1972 Gmc Jimmy Custom Sport Truck on 2040-cars
Helena, Montana, United States
The engine is the original 350 4bbl to the truck. It and the transmission had been gone through not too long
before the truck was no longer driven. It starts, runs and drives as it should. Everything under the hood is
correct. Everything on the engine is as it was in 1972. Correct date coded quadrajet which I did completely
rebuild, all correct brackets, spark plug wire looms, oil fillers, pulleys, brackets, air cleaner etc. I did of
course replace points, plugs, wires, cap, rotor etc. The air cleaner and a lot of other parts under the hood were
blasted and powdecoated satin black. I installed a new power steering pump, new lines, new rebuilt steering
sector box, new tie rod ends and sleeves new AC Battery, all new shocks, pretty much everything mechanical related
to the brakes front to back, Everything is in proper working order. I had the later 70's GM rally wheels
sandblasted and coated in the correct silver color, then wrapped in new BF Goodrich 33x12.50x15 All terrain TA
KO2's. All new center caps and trim rings of course on the wheels.
There is a brand new windshield and seal in the truck, new top glass weatherstrips, door opening weather strips
etc. etc. This K5 doesn't have so much or a rattle or squeak anywhere in it. The rear hatch has new
weatherstripping and shuts tight. You'll be amazed at how quiet this thing is compared to a lot of others.
I replaced i'd say every light bulb in the truck. Turn signals all work, I did instal a new turn signal switch in
the column so the signals now cancel after you turn a corner. Reverse lights, marker light, 4 way flashers, brake
lights all work. Heater works, original cigarette lighter works, high beam low beam lights work, doors lock and
unlock with the key, dash lights all work. The fuel tank was removed and cleaned, an NOS gm sending unit was
installed so the fuel gauge will work for another 50 years. The AC system is 100% complete and is still charged
with R12 freon. The system is in working order. The compressor makes some noise but does work. I had considered
buying a rebuilt compressor but don't know where I would find more R12 to recharge it. The system could be
converted to R134 if someone cares to do it.
The speedometer, oil, water, and volts gauges all work properly, the horn works perfectly. Also I installed a new
Comfort Grip steering wheel package designed for the 69-72 column.
I don't mean to bore anyone to death, I just want to be as thorough as possible while describing this truck. Other
than the tires, wheels, steering wheels, and 8 track stereo, this ole K5 is dead bone stock. And is so much fun to
drive and enjoy that way. If someone would like white steal wheels with original hubcaps and stock tires, that can
be arranged as well.

2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X Pickup gets a range boost
Thu, Jul 13 2023The 2024 GMC Hummer EV 3X Pickup is getting an update for more range in the new model year. Instead of 355 miles, the new long-range version of the 3X Pickup will go 381 miles. Note that you need to option the 24-module battery pack to get this range figure. However, if you go for the standard 20-module battery pack, GMC says range is improved for 2024, as well. The GM-estimated figure goes from 329 miles for 2023, all the way up to 359 miles for 2024. You should also note that acceleration times are different depending on battery pack, too, as the longer-range model does 0-60 mph in 3.0 seconds versus the 3.5 seconds of the standard range version. The other big choice you’ll need to make is whether or not you tack on the “Extreme Off-Road Package.” This adds 18-inch wheels wrapped by 35-inch mud-terrain tires, four addiitonal underbody camera views for a total of 18, front e-locker with rear virtual locking differentials, heavy-duty ball-spline half-shafts along with more skid plates and underbody shielding. WeÂ’ll also note that range suffers as a result of this equipment. GM only provides the range figure for the upgrade 24-module pack, and it goes down from 381 miles to 359 miles. GMC says the 2024 Hummer 3X Pickup will go on sale to reservation holders this fall and start at $106,945, including the destination charge. Related video:
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
GMC Hummer EV pickup reveal postponed
Wed, Apr 29 2020We’re pretty excited about the all-electric Hummer pickup coming from the GMC brand. GM is too, enough to spend Super Bowl money on an ad teasing it. Today, we received an update from GM about the Hummer EV, with good news and bad news. The bad news: GM has announced that it is postponing the May 20 reveal for the Hummer. With the coronavirus throwing the proverbial wrench into a number of vehicle operations, including reveals, we canÂ’t say weÂ’re surprised at all. The good news, GM assures us, is that development continues “undeterred.” GM understandably hasnÂ’t provided a new debut date for the GMC Hummer EV, but it did provide us with the new short teaser video above. WeÂ’ve seen other details in previous teasers, as well. We were lucky enough to see the Hummer EV in person last month just before the pandemic began causing the world to grind to a halt. At GMÂ’s EV Day at its Warren, Mich., campus, the Hummer pickupÂ’s exterior was on full display. ItÂ’s a big, off-road-ready pickup complete with giant all-terrain rubber and tow hooks. It features removable roof panels for access to the open sky, which appears to be depicted in the teaser above. It features sail panels behind the C-pillars, similar to those on the Chevy Avalanche and Honda Ridgeline. Its bed was concealed with a tonneau cover, but it sported GMCÂ’s MultiPro tailgate that we first saw on the Sierra Denali. Interior photos showed a spacious interior with blocky shapes, squared hourglass vents that mirror the look of the taillights and a lunar theme that incorporates the topography of the Sea of Tranquility into things like the floor mats and speaker covers. It also has a large infotainment screen as well as a digital instrument panel. The Hummer pickup will be offered with a number of electric powertrain options, the most powerful of which will provide 1,000 horsepower and a 0-60 mph time of less than three seconds. Like the rest of the next generation of GM EVs, it will use the automakerÂ’s new Ultium modular battery and powertrain technology. While we donÂ’t have further details about a potential reveal date, we also know a Hummer electric SUV based on the pickup will follow at some point. It, too was on display at GMÂ’s EV Day. It looks exactly like the Hummer pickup from the rear doors forward, but with a shorter wheelbase and enclosed cargo area in the rear. It also sported a liftgate-mounted spare.
