This is a beautifully restored (body-off) GMC Sierra Classic short box pickup in show ready condition. It took first place in the custom pickup class at the Cedar Rapids Corvette show recently. It never fails to draw positive comments wherever it is. The previous owner was responsible for the bulk of the restoration, and I had the 454 rebuilt by a former Nascar racer last fall. The engine was completely gone through with new Keith Black pistons, setting the compression ratio to use premium pump gas so a person can drive it. It has an Edelbrock carburetor and intake, along with ceramic coated quality headers, with large exhaust out the back. The skinny belts have been replaced with a gorgeous wide serpentine belt system with chrome and polished aluminum pulleys. The heavy duty radiator keeps it running cool, and has never overheated, even when cruising with the air running. It sounds and runs amazing! The factory heavy duty suspension has been slightly lowered, and the factory heavy duty disc brakes are recently replaced. It has factory power steering, power brakes, updated factory air-conditioning, and dual gas tanks (a nice option!). The interior was redone when the paint and body were done. The previous owner spent over $12k on paint alone! The Cragars and tires were new at restoration, and still look new. Body mods include a new custom grille, a new hood with dual scoops, removed drip rails, removed stake pockets on the bed, molded metal rolled rear pan, removed emblems, and painted front bumper for that stealth look.
I have a book with most receipts that will go with the truck. It is a beautiful, great driving truck that you will enjoy while everyone else wishes it was theirs! I require a $2000 deposit (preferably Paypal) within 72 hours of close of auction. Full payment by cashiers check, bank transfer, or cash must be received within 14 days from auction close, and must clear my bank before the vehicle leaves my possession. Shipping or pickup is the buyer's responsibility, but I may be able to help load, etc. My zip code is 52302 so you can figure shipping costs if needed.

Latest Forza Motorsport 5 car pack leaves us scratching our head (in a good way) [w/video]
Wed, Jul 2 2014As we scrolled down the roster of the latest car pack for Forza Motorsport 5, the Hot Wheels Car Pack, our expression became bemused over the strange mix of vehicles that we now have at our disposal. This is quite unlike any of the other sets of DLC Turn 10 Studios has offered. Sure, there are the typical headliner cars – the Lamborghini Veneno and 2015 Audi S3 – that will appeal to the mainstream racing fan or auto enthusiast. But this latest car pack is so jammed full of nuggets of automotive weirdness that it's hard not to get excited. The Hot Wheels pack has no shortage of racers, with a particular focus on historical offerings. A 1939 Auto Union Type D covers the pre-war era of Formula One, while a 1967 Lotus 49 and a 1952 Ferrari 375 represent post-war racing. For a modern twist, a Mazda USF2000 car slots in below the Indy Lights car from the Nurburgring booster pack. From here, things get vintage and weird. There are a pair of delightfully offbeat coupes, in the form of a 1974 Toyota Celica GT and a 1973 Ford XB Falcon GT (here's hoping we get a vintage Holden Monaro in the future). Those two are joined by a 1956 Ford F-100, which your author already plans on converting into a dragster with vinyl flames down the side (because that's what all vintage pickups should be). The new ride we're most excited about, though, is the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500. Yes, that's the van from The A-Team, and we're sure it will prove to be an excellent canvas for the artists of FM5 to cover with airbrushed, fire-breathing unicorns and mystical, gray-haired wizards (or just poorly painted letters that read "Free Candy"). This latest car pack is the final monthly car pack for FM5, although Turn 10 is quick to point out that while the monthly updates are over, there will still be new batches of cars made available to gamers. As for the Hot Wheels pack, it's available now on Xbox Live for $9.99. Scroll down for the press release from Turn 10 Studios, as well as a video of the newest additions to Forza Motorsport 5's vehicle roster. Forza Motorsport 5 Hot Wheels Car Pack Now Available Turn 10 Studios is bringing the Hot Wheels® Car Pack to "Forza Motorsport 5," available for download today. The pack features a collection of vehicles built from the ground up for the new generation that car fans can collect and customize while putting their virtual driving skills to the test.
