I bought this Suburban about a month ago with intention to restore it to premium quality and decide not to do it due to existing projects. This will be a great truck for some one who wants to tow their show or race car to events or for business advertising. The gentleman that did the restoration has become deceased and I was able to get the details on the motor thru a friend of his. I am not sure who did the paint job, I don't think the previous owner did the paint job. The truck looks awesome 20 ft away but when you get up close, you see chips, few scratches, has clear coat peeling, ect. Not any dings or dents on the truck. The interior is fabulous, material is original style hounds tooth fabric. The dash pad is mint condition. Has new floor carpet that fits perfect. The heater control has one of the handles broken and there is a replacement controller that goes with the truck. Radio is original. It has 3 row seating, the one in the very back is not mounted, probably so race parts could be stored while traveling to race tracks. The windshield will need to be replace, no cracks but had bad wipers that scuff the windshield. The truck comes with a brand new power brake booster, bran new starter and multiple new parts to finish the interior. There is a pattern for the headliner that goes with the truck. The steering is tight and drives very nice. The truck has been dropped couple of inches and appears to have all new suspension. The rear end has a howling noise when you exceed 45 miles per hour and talking to a mechanic, repairs to the rear end will cost around $200-300 to repair the rear end. I have no idea what the gear ratio but cruises down the high way nice other than the howling noise. Their is rattle sound coming from one of the doors. This is a 47 year old truck, considering that, this is an amazing condition truck with very minimal rust. To the buyer, either you will use this as a work truck to tow or restore to pristine condition that would be worth it. The NADA value on this truck is:

Values

	Original MSRP	Low Retail	Average Retail	High Retail
Base Price	$2,872	$5,450	$11,900	$22,900
Options: (change)
454 V8 Engine		$125	$200	$275
TOTAL PRICE:	$2,872	$5,575	$12,100	$23,175

I would say this truck is above average. I would like to get above average retail of $12,000 but starting price is $4500 and may the best buyer win this classic beauty. Buyer will need to pick up within 30 days. $500 pay pal payment within the first 48 hours. Remainng payment thru bank to bank only. Can assist with shipping or you can fly to Lewiston, Idaho and drive it home.

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.

Chevy Trax engineer says GMC version possible

Mon, Dec 8 2014

The Buick Encore is doing so well and its platform-mate the Chevrolet Trax has such good reviewer vibes going for it already, that a GMC version hasn't been ruled out. During the recent press launch, Automotive News asked lead engineer Al Manzor if the Trax could wear a GMC-branded suit, to which Manzor replied, "I think that is certainly possible." That's a long way from telling us anything about the probability of a GMC version of the Trax, and a legion of questions would need to be answered before it could happen. How would a GMC version be priced to leave room for the $26,465 GMC Terrain but not eat into sales of the $20,995 Trax or the $24,035 Encore? Or would that matter? Could it primarily be considered to encourage a new faction of The Yukon Set at the compact end, GMC buyers being famously committed to the marque? And of course, would there be a Denali version? It'll probably be a long while before we have any kind of answers, but if you want to see it happen, the door to your campaign of persuasion is at least ajar.
