1991 Chevrolet K1500 4x4 Standard Cab, Short box Silverado Pickup.  116,036 miles.  A/C blows cold, Heat works very well.  All the dash controls and radio works well.  Engine, I think, was rebuilt and carburetor and aluminum intake installed.  MSD Distributor and coil.  Truck starts right up, runs very good.  I have put about 2-thousand miles on it, and it has not burned any oil.  Starts very well, runs good, no smoking. 

I have installed a new battery, a new alternator, new front brakes (pads, calipers and rubber lines) and new ABS controls and modules.  Everything works as it should.  When I bought the truck, the dealer had replaced the rear end with a unit from a Tahoe, with bigger rear brakes.  The rear brakes worked TOO well, so I installed an adjustable proportioning valve and cut the pressure to the rear brakes.  They now work as they should, the truck stops really well.  Once in a while, when you start the truck, the ABS light comes on, but turns off within a minute.  Must be re-booting itself?

Newer tires with lots of tread left.  I have had those Road Force balanced, at 70-mph the truck drives down the road very smooth.  Wheels some discoloration, need to be polished.

Interior shows some wear on the driver’s seat.  Carpet is good; I put new rubber mats in it.  The left hinge is broken on the glove box door, needs to re-glued.  Everything works inside, all the lights, radio, wipers, etc.  Everything on the truck works as it should.  Everything.

Body shows no rust or bubbles, but I think it was re-painted a while ago.  Paint is very nice.  Headlights and tail-lights need to be polished and brought back to clear.  Frame is starting to show surface rust.  Under the bed, the cross braces have some rust thru.  Dual exhaust is good, but not stock.

I bought this truck Early July to use as a second truck, a backup.  I sold the Dodge Dually and bought a newer Chevrolet, so I am going to sell this truck.  I needed another truck for when the Dodge was constantly in the shop! 

I have tinkered with this truck since I bought it, fixing all the little things.  It runs and drives very nice.  Everything works, even the windshield washers.  I would not be afraid to drive this truck anyplace.

NHTSA approves hybrid rearview mirror display in Cadillac CT6, Bolt EV

Tue, Feb 23 2016

The Chevy Bolt EV prototype doesn't just have a fancy new all-electric powertrain. Just outside the driver's line of sight is a newfangled rearview mirror, one that can turn into a screen that shows a moving image from the rear-facing camera. Speaking to NPR's Robert Siegel yesterday, Department of Transportation secretary Anthony Foxx said that NHTSA has now approved this type of mirror/screen for use in vehicles. According to a letter from NHTSA to General Motors, GM will likely use this Full Display Mirror first in the 2016 Cadillac CT6 before coming to the Bolt. In its letter to GM, NHTSA said that the Full Display Mirror will only qualify as a standard rearview mirror as long as there are normal side mirrors in place. In other words, don't expect to see cameras and screens replacing all the mirrors in a motor vehicle just yet. @AutoblogGreen @NPR - #NHTSA has OK'd GM rear-view system that can switch between mirror & camera views. pic.twitter.com/6CBeIit10v — Anthony Foxx (@SecretaryFoxx) February 22, 2016 The Full Display Mirror was developed by Gentex, which has long worked with GM. The FDM debuted in 2014 and some people hoped it would also make its way into the Tesla Model X. Gentex, which also makes auto-dimming mirrors, says that it has "set out to develop the technologies and core competencies necessary to manage this evolution of the rearview mirror." The Chevy Bolt EV will start at $37,500, before incentives. The 200-mile EV will go into production late this year for likely sale in early 2017. Related Video:

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out

Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.

Chevy Gives World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner A Recalled Truck

Thu, Oct 30 2014

Last night must have seemed like a dream come true for San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner. He helped his team win its third World Series Championship in four years, earned MVP status and was given a brand new 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. Bumgarner might want to hold off on taking a victory lap in his new truck however. The Colorado is currently under recall. General Motors issued a stop-delivery order earlier this month to fix the truck's air bag connectors, which were wired improperly during the manufacturing process. The faulty wiring can cause the system to deploy incorrectly. Only 138 customers have received their Chevrolet trucks, the rest were caught and repaired either in the plant or on their way to dealerships and show rooms. Recalls Chevrolet world series
