Here is a rare truck - (as in 1 of 1) with a Crate Chevy 350 and an Automatic Trans - Drive train is just a few years old and with very low miles (estimating less than 5500) - engine runs/drives GREAT! Starts immediately.   

Currently running on the 'Street-legal' Firestone stock-look tires with 16" 8-lug Wheels and Stainless Rings.  Also, this truck INCLUDES a complete set 49"  IROK's Tires in Chrome rims (seen in some of the pics).    It has a nice stereo, and very nice interior overall including custom CHROME door panels, ashtray, and glove box. Solid truck overall and runs very well. I just completed having the front drive shaft installed and the sterring adjust to be more uniform. 

Technically, very large tires generally makes any truck frame too 'high' to be officially 'street legal' and CHP approved.  When I bought the truck some years ago, CHP inspected it and approved it (with the smaller tires), then also applied a copy of the frame VIN onto what is called a 'blue tag' installed within the door jam.  The Truck is being sold 'as-is' and without any warranty nor guarantee whasoever.

HERE IS WHAT IT NEEDS:

1. It's not really critical or even visible, but it needs a "bed floor" - much of the old one is removed already.  Maybe something more innovative than wood? (see pics)

2. The passenger side of the windshied has a few "wiper-marks".  I have a complete set of windshield 'stainless' trim to apply upon a future windshield replacement - no rush.

3. It could certainly use a fresh "paint-job" to become the ultimate 'TRUCK'.  There are some minor areas of corrosion to address also - but not that un-typical for it's year and age (see images).

4. It has mostly original guages and interior controls (ie: gas guage, odomoter, speed, heater, etc.) -  which could stand to be updated or improved.  It does have new temp and volts guages.

REASON FOR SELLING:

I am mainly selling (or trading) it in order to get a stock-like Jeep Wrangler for my wife, or please let me know if you have a trade offer.

Please contact me if you want to come see it in person near Santa Paula, CA - Thanks, James 805-479-5000.

Audi S4 drivers are the most accident-prone, insurance report says

Sun, Jun 25 2023

Culling data from more than 4.6 million automobile insurance applications, researchers at the Insurify insurance comparison marketplace picked a winner — or more to the point, a loser — in its determination of the car model with the most accidents so far in 2023: the Audi S4. Why does the sporty, luxury-class German sedan rank so high (or so low)? The organization found that S4 drivers, piloting a car with almost 350 horsepower, are among those who collect the most speeding tickets, and that they get into accidents at a rate 54 percent higher than the national average. If the S4 isnÂ’t a surprise with an at-fault accident rate of 11.7 percent, consider the “family friendly” brand that appears three times on the Insurity list: Subaru. It is represented by three models, including the turbocharged WRX and XV Crosstrek, and at the better-performing bottom of the list, the Subaru Impreza, with an accident rate of 10.3 percent.  In 2023, 7.6 percent of U.S. drivers were involved in at least one at-fault accident in the prior seven years. For drivers of cars on this list, the average at-fault accident rate was 10.5 percent, meaning these drivers are 1.4 times as likely to have an at-fault accident on record. According to its statement, the Insurity data science team explored key safety features, driver behavior, and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) evaluations to pinpoint possible reasons behind these carsÂ’ high accident rates. Following is the list, counting down to the models with most reported accidents: 10. Subaru Impreza (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.3 percent; MSRP base model): $19,795) 9. Kia Niro (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4 percent; MSRP base model): $26,590) 8. Chevrolet Silverado LD (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.4%, MSRP base model): $34,500) 7. Subaru XV Crosstrek (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.5 percent, MSRP 6. Subaru WRX.(percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.7% MSRP base model): $29,605) 5. Toyota GR86 (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.8 percent MSRP base model): $29,900) 4. Hyundai Veloster N (percentage of drivers with a prior at-fault accident on record: 10.9 percent; MSRP base model): $32,500) 3.

GM recalls select Tahoes, Yukons, Escalades for rear driveshaft issue

Mon, Feb 7 2022

GM is recalling a number of its full-size SUVs due to an issue with the rear driveshaft assembly that could ultimately result in driveshaft failure. The actual number of total vehicles involved in the recall is small at just 1,789, but it’s spread out across the entire 2021 model year full-size GM vehicle lineup. That means a small number of every model is being recalled, including the Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon, Yukon XL and the Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV. GM traced the issue back to certain driveshaft assemblies with ball bearings that were not properly heat treated. If theyÂ’re not properly heat treated, GM says that the balls may deform over time, causing noise and vibration. Continue to drive in this condition, and GM says the affected joint in the driveshaft assembly could seize, causing loss of drive power. However, the problem wonÂ’t present itself all at once, as GM says there will be a gradual increase of noises and vibrations before total failure. For those few owners with affected vehicles, GM says that it will replace the left and right rear driveshaft assemblies with properly-built units. Per usual with recalls, this will be done at your local dealership at no cost to the owner. If you have one of the recalled SUVs, expect to be notified mid-March. Related video:

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
