ITEM: 1990 Chevrolet 454ss truck well preserved in the Tucson, AZ desert.
CONDITION: This is my dream truck, that unfortunately I don't have time or money to complete. This is a true 454ss (see pic of title that has 454 in vin) The previous owner had the engine completely rebuilt top to bottom 2 years ago, transmission serviced at the same time, and complete new exhaust fitted. I can't find any rust on this truck besides extremely light surface rust where undercoating paint wore off. There is no bondo on this truck, and body is extremely straight and free of rust, including the bed. This truck runs very strong and is extremely fast. A/C blows, but isn't cold. Headlights and blinkers work well. Windows and door locks work. All gauges work except for the oil pressure gauge. When I bought the truck, I had new grey leather seats put in.(in one picture of the seats, my camera had something on the lens and it looks like the headrest of the seat is damaged. This is just my camera. The seats are brand new and in excellent condition.) I also had new serpentine belt installed, new alternator, plugs and wires installed, a tune up including resetting and calibrating the computer, replacement of the coolant temp sensor, radiator flush, new fuel pump, new fuel injectors, air filter, and an oil change. I don't have receipts for any of the work, but you will easily understand once you see it and drive it. Please note, that I am selling this truck as is, and have disclosed what I know to be true of the owner's original work history , and the other work I personally had done.
ISSUES: As you can see in the pictures, this truck needs a paint job. The body is extremely straight and has no bondo or repairs but there is a small ding right above the passenger side headlight where the hood meets the grill. It's about the size of a silver dollar and you can see it in the pics. The interior needs attention, including the headliner and inside door panels need recovering( I do have two same year doors with good grey skins I didn't install yet that you can have free.) The original owner painted the dash black....why? Also, the driver's side door is sprung(wont fully latch). The mechanism is shot, but again I have the other doors(these doors also have complete power windows, door locks, etc including patch cords). I took the truck to emissions and passed the loaded test, but not the idle test. The man who just tuned it up and reset the computer said it would need a new catalytic converter and quoted me $167.00 installed including tax. I am not a mechanic. I am actually a school teacher. Therefore, whoever buys this truck needs to know that it will need work to pass emissions, may have issues I am not aware of and is sold as is. Again, see my feedback, and know that I acknowledge everything I can about an item for sale and people are always happy. Thanks.
SHIPPING: I will not arrange shipping, and the truck must be picked up at my house in Tucson, AZ.
PAYMENT: I accept PAYPAL for a down payment and will take the balance in cash upon pickup. Please make full payment and plans to pick up vehicle within 7 days.

Stolen '57 Chevy Returned To Owner After 30 Years
Fri, Feb 21 2014Three decades after it was stolen, a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has been returned to a Northern California man - in better shape than when he originally owned it. The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports Ian "Skip" Wilson was shocked to get a call from the California Highway Patrol informing him that his long-lost Chevy was taken off an Australia-bound cargo ship. The 65-year-old says the car has had a lot of work done on it since it disappeared from his Lake County home in 1984. It was returned with a monogrammed interior, 17-inch racing wheels, rack-and-pinion steering and a 350-horsepower V-8 engine. The retired mechanic says the two-door was in sorry shape when he bought it for $375 in 1975 with plans for fixing it up.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette
Thu, 14 Feb 2013When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
