It was garage kept it's entire life and shows it.  It was driven minimally by a disabled senior who eventually could not drive anymore.   There is no rust or corrosion.    A bedliner was installed when it was new, there are no scratches in the bed.   It has never been in an accident.   The original paint and interior looks only a few years old.  The undercarriage of the truck still has black, shiny paint !   The condition of this truck is simply amazing!  If you click on the multiple pictures, and point the curser over them, they will enlarge and you can see in close magnified detail this very clean truck, there is nothing to hide here.   There is NO RESERVE and it will sell for the highest bid.

1985 GMC S15  long bed

Runs and drives well

39,710 original miles

2.8 V6, auto transmission

Loaded with all options, AC, auto, power window, locks, etc.

Bedliner installed when truck was new. Both the bed, paint under the bedliner, and the bedliner itself are xlnt !

Has never towed a trailer

Interior is in mint shape, no dash cracks, no fading, headliner, visors, seats, door panels all very nice

Body and original paint XLNT, no damage or fading

You have to really try hard to find a flaw in the truck

All chrome and plastic exterior trim XLNT, this was garaged so very little aging

Engine bay very clean as it should be with under 40k miles

Undercarriage clean, rust free.  Still has spots where it is still shiny black !

CA registration expired 10/13,  $181 is due to bring to current status in CA.   If you are an OUT OF STATE buyer, you do not have to pay any fees from CA

Spare tire, tools, jack in order

Clear title and all original books




ISSUES:  The engine does not idle smoothly due to a vacuum leak and therefore lean idle.  I know it is a vacuum leak because I can spray carburetor cleaner (fuel)  near the EGR valve/rear of carburetor area and the engine idle speeds up and it idles perfectly.  I can't find where it is coming from, there are lots of vacuum hoses, fittings, and things back there.  It does idle, and runs and drives great,  and you can drive home anywhere,  but just does not idle as it should and eventually this needs to be found and fixed.   There is a very small ding on the bottom of the driver door where it hit a curb or something when opened.  There is a very small chip in the windshield. 


I have the title as seen in the picture.  I can pick you up at the airport or help you arrange auto transport.  I can deliver the truck to the LA area for $125.  If you want to drive it home, I can get you a DMV one trip permit.  I go on vacation JUNE 10, so pickup must be before then or in July.  If this truck is not as I described when you get here, I will return your deposit and you don't have to buy it.  The truck is described very accurately.  $200 deposit by paypal due, the rest cashier check or cash.  I will also take escrow.com payment

GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Why 2015 is going to be a huge year for trucks

Thu, Jan 22 2015

Nissan chief executive Carlos Ghosn took center stage to introduce the 2016 Titan last week at the Detroit Auto Show. He spoke of the truck's new features, impressive Cummins V8 diesel engine and the extensive amount of time and money required to build a modern, competitive pickup truck. "We have done all of this because we see opportunity – an opportunity in the unmet needs of today's American truck customers," Ghosn said. He was speaking about the Titan, but his thoughts echo the industry's mindset: When it comes to trucks, find an opportunity and attack. Even with CAFE regulations looming and fickle consumer preferences, investing in trucks is a no-brainer for automakers. Some consumers will always need a truck for their job or lifestyle. And some people will always want one, whether they need it or not. With that in mind, here are four reasons why the pickup-truck sector is more important than ever and poised for growth in 2015. View 24 Photos The Nissan Titan Is Back Okay, it never left, but the Titan hadn't been redesigned since its launch in 2003, and Nissan sold more NV200s than Titans in 2014. It's an understatement to say the truck was languishing. That all changes with the 2016 model. The Titan will come in two variants, a traditional fullsize competitor and the Titan XD. The XD will lead the market launch, and it arrives late this year. It's pitched as a "whitespace" offering, Nissan sales and marketing vice president Fred Diaz said. The idea is to offer something in the general size and price range of a fullsize truck, but also have some of the capability of a heavy-duty truck. The XD uses a fully boxed ladder frame, the chassis design from Nissan's commercial division, and the wheelbase is about 20 inches longer than other Titan models. The XD, which Nissan is calling the flagship of the line, will be the only model with the 5.0-liter Cummins turbodiesel V8. It produces 310 horsepower and 555 pound-feet of torque, while being able to tow 12,000 pounds. V6 and V8 gasoline models will also be offered on the Titan XD and the standard, non-XD model. When production ramps up, the Titan will be sold with several cabs, beds and trims. New features include trailer sway control, an integrated trailer brake controller, more storage options in the cabin and even laminated front and rear side glass to reduce outside noise. All of this has given Nissan fresh confidence in an area where it admittedly has been lacking. "We can compete," Diaz told Autoblog.
