All are in good condition, off of other 1998-2000 Summit White trucks, so no painting is needed. Truck also comes with a new Flowmaster Force II 3" cat-back exhaust system. Truck also comes with a new drivers side interior door handle assembly, 2 new power mirrors and a new power mirror switch assembly. Needs: Once warmed-up, truck is blowing white smoke out of the exhaust and misfiring, and the computer is throwing a misfire code and check engine light for it. Smells like anti-freeze. I suspect a cracked intake manifold, head or block? There appears to be no excessive exhaust gas pressure or oil in the coolant, and no coolant in the oil. The top end of the motor had just been redone, including all new gaskets, but coolant is still leaking into the exhaust somewhere. Passenger side doors are dented (wife backed into it, in the driveway!) (replacement doors included.) The A/C system needs evacuated and recharged, now that the leaking lines and accumulator have been replaced. Front windshield has a crack on the passenger side, by the A-pillar. The door locks are frozen if you try to use the key, but they lock and unlock fine, from the power buttons inside or with the keyfob remote. The drivers side interior door handle broke (common issue with these 95-00 trucks) (new door handle included.) The power mirrors do not work (new mirrors and switch assembly included). The exhaust system over-axle pipes, near the muffler exit, are rusting through (new cat-back exhaust system included.) Some body rust and paint peeling. It could use a good cleaning, inside and out. Please see all pics. I have way too many projects to work on than time allows, and I'm downsizing my vehicle fleet. Private seller. Clear Ohio title in-hand, no liens... ready to transfer to the next prospective owner. Comes with a thick folder full of receipts and documentation. Thanks. |

LG Chem's troubled Chevy Volt battery plant hiring once again
Thu, Sep 25 2014The Michigan battery plant known for paying its workers to do nothing has turned things around and is now hiring more workers, specifically to do something. South Korea-based LG Chem, which runs the factory to supply the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle with its lithium-ion batteries, held a job fair recently to bring on 40 new employees in order to meet higher battery demand, according to WZZM, the ABC affiliate for Grand Rapids, MI. The LG Chem factory is in Holland, MI, about 30 miles west of Grand Rapids, and it made its first batteries last year. Prior to that, though, the factory gained notoriety after a US Department of Energy (DOE) probe found that workers there were getting paid to do, well, nothing. That's because demand for the battery packs was so low that it cost less for the plant to sit idle. The DOE was conducting the probe because of its financial grant to LG Chem. But that was then and today is today. LG Chem is looking to ramp up production in advance of the second-generation Volt. That 2016 model-year version is said to have a longer all-electric range and better performance and will ride on a new chassis, but few official details have surfaced. We will know more when we get our first look at the car at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
Opel CEO talks new EV, will likely be fresh face for Chevy, too
Wed, Jul 23 2014The rumored demise of the Opel Ampera has been confirmed, but there's good news, too. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann has been busy Tweeting information about the brand's next plug-in vehicle, admitting that the Ampera is on the way out but that plug-in vehicles are here to stay. His Tweets, in full, read: After the eventual run-out of the current generation Ampera, we'll introduce a successor product in the electric vehicle segment. Our next electric vehicle will be part of our massive product offensive – with 27 new vehicles in the 2014-2018 time frame. We see eMobility as important part of the mobility of tomorrow and we will continue to drive down costs & deliver affordability. As we learned earlier this week, the Ampera will not be refreshed when the current Chevy Volt is updated, most likely because of slow sales. Opel sold just 332 Amperas in the first five months of 2014. For now, General Motors is still building Amperas in Michigan for export to Europe. So, what might this new EV mean for the General Motors plug-in fleet? Official spokespeople are being quiet, but we think it's safe to say the new EV Neumann is talking about is not simply a rebadged Chevy Spark EV. This is the first official word about an entirely new EV, and we expect it will come to both the Chevrolet and Opel brands.
GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident
Fri, Dec 5 2014Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.
