Classic 1978 Crew Cab Pick-up Truck- Model Tc3 on 2040-cars
Ocala, Florida, United States
Mileage: 172,468
Make: GMC
Model: Sierra 2500
This is a classic GMC truck 1978 owned by my late husband. Its weight is 2700, class is commercial, two axels, and her mileage is 172,468. The vehicle was totally restored in 1983 with a new engine installed in 1984. It has twin diesel tanks one on each side in rear, a locked tool box and a large hitch for towing. It's interior is all customized with blue crushed velour, a sleeping area with pillows and built in reading lights.
All the original equipment is intact including CB. It has a six track player, no gps, no cCD player or any upgrades or additions since the period of the early 80's.
The vehicle was put into storage in 1995 and has never been moved or driven or started since that time. The storage area she is housed in is in an aviation community in Ocala, Florida, a private hangar, museum that is heated and airconditioned, thus she is quite pristine. I believe my late husband may have drained all the fluids for protecting the truck as that was his habit with any vehicles that were in the museum. He may have also replaced those fluids with others used for the purpose of storing, knowing the truck was not going to be run but I am not sure.
It does not have any airconditioning that I know of as my husband was an Air Canada Captain and this vehicle was purchased in Canada. I still have the bill of sale. Sometime in the beginning of 2004, it became part of a corporation, which is now defunct.
I do remember he said "make sure no one starts up the truck until the fluids are in order. I will try to work that out on my end, but I have no experience with trucks or "heavy equipment," like my husband did. This truly is all the information that I know about this vehicle at this time.
I found all of the service records and original bills for the work on the truck after his passing. They amounted to over $31,000.00. HE LIKED PROJECTS.

2015 GMC Sierra Elevation Edition goes dark, looks good
Fri, 19 Sep 2014Forget about the so-called sporty Chevrolet Silverado Rally Edition. If you want a General Motors pickup with some added style, this one looks like a more cohesive, well-done package to our eyes (though it's also not "sporty," despite GM using that term over and over again). It's called the GMC Sierra Elevation Edition, and it hits dealerships later this year.
For its more stylish truck, GMC has fitted the 2015 Sierra Double Cab with a body-colored grille surround, door handles, mirror caps, side moldings and bumpers. The truck also rides on black 20-inch aluminum wheels.
The Elevation Edition, which GMC contends qualifies as a sport truck, comes standard with the Sierra's 285-horsepower, 4.3-liter V6, though buyers can opt for the more powerful 5.3-liter V8 with 355 hp. Other standard goodies include OnStar with 4G LTE connectivity and Bluetooth, all housed in the 4.2-inch Intellilink color display.
GM SUV window switch recall urges owners to park vehicles outside
Thu, 07 Aug 2014It's not unusual for there to be a lag between an automaker announcing a recall and the official documentation showing up on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website. So it's no surprise that a recent GM campaign took about a month to appear in its official capacity. However, there appears to be some big differences between the two reports with potential safety implications.
In late June, GM announced that it needed to recall 181,984 examples of the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Buick Rainier, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7x from the 2005-2007 model years, plus the 2006 Chevy Trailblazer EXT and 2006 GMC Envoy XL. The new documents paint a slightly different picture with 184,611 needing repaired and different model years listed.
The reason for the fix is still the same, though. It's possible for fluid to contact the master power window switch module in the driver's door, which can corrode the part. Eventually this could cause a short circuit, leaving the buttons inoperable and potentially leading to a fire. But the new NHTSA documents add an important note: "A fire could occur even while the vehicle is not in use. As a precaution, owners are advised to park outside until the remedy has been made."
