Red 1985 Chevy Silverado K10 4wd 4x4 Short Bed Very Nice on 2040-cars

This is a beautiful 1985 I bought it in early 2011 from the previous owner who had it for 15 years.  The Autocheck report shows this as a 2 owner, however this is not accurate, as the previous owner did not buy it new.  It had a Goodwrench 350 and Edelbrock carb already installed when I got it. It's had a partial restoration since I've owned it, it's been painted, color sanded and buffed, and had many new parts installed, including both fuel tanks and sending units, fuel selector valve and switch, Edelbrock Performer EPS intake,  master cylinder, brake booster, heater core, blower motor, billet grill,driver's side window motor, new door/window seals, new rear glass and seal, headliner, dash cap, door hinge pins and bushings and many other miscellaneous parts.  I added the BF Goodrich MTs and Mickey Thompson wheels.  I do have the original factory rally wheels, original bench seat (needs work), and the original Silverado fender trim.  The truck has never been lifted, and the steering and suspension is all very tight.  I was in the processing of changing the interior to black, and it still needs carpet and a seat cover (the later model bench seat is in decent condition, but has some stains and a tear in the driver's side that has been sewn up).  The lumbar support in the seats is connected and functional. I was also planning to do a spray-in bedliner.  As you can see in the pictures, the inside of the bed is very straight and rust free, this truck has mainly been used as a driver and not abused.

The issues that I'm aware of are: the cruise control does not work, the a/c works and still has R12 refrigerant in it, but the compressor is a little noisy.  There are a couple places in the paint where there is some slight color variance, and I believe this is due to a different color primer being used in these areas.  It doesn't show in the pictures, and I didn't see this for several days after I got it back from being painted, however I wanted to point it out.  There are also a lot of rock chips on the rocker panels that have been touched up, you can see this in one of the pictures.  The passenger side window motor is getting weak and will need to be replaced.

GM will make Chevy Volt production announcement tomorrow

Mon, Apr 7 2014

Thing are apparently happening to get the next-generation Chevy Volt ready for public consumption. The most obvious proof is in a preview of an announcement (possibly coming tomorrow) that the two main places where General Motors gets the Volt ready -the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly Plant and the Brownstown Township battery assembly facility - will be getting big money upgrades and lots of new positions. The Hamtramck plant builds the Volt and its fancier cousin, the Cadillac ELR, as well as the global versions of the Volt. The Detroit News reports that GM will add 1,400 jobs and spend roughly $450 million at the two locations in order to build the redesigned Volt. What's less clear is exactly what the updates will bring us. We've heard that the new volt will be a 2016 model and come on a new chassis. Speculation in The Detroit News about tomorrow's announcement runs the gamut from a new compact PHEV with less electric range and a lower price (which makes sense) to an updated Volt with more electric range (heard it before) to a new all-electric vehicle (the moon shot). If there's any hints to be gleaned in the international Volts, there are also reports coming in that the Opel brand will get an all-electric vehicle that is cheaper than the Ampera. Read into that what you will. We pestered GM's Kevin Kelly on the new Volt (again) and he said (again) that he couldn't give out any more detail other than what's been reported. He just told AutoblogGreen that there will be an announcement tomorrow and that it will be about the Hamtramck and Brownstown facilities and involve the Volt. So, stay tuned.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Will Chevy Bolt get Opel badge in Europe?

Sat, Mar 7 2015

General Motors' European plug-in vehicle name may go from A to B. That's because the Chevrolet Bolt could be sold under GM's Opel brand across the Pond, Automotive News Europe says, citing people familiar with the process that it declined to identify. The Ampera, the European version of the Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle, is being phased out due to poor sales. While the Ampera won the European Car of the Year in 2012, its sales have trended well below expectations. That the Bolt would be sold as an Opel hints to us that GM expects to distribute the electric vehicle in far smaller numbers than in the US. The Bolt, which was introduced in January in its concept version at the North American Auto Show in Detroit, will have a single-charge range of about 200 miles. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGeen on Friday afternoon. The car will also have a price tag in the US of about $30,000, factoring in federal-government tax incentives. That's if those tax incentives are still around in 2017, when the Bolt is expected to debut stateside.
