 Up for bids is a very nice 1986 Chevrolet pickup, 2 wheel drive, long bed with the Silverado package which is loaded with options. It has a 305 engine and automatic trans. The truck runs, shifts, and drives great for a 86 model. I think all options work as they should but not sure about the cruise control, will check it again.  This truck has the optional and sought after two tone paint job with the rally wheels which have all the trim rings and center caps on them. Tires are good, think maybe one is showing a little dry rot. The body on this truck is very nice and solid. The only rust on this truck was on the cab corners about the size of a quarter, both were repaired nicely. The wheel wells, the bed, front fenders etc are all rust free. Its a very solid truck. The paint is pretty nice and shiny, would give it probably a 6 or 7 out of ten. It has been touched up a little sometime over the years but is still pretty nice. The interior is good with a new GM style seat cover on it, not the cheap aftermarket kind but a real cover that is hog ringed  on like the factory does, it looks great. The dash has one of the hard shell covers on it, not the cheap cloth ones, and it looks good. the door panels are faded a little but not torn up. Carpet is good, a shampoo job would make it better but its nice as is. The tilt column is nice and tight. I did notice the horn button has a small crack in it as lots of them do.  The complete interior looks very nice.The power windows work as do the power locks. It has a AM FM tape deck, radio works, not sure about the tape deck though. AC has some pressure in the lines but the compressor isn't kicking on so im guessing it needs a little charge. It has the dual gas tanks and they both seem to work fine and the gauge works as supposed to. The battery gauge doesn't move, may just be a bad conection.The front bumper is new but the rear has been damaged a little and straightened, really needs replaced. It looks ok but needs to be replaced to make it look as good as the rest of the truck. Guys this is a very nice 1986 truck but remember this is an 86 model so please don't expect perfection. Its a sharp, clean truck that has all the right options you want in a pickup. It was being built by a friend of mine but he had some finiancial problems so had to give it up before he got it finshed. The engine may have been rebuilt or changed, not sure which, as its been painted up real nice. Email me with any questions you may have before bidding. the buy it now on this truck is more than fair so don't miss out over a few dollars. The truck seems to run out good guys, Ive only put about 10 miles or so on it because of not being licensed but see no problems. The truck is being sold as is.This style of truck is worth more and more all the time as its one that the collectors all look for.  I require a $500 deposit at auctions end. I will give you plenty of time to pick it up or have it shipped as long as its paid for in full within 3 days. Checkout my positive feedback guys, you don't get great feedback like that if you lie and cheat people, I tell it like it is. Rest assure your dealing with an honest ebayer.  I reserve the right to end the auction early should the truck sell locally. If you have less then 10 positive feedback you must contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. PLEASE only bid if you want the truck and will complete the transactions should you be the winning bidder. Thanks for looking and good luck should you decide to bid on this very nice 86 Chevy truck. It has a clean and clear VA title.

Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan

Sat, Dec 6 2014

"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat vs. Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in latest Head 2 Head

Fri, Jan 30 2015

"Olympian" is one of the terms we use to signify the greatest height, the seat of the gods. Yet Mt. Olympus is the second-highest peak in the Balkans ranges, overshadowed by the crest at Musala in Bulgaria's Rila mountains. Both great heights, but one is a little higher. That's how we get the Olympian Chevy Camaro ZL1 pitched at the Musalic Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat in Motor Trend's latest episode of Head 2 Head. The side-by-side spec sheet is filled with farcical numbers. For the ZL1, that's a 6.2-liter V8 with 580 horsepower, 556 pound-feet of torque, a 4,051-pound curb weight, 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 12.2 seconds and a base price of just $57,800. Opposing that, the Hellcat wrings out its 6.2-liter V8 for 707 hp, 650 lb-ft of torque, weighs 4,449 pounds, does the quarter in 11.7 seconds and has a base price of just $60,990. Except in the case of the Hellcat, when Motor Trend put it on the dyno the machine spit out a reading of 672 hp and 606 lb-ft at the wheels. If there's a 10-percent driveline loss through those beefed-up internals and heavy-duty eight-speed transmission, that means the Hellcat is actually rated at about 750 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. But once they get put on a closed-off strip of coast road in Northern California, there are only a few strands of hair between their respective performances. That's not the case for they sensations provide; host Jonny Lieberman calls one of them, "One of the most incredible cars ever made," and says, "It changes everything." Watch the video above to see who got the verdict and how. Related Video:

Junkyard Gem: 1988 Chevrolet Spectrum Sport Coupe

Wed, Aug 23 2023

Before General Motors created the Geo brand for cars built or designed by its overseas partners, the Chevrolet Division put its badges on U.S.-market versions of the Toyota Corolla Sprinter, the Suzuki Cultus and the Isuzu Gemini. Those cars were known as the Nova, the Sprint and the Spectrum, and all became Geos starting with the 1989 model year. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of the last Chevy Spectrums ever sold, found in a Denver self-service yard a few months ago. Midway through 1988, the Chevrolet Spectrum abruptly became the Geo Spectrum and was assigned to the 1989 model year. This car was built in May 1988, making it one of the very last of the pre-Geo Spectrums. The Chevrolet/Geo Spectrum was available as a four-door sedan and as a three-door hatchback, from the 1985 through 1989 model years. For 1988 only, a Spectrum Sport Coupe package, featuring some trim upgrades and these rad decals, could be had on the hatchback. This car was essentially identical to its Isuzu-badged counterpart, the I-Mark. In 1988, the MSRP for the cheapest possible Chevy Spectrum hatchback (the stripped-down Spectrum Express) was $6,495, while its somewhat better-equipped I-Mark twin started at $7,439 (that's $17,128 and $19,617 in 2023 dollars). Meanwhile, the base Hyundai Excel hatchback listed at $5,295 and the Yugo GV cost a hilarious $4,199 ($13,963 and $10,941 in today's money). Power came from this 1.5-liter SOHC four-cylinder, rated at 70 horsepower. A turbocharged version with 110 horsepower was available as well. You could get an automatic transmission in the Spectrum, but this car has the base five-speed manual. This car didn't get the optional air conditioning, but at least it has the traditional Isuzu HVAC control icons featuring blow-dried hair and high-heeled dominatrix boots. Just over 170,000 miles on the odometer. Someone installed a pretty good (for the 1980s) Blaupunkt Charlotte CR148 cassette deck in the dash. This was a necessity if you wanted to enjoy full appreciation of the music of the era. The Spectrum is special! It's as slick as city rain. "I didn't spend a lot of money but with my Spectrum it looks like I did." Joe Isuzu mocked Toyota salesmen when pitching the I-Mark. As was nearly always the case during the 1980s, the JDM ads for the same car were much more fun. They should have recreated this commercial with Spectrums.
