Up for Auction: 1984 Chevrolet Suburban, Silverado Package with a 6.2L diesel engine and only 59,500 original miles.
This truck does NOT have four wheel drive (4x4) or air conditioning. This is a rear wheel drive truck with slip differential and a tow package. Please read this listing thoroughly. Great condition for a 30 (almost) year old truck. This was my daily driver till I recently changed jobs. Solid, dependable, cool looking truck, that is huge and can haul your family or your gear. Plus it is a diesel, so it gets decent mileage considering the size/weight of it. I bought this off of the original owners (garaged its whole life), who apparently did not leave their town that often. It required some work initially, replaced some original components/parts, to enure it could be my daily. I have driven this from Boston to Ohio and back, sat in August bumper to bumper traffic, and started it in February (plugged in) and never had an issue. It is a solid ride, not a show car, but a cool, reliable truck that gets many looks or people coming up to you to say that they used to have one. New parts and or work done since I purchased it. -New radiator -New upper and lower hoses -New fuel filter -2 new batteries -New halogen headlights -New blue carpet floor mats -8 new glow plugs -New glow plug relay -New glow plug solenoid -New master cylinder and brake lines bled -New windshield wiper blades -New/Rebuilt diesel injection pump -New oil filter with oil change -New Chevy road mudflaps -4 New Kelly Safari Truck Tires -New Chevy mudflaps -New Front Bench Seat Cover -Previous owner replaced entire exhaust system less than 8 years ago, solid. Full Disclosure 1. The headliner is sagging. I have held it up with strips of Formica. 2. The radio cuts out sometimes, must be an electrical connection. A slap on the dash gets it started again. 3. Driver side rear panel has two paint discolorations in the silver/grey area. About 3" diameter each. Not sure why this is. They have been touched up with grey paint. 4. Driver side also has a scratch in the silver/grey paint area. About 2' long. Touched up with grey paint. 5. Overall the rust is minor for a truck of this vintage, and spending its whole life in New England. Previous owners had a Rusty Jones undercoating applied when purchased, which is why it has held up this well. No structural rust (frame, body, and mounts are solid), just mostly surface rust if there is any. Except for passenger side wheel well there was a 2" hole, was treated and covered with a stainless steel patch. Also the bottom edge of the 3 out of the 4 doors, only on the interior face (where it is compressed against the gasket when the doors are closed) had some bubbling and splitting due to rust. I cleaned this out, treated with Rust Bullet and painted with blue body paint. 6. Due to the age of the truck, fluids need to be added occasionally, I keep an eye on the levels. But that is too be expected. The transmission has a minor leak our of the rear seal, where it meets the drive shaft coupling. Has not affected the operation of the truck, shifts smoothly and appropriately. 7. This is a 30 year old truck. It is not new, it is not perfect, it is not a show truck. But it is a solid, cool, workhorse that's in really good condition and can be your daily driver if you are kind and take care of it. I repeat this truck does not have 4x4 or Air conditioning. The only reason I am auctioning this truck is because I took a new job 6 months ago which requires me driving 500+ miles a week and head into Boston quite frequently. Needless to say this is not the truck for easy city parking. Please send along questions if you have any. This truck is being sold as is. There are no warranties expressed or implied. I reserve the right to end this auction at my discretion. Pick up and/or delivery arrangements are the full responsibility of the winning bidder. Happy Bidding. |

What if the mid-engine Corvette is really a Cadillac?
Tue, Jun 28 2016Call me crazy, but I'm not convinced the mid-engine Corvette is the next Corvette. The rumor is strong, yes. And, contrary to some of the comments on our site, Car and Driver - leader of the mid-engine Corvette speculation brigade - has a pretty good record predicting future models. But it's another comment that got me thinking: or maybe it's a Cadillac. There is clearly something mid-engine going on at GM, and I think it makes sense for the car to be a Cadillac. First off, check out how sweet the 2002 Cadillac Cien concept car still looks in the photo above. Second, there are too many holes in the mid-engine Corvette theory. There are too many holes in the mid-engine Corvette theory. The C7 is relatively young in Corvette years, starting production almost three years ago as a 2014 model. Showing a 2019 model at the 2018 North American International Auto Show would kill sales of a strong-selling car before its time. Not to mention it would only mean a short run for the Grand Sport, which was the best-selling version of the previous generation. More stuff doesn't add up. Mid-engine cars are, in general, more expensive. Moving the Vette upmarket leaves a void that the Camaro does not fill. There's not much overlap between Camaro and Corvette customers. Corvette owners are older and enjoy features like a big trunk that holds golf clubs. Mid-engine means less trunk space and alienating a happy, loyal buyer. Also, more than 60 years of history. The Corvette is an icon along the likes of the Porsche 911 and Ford Mustang. I'm not sure the car-buying public wants a Corvette that abandons all previous conventions. And big changes bring uncertainty - I don't think GM would make such a risky bet. Chevrolet could build a mid-engine ZR1, you might say, and keep the other Corvettes front-engine. Yes they could, and it would cost a ton of money. And they still need to fund development of that front-engine car. I highly doubt the corporate accountants would go for that. But a Cadillac? Totally. Cadillac is in the middle of a brand repositioning. GM is throwing money at this effort. A mid-engine halo car is the just the splash the brand needs to shake off the ghosts of Fleetwoods past. And it's already in Cadillac President Johan De Nysschen's playbook. He was in charge of Audi's North America arm when the R8 came out. A Caddy sports car priced above $100,000 isn't that unreasonable when you can already price a CTS-V in that range.
First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 engine blows up at just 891 miles
Thu, Jan 1 2015You've waited and watched and waited some more for the arrival of your 650-horsepower, $78,000 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Finally, that joyous day arrives and you eagerly, but gingerly, begin to break-in the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 monster under your hood. Then 900-odd miles after delivery, your excitement grinds, quite literally, to a halt. That's what the owner of one 2015 Z06 claimed happened to him when a simple break-in drive resulted in a lunched engine. The owner, known as Lawdogg149 on Corvette Forum, says he was out breaking-in his car ahead of a January track event when it happened. "While making a pull from 35 miles per hour, I accelerated and shifted short of redline, and boom - the car began knocking. I pulled over and popped the hood. I could hear a loud knock coming from the No. 6 cylinder area along with a serious, grinding, metal-on-metal sound coming from the supercharger area," Lawdogg wrote. A subsequent trip to the dealer confirmed his concerns, with the service facility telling Lawdogg that the No. 6 valvetrain had failed. The dealer couldn't research the issue further, though, as General Motors requested the engine be returned for a more thorough evaluation. The good news for the Z06's unlucky owner, at least, is that GM will be covering the engine replacement under warranty, an expense that Corvette Forum estimates is a nearly $24,000 procedure. At this point, the two leading theories behind the engine's detonation involve a manufacturing defect – which could be why GM is so keen to tear the blown powerplant down – or a mistake on the part of Lawdogg. As Motor Authority points out, such an error could be something as simple as the Z06's owner accidentally shifting to first rather than third during his 35-mph pull. If, however, there's a deeper manufacturing problem with the Z06's engine, this might not be the only case we end up hearing about.
Recharge Wrap-up: Renault Zoe recall, Proterra buses log 2M miles
Fri, Mar 25 2016Renault is recalling 10,649 examples of its Zoe electric car for potential brake hose failure. Cars built at the company's Flins factory between the Zoe's 2012 introduction and October 6, 2014 - a quarter of all Zoes ever built - are subject to the recall, though no accidents have been reported from rupturing brake lines. Recalled vehicles will have the brake hose positions inspected and, if need be, fixed. Read more from Reuters. Proposed legislation in Massachusetts would make the state even more EV friendly. While the state already encourages EV adoption with a $2,500 rebate incentive, the new bill would give battery electric vehicle drivers HOV lane access. Additionally it would set up a standard building code for EV chargers, and allow EV-only parking spaces. "With decreased gas prices, a 10 percent increase in vehicle miles traveled over the last 20 years, and a carpool rate below the national average, we must address personal vehicle use directly as part of our transportation emissions reduction strategy," says Rep. Frank Smizik. Read more from Teslarati. The New York Daily News has named the 2016 Chevrolet Volt as its "Green Machine of the Year." Seamless operation, peppiness, and a nice suite of equipment make it a top choice for the publication. "The 2016 Chevrolet Volt is all new, inside and out, and takes the plug-in hybrid segment to another level, thanks to its increased EV range, updated cabin, and more efficient gas-powered engine," writes Daily News Autos writer (and all-around good guy) Nick Kurczewski. Honorable mentions go to the Tesla Model S, BMW i3, Toyota Prius, and the hydrogen-powered Toyota Mirai. Read more from the Daily News, or at Clean Technica. Proterra electric buses have accumulated 2 million miles of revenue service. That equals 3,800 tons of carbon emissions that have been prevented and 420,000 gallons of fuel unburned. Proterra says it has 63 buses in service in 15 cities, and that it is ramping up production to meet growing demand. "This latest milestone exemplifies the economic, environmental and civic value of electric mass transit," says Proterra CEO Ryan Popple, "and demonstrates to the transit agencies that diesel - often viewed as a necessary evil - is no longer necessary."
