This is my 1979 C30 1 ton Camper Special 9000 GVW single cab rig for sale. I'm the second owner. I bought it in 1986 with 23,000 miles on it. It has full power. Thats brakes being the hydroboost. Power windows. Power door locks and cruise control. That cruise does not work because of a broken blinker arm. It has the 454 engine and the th 400 auto trans. I rebuilt them both about 70,000 miles back because I was towing my 5th wheel and 22 ft boat during simmers. It has a sliding rear window with the cargo lite. It comes with the towing mirrors from the factory. The interior has been replaced about 15 years ago from Danchuck. Thats the seats, door panels, dash and the carpet. They could use a good vacuuming and cleaning. I never had a radio but I have the GM radio to fit it. The rear brakes and wheel cylinders were replaced about 6 months ago. The ac was rebuild and blows ice cold. Its still the R12 freon. I may include some R12 with the sale so the new owner can keep it the way it was designed. The right front fender shows a small dent that was there when I bought the truck. I never fixed it. Tilt steering works great as does everything else but the cruise control. All the glass if great. No issues with any of it I have a few spares to go with the sale. I have a Silverado dash bezel I was going to use but decided not to. Ended up not liking the Chrome. The wheels are factory chrome and they do have light rust on them. I have cleaned them many times but I will let them show what they are like now. I do have some factory wheel locks. It has a dual fuel tank and each one is 20 gallons with factory installed locking gas caps. This is not a beater truck nor has it ever seen the rust belt. It has its dings but no rust belt holes anywhere like you see so often from those areas. I have the original Quadrajet 4 barrel off the truck to run a differnt 4 barrel. It also is a Quadrajet 4 barrel. Its licensed till April 2015 and the cost here in cali is $169.00 for the year. I have always past smog checks easily too. This engine was designed without a EGR valve in the intake manifold because it was an exempt engine from the factory. The 9000 lbs GVW was to avoid smog and carry a camper. It has a towing package accessory from the factory too. I used a Tekonsha prodigy brake controller but its in my other tow rig and wont be part of this sale. The bed has the RBW slides but they will stay. The 5th wheel hitch is not included. I have a new never used tail gate also. The person I bought the rig from had a camper on this rig and the camper tie downs are going with the sale. This is a really nice truck that could be restored easily and used as a show piece. I'm sure I left out some things but if I recall any O will add them.

GM to squeeze out more production capacity for midsize trucks

Tue, May 26 2015

General Motors was predicting a strong showing for the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon before they debuted, and demand among dealers for the midsize trucks even exceeded company's expectations. The positive situation has left GM with a problem, though: finding ways to increase capacity for the pickups at the Wentzville Assembly plant in Missiouri. With a third shift already running, GM has continued to look for ways to build just a few more of the trucks at the plant. The company has plans to hire as many as 1,000 more workers for the Saturday and Sunday shifts to construct an additional 2,000 pickups a month, according to unnamed insiders at the factory speaking to Automotive News. The little adjustments even extend to getting rid of an unpaid break to add 18 minute of assembly time over the course of a day, which equals about 3,500 more vehicles a year. All of this effort comes because the trucks are in such high demand. According to GM's figures, the company has delivered a combined 35,720 units of the Colorado and Canyon from January through April 2015, and the Chevy was the fastest-selling truck in the US for the previous three months. In May, it spent an average of just 12 days in showrooms before being snapped up. And even better for the company, 43 percent of these buyers came from other brands. According to Automotive News, the most popular trade-ins have included the Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma, and Dodge Dakota. Related Video:

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

GM wants to have 10 plug-in models in China in five years

Sun, Apr 24 2016

Last we checked, General Motors was selling all of three plug-in vehicle models in its home country of the US, and is prepared to make the Chevrolet Bolt EV available on these shores later this year. So it's notable that the automaker is hatching plans to have at least 10 plug-in variants for sale in China within the next five years, according to Hybrid Cars. Which plug-ins are coming remains a mystery. GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. The strategy makes sense, as China is now the world's largest car market, and accounts for about a third of GM's annual revenue. The automaker, which operates in China under the SAIC-GM and SAIC-GM-Wuling joint ventures, sells cars there under the Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, and Boujun badges, and has been doing so for the better part of two decades. Most recently, GM started selling a hybrid version of the Buick LaCrosse in China this month. What we do know is that GM is building its Cadillac CT6 Plug-in Hybrid in China, with distribution to be split between China and the US. That model, which is scheduled to start sales by the end of the year, is being built overseas because of a combination of Chinese government support for new-energy vehicle technology through incentives and the fact that battery-pack maker LG Chem makes most of its cells in nearby South Korea. The plug-ins are part of a broader plan by General Motors to either introduce or substantially tweak about 60 models by the end of the decade. With such new models, GM looks to boost unit sales by as much as five percent a year for the next few years. As for the other nine plug-in models slated for China by 2021, the company is mum. GM spokesman Dan Flores declined to comment to AutoblogGreen.
