Here is a nice example of a 1985 Chevrolet 1/2 ton Short Wide, and it started as a very honest NO RUST truck, so there isnt any patch work done on the Rockers or Cab Corners. This truck drives great, and is very very tight, with no surprises. There is about 8k on the New 350 Engine and New Turbo 350 Transmission, and the motor is equipped with Holley Carb and Intake, along with all new accessories. The AC/Heat is All New, and this includes Compressor, Hoses/Lines, Evaporator Core, Heater Core, ect, so all is good there. The Exhaust system is also new from one end to the other, so this truck basically needs nothing, and is ready for daily use.
The Paint Job is very nice, and it is painted back to its Original Red, so there isnt any jambing or chipping issues. The Paint is completely Wet Sanded and Buffed, so it is very deep and a Mirror Finish, which gives the truck an extra clean appearance. It has been driven since painted less than a year ago, but there are only a few really small chips, so the paint still looks brand new. The truck is Lowered 2in in the front, and 4in in the rear, really sits nice on the Original Rally wheels. The Lowering did not affect the driving of the truck in anyway, but it looks so much better.
I chose not to put the stick on side moulding back on the truck, and if that is what you want, you can add it back on at any time. The truck is basically original at this point, all the way down to the uncut dash for a radio, and with the exception of the truck being lowered. The interior is very clean, and it still has the original carpet, so there might be a faded spot here or there, but it isnt noticable at all. The Power windows work, along with all the interior light and instrument cluster, so the interior is completely functional and very clean.
There arent too many of these trucks that hasnt been abused and patched up, so if you are looking for this style Short Bed, you will have a hard time finding a better example for the money.. This truck comes with a bunch of recipts, and it also couldnt be built for the asking price, so rather than take the time to find a decent example to build, you can save some serious money and time with this purchase.
Please feel free to ask any questions you might have, and I will do my best to answer them to the best of my ability.. If you need any additional pics or information, just ask, and I will get them for you asap. There is nothing to hide on this truck, so just let me know if there is anything you might need to make in informed decision.. I have also included a YouTube walk around video link below, so do take a look at that also. I have a 100 percent rating on my Classic Car sales, along with some nice feedback after delivery, because I do my best to be as honest as possible.

GM diesel pickups first to undergo extra EPA, CARB testing
Tue, Sep 29 2015The effects of Volkswagen's long-running diesel emissions evasion are starting to spill over to other automakers, but General Motors is taking things in stride. The 2.8-liter, four-cylinder Duramax in the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon is the first engine to get extra scrutiny by the Environmental Protection Agency and the California Air Resources Board, Automotive News reports. Rather than just the usual in-lab test, it's also being checked on the road. However, the extra evaluation shouldn't have any impact on when the trucks with his mill hit dealers later this fall. "We're in our final stages of the EPA certification, and our launch is on track," Chevy spokesperson Otie McKinley tells Autoblog. The four-cylinder diesel in the trucks makes 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and the automaker is touting low NOx production. In the announcement for the Colorado's specs, the company calls it "the cleanest diesel truck engine ever produced by General Motors." The tech includes exhaust gas recirculation to lower combustion temperatures and improve emissions. There's also a urea tank like on the bigger diesels for full-size trucks, and it gets refilled in time with oil changes. An indication on the instrument panel lets drivers know when that's needed, too. Even with the more demanding testing, the company doesn't seem too worried about the four-cylinder passing. "Part of our development process is on-road and off-road [laboratory] testing," Scott Yackley, Chevy Trucks assistant chief engineer, said to Automotive News. In the wake of the VW scandal, the EPA has pledged more rigorous testing. Before, on-road emissions evaluations were largely limited to heavy-duty vehicles, but the agency has decided to apply the checks more often to other models. There's also now greater cooperation with Canadian authorities.
Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Spark EV in Canada, Audi to use Valeo electric supercharger
Mon, Apr 13 2015The Chevrolet Spark EV will become available to retail customers in Canada. "We're expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC," says Chevrolet's Chris Hay. Chevrolet has not yet released pricing for the Spark EV in Canada. In the US, the Spark EV is available in California, Oregon and Maryland. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.

'Baby Driver' is a car chase movie set to music
Mon, Mar 13 2017The Fate of the Furious is certainly the 6,000-pound SUV in the garage of automotive movies, but that doesn't mean gearheads are starved for options. The upcoming film Baby Driver looks to be a winner for car guys, featuring exciting chases with cars including a "hawk-eye" Impreza WRX, a Dodge Challenger, and a 1980s Chevy Caprice. The movie is written and directed by Edgar Wright, whom you may know as the man behind movies such as Sean of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. And based on the two trailers released so far, seen above and below, it's about a young man by the name of Baby, who is a getaway driver for criminals. He's apparently the best in the business, and the secret to his success is the music he listens to while he's driving. He also wants out, but his boss, played by Kevin Spacey, has no intention of letting him go. Spacey is one of a number of major stars in the film, including Jamie Foxx and John Hamm. The driving action shown in the trailers definitely looks entertaining. The WRX is seen doing an array of drifts and J-turns. There is some driving precision on display here that wouldn't be out of place in a Gymkhana video. And it looks like Wright's attention to detail in his shots and transitions, as well as some solid comedy relief, are all going to be present. The film comes out this August.
