Vintage 1976 Gmc Chevrolet C15 Sierra Classic Standard Cab Pickup 5.7l Wood Bed on 2040-cars
|
VERY ORIGINAL 1976 GMC Pickup with original WOOD BED I'm the second owner of this pickup and have owned it since 2005. Garaged since 1976. YES, ONLY 85,243 miles!!!! The previous owner had it rustproofed in the 70's and used it only to tow his pontoon boat. I've used it to tow our boat, motorcycles and pickup appliances and large items. Very original. However, non-original items are: air conditioning converted to R-134, for safety reasons I replaced the original driver side and passenger side lap seatbelts with new shoulder harness type belts, by-passed the original (non-repairable) cruise control with a new cruise control, the radiator is not the original brass unit (replacement is aluminum/plastic), replaced the headliner and reupholstered the seat. I have pictures of the original headliner and seat. Meticulously maintained. All regular maintenance up to date with full records since I owned it and some from previous owner. Maintenance DUE mileages / dates included such as: Engine oil and filter, transmission fluid and filter, differential fluid, coolant, brake fluid, bearings packed, power steering fluid. If you provide me an e-mail address I can send the maintenance log in Microsoft Word format. Air conditioning is COLD and heat is HOT. NO cracks in original dash. Antenna in windshield. In the last 20,000 miles the following have been replaced: Radiator, coolant hoses, thermostat, water pump, alternator, air conditioning compressor, air conditioning dryer, all air conditioning O-rings, U-joints, all belts, windshield washer pump, rear leaf springs, all 4 tires (6 years old / 10,000 miles), 6 year battery replaced in 2010, master cylinder, front rotors, front calipers, front brake pads, rear wheel cylinders, rear brake shoes, all brake hoses. Although she gets looks and compliments everywhere she's a driver not a show truck. We have used this truck only on fair weather days but we have USED this truck. Although the paint has been touched up over the years it does have its fair share of nicks and scratches. The worst scratches are just behind the fuel cap (picture included) and of course in the bed, but there are chips on the door edges, the hood, the tailgate.... There is still rustproofing dripping from the bottom of the doors and in the bed, underneath some of the undercoating is peeling off (see pictures). I would call her 99% rust free with no rust holes in the body work. The frame is 100% solid. The wood bed is 100% solid. Mechanically this truck is in excellent condition with all maintenance up to date. You can purchase knowing that nothing needs to be done to have a comfortable, cool, reliable and safe vintage classic truck. I am selling since my wife purchased a Suburban and I can hardly justify having 2 truck sized vehicles. Although she's been very reliable and maintenance is up to date (I probably don't need to say this), but NO WARRANTY is included or implied. Acceptable condition of the truck is ultimately the responsibility of the buyer.....it is, after all a 38 year old vehicle. A $500 deposit to be made by paypal within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction. The balance of the auction in cash to be paid within 7 days. If paid by cashiers check, check will clear before truck is shipped. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I do have the truck listed locally and reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells here. Please feel free to call me with questions, Bob 330 327 7069 On Apr-05-14 at 06:11:15 PDT, seller added the following information: If you have zero or negative feedback, please contact me before bidding. Thank you for looking! Bob |

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.

GMC Hummer pickup and SUV previewed in video, set to be revealed in fall
Wed, Jul 29 2020GMC has just provided us with our first good look at the upcoming Hummer EV pickup and SUV. A video was posted online previewing the two models that also happens to feature LeBron James. From clay sculptures to prototypes in various levels of completeness, GM is allowing the world a sneak preview of what’s to come. A couple of the more revealing images come in silhouette photos of both the truck and SUV at the end of the video. The truck has a big four-door crew cab and an exceptionally small bed behind it. The angle from cab to bed is also notable. ItÂ’s not easy to see exactly whatÂ’s going on since itÂ’s shrouded in darkness, but when we saw the Hummer pickup, it was rocking sail panels that resemble the ones on the truck weÂ’re looking at. The truckÂ’s general shape is off-road oriented with squared-off, sharp lines tracing the entire silhouette. Its big, knobby tires and blocky wheels are clear indicators of what GM was aiming for with this electric pickup. As for the SUV, comparisons to the Ford Bronco four-door will be inevitable. If our eyes are picking up the scale of this photo correctly, though, the Hummer SUV appears to be a slightly larger vehicle than the four-door Bronco is. Although, the wheelbase for the SUV is shorter than that of the Hummer truck. ThatÂ’ll help it off-road. Those small bumpers and short overhangs along with the bumper cutouts should be hugely beneficial to approach and departure angles, as well. Hummer EV prototype View 6 Photos GMCÂ’s shots of the Hummer in the studio are equally as revealing. We can see what looks to be an intense front skid plate and two big tow hooks. In addition to the off-road gear, GMC has allowed a look at the frunk. The front “grille” is one piece with the hood of the truck, so the whole assembly pulls up. That makes for what appears to be a very easy-to-load front trunk compared to other EVs that force you to lift items up and over the front of the car. The whole removable roof assembly is exposed in this video, too. We can see the crossbars that the removable panels attach to and also what the truck looks like with the tops removed. The SUV appeared to have removable roof panels from our short glimpse of it in a studio awhile back. Other new details GM mentioned in the video include Adrenaline Mode, Crab Mode and Next-Gen Super Cruise. We donÂ’t know what Adrenaline Mode or Crab Mode do yet, but theyÂ’re certainly off-road modes that GM has designed specifically for this electric Hummer.
GM announces six new recalls, covering 3.5 million vehicles
Mon, 16 Jun 2014General Motors has just initiated another crushingly large recall, this time affecting some 3.36 million vehicles built between 2000 and 2014 and sold in the US, Canada and Mexico. Once again, the issue surrounds the cars' ignition switches, which can be kicked out of the run position if they're carrying extra weight or if they experience a "jarring" event. In this particular case, though, GM will modify the keys, rather than the ignition itself.
A four-by-six-millimeter hole will be drilled into the key, which will more safely accommodate the weight of the key ring. As is usually the case, the work will be done free of charge. The recalled vehicles include the 2000 to 2005 Cadillac Deville, 2004 to 2005 Buick Regal LS and GS, 2004 to 2011 Cadillac DTS, 2005 to 2009 Buick Lacrosse, 2006 to 2008 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, 2006 to 2011 Buick Lucerne and 2006 to 2014 Chevrolet Impala. Only the Impala is still in production, and even then, it's only sold to fleet companies.
According to an official statement from GM, there have been eight crashes and six injuries due to this latest issue. As if this isn't a dire enough blow for GM, the company has announced five smaller recalls, covering 165,000 vehicles.
