This is a 1988 Chevrolet short wheel base step side truck that has been heavily customized. I will try to list everything that has been done to it. A friend of mine has a body shop locally that all the custom work was done at. He is we'll know around the area for doing custom vehicles. It has an excellent paint job using 3800 base clear high end paint. The inside of the bed looks as good as the outside. It has borla exhaust on and corvette tips and headers. It has an msd ignition along with a 6a box. It has a cold air intake and a stage 2 jegs performance chip. Has all new msd wires. Has all new sensors( all that could be put on the engine). It has a new crate LS 350 motor that has a alittle over 7,000 miles. It has always has Mobil one synthetic oil. It has all new brakes and brake lines. Along with booster and master cylinder. It has a new battery.  It has been lowered 4 in the front and 6 in the back. It has an all belltech drop suspension with two inch drop spindles. It has new bell tech coil springs and all new euro thane bushings. It has new ball joints. It has a steel cowl hood. It has a new steel roll pan. Brand new 5 spoke 18 x 8 wheels and new v rated tired with a new spare tire. It has LED tail lights and new grill with a billet bow tie emblem. It has new one piece HID headlights and running lights. It has new side mirrors. New step pads on the bed. It has all new infinity component speakers with a 10 inch infinity subwoofer as well as an infinity amp and clarion equalizer. Also has another amp that runs the infinity speakers that replaced the factory ones. It has a new CD player with Bluetooth and mp3 with remote. It has all new carpet and headliner. It has a new serpentine belt because we disabled the smog pump. And that is kinda where the customization got stopped. I was having this done for my son as it's the kind of work I did before I broke my neck many years ago. Before the inside of truck was finished we found out that out son had a brain tumor. It was driven by my wife for about 6 months because we didn't want to get rid of it. I have come to the realization that we we no longer need the truck. Now on to the things that didn't get customized. The seats which are in good shape.it is a 60-40 bench seat that came out of a new truck. We were gonna have it covered in leather along with all of the dash and door panels. The ac work and blows cold air works but it needs a new o ring on the evaporator line. It leaks down in about two days. There are probably some other things that were upgraded that I just can't seem to think of at the moment.  I have way more money invested in the truck than I am asking for it. It is also for sale locally. If there are any questions please feel free to call at 205-625-6568 or send a message.

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.

GM recalls 64k 2011-2013 Volts over carbon monoxide fears, stop sale on Trax and Encore

Thu, Mar 12 2015

General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts from the 2011-2013 model years in the US and an additional 13,937 exported examples because of fears over carbon monoxide buildup. According to a statement, if a Volt is accidentally left on while running on electric power, its internal combustion engine would eventually kick on to charge on the battery. If this happens in an enclosed space, then carbon monoxide can fill the area, leading to a potential exposure to the dangerous gas. According to GM, there have been two injuries reported due to this issue. To fix the problem, there's a software update to limit the time the vehicle can idle. According to Automotive News, GM is also issuing a stop sale on about 2,300 examples of the 2015 Chevrolet Trax and Buick Encore. In these compact crossovers, it's possible that the steering column assembly could touch the power steering circuit board and cause damage over time. This could potentially cause the system to stop working. Automotive News indicates that the automaker is still working with the supplier to get the necessary parts to repair this problem. General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts in the U.S. from the 2011-2013 model years to implement a software update that will limit the amount of time a vehicle can be left idling in the "on" or "run" position. If a driver exits the vehicle and inadvertently leaves the vehicle "on" by failing to react to cues and warning chimes emitted by the vehicle, the vehicle's high-voltage battery will drain after a period of time and the gasoline engine will begin to run. If the gas engine runs for a long period of time within an enclosed space, such as a garage, carbon monoxide could build up. GM is aware of two injuries, both related to carbon monoxide build up. The total recall population including Canada and exports is 64,186. Related Video:

Do you guys like trucks?

Wed, Jan 17 2018

Do you guys like trucks? If the answer is yes, boy do we have the show for you! The 2018 North American International Auto Show is lousy with 'em. Yeah, we saw the new Ram 1500, Chevy Silverado and Ford Ranger, but that's just scratching the surface. There are big trucks, little trucks, clean trucks, dirty trucks, old trucks, new trucks, red trucks, blue trucks. It's like a Dr. Seuss book. Anyway, we made a little video for you truck nuts (see what I did there?). Check it out above, and if you're looking for more serious coverage of the Detroit Auto Show, we've got it, along with a ton of images and other videos from the show floor. Enjoy!
