We have the paperwork from when we purchased this car in 2004 for $8,250.00 with 38,851 miles. It now has 41,228 miles. Everything is all original.

Recently done:
New paint job (original color, always been original)
8 new injectors
Starter and Fuel pump

This car was stored from 1992 - Current when not being used.

This vehicle is not in mint condition however, it was recently painted. The body is very clean. The interior could use a good bath and conditioning.  The seats do have some wear but no tears.  The floor mats have some slight discoloration (see pictures).  The car needs new weather stripping.  The horn is no longer functional.  Dash display sometimes fades out. If you tap dash it turns back on (loose wire?).  We did however spend over $4,000 in the last couple of years between new injectors and a paint job.  The motor runs fantastic.  The car runs incredibly strong with a fantastic deep V-8 growl.  The transmission shifts smoothly.  The power steering works great.  We hope to find it a good home with someone who will make her perfect and love her for a long time.

Currently it is stored away for the winter so if you are local and would like to come see it we would need a few days notice to get it out, hook up the battery,and add on collision insurance. Please, serious buyers only. We are expecting our first child in April and we have to get this car sold. This is why we have no reserve. If you have any questions please contact us through ebay or you can call Greg at 860-209-6186.

This car is for sale locally and online so this auction may end at anytime without warning.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
