For Sale By:Private Seller
Mileage: 3,000
Make: GMC
Model: Sierra 1500
Thank you for looking at my 1967 GMC. This truck started life as a 3/4 ton truck . After a dozen plus years sitting on a farm in nebraska, I acquired this truck and began the hot rod project on it. The 3/4 ton suspension was shed in favor of half ton suspension. The donor vehicle for the suspension was a 1974 chevy truck (1500). The bumpers have been tucked and the rear bumper was notched for the exhaust tips. Power is produced by a 355 with a four bolt main, speedpro 10:1 pistons, COMP 268H camshaft, and a set of 487x heads. The engine is topped with a weiand action plus intake. Fuel is supplied by a 600 Edelbrock carb. The transmission is a five speed Getrag Manual from a 1996 chevy truck, The clutch is hydraulic. The truck has power steering. Stopping is achieved through a manual, hydraulic brake system. The front brakes use the rotors and the rear brakes use the drum system from the 1974 chevy truck. The radiator is an aftermarket aluminum unit from speedway. The rear differential is all original from the 1974 chevy and the gear ratio is unknown. The exhaust flows from the headers to the glass pack mufflers and exits out of the back of the truck through a nice set of chrome tips. The fuel tank is from a boat and holds about 22 gallons of fuel. The tank is mounted below the tool box and fills through the toolbox. The vent system could be improved as it is sometimes difficult to fill the tank. The truck has a new windshield and gasket. The windows are operated by the power units, POWER WINDOWS, and controlled by up down switches on the dash. The heater is mounted under the seat and is controlled by a primitive switch behind the the shifter. The heater unit is from the rear area of a retired ambulance. The seat is from a 1989 chevy truck. There is a burn hole in the seat from welding slag. The rockers and cab corners are new. The bodywork is a little rough. The truck is in the early stages of bodywork and shows alot through the satin black paint. The windshield wiper motor also is a little weak. The wipers move across the windshield slowly. This is a functional truck. I use it to haul all kinds of stuff from engines and car parts to an occasional load of brush to the dump. It has a digital speedo that i could not get to work. it has the correct speed sensor. Maybe you will have better luck with it. My number is 712-326-8213. Please try to call after 5 PM central time.

GM recalls trucks and SUVs for brake pedal problem
Thu, Feb 11 2016The Basics: General Motors will recall over 473,000 North American examples of the 2015-2016 Chevrolet Silverado HD, GMC Sierra HD, and police pursuit versions of the Chevy Tahoe. These include 426,573 vehicles in the US and 46,837 in Canada, according to Reuters. The Problem: The brake pivot nut can loosen over time, which can render the pedal inoperative. This would be a danger to drivers trying to stop the vehicles. In some cases, the "Service Engine Soon" light might come on. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The Fix: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt, and if necessary they will apply adhesive to it and reinstall the part with increased torque. If You Own One: "We expect to start customer notifications shortly," GM spokesperson Tom Wilkinson told Autoblog.

If the brake pedal becomes loose or inoperative, it could interfere with the accelerator pedal, and/or the driver may be unable to safely stop the vehicle through application of the brake pedal, potentially affecting stopping distances and increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the pivot bolt installation to determine whether the vehicle has already received the production remedy. If not, the dealer will add adhesive to the nut, and reinstall the nut at an increased torque. Note: This condition may result in the "Service Engine Soon" light illuminating, and brake lights may stay on longer than expected.

GM mulling off-road variants of fullsize SUVs
Tue, 24 Sep 2013According to General Motors, owners "just love off-roading with [its fullsize body-on-frame sport utility vehicles]," namely the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban and GMC Yukon. If that's the case, it's a bit odd that sales of the previous generation of these models with the Z71 off-road package didn't sell particularly well.
Perhaps, considering this disconnect between owner's thoughts and desires with actual sales, it's not surprising that General Motors is reportedly "considering" an off-road specific model. That means the package would include styling changes and badges along with suspension modifications and larger wheels with appropriately sized fender flares.
There's no indication if the off-road model would be called Z71 or when it may potentially go on sale, assuming it ever goes on sale at all.
Chevy Express 1500, GMC Savana 1500 get the axe
Tue, 15 Jul 2014Fans of truck-based, light-duty vans can officially pour one out for the Chevrolet Express 1500 and GMC Savana 1500, as General Motors has officially put its long-serving big/little rigs out to pasture. Things aren't quite as sad as they sound, though. The heavier-duty 2500 and 3500 vans will soldier on, in order to duke it out with the largest members of Ram ProMaster, Ford Transit and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter families.
The move does seem to make a lot of sense. According to GM, customers only purchase the 1500-spec Chevrolet 23 percent of the time, while the GMC captures a mere 7 percent of the Savana family's sales. With numbers like that, it's no shock that GM thinks it can shift some of its buyers into its van family's more capable variants. "We knew we could move a lot of our 1500 customers into 2500-series territory," said GM's Joe Langhauser, the product manager for the company's full-size vans.
It's not just simple sales figures dictating the move, though. The 1500 line is taking up some valuable factory space that will be better spent on an eagerly anticipated new product.
