among the major negotiating points.
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
