If you want a reliable and Very entertaining toy, this is it!! Starts and runs easily, looks terrific, gets lots of attention too!! The truck was built in the 80's as a show truck. Fully detailed undercarriage including fully painted frame and suspension. There is absolutely NO RUST. Anywhere. Every part is painted or finished properly. The top is removable. Bolted in the front with clips in the rear. Takes less than 3 minutes to remove. (2 bolts) Top is the original steel roof with rear glass. (Etched with ghost flames) interior is 2 racing buckets with 6 point harnesses, full carpet, custom door panels, stereo with subs in rear (radio works, subs do not),B & M ratchet floor shifter for the auto trans, lockout switch for the nitrous and a line loc button in the shift knob. Most dash gauges are not connected, voltage gauge works as does the huge tachometer, fuel pressure gauge and the oil pressure and temp gauges. Grant type wood rimmed steering wheel. Truck is equipped with power steering and brakes. There is no air conditioning or heat. Paint finish is glass smooth, looks great but is not perfect. Small dents on drivers side rear of cab and front of bed. Each is about the size of a quarter. The doors open with a push button. There are no door handles. Inside the bed is finished with a platform that incorporates the battery, fuel cell, nitrous tank, and storage. A custom tonneau cover with the Chevy Bowtie covers the bed. There are strobe lights in the bed and grille area for those cruise nights or shows. Under hood is also fully detailed with chrome fasteners or caps, glossy paint on the inner wheelwells and hinges, every item polished or painted. OK, now my favorite part. 383 Stroker small block V8. With nitrous. Have not had it on a dyno. I can if it is important to you before you buy it. Runs perfect. Starts every time on the first try. Sounds great. Truck is stupid fast. Trans can be shifted manually or leave it in drive. 12 Bolt posi rear. Drums in the back, discs up front. Headers and full welded dual exhaust that exits under the rear roll pan The powertrain was built for maximum power and reliability, normal maintenance is all that is required to keep it running well.

WI dealer under fire for selling new GMC to dying, blind 89-year-old WWII vet [w/video]
Thu, 14 Mar 2013
You know, people, getting through this life from one end to the other in one piece really does require just one rule: don't be a prick. If you ever find yourself in a situation of dubious moral standing, take a step back and ask yourself, "Am I being a prick to any person or thing?" If the answer is "yes," then stop what you're doing, apologize and go home. One dealership in Wisconsin could possibly have benefitted from that course of action when it reportedly helped David McMurray con his elderly and disabled parents into buying a brand-new $42,000 GMC Terrain for his use.
According to local news reports, a representative from Palmen Motors visited Harold and Christen Thomsen's home to collect signatures for a loan agreement three weeks before the 89-year-old, legally blind Harold passed away. The World War II veteran was on morphine and in hospice when he signed for the GMC, and his 90-year-old wife suffers from dementia. Even so, upon being discovered, the dealer initially said everything was done "legally." According to Barb Tinkler, McMurray's sister, the sale was a scam that remained hidden until he was busted for an unrelated criminal charge.
GM issues stop-delivery for 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon
Fri, 03 Oct 2014General Motors is issuing a stop-delivery order for its latest midsize pickups, the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, because the driver's side airbag might not be wired correctly. The total number of vehicles affected is still being determined.
According to the statement from GM, the problem, "affects the vehicles' two-stage airbag system by reversing the deployment sequence and disrupting the deployment timing of the driver airbag stages." That means in an accident the bag may not work correctly.
Most of the affected trucks are still on the assembly line, in transit or unsold at dealers, says GM. Until a way to repair the problem is found, customer deliveries are stopped. However, "a small number" of them are in the possession of buyers. GM is contacting these people by phone and by FedEx letter to have the vehicles returned to dealers. In the meantime, they'll be given a loaner to drive.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
