I Will be describing my 89 GMC in three simple paragraphs. First I will start with the drivetrain, then move to the exterior, then to the interior.
It has a freshly built 350 engine with a smooth shifting 5-speed manual transmission behind it. The engine has just had about $2500 spent on the top end less then 7 months ago, it has brodix heads and valve cover gaskets on it, the intake is eldelbrock and the less then year old carburetor is a eldelbrock 650. The distributor is a HEI. The truck has a 6AL box on it that is not currently hooked up. It also has a pretty big cam in the truck, but I do not know the specs on it. Engine is about 10-1/10.5-1 compression, estimated between 350 and 375hp. Truck is very strong. Also has headers dual exhaust, it leaves for a very nice sound. The transmission has a new clutch slave cylinder, master cylinder, and new clutch line. Clutch is very strong and all the gears are very smooth. Truck will run 80mph @ 2500 rpm. I have been driving this truck roughly 80 miles to work then 80 home. I also love to get in it and ride around on the weekends.
The exterior of the truck is black. The paint on the sides of the truck is pretty good common scratches and common wear on it. The roof of the truck paint is dull, the inside of the bed is scratched up, but not dented up. Inside of the bed, the roof, and the hood could use some new paint. It has sporty carbon fiber mirrors. This is a rust free truck, you got to love a GM product from the south. The tires on the truck are very wide and very deep in tread 85% All 4 of them are matching. The truck has a 2 inch drop on the front and a 3 inch drop on the back, so its sits beautiful. It rides very smooth for a lowered truck.
The interior is about an 8 out of a 10. The seat is very nice and comfortable. It has a fold down arm rest on the driver side. The carpet and door panels are in very good shape also. The dash is crack free. Factor radio. The heat work amazing. This truck does not have air condition on it right now, but roll the windows down and listen to it sing you a beautiful song with the dual exhaust. The headliner is the main thing you can hit the interior for. It has the board their but needs to be covered. The body of the truck is showing 277K miles. This truck drives like it has less then 100k on it.
So my conclusion, This is a fun truck to ride around town on the weekends, but at the same time it will go on a road trip also. I am not scared to drive this truck anywhere. It is a really good driver quality hot rod. It also has a receiver hitch on the back of it for pulling. If you have any questions please feel free to call me..423-667-7235 Thanks for looking

Disabled man realizes dream of driving with converted pickup truck
Tue, Sep 22 2015A man with a devastating illness is mobile once again thanks to a heavily modified pick up truck. He hopes he can help others in his situation gain the freedom of mobility they need to lead a normal life. Chris Sauerbaum has a physical disability resulting from chronic inflammatory polyneuropathy, a form of muscular dystrophy where the sufferer's immune system attacks their nerves. Sauerbaum lost both of his legs and is bound to a wheelchair. After 11 years of trying, he finally has a vehicle that he can drive. "You might as well be driving a Lamborghini," Sauerbaum told the York Dispatch as the driver side door extended to a lift to accommodate Sauerbaum's wheelchair. "Everyone comes up and talks to you. You come out looking like a Transformer." It wasn't easy getting transportation that fit his needs. First he bought a Chrysler PT Cruiser, which wasn't large enough to handle the equipment needed to convert the car for a legless driver. In 2013, Sauerbaum and his wife Heather Sloat appealed to local businesses and friends for donations. They raised $10,000 and were able to put a downpayment on a GMC Sierra. The truck then underwent $91,000 worth of upgrades. It was completely outfitted for Sauerbaum, with a large lift to bring his wheel chair up to the driver's seat and joysticks doing the work of peddles and the steering wheel. New York's Office of Vocational Rehabilitation paid for the conversion. "Think of it as a big remote controlled car. An 8,000 pound R/C car," Sauerbaum told the Dispatch. After a week and a half of learning the controls, Sauerbaum was able to drive with confidence again. He will no long need to rely on his wife to get him two and from work, an 80-mile trip each day. Sauerbaum and Sloat hope to start a nonprofit called Drive for Independence that will assist other wheelchair-bound people with the costs of getting a converted vehicle that suits their needs. "It's just one piece of the puzzle to get people to work," Sloat told the Dispatch. Related Video: Weird Car News GMC Driving Ownership Truck Videos disabled ms
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.
