1987 Chevrolet Silverado 454 Rollback Tow Truck Wrecker Beautiful 43,000 Miles! on 2040-cars
Harrisonburg, Virginia, United States
This beautiful truck has been owned by us since basically new. I believe when we bought it in later 1987, it may have had 2000 miles on it. Today, it still only has 42,750 original miles! We bought this to haul vehicles to and from our shop when we started out as a dealer, and have just had it ever since. Never in any collisions, it is basically all original. We did have it repainted about 2 years ago because the paint had faded, but now it has beautiful Dupont base/clear coat. The rollback bed is by Jerr-Dan and is the "Wrangler" model. It has a tow bar on the end, which is adjustable, as well as the slide back/forth and up/down features. The winch works great, and the cable is an extra long (can't remember length) one that we installed a few years back. You can easily tow light duty trucks and any types of cars or vans without a problem. The rotating lights are made by Holmes and work great with switches on the dashboard, accept they were never hooked back up last time the battery was replaced. The engine is the 454 cubic inch big block, throttle body injected model. Starts right up every time, without any issues. Works like a fuel injected model, in which you do not have to pump the gas before you start it. About 6 months ago we had both intake manifolds and gaskets replaced as well as spark plugs, fuel filter, oil, etc. The Va state inspection has run out as well as the tags due to us closing our business, but it should pass without problems in any state. Tires are more than half tread left, brakes are almost new. Headlamps have been upgraded to brighter halogen ones. All fluids are in good condition without any leaks. I would rate the exterior of the truck a 9 out of 10. The only thing that could make it any better would be having the wheels polished. The interior is a strong 9.5 out of 10, with no rips, tears, stains, smells, anything out of the ordinary. It is way to nice to be a tow truck. Again, it was never used for a fleet, just for personal use with our business. Feel free to contact me with any questions at: fixencars@gmail.com and I will be glad to answer any questions, or show you the vehicle in person. Thanks and God Bless! |

2016 Chevy Volt will not need premium gas
Wed, Oct 29 2014Buried in the new technical details of the 2016 Chevy Volt released yesterday was a throwaway line about a small but important change that's due to the new 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine. The first-gen Volt has always required premium gas but the new powerplant will be happy burning plain old regular. The Volt's chief engineer, Andrew Farah, told AutoblogGreen that the change was due to today's Volt owners explaining they were not happy paying for top-shelf petroleum. "The ability to use regular unleaded was based directly on customer feedback," he said. "Since the range extender is an all-new engine, it was optimized to use regular unleaded at the outset. Using regular fuel will not have effect on vehicle acceleration or other performance factors." As Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification, told AutoblogGreen yesterday, the new engine is more powerful and quieter than the outgoing 1.4-liter engine that's used in the current Volt. Fuel economy and EV range specs for the next-gen Volt are not expected until the full car is revealed at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
General Motors Recalls Nearly 780,000 Cars To Fix Deadly Problem
Thu, Feb 13 2014General Motors is recalling nearly 780,000 compact cars in North America because the engines can shut down unexpectedly and cause crashes. The company says six people have been killed in crashes related to the problem. The recall affects Chevrolet Cobalts and Pontiac G5s from the 2005 through 2007 model years. U.S. safety regulators say the weight of the key ring and rough roads can move the ignition switch out of the run position, cutting the engine and electricity. If that happens, air bags may not work. GM says there have been 22 crashes from the problem. All happened at high speeds. Dealers will replace the ignition switch for free. GM says owners should remove nonessential items from key rings until the problem is fixed.
