You are looking at 1987 chevy r30 one tone crew cab long box dually. This truck is in exceptional shape for the year. The truck is equiped with the tbi 454, and a turbo 400 transmission. It is a two wheel drive. This thing will tow anything. has tons of power.
  The motor and trans in the truck has around 50,000 miles on it. The truck itself has probably around 130,000. Motor has newer plugs and wires, done last year. The motor and trans was rebuilt before i bought the truck. It has a larger cam in it. Otherwise was a stock rebuild. Has newer summit racing headers. The truck is equiped with all the heavy duty towing features, trans cooler, external oil cooler. There is also a dual battery setup in the truck. The headers are running to a 3 inch dual exhaust that runs all the way to the back, with 2 glass pack mufflers. The truck is loud. Sounds great. At idle it is quiet. Some of the parts i replaced are, it has new brake pads all the way around, replaced the center carrier bearing for the driveshaft, also the universals. The truck does have air in it, but some of the parts are missing, so it does not work. The hoses are missing. Also has cruise, but i do not know if it works or not, have never tried it. I only used it for pulling and i dont use cruise when i pull a trailer. The only problem that comes up is that the check engine light comes on after you are on the highway for awhile. I talked with my mechanic and it is only due to the fact that there is some emission things missing and not hooked up, so it turns the light on. After you stop and park the truck, the light goes out. It has done this since i have owned it, and has never been an issue, so i never worried about it. Other than that its a nice truck. Runs at perfect temp, has great oil pressure. Also has almost new tires on rear, they have a very aggressive tread. I put these on due to it being 2 wheel drive. front tires are good, probably about half or a bit over tread. It is equiped with a brake controller, and all functioning trailer wiring. Has aftermarket tail lights, brush guard with driving lights. There is also a custom built headache rack on the back with an extra set of lights which are perfect for backing in the dark. The truck does not have a tailgate, it didnt have one when i bought it, and just never got one. the net on the back works great. They are easy to find though. The body on the truck is very nice. It is flat black primer. I never decided to paint it. I think it looks good flat black, and makes it look mean. There is pretty much no rust on the body. rockers have been replaced, and the rest of the body is good. very solid truck. Floors are real good to.  There is a gas door missing on the passenger side. The truck has dual 20 gallon tanks, and the split-er works great.  I have replaced the passenger side gas tank and sending unit. Both tanks work good, but the drivers side has a leak somewhere, so i never use it. I was going to replace that tank as well, but never got around to it. It does work though. The heat works very well in the truck. For the interior, this was a conversion truck when it was originally new. It has the big plushy front buckets, and the added wood grain trim etc. The interior is a fair shape for the age of the truck. it is dirty in places. There is a after market cd player with after market speakers in the truck, it powers up, but does not play anything. I have never looked at it to see why. I never really cared. It is probably an easy fix. there is a sunpro tack in the truck, which works great. It has power windows, and power locks. They both work good. has delay wipers as well which work great. I ALSO REPLACED ALL THE DOOR SEALS. The vent windows are not operational, but do not leak. the horn on the steering wheel does not work. I put a air horn in the truck, with a seperate momentary push button. All the lights work great. The th-400 trans works great, has a shift kit it. There is also a lot of add ons on the exterior of the truck, as can be seen from the pics. Over all the truck is in very nice shape. has always pulled whatever i wanted it to. It also has the large dana rear axle, but i cant remember what axle. Not sure on the gear size. About 70-75 on the highway is good. runs around 3500 rpm at that speed. I never pushed it, just because its a big truck, and they really aren't meat to go that fast. I am only selling the truck, because i really dont need it anymore.  I am sure there are things that i am forgetting, but please email me with any questions and i will answer them the best i can. I think the price i am looking to get for the truck is fair. Just the motor and trans alone i know i could sell for more than half of what i want for the whole truck. THANKS FOR LOOKING. TRUCK IS SOLD AS IS WITH NO WARRANTY AND NO REFUNDS. THE DEPOSIT IS ALSO A NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT.  IF YOU WISH TO KNOW WHAT THE RESERVE IS SET AT, EMAIL ME AND I CAN LET YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS.

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Volt class action suit proposed, Tesla stock could outperform in 2015

Sat, Dec 27 2014

A class action suit has been proposed against General Motors for a steering problem in the Chevrolet Volt. The plaintiffs claim that a defect can cause the steering to freeze intermittently, and that General Motors either knows or should have known about the problem. The case, filed in New Jersey, also claims that defective parts are replaced with the same or similar parts, which are also defective. The plaintiffs say that claims for the 100-plus-member class exceed $5 million. Read more at Law360 or at BigClassAction. Tesla Motors stock (TSLA) has risen after weeks of losses. It gained 5.4 percent during the week ending December 19, when it closed at $219.29 per share. Since then, it rose slightly more, closing at $222.26 on December 24. Morgan Stanley lowered its target price on Tesla stock from $320 to $290, predicting lower sales on the upcoming Model III than expected before, but still called Tesla a good long-term investment. Analysts at CNBC predicted Tesla to be the best performing stock of 2015. Read more at ETF Daily News. Oslo- and New York-based architecture firm Snohetta has designed a zero-emissions house that also charges an electric car. The ZEB Pilot House, built in Larvik, Norway, uses a solar panel on the roof to power the house, which also provides enough excess energy to charge an EV. To make the most of energy most efficiently, the house uses smart technology to use as much energy as it can once it's harvested. This means one can turn on appliances like the washing machine remotely while the sun is at the optimum angle in the sky - perhaps during mid-day when the residents are at work. The house also uses organic materials and is designed to save as much energy as possible. Read more at Wired.

How long will the 'golden age' of performance last?

Sat, Mar 26 2016

High-powered sports and luxury cars were everywhere at the New York Auto Show, prompting the obvious question for enthusiasts: How long will this golden age of performance last? Industry leaders have some time before regulations elevate the Corporate Average Fuel Economy level in 2025. Even then, they expect cars rippling with power to survive in some form. "Is it the end of an era," I don't think so," said Ola Kallenius, Daimler AG board member for Mercedes-Benz cars marketing and sales. "That performance element of individual mobility I don't think will ever go away." Kallenius, who oversaw the company's AMG division from 2010-2013, expects it to continue to grow. Last year, AMG sold a record 68,875 units around the world, an increase of 44.6 percent over 2014, with strong growth in the US, China, and Germany. Still, there's always the potential for gas to spike, and pending fuel economy regulations are looming. That could lead AMG to add electrification to its products, Kallenius said, pointing to the electric SLS as a test case. Chevy is also thinking ahead, said Al Oppenheiser, chief engineer of the Camaro. He wouldn't bite when asked about electrification for the Camaro (he did say "never say never"), but admitted in 2025 "it's going to be pretty tough to sell V8s." For now, things are rosy for muscle cars, and Chevy confidently showcased the 640-hp Camaro ZL1 in coupe and convertible form in New York. "I think that this is truly the golden age of performance," Oppenheiser said. It's hard to disagree. News & Analysis News: The 2017 Mazda MX-5 Miata RF was a show-stopper in New York. Analysis: There was a palpable energy when this RF — for Retractable Fastback — was revealed the night before the show at a trendy off-site venue near the Hudson River. Even as a parade of SUVs and flashy luxury cars rolled out the rest of the week, the Miata remained a hot topic. The Retractable Fastback is really a clever targa top, with part of the roof stowing behind the seats, adding about 100 pounds compared to the standard convertible. It makes the car more practical and arguably more attractive. The RF continues Mazda's tradition of selling the Miata with a hardtop variant. The first and second generations offered a detachable one, and a power retractable hardtop (a $1,700 option) was available on third-gen models. Judging by its reception in New York, the RF could prove to be even more popular than its predecessors.

Recharge Wrap-up: U of M wins Solar Challenge, family attempts record-breaking e-bike ride

Thu, Aug 14 2014

The University of Michigan Solar Car Team has won the 2014 American Solar Challenge. It is the team's eighth national championship, its fifth in a row, and its first using Siemens' product lifecycle management (PLM) software. The race took place over 1,722 miles and seven days traveling across eight states. The team's car, called "Quantum," outpaced the nearest competitor by four hours. Looking forward, Michigan Solar Car Project Manager Pavan Naik says, "The switch to Siemens tools will give us the ability to model and simulate everything and truly allow us to optimize the performance of our new vehicle. As we start on our quest to win the World Solar Challenge in 2015, we'll be leveraging a full complement of PLM solutions." Read more in the press release below. The EcoCar3 competition, in which teams will convert Chevrolet Camaros into hybrid electric cars, begins in September. The various college teams will have four years to lessen the car's environmental impact as much as possible while maintaining performance and, of course, that cool Camaro design. EcoCar3, which is put on by the US Department of Energy and General Motors, kicks off with a workshop in Novi, Michigan from September 16 - 18. Read more at the DOE website at the dedicated EcoCar3 site or watch the announcement video at our previous post. Zap and Jonway Auto are shifting to a high rate of EV production. Zap already has two lines creating the Urbee EV to met demand, and is switching over a third to make electric minivans and SUVs. The company aims to produce 30,000 EVs by 2015 for the Chinese market. Zap says it has a backlog of 25,000 Urbee orders. Read more in the press release below. A family of four hopes to make a world record-breaking, 6,000-mile electric bike journey this fall. The family, which recently drove from Argentina to Montana in a pickup with a camper, will ride from Montana to Maine, then down the East Coast to Florida in an attempt to break the record for longest electric bicycle ride. They'll use two bikes. The Father, Thomas, will ride one of the bikes carrying one of the children, while the rest of the family rides in a support vehicle, with the mother, Dylan, riding the second bike when they can find others to drive. They have started a crowdfunding campaign for some of the equipment needed to document the trip. See the video below or read more at Treehugger.
