I have a very nice 1972 Chevrolet Cheyenne Super Shortbed truck. I have restored it to look like a stock 1972 chevy truck. I didnt want to customize it or anything, just the stock appearance. It has lots of new parts and used all ac delco parts that I could find because I wanted to put back on the factory parts if they were available. I have done a lot of work to this truck and I will tell you as much as I can.

It has the stock 350 engine with the turbo 350 automatic transmission. I left the stock engine and transmission because the next owner may want to put an small block or big block so I left it as is. Still runs great with good power. I have done a few things to the engine. I installed a edelbrock intake and carburetor. I also installed a new water pump, alternator, new belts, hoses, HEI distributor. I basically went through the engine and replaced all the old parts with new. I just rebuilt the factory a/c and installed all new parts. New compressor, condenser, all ac hoses, poa valve, expansion valve, new drier. Blows nice and cold. I powder coated all the a/c brackets as well. I also installed all new wiring under the hood, new ac delco battery and new battery cables.

It has many hard to find options, it has the factory bucket seats w/console, tilt wheel, tachometer and factory a/c. In the interior it has new carpet, new steering wheel, new gauges,I kept the original speedometer and tachometer just freshened them up. It has the rare and hard to find factory FM pushbutton radio and a new speaker. I replaced a lot of little parts in the interior and I wont name them all if you would like to know just ask.

I installed all new brakes on the front and rear. With new rotors and drums, new pads and shoes, new calipers, brake hoses, wheel cylinders and emergency brake lines. I also installed a new power booster and master cylinder.The tires are in very good condition and have only about 5000 miles on them. It has the rally wheels as well and even put new stickers on the caps. I also have the original full wheel covers to go with the truck as well.  I completely rebuilt the front end with all new ac delco parts. I replaced all the tie rods, upper and lower A arm bushings, coil springs, upper and lower ball joints, idler arm, and pitman arm then had it aligned. I also installed new rear coil springs, trailing arm bushings and track bar bushings. All new shocks front and back. It rides very nice, smooth and straight. I also installed all brand new exhaust from the exhaust manifolds all the way back. I installed new 2 1/2" exhaust with flowmaster mufflers. Sounds very nice and has a deep rumble to it.

The paint is in very good shape. It has been repainted and shows very well. There are very few knicks and scratches but nothing major. The body is very straight and no rust. The bed was well taken care of and is in great shape with hardly and dents in the bed. It has all the trim and chrome that was included in the cheyenne super trim level.

It shows 88,000 original miles and I believe this is true because when i replaced the front brakes it still had the original rotors and ball joints. I kept many of the old parts in case the new owner wants them. If you have any other questions just ask. I can pick up the buyer up at the airport if needed or help in shipping the vehicle if this is needed as well.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra debut all-new designs, three new engines

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

General Motors has finally dropped the curtain on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra. Both trucks have undergone substantial revisions with updated versions of the company's 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 engines. In a shot across the bows of both Ford and Chrysler, GM says it won't use a V6 engine adapted from passenger car applications. Instead, it developed the 4.3-liter engine based on its proven truck-duty architecture.
All three mills will boast direct injection fuel systems as well as a new cylinder head design. Combined with a revised piston, the new engines feature a smaller combustion chamber with a compression ratio of 11:1 or higher depending on the application. Cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing are all part of the recipe, and each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with auto grade breaking. So far, no fuel economy or horsepower figures have been released, though GM says the new engines will best their predecessors in both areas.
Outside, the trucks feature a number of enhancements to reduce drag and wind noise, and GM claims both the Silverado and Sierra will offer buyers some of the quietest cabins in the class. Extended cab models now feature front-hinged rear doors to allow easier access to the back passenger area, and Crew Cab buyers can now select between a five-foot, eight-inch bed or a six-foot, six-inch bed. Buyers with a mind toward going off road will also rejoice in the return of the Z71 package, complete with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and additional under-body protection.
