This 1983 GMC Sierra Classic (K5 body style, same as Jimmy, Blazer) has a strong 350 with a Comp Cams roller rocker setup (1.52 ratio) as well as headers. I removed a valve cover to check, see pictures. I believe there's some money in the motor, judging from the lope and pep the engine has. The truck starts right up and runs very well. The radiator looks like it has been replaced very recently, and it looks like it has a new transmission cooler as well. I have a 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass with a very fresh, slightly built up 350, and I considered doing a swap, if that tells you how nicely the motor runs. I locked in the four wheel drive and everything seems to be in good working order. I mostly used this vehicle between home and work, and to pick up aquariums for my business. The interior has seen better days, as you can see in the picture, but it is still very serviceable for back country adventuring. The body is very straight with only a couple minor dents (one on the passenger door, and the other on the passenger rear corner). The underside is very clean -- this truck would make an excellent candidate for restoration. These trucks commonly rust along the back end where the rear door hinges, but this is one is clean as a whistle. As you can see, the cab mounts are all in great shape, as well. At some point, someone installed a hefty guard on the front differential. This truck came with some nice options, including electric windows (which still work, including the back) and air conditioning (it was removed from the engine compartment at some point). 

As I said, the truck starts up immediately and goes down the road smoothly. I hate to see this one go, as it's very solid structurally and it looks like someone has already invested some money in the drivetrain. I've just got too many projects to take on another!


I tried to select pictures that are representative of the truck's condition, but due to limits on the number of pictures I could only put 24. If you would like any additional pictures, message me with your email and what you're curious about and I'll take care of it.

Please give me a call if you're interested in bidding, I'd be happy to answer any of your questions or even set up a time to come see it in person. Call Brad at 812-243-4408.

Thanks for looking!

GM recalls 51k Enclave, Traverse, Acadia crossovers over fuel gauge inaccuracy

Mon, 05 May 2014

With all eyes fixed on General Motors in the wake of the ignition recall debacle, the auto giant has been carefully calling in a wide array of vehicles to fix anything and everything that could prove problematic. Just the other day it issued two separate recalls - one concerning the Cadillac SRX and another its heavy-duty pickups - and now it is issuing another.
This time the vehicles in question are the Buick Enclave, Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia, three fullsize crossovers based on GM's Lambda platform. In an estimated 51,640 units manufactured between March 26 and August 15, 2013, the engine control module has been found to incorrectly display the level of fuel in the tank.
As a result, owners are being notified to bring their vehicles in to their local dealers to have the ECU reflashed to fix the problem. View the full details in the announcement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Chevy Colorado, GMC Canyon midsize pickup trucks to get diesel engines

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

The market for midsize pickup trucks has all but been abandoned in the US, but General Motors is about to shake the market up with the all-new (to the US) Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon. Launching next year, GM already told us that its new trucks would be a "fuel-efficient alternative" to fullsize trucks, and aside from the smaller size, Automotive News says that these trucks will accomplish this with a diesel engine.
According to the AN report, the next-gen Colorado and Canyon will offer a small, four-cylinder Duramax turbo diesel with a displacement of either 2.5 or 2.8 liters - both engines are currently used in this truck for other markets. This would allow GM to join the Cummins-powered Nissan Titan and Ram 1500 EcoDiesel as the only non-HD trucks in the US to offer diesel. The article goes on to say that the diesel versions of the Colorado and Canyon would launch about a year after the trucks go into production in fall of 2014.

2018 Ford Expedition vs other big SUVs: How it compares on paper

Fri, Nov 10 2017

With our Alex Kierstein rightly impressed in his first-drive review of the new 2018 Ford Expedition, we decided to dig a little deeper into the numbers, and we came up with the spreadsheet below to highlight how the new 2018 Expedition compares on paper to its main full-size SUV competitors: the 2018 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban (and therefore the 2018 GMC Yukon), 2018 Toyota Sequoia and 2018 Nissan Armada. We also threw in the new, even bigger 2018 Chevrolet Traverse since, as you'll see, its massive dimensions should put it on the radar for anyone who needs loads of passenger and cargo space but doesn't care as much about towing. A few notes about the chart above. First, the 6.2-liter V8 that's included with the new-for-2018 Tahoe RST trim level is the standard engine on the GMC Yukon Denali. You can apply most of the Tahoe's numbers to the entire Yukon and Yukon XL lineup. Second, though we highlighted categories where the Traverse led, we also highlighted the runner-up full-size SUV, since this was ultimately about that segment. Traverse numbers are broadly applicable to the new Buick Enclave.
