Was my Grandfathers truck. I can't justify keeping it as I need a tow rig with seats for the family. Grandpa putted it to the store and back every couple weeks. 79k on the clock and a desirable 454 and color combo. It drives like a new 28 year old truck and it's mechanically sound as can be. Aesthetically it needs a little TLC as it was stored outside.

Good:
  • 79,200 original miles. Hasn't rolled over. True sub 100k pickup.
  • 454 - Turbo 400 - 14-bolt full floater - Dual tanks.
  • Last year for no catalyst and carb.
  • Full trans rebuild 6500 miles ago (16 years ago, but yeah, 6500 miles).
  • Full brake service including master cylinder 3k miles ago
  • Never smoked in

Bad:

  • Sat outside in Grandpa's driveway its whole life so the paint on the hood and roof is cooked off. It has a few dings and scratches as well.
  • 20 years ago it had a canopy. There are mounting holes and some surface rust on the bed rails.
  • Grandpa apparently never rolled the windows down and both window motors failed within a month of me getting the truck. New motors are $25 on Amazon, I'm just a busy guy.
  • Same thing with the A/C compressor. He never used the A/C and the compressor seized as soon as I turned it on.
  • Drivers vent window lower hinge is broken. It holds itself closed fine but would flap around if you tried to drive with it open.
  • Passenger lock cylinder doesn't seem to match the drivers and should be rekeyed to match.
  • Looks like a loose tire chain beat up the wheel well molding on the left rear.
  • Volt meter doesn't work. Battery and charging system are perfectly functional. All other gauges work including the clock.
Here's a shot of the RPO tag. As you can see this was a heavily optioned truck. G80 locker, dual batteries, tilt, power everything. Not sure if there were any options it didn't have.

Clean title in my name.

Is this GM's next electric crossover?

Thu, Nov 16 2017

GM made headlines this week when CEO Mary Barra presented the company's electrification and automation plans at the Barclays Global Automotive Conference in New York. "We are committed to a future electric vehicle portfolio that will be profitable," Barra said, which could be taken as a jab at Tesla. In the presentation ( PDF here), though, we see a new vehicle in a slide titled "Leveraging existing BEV platform to expand in near term." The vehicle, seen above, accompanied the captions "New CUV entries" and "two entries by 2020." Is this a sneak preview of an upcoming electric crossover from GM? The image seems too realistic and intentional to be a random placeholder. If this is, indeed, an upcoming battery-electric CUV based on the Bolt, the question remains: Will it be a Chevy or a Buick? It has no visible badging, but it shares DNA from both brands. As Inside EVs points out, though, it does bear a resemblance to the Chevrolet FNR-X concept unveiled in Shanghai earlier this year. With two CUVs on the way, it's not unthinkable that there could be a version for each brand. In addition to this slide, the presentation includes plans for an "All new multi-brand, multi-segment platform" launching in 2021. The all-new modular battery system will cost less than $100 per kWh, providing higher energy density and faster charging. The platform will host at least nine different vehicles, including a compact crossover, seven-seat luxury SUV and a large commercial van. GM has said it will launch 20 new EVs by 2023, and that it targets 1 million EV sales per year by 2026. Many of those sales will be in China. Related Video:

Chevy SS to get 1LE-like handling pack

Tue, Feb 17 2015

Chevrolet engineers have more plans for the SS, but official approval stands between their wishes and our driving commands. After getting the no-cost option for a six-speed manual last year, Motor Trend reports that some company boffins want to throw the Camaro's track-focused 1LE package at it. On the Camaro that means the Performance Ride and Handling suspension, front and rear stabilizer bars, and 20-inch wheels all around concerning the road-focused bits. MT says that a 1LE on the SS would shed the staggered tires for one size all around, and get new dampers and a new suspension tune. It wouldn't turn the SS into a Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, but the SS could do even more with its 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet, hopefully without sacrificing too much of its plush road comfort in the process. It's said that a production example could be done in less than six months, but it sounds like the approval process will take longer.

GM starting to talk seriously about 200-mile EV

Sun, Oct 12 2014

We've been hearing word of a 200-mile EV from Chevrolet for a while now. First, there was General Motors then-CEO Dan Akerson hinting at a $30,000, 200-mile EV that would take the competition by surprise. Then Akerson confirmed that GM is working on a 200-mile EV in a speech in March. LG Chem, which supplies batteries to GM and other automakers, recently said it was working on batteries for EVs with a range of 200 miles. GM's head of global product development Mark Reuss just re-confirmed that there are plans for an EV with a 200-mile range, and sources have told Automotive News what that car will be. While Reuss didn't mention anything about a specific model or platform, two undisclosed sources with knowledge of GM's plans have said that an EV with a range of about 200 miles is indeed in the works, and that it will be based on the Chevrolet Sonic. The sources also gave a timeline for the car, saying it is slated for sometime in 2017. According to Reuss, the plan is for Chevy to offer a lineup of electric cars, with the 200-mile EV joining ranks of the Chevrolet Volt and the Spark EV. He didn't hint at a timeline, but if the sources are correct, we could see a Sonic EV being built within a few years. Reuss sees demand for it, too. When speaking of the Spark EV, currently only available in California and Oregon, he says that "people wish we would sell it all around the country." If he's right about that, it's not difficult to imagine people taking interest in Chevrolet's 200-mile electric car, whether or not it's a Sonic.
