See all pictures: 2004 Chevy Van

2004 Chevy Express LS full size (not extended body), 12 passenger van, modified inside (to a lesser degree) to a 5 passenger. I bought it new with a list price of $32,700, it has a $2800 1SB extra package with power options and other extras (I show the original sticker price window tag and other factory paperwork, showing all options, in the pictures). The van has 128,817 miles on it, I have never had any problem with the engine, drive train or anything major except for the transmission...in case it matters, it went very quickly...within 100? miles after showing signs. The only reason I am not fixing it is because I just dont have the money and I dont need the work aspect of the van anymore.
The 6.0 Liter Vortec motor has been regularly serviced at about 6,000 mile intervals. The brakes were recently done completely (every single break part was replaced! at the cost of $2200, by a long time trusted mechanic), this was only needed due to the weight I was carrying. It had normal break work done a little sooner than usual but again, the weight was a factor, there is nothing wrong with them and all functions of the van are fine at this point, its ready to go, after the transmission, of course.

It is a 1 ton or a 3500 (the heaviest load capacity available) and it has heavy duty springs which are not tired, it still sits as new. The motor is very strong, even with the weight, it was very powerful. The rear end is heavy duty locking and has a 3.73 gear ratio and leaks no oil, nor does the engine or transmission. The engine starts right up, sounds normal, the muffler system was also largely replaced fairly recently, there are no odd sounds coming from the motor or anywhere else (you can start it up when you look at it of course). I always had whatever it needed done right away.
The only other problem is with the side doors, I had them fixed once and was only charged $100 (but apparently that was because it was a quick fix which didnt last that long). Apparently they need hinge pins, the hinges are not bent or damaged but the gap between the doors is very close and I dont use them because it got so difficult to get them closed after a while...I recommend not opening them until you are ready to fix the problem. I even disengaged the locks (just by blocking the connection in the door jamb) so they wouldnt unlock and get opened. I would think it shouldn't be a very expensive repair but I never pursued it either. One of the extras that come with the van is a spray can of the same paint color, I show a touch up in the pics over the back wheel well which just started to rust due to a past scrape (I didnt even bondo it, I just sanded it) and you dont even see it unless you really look. There havent been any accidents requiring body work, just bumper related stuff...The headlights had that typical haze which reduces the brightness so I just installed new headlights and all the lights work. I replaced the wipers, the battery was fairly new but I am told when it sits and is not used all the time it go dead, so dont count on much there. When I hook up the jumper cables it starts right up after a minutes time. There is only one key but I have spare remote start/lock remotes as well as the original key-less entry remotes. I have all paperwork to everything, Stereo parts, radio, amps, speakers, roof racks etc., as well as the vans manual and other paperwork.
The van, being a 12 passenger, had rear A/C and heat in separate units with separate switches. The heater took up important space in the back (and neither was needed) and the A/C unit which was located inside the rear doors on the ceiling, and there wasnt enough room to stand up sheets of plywood, so I had to remove that as well. The removal of these 2 units was done professionally and the systems were adjusted under the hood to allow for the removed units. This was done soon after I bought it and I have never had any problem with the heat or A/C. Because the A/C unit was removed, there is a piece of the head lining missing inside the rear doors, which doesnt affect anything..that is shown in the pictures.
Here are some other details which only really pertain if you intend to use the van...there is a nice Nevlen metal cabinet/rack on the left side, there are 24 drawers and a couple new extra drawers and dividers. The cabinet is very secure and I just made sure the screws were all tightened up as well for noise etc. Also, to avoid anyone seeing all the tools in the cabinet (even though the glass is already dark), I painted the inside of the long rear window black, it does not show from the outside, or the inside for that matter. This latex paint will come off with a razor blade easy enough and I did it neatly in case it wasnt needed anymore.
There is a full size spare under the rear or the van, the jack is all there and an additional 4-way tire iron.The rear brake lights have been replaced with aftermarket lights...One light broke and it was too difficult to find a replacement and too costly to buy one from the dealer. The rear door handle, from the inside, is loose or maybe even broken but still works, and the rear door panels which I had removed and stored could stand some new clips or a few small screws if you wanted it to hold on better, it doesnt fall of but is loose (I can do that if you want...with small screws that is). The body is sound but there are a few minor dents but they are not big enough to stand out really, you can see every part of the van in the pictures. There is no rust to speak of, the front bumper is dented but I straightened it out and evened it up, and it can be replaced, of course. The interior is very clean and complete, no damage etc. On the passenger side airbag the dash is bubbled a bit, it came like that from the factory. Basically I took very good care of the van, I never even got stuck with a breakdown.
There is some extra incidentals (not shown) that will be included plus all the paperwork for, and anything to do with the van (racks, stereo etc).
The 'System One' roof rack system is top shelf, I paid $600 for the rack system itself and it served me well. It is all aluminum and stainless steel which is why it is still so nice. It has 4 ratcheting tie downs which are easy to use, quick and effective. It comes with 4 wrenches...I show inside the drivers door, where I store one wrench on each side, they fit perfectly in this spot and are easy to get and you always have one on either side. I also have all the optional parts that I didnt use, ladder pegs etc.
As for payment...cash is preferred, of course...also, please dont attempt to pick things apart to get the agreed price down, everything is shown or explained and I just wont do it unless it happens to be very reasonable. I am located in Woburn MA 01801 Phone: Dave 617 780 9879. I am available most anytime for you to pick it up. Dont hesitate to ask any questions and thanks for looking.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray priced from $51,995*

Fri, 26 Apr 2013

After months of speculation, Chevrolet has finally revealed the official starting price of the 2014 Corvette Stingray. The base MSRP for the 450-horsepower Stingray Coupe will be $51,995, while the Stingray Convertible will go for $56,995 (*both prices include a $995 destination fee). This means that the price increase from 2013 to 2014 is just $1,400 for the coupe and $2,395 for the convertible - pretty modest increases considering the upgrade in specifications. Of course, neither price accounts for the sort of dealer markup that might grace early C7 window stickers, especially since less than a third of all Chevrolet dealers will be allocated Corvette models to sell at the car's launch.
Now, these prices are for the base car, so if you're wondering how much a fully loaded Stingray will run, Chevy has given us a good indication of that as well. The coupe we saw on display at the Detroit Auto Show (shown above), for example, would run $73,360 including options such as the $2,800 Z51 Performance Package, $2,495 competition sport seats and the $1,795 Magnetic Ride Control option - just to name a few. Stepping up to the 3LT trim level that brings a full leather interior will run an extra $8,005 over the base price.
While $20,000 in options may seem like a lot, this "as-tested" price still has the C7 competitively priced against rival coupes like the Porsche 911 and Nissan GT-R. Speaking of price comparisons, Chevrolet also points out that the C7 Stingray Z51 costs $2,200 less than the C6 Grand Sport while delivering better acceleration (0-60 mph in less than four seconds) and improved track performance (including more than 1 g in cornering).

NHTSA closes 4-year GM investigation, issues common sense advisory [w/video]

Thu, Apr 9 2015

Since January 2011, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been investigating a possible problem with corroding brake lines in General Motors' GMT800-platform models, like the Chevrolet Silverado and Suburban and GMC Sierra, in states with salt on their roads in the winter. However, as opposed to launching a full recall of millions of vehicles, the government is issuing a common-sense safety advisory to all drivers in snowy states to keep their vehicle's undercarriage clean. It even has a video explaining things. "Older-model vehicles, often driven in harsh conditions, are subject to corrosion over long periods of time, and we need owners to be vigilant about ensuring they, their passengers, and others on the roads are safe," said NHTSA Administrator Mark Rosekind in the announcement of the end of the investigation. The agency was clear in its report that "brake line corrosion seen in the GM vehicles was not unique," and the government "has not identified a defect that would initiate a recall order." Instead NHTSA is advising drivers, especially those of vehicles from before 2007, to wash their vehicle's undercarriage in the winter and spring to remove salt or other de-icing chemicals. It also recommends regular checks by a mechanic to make sure everything is in proper order. According to the investigation documents, for just the GMT800 platform models, NHTSA found 3,645 complaints of brake line corrosion, which included allegations of 107 crashes and 40 injuries. The issue was found to be more common in vehicles over 10 years old. GM has released a statement (embedded below) that the company "supports the consumer advisory from NHTSA urging regular maintenance and care of brake lines on older vehicles." NHTSA Closes Investigation into Brake-Line Failures NHTSA 13-15 Thursday, April 9, 2015 Agency issues safety advisory on preventing undercarriage corrosion WASHINGTON – The Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) today issued a Safety Advisory and consumer video encouraging owners of model year 2007 and older trucks, SUVs and passenger cars to inspect brake lines and thoroughly wash the underside of their vehicles to remove corrosive salt after the long winter in order to prevent brake-line failures that increase the risk of a crash.
