Cool old 1965 GMC Suburban Custom 10 (half-ton) Carryall that has spent 31 of the last 33 years sitting in a field in the little farm town of Delta, Utah. It's all original, stock and complete other than the gas tank and radiator fan. The previous owner had it running (he drove it around the neighborhood) from a small fuel tank tucked in the engine compartment. The engine still turns over freely but I haven't tried to get it running.
The VIN is 1001PF10391A. I went online and found a link to a website that decoded it for me. Among other things, the link showed it's a light-duty (6000 pound GVW), short wheelbase (115") version with ambulance doors which is the most desirable body style. The body is really pretty good. It has typical (but easily fixable) rust in some of the lower portions (see pics). All 4 steel inner fenderwells remain very solid. Marine-grade plywood was used by the factory as flooring in the rear and it's still in great condition. Passenger area floorboards have some small holes but nothing bad. Glass is good other than a two cracks in the windshield and one flat passenger side slider in the rear. Inner latch is broken on right rear door. Red and white paint is original. All hard-to-find trim is still there. Please ask for all my pics; they show everything including the undercarriage. The running gear is all stock and original. That means a big 305cid GMC V6 running through a four speed manual transmission (GM-420?) to the Dana 60 rear differential (3 lug studs broken on right rear axle). Points, plugs, plug wires and distributor cap are new. Clutch works and transmission shifts easily. Brakes and steering are manual. Brakes don't work but wheel cylinders and master cylinder do not leak. A vintage trailer brake mechanism is visible under the dash and big booster rear leaf springs are visible underneath. It also has a beefy trailer hitch. I think this would be an awesome tow vehicle for a vintage trailer or hot rod. A small-block Chevy engine would be a bolt-in swap if you're so inclined. The interior is in great, original condition. Dash is excellent with no cutting or butchery of any kind. All buttons, knobs, and switches are still there other than the ignition switch and 3 plastic HVAC lever caps. Even the original AM radio is still there (and it came with a vintage below-dash 8 track deck and speakers that I'll throw in). Headliner is in excellent condition. Windows roll up and down properly. Doors open and close properly as well. Original upholstery is rough in the front but can be used as a pattern. And again, floorboards remain in very decent shape (see pics). This is such an awesome rig. It's all there and is wonderfully original. I hope she finds a home with someone who will treat her like the rare beast she is and perhaps bring her back to her former glory. Just my two cents. My name is Chris and I am happy to answer your questions. Please call me at 435-669-1470. I also have tons of pictures that show every nook and cranny in great detail. Send me your email address and I'll get them to you. This sweet, rare, vintage, half-ton Suburban is located in the dry, desert community of Hurricane, Utah (a little over 100 miles north of Las Vegas). Thank you very much for your interest. |

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773
Fri, Mar 24 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna. Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

GM thinks Colorado and Canyon midsize trucks will lure crossover buyers
Tue, 29 Jul 2014The invitation to come out and sample product at the General Motors Proving Grounds in Milford, MI is rarely dull, and after spending this morning driving preproduction versions of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon all we can say is... under strict embargo. Sorry, America, we were as excited as many of you are to learn more about GM's new midsize truck range and take note of how they go down the road, but it's going to be September before we're allowed to share that with all of you. Here's to sweet suspense.
While we might not be able to talk about refinement or handling yet, we did find some of the product positioning and marketing statements from GMC and Chevy officials on hand at the program to be pretty interesting.
Of course, we all know that the literal competitive set for Canyon and Colorado is comprised of two comparatively ancient Japanese midsize trucks: the Toyota Tacoma (which currently owns this segment) and the Nissan Frontier. The Frontier's bones are as old as the 2005 model year, with 2009 marking the last time the truck was updated. The Taco was also launched in 2005, though it did see a freshening for 2012. The point remains that, in every facet from powertrain to dash plastics, the GM midsize truck twins are going to look positively space age by comparison when they hit the market for MY 2015.
NHTSA upgrades probe into 1.7 million GM vehicles over wiper failures
Tue, Dec 17 2019WASHINGTON — The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said Tuesday it is upgrading an investigation into 1.7 million General Motors vehicles for windshield wiper failures. The auto safety agency opened the probe in November 2018 to see if GM needed to expand a 2016 recall of 2013 model year Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain SUVs to cover additional vehicles. The engineering analysis probe covers 2010-2012 and 2014-2016 Equinox and Terrain vehicles. NHTSA could demand a recall after it completes the probe. NHTSA said it has reviewed 1,900 complaints and reports related to the issue in the 1.7 million vehicles. NHTSA said it has seen elevated failure rates in the 1.7 million vehicles, even though GM said the recalled vehicles have "double the warranty rate and five times the complaint rate." GM said it will "fully cooperate to support their investigation. We do not believe these windshield washer systems are defective." The wiper failures that prompted the 2016 recall were attributed to water and debris intrusion into the windshield wiper assembly ball joints, leading to excessive wear and eventual detachment of the ball joint. GM said it was installing an improved windshield wiper motor and transmission assembly and relocating a drain hole at the base of the windshield. Related Video:
