FACTORY K10 SHORT BED 4X4 Please read this entire add before bidding as I believe the add with the pictures will answer most questions. I will go over the good and the bad and tell you everything I know about this truck. Body: The body on this truck is straight and overall solid with some rust bubbling in the lower doors and the lower fender extensions, some small spots above the drip rails and a small spot on the drivers inside rocker panel. The rust is not horrible or rotted out. The passenger side rocker panel was replaced. The floor boards appear to be solid. The bottom of the doors look nice. The trim, chrome on the truck is nice, front bumper and grill surrounds are nice. Paint: As you can see the truck is black in color and shines nicely. This is driver quality paint, it has some checking in spots along with chips and blemishes that have been brush touched. The paint looks good from 10 feet away and would be fine for a daily driver but in my opinion needs to be redone. Running Gear: The truck has the original running gear as far as I can tell to include the closed knuckle front end with power drum brakes. I do not know what gear ratio it has. The frame has a weld on the passenger side (See Pic), I have no idea why its there, however its a very nice clean weld. The truck has a late model gm power steering box that was fitted to the original frame and reinforced with plate steel. Engine and Transmission: The engine is a 454 BBC with a mild cam, the motor sounds great with a mild lope to it, runs nice with good power. The transmission is a turbo 350 that shifts nicely with no slipping, controlled by an aftermarket floor shifter. I do not know the mileage on either the transmission or the engine. Interior: The interior is in nice shape, however needs a dash pad and the visors could use some attention and it could use a carpet kit. The bench seat is in good shape as well. It has a tach dash cluster that works, cd player. All glass is in very nice condition. Overall: This is a great looking, rare short bed K10 4x4 with a 454 that drives down the road nice. This truck gets Lots of attention, nearly every time I drive it someone asks me about it or complements it. I have listed everything I know about the vehicle, the good with the bad so please take time to look at the pictures and judge for yourself. I encourage anyone serious about the truck to come look at it or have someone look at it prior to bidding. I'm listing this truck for a friend who took it on trade for a Porsche he had and has since decided he wants to go in a different direction. The truck is currently registered in CA and has a clear title in my buddies name. Please contact me with any questions you may have, if I can answer them I will or if you would like to speak the owner I can make arrangements for that to happen. This truck will be sold as is, where is. If shipping is required I will do whatever I can to assist, however the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
GM recalling 686k Lambda-platform models for hatch repair
Fri, Jul 10 2015General Motors is recalling 686,287 units of its Lambda platform crossovers. On models equipped with a power rear hatch the system can potentially fail. This campaign includes the 2008-2012 Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. According to GM's documents to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), dirt can get into a portion of the strut that holds up the hatch and cause the part to prematurely fail. There's a redundancy in place called the Prop Rod Recovery system that's designed to shut the liftgate if there's a malfunction. However, if the breakdown happens too quickly after the hatch is opened the prop rod might not work the way it's supposed to. If someone were in the way of the falling liftgate, they could be hurt. For the repair, dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit to prevent the hatch from closing so quickly. They'll also check the operation of the system afterward.

The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall. CONSEQUENCE: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia
Sun, 03 Feb 2013It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.
