Hello everyone you are looking at a very hard to find original truck, this truck has been well kept and has original paperwork along with maintenance records.The history of this truck goes as follows. The original owner was a Sammy Gholson who lived in Tucumcari New Mexico. He mainly used the truck for recreational purposes, the truck had a tow bar in front when I purchased it .he would haul the truck up to the mountains for hunting. The truck has the oldschool paper records that were kept in a small plastic slot the most milage recorded on those is 9,000. The truck also has an old Goodwrench dealer sticker on the inside of windshield when I purchased the truck it had 43,000 original miles on it, the service sticker was due at 44,000. Some of the original paper work includes a registration from 1977, Fuel economy booklet ,owners manual ,service parts identification sticker, and a installation manual for the Edelbrock intake that was added in the 80s. This truck was originally a 2 barrel carb setup which was upgraded with a quadjet. Sticker on the radiator support calls for a 2 barrel carb. if you look closely at the engine compartment you will see the fire wall still has its original factory chalk marks. So with all that said Don't miss out on the chance of owning a good restoreable original convertible classic.

Engine
This engine has the matching serial number to vin has all original parts except for the intake, and carb. I have used the truck regularly and have maintained the oil and installed new intake gaskets, valve cover gaskets, and thermostat.

Transmission 
Serial numbers also match the vin automatic transmission turbo 350 full time four wheel drive.Transmission shifts smooth

Electrical Components
All Lighting is fully functional brakes,turn signals running lights high/low beams and cluster lighting. radio not working I've never really bothered with it. cig lighter is good. Air Conditioning fully functional, heater works. ALL gauges are also working and marking as they should.

Rust/Body
Yes like most all these old trucks it has rust, The rear lower corner behind wheel has rust,front passenger fender has rust, and tail gate has some rust behind the lower trim. Beyond that the floors are solid and wont be a hard restoration if thats what you plan on doing. The body of the truck is not perfect and has been painted once before and will need body work has very small dents and scratches paint is faded and peeling. As far as I can see this truck has never been in any major wreck the frame also has the matching vin number stamped on top rail on driver side engine compartment.

Interior
The truck has the original front seats the driver was badly worn and the passenger was also a bit worn. Rear seat was missing and I was lucky enough to find one at a local junkyard. I wrapped the seats with Mexican blankets because the vinyl would get too hot in the summer to sit on. Front seat portion of the truck has original rubber mat the rear was recently installed.

Suspension/wheels
The Jimmy rides on a factory setup and has not to my knowledge been altered in any way, rides and drives real smooth on the freeway. The power steering works excellent, brakes working properly. The truck sits on a set of wild country tires original 16 inch 6 lug steel wheels I also have the spare with an original tire

2015 Sierra All Terrain HD looks ready to hit heavy-duty trails

Thu, 22 May 2014

GMC is getting its heavy-duty trucks ready for the mud this summer with its All Terrain package for the Sierra 2500HD and 3500HD. Meant to blend style, tech and ruggedness, the pack includes a lot of extra chrome outside and an off-road package underneath.
The 2015 Sierra All Terrain HD trucks naturally come standard with four-wheel drive with an electronically controlled transfer case to handle things in the dirt. The Z71 off-road package is also standard, which includes Rancho twin-tube shocks, hill descent control and a skid plate. To add some style when off the beaten path, the pack includes chrome trim on the mirror caps, lower bumper and grille surround, plus LEDs around the headlights and 18-inch wheels (20-inchers are optional on the 2500HD). The 3500HD also gets chrome, adjustable outside camper mirrors. The interior receives a technology upgrade thanks to the standard rearview camera and IntelliLink infotainment that can act as a Wi-Fi hotspot through OnStar 4G LTE, read text messages and includes Siri Eyes Free for iPhone users.
The All Terrain package goes on sale on both trucks this summer and is offered on either the SLE or SLT trim levels in double cab and crew cab models. The standard engine is the 6.0-liter V8 with 360 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque, but the Duramax 6.6-liter, diesel V8 with 397 hp and 765 lb-ft is also available. The gas engine is mated to a Hydra-matic six-speed automatic, and the diesel uses an Allison six-speed automatic. Scroll down to read the full announcement about these heavy-duty off-roaders.

GMC teases Hummer EV's removable roof panels

Wed, May 20 2020

Today was supposed to be the day that GM took the wraps off its GMC Hummer EV. We were told as much during the Super Bowl commercial, but GM revised it to an undecided future date, citing the coronavirus as the reason. Instead of the big reveal, we have a teaser.  The Hummer EV is going to feature removable roof panels, and now we get a better look at them. There are four roof panels and a front T-bar that come out of the truck. You can see what that looks like in the video at the top of this post. Comparisons to Jeep are obvious as the open-air experience is likely similar to the Gladiator and Wrangler with their hardtop roof panels removed. That zero-limits slogan makes a bit of sense from this respect. With the sheer number of roof panels, we suspect a single person will be able to remove them alone. In addition to the video of the roof, we get a small peek at the massive digital screens the Hummer will be sporting. Check them out at the bottom of the photo below. They appear to be two large slabs, separate from each other. Other details are scarce on the ground. We’re not sure when the Hummer will make its grand entrance at this point, but are still excited to see the 1,000-horsepower truck hit the road. GMC is still advertising the 0-60 mph time of just 3 seconds, too. The latest tidbit of news suggests that further teasers might be coming, so we could be in for a rather drawn out reveal process. Our senior green editor John Snyder got to see the GMC Hummer in person earlier this year at GMÂ’s EV Day and described it like this: “ItÂ’s a big, off-road-ready pickup complete with giant all-terrain rubber and tow hooks. It features removable roof panels for access to the open sky, which appears to be depicted in the teaser above. It features sail panels behind the C-pillars, similar to those on the Chevy Avalanche and Honda Ridgeline. Its bed was concealed with a tonneau cover, but it sported GMCÂ’s MultiPro tailgate that we first saw on the Sierra Denali. Interior photos showed a spacious interior with blocky shapes, squared hourglass vents that mirror the look of the taillights and a lunar theme that incorporates the topography of the Sea of Tranquility into things like the floor mats and speaker covers. It also has a large infotainment screen as well as a digital instrument panel.” Related video:

2014 Chevy Silverado details continue to dribble out

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gotten its hands on a few more details concerning the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and the 2014 GMC Sierra. General Motors held a conference call on the two trucks, allowing Jeff Luke, executive chief engineer for both, to answer a few questions. Luke said truck buyers are largely concerned with power and fuel economy, and as such, GM will continue to explore new methods of providing both. That may translate into any number of drivetrain permutations, including light-duty diesel engines, eight-speed transmissions or even a twin-turbocharged V6.
What's more, both the 2014 Silverado and its GMC twin will boast a tow rating of 11,500 pounds, but only when equipped with a max-trailering package. Without that special package, the rating drops to 10,200 lbs for regular cabs and 9,700 lbs for crew cabs. Buyers will no longer be able to opt for a 4.10 gear ratio.
We're also excited to hear that GM plans on making the Z71 package into something more than just a few a stickers. While Luke didn't go into details, PickupTrucks.com says "it will get significant improvements in the future." Head over to the site for a quick rundown of the call's highlights.
