    Up for sale is a 1976 Chevrolet Stepside Scottsdale 4x4 regular cab, with dual gas tanks, saddle bag gas tanks.  This truck was purchased and shipped from California 2 summers ago and has been sitting in a garage for the past winter. The truck runs great and sounds very strong.  It has lots of torque and horsepower.  The engine is a big block that was put in by another owner many years ago, however the owner i bought it from was not sure of the exact engine size and i have had a hard time decoding it, even with the help of some guys at various automotive shops.  It has an EFI ignition, with new alternator, new battery, new starter, as well as a new steering housing unit.

The entire front end has been redone, with the exception of the front sway bar, which has brand new polyurethane bushings, clamps and bolts.  The truck is sitting on a fairly new 4 inch Pro Comp suspension lift with a four inch block in back, originial springs and Pro Comp springs up front with Pro Comp shocks all around.  I recently purchased brand new Pro Comp shocks for the entire truck and put the new ones on the front.  I have a brand new set ready to be installed on the rear along with a set of brand new rear Pro Comp 4 inch leaf springs to replace the 4 inch blocks, giving it a much better ready and reducing axle wrap!

The truck has the Stepside bed with saddle bag gas tanks, two 16 gallon tanks, one on each side.  It also has the wood bed, which was replaced about ten years ago and is showing a little bit of wear in the wood now, but mainly just needs a good sanding and staining from being weathered.  Brand new inner fender wells, along with new front bull bar and some new chrome on the front trim.  I just did an oil change and put on a K&N oil filter, along with a new Fram aif filter.  It has dual exhaust and the exhaust is in great condition, as well as sounds great!

Truck is painted blue and was repainted by previous owner, but there are areas where a little patch work was done such as on drivers side door.  There is minor bubbling in normal spots, such as along the rear taillights, small areas on the under part of the bed and some bubbling, with minor rust on the front lip of the hood.  The tailgate of the truck is showinig some signs of rust on parts of the lettering, and this seems to be the worst area.  There was minor welding done underneath both driver and passenger side floor boards, where a 6 inch by 2 inch piece was welded on each side to protect the underside where i think rust was starting to form.

Overall, the truck is in very good condition for a vehicle this old and has been well taken care of.  I have driven it up to about a 60 mile stretch at a time, as well as on highway and it runs very nicely and strong.  I haven't really gotten it above 65, just because it's a tank and i take it easy, but i'm not sure of how far, distance wise, if someone were to drive it cross country.  The gas gauge for both tanks, doesnt seem to be reading correctly, so i have just been filling it up randomly and it seems to get about 10-12 miles to the gallon, which is pretty good for this big engine.

2014 Chevrolet C7 Corvette wastes no time zooming into Jay Leno's Garage

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Where else would you expect the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to show up first? Although this time it isn't exactly in Jay Leno's Garage, Leno instead playing an away game at Brown's Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona. Nor does Leno drive the car, instead taking an 11-minute walkaround of the new American sports car with General Motors design head Ed Welburn, the same man who recently brought by a string of classic Corvettes to the talk show host's California compound.
It is, admittedly, a love-fest for the American sports car now featuring 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, but one that also features admissions about previous Corvette seats like "they were kinda rough," and the explanation that labeling the coupe "Stingray" means not having to call it "the base Corvette." On top of that, Welburn also explains the proper application of the term "dashboard." You can watch it all in the video below.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]

Wed, 15 May 2013

We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."
