1987 Chevrolet Silverado V10 Swb 4x4 Truck 52k Act Miles Rust-free Mint Cond on 2040-cars
Overland Park, Kansas, United States
Up for auction is my rust-free 1987 Chevrolet Silverado short bed SWB 1500 V10 4X4 1/2 ton pickup in Mint condition with 52,304 actual miles. I am the third owner. The second owner is 70+ years old and bought it from his older friend the original owner before he entered the rest home. The truck looks, runs and drives as new with no known problems as you would expect from a 52K actual mile truck. The truck has always been well cared for and it shows! This truck has pretty much every option which was available in 1987. Silverado trim, four-wheel drive, air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power locks, cruise control, tilt steering, dual fuel tanks, alloy wheels, engine block heater, sliding rear window etc.
Body: The truck maintains all of its original body panels which are rust free. I had a high quality repaint done on the truck right after I purchased it due to rock chips, bare metal on rocker after removing running boards and a poor quality dent repair on the driver's door by the handle to prevent any rust from happening. The truck had no prior damage or paint work other than the door. It had completely original paint other than the driver's door prior to the repaint. The pictures with the running boards were taken the day I bought it with the original paint, so you can see how nice it was to begin with. All trim, moldings and the bed were removed for the repaint so there is not overspray. The jambs and bed were not repainted since they were in such nice original condition and I wanted to retain that originality where I could. There is no variance in paint color either. The body side moldings and wheel well moldings were replaced with new. Covering the bed is a Truxedo lo pro tonneau cover which matches the tan on the truck. It is mounted with clamps so no holes were drilled for installation. A rubber bed mat is also included to protect the bed floor. Interior: The interior is in immaculate original condition including the original floor mats. The interior is completely original other than the headliner and radio. I replaced the headliner since it was sagging and the original radio was replaced by the previous owner with a period correct Alpine unit. Every feature on the truck work including cold A/C, power windows, power locks, cruise control, tilt wheel, stereo radio, all lights and all gauges. Drivetrain: The truck maintains it's original drivetrain. The original 5.7 liter 350 engine runs perfect and smooth with no leaks, oil burning, smoke or noises. The automatic overdrive 700R4 transmission functions perfectly also. It has a 3.08 axle ratio so it is a great highway cruiser. The four-wheel drive functions properly also. I just had the muffler and catalytic convertor replaced and the truck should pass emissions requirements anywhere since it puts off very little exhaust fumes. Wheels and Tires: The optional wheels are original to the truck. I had them professionally refinished by a service that dips and removes the clear coat and has the clear re-powder coated. I had them refinished since the previous owner had used the wrong type of cleaner on them and damaged the clear coat. They are as close to perfect as you will ever find. The Good Year Wrangler tires on it have approximately 4,000 miles on them and were installed the day I bought the truck since the ones on it had dry-rott. I have driven the truck approximately 4,000 miles in the past year and it performs flawlessly. I even made a 700 mile one-day trip in it with absolutely no problems or concerns. It runs and drives as new. It rides very smooth, is quiet and goes down the road straight. Everything on the truck works as it should. We have made several highway trips in it and is very comfortable. Just get on the highway and set the cruise! I receive numerous compliments every time I take it out. This truck would be great to add to any collection or even use as an everyday driver if you choose, since it is very reliable. Please ask all questions prior to bidding. I welcome and encourage you to inspect the truck by appointment prior to bidding. You will be impressed! Please call with questions or to set-up an appointment to view and test drive. Mark (913)909-1186 or e-mail through Ebay and I will answer your questions promptly. Full payment is due within 7 days of auction close and the vehicle must be picked up within 14 days of auction close unless other arrangements are agreed upon between buyer and seller prior to auction close. A $500 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction close by either Paypal or wire transfer. Payment methods for the truck are: Wire Transfer (preferred), Cash in Person or Cashier's Check (which must clear prior to vehicle possession). The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs or arrangements. I will work with your shipper of choice regarding pickup of the vehicle. The title is clear and in my name with no liens. I have only seen one truck like this in person which is nicer and it is located at Classic Parts and has less than 100 miles! |

These are 2014's best-selling cars and trucks
Tue, Jan 6 2015Now that 2014 is no more than a set of numbers on spreadsheets, at last, the grist mill gets its first real load to chew on. The number one selling vehicle in America last year was the Ford F-Series, a fact that should surprise you only if your family name is Van Winkle and your naps tend to last 38 years, which is how long the Ford pickup has ruled our buying landscape. Even though series sales were down 1.3 percent, it still racked up 753,851 units. That's 2,065.3 sales per day, every day, all year. The Chevrolet Silverado, up 10.3 percent for the year, was still a daylight second at 529,755 units. The cab-and-bed love continued into third place with the Ram 1500-3500 trucks, gaining 23.6-percent year-on-year to clock 439,789 units. The robust turnout at The Bighorn and Jeep helped Fiat-Chrysler increase its sales by 16 percent, past the two-million mark. Our number one car? The Toyota Camry, staying in first place with a 4.9-percent sales boost to 428,606 sales, trailed again by the Honda Accord at number five with 388,374 sales. Accord sales rose six percent, and if it's any consolation to Honda for coming in second - not that it needs one - it is the only manufacturer to have three vehicles in the top ten. The rest of the list: the Nissan Altima with 335,644 sales (+4.7%), the Honda CR-V with 355,019 (+10.2%), the Toyota Corolla/Matrix combo with 339,498 (+5.9%), the Honda Civic with 325,981 (-3.1%), and the Ford Fusion with 306,860 sales (+2.9%). Total sales for the year were up six percent to 16.5 million vehicles, a volume not seen since 2006, aided by a strong December that was up by 11 percent year-on-year. Ford was the top selling brand overall but sales didn't really budge from 2013, while Subaru rocketed up 21 percent to finish with 513,693 sales. At the precious end, BMW, Audi, Porsche and Land Rover all had record years, and Kelley Blue Book thinks we could be looking at 17 million sales for the next two or three years. Looks like it's time to start making hay again...

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years
Wed, Jun 25 2014A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.
