 1987 Chevrolet silverado k30

Up for auction is my fully restored 1987 big block Chevrolet truck. This truck is my pride and joy and I swore I would never sell it but I have reached a point where I no longer ever drive it or get out and enjoy it. Since I purchased the truck I have only put about 400 miles on the truck so that gives you a little idea of how little this truck gets driven. The main reason I have decided to sell it though is I am looking to purchase a new bass boat for the upcoming 2015 tournament season and I could use the money from the sale of my truck for a down payment on the new boat so here it is. This truck is a absolute beast and looks great doing it at the same time. Not 1 penny was spared on the build. I purchased the truck 3 years ago from the original owner of the truck. He bought the truck new in 1987 and after letting it sit for 12 years do to a bad trans, he decided to restore it about 5 years ago. He did a full cab off build and the results speak for themselves.  There was 11k spent on the body work and paint job alone. The only thing that was not replaced was all the original interior was reinstalled. The interior is still in good shape but I have all new interior for The truck that just needs to be installed. All of the new interior is black in color except for the seats and center console which are a tan leather. Please see the attached pictures but you will see I have a full room of brand new in the box interior for the truck, about $4200.00 worth of new interior to be exact. I have new dash, carpet, bucket seats and center console, rubber headliner with built in speakers, door panels, a/c control panel, blower motor, and I even have a brand new in the box 1 piece window kit with new regulators. This kit alone was $850.00 and it's all new in the box. Trucks also comes with a brand new complete set of auto meter gauges that were installed when I bought the truck and custom dash bezel. Drive train wise  this truck is built right and bullet proof. Truck has a professionally built 468 big block from W.C performance here in Sarasota, fl in it, motor was dyno' d on a stand before being installed in the truck at the time of the build. The motor made 661 hp on cam 2 on the stand. The truck runs good on 93 but is a different beast on cam 2 which is all I run in it. Dana 60 front and corporate 14 bolt in the rear, 4.88 gears front and rear with a spool in the rear and eaton locker in the front. Trans wise the truck has a turbo 400 with 2200 stall and Kevlar clutches. 205 t case and custom traction bars. The truck has disc brakes all the way around.  I'm sure there is a lot of things I missed and if you have any questions please feel free to ask. You can message me or call me on my cell at 941 809 5105. If I mis your call just leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I would be willing to trade for a 2006 or newer bass boat ( ranger, skeeter, nitro or stratos. I am not interested in any other makes so please don't ask) with at least a 200 on it, if the boat is in great shape I will be willing to work with you, other than this I will not except any other trades so please do not waste my time or yours. Please make sure all funds are available before bidding. I payed 15k for the truck 3 years ago. I have since put the brand new 40 inch boggers and 16.5 x 14 wheels on the truck at the tune of  $4000.00 dollars, the auto Meter gauges at $1100.00 and I also have another $4200.00 dollars worth of interior that will come with the truck. Now obviously I do not expect to get all my money out of the truck but please don't insult me with low ball offers. I am starting the bidding at $12,500 with no reserve but I will not except a penny less. The good thing is I don't need the money so if it doesn't sell it doesn't matter. Also keep in mind I have the truck for sale locally and I reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time if truck sells locally. Please see attached photos for the few flaws the truck has. There is a baseball sized spider web in the paint and clear on the drivers door where a dent was removed several years ago by a paint less dent guy and the paint and clear seperated unfortunatly. There is also a spot on the passenger door where the clear coat is burned from trying to buff off 2 sided tape from a old rain guard. Other than these 2 minor spots this truck is cosmetically flawless and 100% rust free. Both cab corners, floor board in the cab, both doors and hood were replaced with new panels from lmc before truck was painted so truck would be 100% rust free.  Thank you for looking and good luck bidding.

*please keep in mind there will be a $2000.00 non refundable deposit due via pay pal within 48 hours of auction close. If full payment is not received via cash in person or wire transfer from bank within 7 days of auction end the $2000.00 deposit will be forfeited and truck will be relisted. Please make sure you have the full amount available before bidding to avoid this happening. Thank you in advance for your understanding on this.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.

Autoblog Minute: VW finds CO2 'irregularities', Takata dropped by automakers, SEMA recap

Fri, Nov 6 2015

Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle, US regulators hit Takata Corporation with a substantial fine, and we head to Las Vegas for a look at tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle. US regulators issue a significant fine to Takata Corporation. And we take a peek inside tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. The VW diesel emissions scandal, first brought to light in September, gets a new wrinkle, as an internal investigation by the German automaker revealed [00:00:30] irregularities in CO2 emissions that could affect approximately 800,000 vehicles. VW estimates the issue could pose a 2-billion euro economic risk. VW claims that most of the vehicles affected have diesel engines, but industry analysts say a 1.4-liter gas engine is also affected. VW says that fuel consumption figures were set too low during the CO2 certification process. During all of this, sales of some diesel-powered Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche models [00:01:00] have been halted. Takata Corporation is back in the news in connection with its deadly airbag scandal. Federal regulators fined Takata $70 million. If the parts supplier does not comply, the fine could balloon to $200 million. Takata was also dropped this week by its biggest customer, Honda. And now, Toyota and Mazda will be following Honda's lead in dropping Takata. We're also hearing that Mitsubishi and Subaru are considering a switch in air-bag inflator suppliers. SEMA 2015 [00:01:30] came and went. We saw offerings from Mopar, like the AWD Challenger concept. Honda unveiled a Ridgeline that it will race at the Baja 1000, which gives us a hint at what future production model could look like. The celebrity presence was also felt in Vegas as it always is. Kid Rock brought a Duramax Diesel Chevy Silverado, and Acura restored and presented Ludacris with his now famous 1993 Acura Legend. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to come back on Saturday for my full recap, [00:02:00] where I'll have some added insight into Hyundai's foray into the luxury sector. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore. Autoblog Minute is a short-form video news series reporting on all things automotive.

Looking back at the Citation IV concept that likely shaped the GM EV1

Wed, Aug 20 2014

Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it. We're not sure how that applies to the GM EV1, but we'd still like to share something from Autoline Daily, an online automotive new show with our friend John McElroy. He's been covering the business for decades now and recently found something interesting: pictures of the 1984 Chevrolet Citation IV concept, seen above. Displayed half a decade before the first electric concept that would become the EV1 (inset), McElroy says it's now clear that the elegant, aerodynamic EV1 took a lot of styling cues from the Citation IV, which was developed in part thanks to GM's new-at-the-time Aerodynamics Laboratory. We agree with him that the spats over the rear wheels, the flush glass, and the covered headlights all bear a certain kind of similarity between the two cars. That the colors almost match is a nice coincidence. The Impact (the concept version of the EV1) looked "frumpier," McElroy says, because it wasn't as long as the Citation. You can read a lot more about the Citation IV here and check out McElroy's thoughts in the video below. Find the Citation starting at around 3:45. This content is hosted by a third party.
