 Great old Chevy pickup...  use it as an occasional hauler / rider or do a full/partial restore for show/fun.   I've owned this truck for about 6 years, put about 6 thousand miles on her...  bought it from an old friend who owned it for almost 40 years, bought it from the original owner.   She's all original except for the wheels, tires and replacement exhaust (which is routed as original) and, yes, the original AM radio works.   When I bought it, I did and/or had quite a bit of work done to prep it for the drive from Denver to Tucson...  that's right, drove it, didn't ship it.   I had the front end gone over, lower ball joints, a tie rod end or two, alignment, plus water pump, hoses, tune up, wheel bearing repack, new seals, steering box adjust, valve adjust, etc.  Did the brakes all around, wheel cylinders, master cylinder, a couple brake lines.   Got replacement tires and wheels, a new gas tank (old one was starting to rust), a new windshield (installer took a beating on that one), battery, 'temporarily' topped the old bed boards (still haven't gotten around to permanently replacing those), transmission rebuild w/clutch, replacement exhaust all the way back, all fluids, filters, a bulb or two, etc and off we went.    Drove the whole 1000 miles or so (back way, two lanes) replacing just one taillight bulb (missed that one)...  great fun.   Complements all along the way.    Over the past 6 years, I've done things as I've had time...  left front fender, all side window glass, another battery (heat here is hell on batteries), speedometer rework, carburetor rebuild, clutch slave cylinder, valve adjust, valve cover gasket, oil and filter at least every 6 months, regardless of miles.   She's been garaged most of the time the past 6 years, all of the past 5.   Starts every time, with appropriate choke/pump, and does whatever asked...  haul grandkids on hay bails for trick-or-treating, dirt/gravel/wood occasionally, a trip to the dump once in a great while, or just a ride for the memories.   Drives down the road way better than my motorhome...  a little play in the steering (probably needs another steering box adjust) but goes straight down the road with no complaints/pull/wiggle/shake...  just like they used to when maintained right.   I have over $7000 in her without my labor...  bid early and often and she could be yours for far less.    I just don't have the time to do her right...  hopefully you do.

 She still runs fine, and doesn't burn any oil, not a bit of smoke.   But, like nearly all old Chevy (and other) trucks, she leaks oil.   Probably drops about 3/4 to 1 quart between oil changes, mostly while running or just after, mostly from the front main seal and some from the rear main seal.   If you zoom in, you can probably see the caked-on-oil on the undercarriage beneath the engine.

Fullsize GM SUVs have a problem that's making owners sick

Thu, Dec 31 2015

Some fullsize SUV owners are getting sick, thanks to a buffeting and vibration problem in 2015 model year examples of the Chevy Tahoe and Suburban, Cadillac Escalade, and GMC Yukon. According to owners' complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the issue can vary from an annoying vibration inside the cabin to an experience so severe that it leads to dizziness and headaches. General Motors is aware of the complaints, but the fix isn't so simple. According to spokesperson Tom Wilkinson to Autoblog, the company "has been tracking this issue for a while." The problem has a fairly low incidence rate, but when it does occur the issue can be "uncomfortable and annoying for owners." There's no precise cause for the issue, Wilkinson claims, and in some cases, simply balancing the tires or changing the door seals can make it go away. However, not all of the fixes are so simple. AutoGuide dug deep into the problem and discovered a GM preliminary information bulletin that advised dealers to remove the headliner and to check the roof's bonds to the bows that go across the vehicle. However, that document included a note that the solution might not entirely eliminate things. According to AutoGuide, adding Dynamat insulation to the roof sometimes helped the problem. A GM spokesperson also told AutoGuide the company fixed the problem at the end of the 2015 model year, and didn't go into any more detail. This roof issue seems linked to some of the worst droning in these SUVs. According to one complaint from a 2015 Suburban owner to NHTSA: "Roof will not remain attached to the roof bows. This causes the buffeting similar to a window being down when all are up. The results span from annoying to painful." A 2015 Yukon owner claims to have another alleged cause for the problem in a NHTSA complaint from February 2015. This person brought their SUV to the dealer seven times over the course of four weeks for vibrations. The dealer replaced the driveshaft, suspension components, and more, but nothing worked. According to an engineer to the service adviser: "In an effort to prevent roll overs, they designed the frame and body mounts too stiff. There are 40 engineers working on issues, they have no solutions that work across the board." Wilkinson told Autoblog that GM is working with customers on an individual basis to rectify things. Since these are newer vehicles, dealers should also fix the problem under warranty.

Camaro driver clocked at 171 miles per hour

Wed, Apr 13 2016

Chevy's 2016 Camaro SS is a fantastic piece of automotive engineering. It is also, apparently, very, very fast. This latter fact was perfectly illustrated when, on April 8, a Camaro SS driver was nailed in Two Harbors, Minnesota for doing 171 mph. According to WFAA, the unnamed speed demon was flying down Highway 61 near Two Harbors when Hermantown, MN Deputy Police Chief Shawn Padden clocked him at an eye-watering 171 mph. He then recorded the speeder at 168 and 141. At the time, Deputy Chief Padden was working with Minnesota State Patrol on an anti-DWI program called "Toward Zero Deaths". Padden, who was interviewed by the Duluth News Tribune, said he was surprised at the driver's sheer speed. "When he went by me, it was a blur," Padden told the News. "You get used to seeing people going 65 or 70 and what that looks like. But I've never seen anything like this. It's like a rocket on wheels." Fadden chased the Camaro down eventually, but it took some doing. To catch the Camaro, he pushed his Dodge Charger Pursuit to 135 mph just to get into range so the Camaro could see his emergency lights. The speeding driver was ticketed for careless driving, but may lose his license due to a Minnesota law that gives courts the option of revoking licenses for drivers caught doing more than 100 mph.
