I am having to sell this 1983 Chevrolet K10 Scottsdale 4x4 pickup. Aside from minor cosmetic rust, this pickup truck is an outstanding running example of a 30 year old classic. It has only had two owners and it has plenty of extras! I personally don't know the exact mileage on the 350 chevrolet engine, expect that is is bored .030 over and has good compression and doesn't need any work done to it, I do have a build sheet available for when the engine was built though. (cam specs are a 210 duration at .050 lift, total lift is .440 intake and exhaust. It comes equipped with a 600 CFM Holley 4160 Electric Choke Carburetor matted to a Edelbrock Performer intake. The ignition components include a Accel distributor, plugs, and wires. Exhaust gases exit through long tube headers and true dual exhaust system through flowmaster 40 series mufflers. The result is that this truck actually does not sound like ass! The running gear is in equally good shape and is equipped with the factory A833 4-speed manual overdrive transmission, quite a rare option in these trucks and they definitely improve overall fuel economy. The transfer case is the factory NP208 transfer case. Front and rear axles are GM corporate 10 bolts, regeared 3.73. New front axle steering damper. Lastly, the front axle is equipped with automatic locking hubs. 

Recent maintanence performed last winter includes a new oem-style radiator, new harmonic balancer and front crank seal, all new coolant hoses and heater core, thermostat, alternator and drive belt. Lastly, it has four new headlights and wipers. 

Lastly, it has new tires that literally have less than a thousand miles of wear, they are Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ 33x12.50x15 installed on American Racing Outlaw 1 15x10 aluminum alloys. 

Other than the superficial rust on parts of the cab and quarter-fenders, this truck is in remarkable shape giving its age. It isn't a show-truck, but a clean example of an adult owned K10 with lots of life left in it. I have invested over 2,000 dollars in tires and maintanence just last winter and I am selling because I am about to be a dad (insulting offers will be declined) and persuing other matters at the moment. Clean and clear title, you won't be disappointed. Asking 5,000. Respectful offers will be considered, insulting offers will be declined.

GM finds steering flaw, decides it doesn't warrant a recall

Tue, Apr 14 2015

Guess what? General Motors is back in the spotlight for not recalling something. This time, though, not only does the company have an argument against a recall campaign, but its position is supported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. According to The New York Times, over 50 owners of GM vehicles have reported instances of stuck or seized steering after driving long distances without moving the wheel. One owner complained to NHTSA that the "locked" steering of their 2013 Buick Verano caused a collision with a concrete barrier in a construction zone. Along with the 2013 to 2014 model year Verano sedans, Chevrolet Cruze and Malibu sedans are also affected. Considering the popularity of those models, GM needs to have a reason for not issuing a recall, right? "Based on a very low rate of occurrence – ranging from less than one half to less than two incidents per thousand vehicles – and the fact that the condition is remedied when the wheel is turned, GM determined this was not a safety issue," spokesman Alan Adler told The Times. The company has, however, issued a technical service bulletin for owners that complain of the problem. The fix is nothing more than a software update that is covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles from new. NHTSA cited GM's actions, along with descriptions of the problems from customers, in its decision not to issue a recall, with spokeswoman Catherine Howden saying, "the symptoms described would be a brief, perceptible change in steering feel that has little to no effect on the driver's ability to safely steer the vehicle." "When terms like 'notchy,' 'stick,' 'slip' or 'feel' are used, it does not indicate a meaningful increase in steering effort," Howden told The Times via email. What do you think? Is GM in the wrong here? Should there be a recall, or is the issue so limited as to not warrant one? Have your say in Comments.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.

Suzuki recalls 2 million cars globally

Wed, Apr 22 2015

Suzuki is recalling two million vehicles across the globe, including a number of Chevrolet Cruze sedans that it builds for General Motors, because the ignition switches may begin to smoke. None of the Cruzes being recalled were sold in the US, though. This recall is limited to the Japanese, European and Australian markets. In Suzuki's home market, 1,873,000 vehicles are being recalled, including the Cruze and a number kei cars built for Mazda (the Carol and AZ-Wagon), as well as the automaker's own Alto, Wagon R and Swift. Affected vehicles were built between 1998 and 2009. The remaining 133,000 vehicles include Cruzes and other Suzuki products sold in Europe and Australia. There have been no reports of injuries or accidents due to the 67 reported incidents, all of which come from the Japanese market, a Suzuki spokesperson told Automotive News. Related Video:
