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! |

Jay Leno gets pulled over while roaring in a Corvette Z06 convertible
Tue, Jan 6 2015No one is above the law, even if that person is a certain silver-haired auto enthusiast with a popular weekly video series about the cars in his garage. This week, Jay Leno experiences the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z06, but he also gets to have a meeting with some of California's Finest immediately after a high-speed blast. As opposed to the full-bore Z06 coupe with the seven-speed manual, Leno gets behind the wheel of the slightly heavier convertible version with the eight-speed auto. Being a droptop doesn't bother him too much, but Leno makes it obvious he wishes that he could be shifting for himself. Even if the auto is technically quicker, Leno says that swapping gears gives him something to do while driving. Of course, one of the major advantages of the convertible is the ability to listen to the Z06's thumping V8 unimpeded. With 650 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque from 6.2-liters of supercharged muscle, it already puts down impressive numbers, but the sound might just be the best part of all. Around town, the 'Vette is quiet enough to easily blend in with the rest of traffic. However, tip the throttle down and the valves in the exhaust open up to turn the engine into roaring monster. Be careful where you make this thing howl, though, because it's pretty easy for the police to take notice. The host finds that out the hard way in this week's episode of Jay Leno's Garage.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
