You are looking at one of the coolest 1985 Chevy trucks out there. I bought this truck back in the summer from a friend of mine, he had the 454 placed in it as well as the transmission (not sure which it is) and the A/C. I took the truck home and parked it in the garage. After I drove it a few times I decided to make use of an old 2004 Saturn Vue I had laying with a bad trans, so I gutted the interior and took the front buckets from the vue and the console and had them redone in black leather/suede with the blue diamond stitching, I had the headrests embroidered with 454. I even had the original seat belts switched over and retro-fitted them to the truck. The interior is truly amazing, I replaced the steering wheel and now the truck is as comfortable to drive as you could ask for. I put a new exhaust on the truck, not extremely loud, but gives you enough rumble to know that you have some HP at your disposal. The A/C blows ice cold and the original radio works, this truck does have tilt wheel which is very handy. The previous owner had put in the headliner you see with speakers and an aftermarket radio, its a very cool idea but I could never get the radio to work correctly so I just use the original. The tires on this truck are in great shape, as are the wheels. The truck uses no oil and runs awesome. I replaced the starter just a month or so ago. I would jump in this truck and take it anywhere I wanted with no hesitation. I also replaced the radiator with a much larger radiator. The truck is a 2wd short wheel base.
I do have the title in hand and it does show a previously rebuilt and true mileage unknown. The mileage part is pretty standard in KY at least, after 10 years the state recognizes all vehicles of having potentially unknown mileage. The odometer shows 67K but I have honestly no way of knowing if that is correct or not. I bought the truck knowing these things, and to me they are irrelevant when you get to these year models and types of vehicles. I know the previous owner had this truck apart anyway replacing every nut and bolt so I had no concerns. I don't absolutely have to sell the truck so please don't compare this truck to the one in your neighbor's yard and think I am going to let mine go for what you can buy an old rust bucket for. This truck really needs to be seen to appreciate the work and detail that has been put in it. This truck with a little bit more detail on things like interior trims, dash and small things like that would be by far the sharpest one in the country. It is very classic and tasteful while still having enough comfort to make it a driver. If you have any questions feel free to call me and I will answer anything I can for you. If you are close enough to come take a look at it you are more than welcome to come by and drive it. I am a car dealer but this truck was one out of my personal cars. I love to hear offers that are within reason and I will consider trading on just about anything. I do reserve the right to end this listing at anytime due to the truck being for sale locally as well. Thanks and HAPPY NEW YEAR! Zack Jones 606-304-3199 |

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28
Mon, Jan 12 2015Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Chevy Trax engineer says GMC version possible
Mon, Dec 8 2014The Buick Encore is doing so well and its platform-mate the Chevrolet Trax has such good reviewer vibes going for it already, that a GMC version hasn't been ruled out. During the recent press launch, Automotive News asked lead engineer Al Manzor if the Trax could wear a GMC-branded suit, to which Manzor replied, "I think that is certainly possible." That's a long way from telling us anything about the probability of a GMC version of the Trax, and a legion of questions would need to be answered before it could happen. How would a GMC version be priced to leave room for the $26,465 GMC Terrain but not eat into sales of the $20,995 Trax or the $24,035 Encore? Or would that matter? Could it primarily be considered to encourage a new faction of The Yukon Set at the compact end, GMC buyers being famously committed to the marque? And of course, would there be a Denali version? It'll probably be a long while before we have any kind of answers, but if you want to see it happen, the door to your campaign of persuasion is at least ajar.
