1987 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4, 5.3l Ls, Dana 60, 14 Bolt on 2040-cars
Flintstone, Georgia, United States
1987 Silverado short bed 4x4, Daffron Race Innovations tuned 5.3L LS eng., 4L60E computer controlled trans., Dana 60 with new calipers, rotors, pads, Warn hubs and brake lines. Late model 14 Bolt rear axle with factory disk brakes w/emergency brake, 4.10 gear. A/C, cruise, PW, PDL, delayed wipers and dual tanks. Everything works except for the windshield washer. Very straight rust free body. All panels line up very well. Doors close very good and do not have to be slammed as is common with these trucks. Glass is very good w/no scratches on side glass that is common on these trucks. Factory sliding glass back window. 2 1/2 Skyjacker Softride Suspension system which includes front and rear springs (no lift blocks). Almost new 33x12.50x16.5 BF Goodrich tires. Turbine wheels powder coated gloss black. Racepak digital dash. Kenwood CD player with Kicker 6x9 in cab corners and 3 1/2 speakers in dash and a powered sub under the seat. Dash is new. All the mirrors are in great shape, no dents or broken/cracked mirrors. Right side mirror is the correct curved mirror with "Objects may be closer than they appear" printed on it. It needs the front gear (3.73) replaced to match the rear. It needs emergency brake cables made, I can help you with this as I know a company that can make them and I have the originals they will need in order to make new cables. Interior needs the headliner replaced, the trim repainted and a few miscellanous trim peices. The right side window works but is very slow. Front bed panel is bent slightly, good body man may be able to straighten it. It needs another tailgate (included at "Buy it now" price) as this one is bowed. It's hard to tell from the outside but it is visible looking inside the bed. Other than those 2 pieces the bed appears to be great. No dents visible is the wheel wells or from underneath the truck. You may have noticed as you follow one of these old trucks they appear to be riding down the road sideways. It looks that way because the factory rear axle is 4 inches narrower than the front axle. Well, not on this truck. The rear axle is only 1/4 inch narrower than the front and looks great from behind and while driving it, you can actually see the rear tires in the side mirror. I'm very detail orientated and have worked out many of the details but, as I have listed, it's got a couple more that need to be completed. Truck runs and drives GREAT and is very reliable. It's never left me sitting and its been my daily driver for the last 4 years. Paint it and do some minor interior work and you would have a real head turner. I've bought a newer truck and my wife won't let me keep them both. Chris 423-605-0806

Here's why automakers roll out those Texas-themed pickup trucks
Thu, Sep 29 2016Every year, automakers with a full-size truck link make a big show of the Texas State Fair, usually involving a reveal of a new model. Sometimes they show a whole new truck, and other times a special edition centered on the Lone Star state. While some people might write this off as a quirk of the industry, others might be wondering, "What's the big deal with Texas?" As it turns out, part of the big deal with Texas is big truck sales. According to Dave Sullivan, product analysis manager at AutoPacific, Texas buys more trucks than any other state in the country. It's not a small margin either. Edmunds.com, one in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. The state also accounts for 15 percent of the country's large truck sales, which is more than twice that of California, the second largest truck market in America. Even when you break down sales only in Texas, trucks are a huge piece of the pie - Sullivan says that a quarter of new vehicle sales in Texas are trucks. One in five trucks sold in the US are sold in Texas. But it's not just sales that make truck builders give attention to Texas. As Sullivan explained, "Pickups are life in Texas." Both he and Hugh Milne, marketing and advertising manager for the Chevy Silverado line, said that trucks are key fixtures in Texas society, as both work trucks and luxury vehicles (or Texas Cadillacs as Milne called them). Milne said Texas is so important in the truck market that if you want to be successful in the rest of the country, "you've got to be successful in Texas." As for the State Fair, it has become a prime location for reveals in part because of the importance of the Texas market and because of how big the fair is. Milne also revealed that the State Fair also hosts its own auto show, so it's an ideal venue for a vehicle introduction. So there you have it. Why do truck builders obsess over Texas? It's because Texas obsesses over trucks. When you have one market that loves your product that much, you give it the attention it deserves.

2021 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon facelift spied
Fri, Sep 20 2019The Chevy Colorado and its GMC Canyon twin have been on sale for a good long time now, and while things move a little more slowly on the truck side when it comes to facelifts and model changeovers, it seems like it’s about time. So itÂ’s no surprise to see some lightly camouflaged trucks running around ahead of what appears to be a minor refresh for the 2021 model year. Starting with the Colorado, it appears to have a bowtie hiding behind some camo in the center of the grille, which otherwise looks like the no-bowtie option you can get on 2019-and-up trucks. It could be that Chevy is keeping the no-bowtie grille design but allowing a bowtie to grace it, or it could be misdirection. Either way, the grille pattern adds a bit of flair to the otherwise staid front end design. There also appears to be a bit more shape to the lower air inlet, with echoes of some of the lower fascias of its bigger Silverado stablemate. The Canyon, on the other hand, shows more extensive front-end changes. At first glance, it looks to emulate some variants of the GMC Sierra, which would make sense given those modelsÂ’ changes for the 2020 model year. In particular, this Canyon has hints of Sierra HD, being more square and monolithic than the regular Sierra 1500s, although itÂ’s a little hard to tell with the camo covering the edges of the grille. It could certainly also adopt more rounded corners like the 1500s. Either way, itÂ’s more vertical and thereÂ’s less differentiation between the upper grille and lower opening. ThereÂ’s nothing in the way of changes around the sides or back, and while there may be some minor changes inside, we arenÂ’t expecting any. The word around town is that this isnÂ’t a full facelift, but rather a minor front end tweak thatÂ’ll just be a regular part of the model-year changeover.Â
Chevrolet considering midsize crossover to slot between Traverse and Equinox
Mon, Jan 9 2017Crossovers are the new hotness, and automakers are looking to cash in by offering a size and shape for every customer. With Chevrolet's debut of the new 2018 Traverse in Detroit, which grew ever so slightly compared to the first-generation model, there is now a midsize-crossover-sized hole between the three-row Traverse and the compact Equinox. When asked about that obvious space, a Chevrolet spokesperson told us the company is looking into the possibility of expanding its crossover lineup. It should be a relatively simple thing to do, since all it would take is reskinning and rechristening the GMC Acadia with a bow tie, and we all know how much GM loves platform sharing. Although they're now different sizes, the new Acadia and Traverse still use the same platform; the Acadia is now on a short-wheelbase version of the C1XX while the Traverse uses long-wheelbase C1XX parts. A short-wheelbase Chevy built on the C1XX likely would be differentiated visually from both the Acadia and the larger Traverse. It may seem like flooding the lineup with more and more models would cannibalize sales of existing ones, but Chevrolet said it would rather have customers stay within the brand rather than going to another automaker. There have been whispers that some form of the Blazer name (possibly TrailBlazer) may make a return on a midsizer, but if it does don't expect an old-school body-on-frame SUV like the old one. In the end, if Chevy builds it, customers will come. Related Video:
