This was an unmolested one-owner truck when I bought it last year, and then drove it from Bullhead City, AZ to Dallas, TX without any trouble. As good as it was then, the truck is better now that it has been completely disassembled and restored. Every part of this truck is either new or rebuilt to like-new condition. Every nut, bolt, bushing, washer, etc. has been replaced on this truck. This is now a "new" old truck.
Chassis was completely disassembled and then media-blasted and primed and painted with PPG epoxy to GM Chassis Black specs. All new chassis and suspension parts include new shocks, new front coil springs, new rear leaf springs and bushings, new sway bar bushings, new upper/lower ball joints, new upper/lower control arm bushings, new engine mounts, new transmission mount, re-tubed and balanced drive shaft, new U-Joints and Carrier Bearing. Differential is the original Dana 60, 12-bolt rear end.
Engine is a 350 GM Crate from 1993 that was completely rebuilt with new pistons/rocker arms/rods/lifters, carb/intake/electric choke, RV cam, and HEI Ignition/Distributor. OEM exhaust manifolds have been ceramic coated, with new 2 1/4" dual exhaust system and Magna-Flo mufflers. The alternator, P/S pump, water pump, fuel pump, and fan clutch are all new/rebuilt. Transmission is the original TH350 and was rebuilt for this restoration. The Power Brake booster and master cylinder are also new.
Factory A/C includes new evaporator, rebuilt OEM compressor, and new blower motor.
The interior is all new interior including new color-matched OEM door panels with new handles, seat cover, carpet, instrument panel bezel, steering wheel, dash pad, sun visors, and rear view mirror. New door & ignition are matched to same key. Original AM Push-button radio. Front windshield, rear glass, and side vent glass are new.
All body parts were disassembled and individually media-blasted and primed. Body parts that were replaced include new front fenders and new door rocker panels, and only a few minor body repairs were needed for this truck. Bed is as straight as it gets. All body parts were individually painted in original OEM colors, and then assembled. All chrome body trim is new, with new chrome bumpers and turn lenses, new tail light lenses and trim, and new body side lights.
This is a fresh restoration that was just finished in July 2013. It has been, and still is, kept in a garage. It drives great and has a magnificent low rumble with the new exhaust system. An eye-catching truck and great PG'r. If you are ready for a truck you can enjoy and not have to work on, then you have found it. Good luck bidding, and thank you.

Here are all the cars GM is axing as part of its restructuring
Tue, Nov 27 2018GM plans to kill off a couple of great and a few meh cars as part of its restructuring. Here's a rundown of all the cars being phased out of production. None of the vehicles GM axed were SUVs or crossovers. Instead, it was an action reminiscent of what Ford recently decided to do by discontinuing U.S. sales every Blue Oval sedan. GM just didn't explicitly say, "We're killing our cars," like Ford did — probably a smart move by GM. Keep scrolling down to see the full list of deceased GM models. Chevrolet Volt This one was the most surprising of all the cars GM decided to can, primarily because cars with plugs are supposed to be our future. However, maybe consumer demand just isn't quite there yet for a plug-in like the Volt. We came up with all sorts of ideas for what was to blame for the untimely demise of the Volt, so go check that out for a full breakdown of the situation. Cadillac CT6 Here's another car we'll be sad to see go. Cadillac's flagship sedan was such a joy to drive, and it served as the conduit to deliver GM's semi-autonomous Super Cruise system, which still hasn't been surpassed by any other company's technology in our books, even Tesla's Autopilot. That being said, GM does plan to produce the CT6 until March, with the last cars coming off the line set to be twin-turbo V8 V-Series models. If it's going to go, this seems like a pretty great way to make an exit. We'll be patiently awaiting the next flagship Cadillac once this one finally fades away. Chevrolet Impala The Impala is actually a pretty good car. It doesn't sell terribly, and we think it's a completely satisfactory car to drive. However, people would rather have a Traverse or Equinox these days, making the Impala one of the vehicles to find itself on this list. Chevrolet is keeping its smaller brother, the Malibu, but a big, full-size sedan just isn't what people are ordering up these days. It's unfortunate to see it go, but we won't be broken up over it. Chevrolet Cruze We wouldn't rank the Cruze at the top of the compact car class, but if you were looking for a small, cheap American car, it was either this or the Focus. The Cruze had the potential to be a true small performance car if Chevy had ever wanted to make it into one. But sadly, we're seeing it bow out before Chevy ever tried to slot a hot engine and suspension in there to make it competitive with other hot hatches. A Cruze SS would have made enthusiasts take notice.
Ford also working on 200-mile EV to compete with Bolt, Model 3
Fri, Mar 6 2015The Chevrolet Bolt is on a lot of people's radars. You may have even noticed friends and colleagues who harbor very little interest in the automotive world, or anything labeled as "green," who have taken notice of a 200-mile electric vehicle coming out of Detroit. Mass appeal is the idea, after all. You can include Ford in the list of interested parties, in this case with the intention of taking direct aim at the Bolt – and, by proxy, the Tesla Model 3 – with an affordable, long-range EV of its own. Ford will unveil its own long-range EV, positioned to compete with Chevrolet, later this year, according to Automobile. Details are very scarce about Ford's plans, but we do know that the Bolt (or whatever the Chevy all-electric hatchback will end up being called) is expected to offer over 200 miles of driving between charges, with a sticker price around $30,000. The other major player, of course, is Tesla's smaller, more affordable sibling to the Model S. The Model 3, also slated to go on sale in 2017, should cost less than $40,000. While Tesla has established itself in the EV world, another long-range EV out of Detroit would win some customers from the California-based startup. For now, though, we'll just have to wait, as Ford remains tight-lipped about its plans for the car. Automobile predicts a possible unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, what with California's EV mandate being a driver of strategy for various automakers. Most can agree, though, that a larger field of options – while not ideal for backers of the Bolt or Model 3 – will only benefit the car-buying public.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
