This is a very cool old GMC suburban. It is sitting on a mid 70's short bed Chevrolet pickup frame. Thus it rides and handles much better than it did from the factory. It has a 350 V-8 with a 400 turbo transmission, and a 12 bolt rear end. Entire driveline is in very good shape and it runs out just fine. Power steering and power disc brakes. Tilt wheel. The tires are like new. The wheels are factory rally wheels with new stainless steel trim rings and NOS GMC center caps. The rear carpeting and stainless steel bed strips are all new. The front floor was done up with hardwood flooring. Would not be my choice but done OK. It has a new headliner front to back, new tinted side windows, new window rubber seals. Windows all work as they should. Door locks work. Dash is nice. All gauges work except speedometer which sometimes works. Wipers and horn work. It has a complete new wiring system. The body is painted dark blue suede ( not shinny ) with pin stripe accents. It is not show but still very cool looking. ( Note: I was unable to wash the truck before taking these pictures. The stains on the top of the roof are just dirt stains and the truck in general needed a wash job but it was too cold here at the time of pics) You could actually shoot it with a clear coat if shinny is your preference. The body is very solid. I have taken a magnet all over the body and cannot find any body filler anywhere. I believe it to be an all original and rust free body. New foot wells have been welded in. The underside is very solid. Only found 2 very small areas where panels were welded in front floor pans under where your feet would be,( about 6" in diameter each ) and there are still 2 small areas in each corner of the back area near where the bumper brackets come through that could use some repair work. Nothing major or structural. All original body mounts are solid and in great shape. The seats are in great shape. The front is mounted permanently, but the 2 buckets are just screwed down to the wood floor for a temporary fit. I do have a third bench seat that goes with it. Same pattern and material, but in a gray color. The front seat track moves forward and the front seat back leans forward enough for an adult to gain access to the back seats. I am 6 foot tall and 230 lbs, and I can get into the back.  

All in all, this is a solid, rare, and desirable truck that is ready to go to the next level, drive as is, or take it down a notch to make a rat rod out of it. It appears to have been a light blue originally, so some light color sanding on high points could easily turn it into a very cool rat rod. Use it to pull around your gasser, hot rod, race car, street rod, or whatever in style. Throw your company name on the side and go have some fun.

NO TRADES



For those of you over seas; I have sold quite a few cars to guys in Austria, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, Germany, etc. so I know how that works. 
  

Now for the business end. I encourage you, or someone you trust or hire, to come by and check out the vehicle in person. I will refund your deposit if the vehicle does not match the above description. The vehicle does not leave here until all funds clear my bank. Bank and cashiers checks can take up to 10 business days. My bank will give me a letter stating the date when the check will clear. I will forward a copy of the letter to you. Bank transfers can take up to 2 days depending on what time of the day it is initiated on your end. Again, my bank will let me know when it clears. Cash is great if picking it up in person. 

Call me at 314-732-592five to get honest answers to all of your questions BEFORE YOU BID. Thanks, Dave

One more time, NO TRADES, Please do not ask. If you do not know, understand, and accept what "no trades" means, then you surely do not have a car that I would not be interested in. 

I do not respond to low ball offers, text messages, or take offers over the phone. If you want to make an offer, please do so through ebay email. Include your name and contact info. If I feel you are a serious buyer, I will call you back. If you do not hear back from me, then my vehicle must be out of your price range. Once my vehicle hits it's reserve price, I will not end the auction.

I do not give out my reserve price. Too many knuckleheads out there that like to play games with bidding just under the reserve amount with no intention of actually buying a vehicle. Makes it look like schill bidding is going on.  

If you have a feed back rating less that 100% or zero feedback, you might want to check with me before bidding. I will sometimes block or cancel bids if I get a bad feeling for the bidder. 

For you new members, please don't bid unless you know and accept how ebay works and understand that you are legally committing to purchase if you bid. Not following through with a purchase after winning an auction for a new member can result in ebay canceling your membership. 

If you need a good, reliable, dependable, and reasonable shipper, please try Mark and Lorrie at 479-799-1609. Tell them Dave Walters from Fenton, MO told you to call them to get the best rate. 

Thanks to all, good luck with your bidding, and have a great day, Dave

GM recalling 686k Lambda-platform models for hatch repair

Fri, Jul 10 2015

General Motors is recalling 686,287 units of its Lambda platform crossovers. On models equipped with a power rear hatch the system can potentially fail. This campaign includes the 2008-2012 Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. According to GM's documents to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), dirt can get into a portion of the strut that holds up the hatch and cause the part to prematurely fail. There's a redundancy in place called the Prop Rod Recovery system that's designed to shut the liftgate if there's a malfunction. However, if the breakdown happens too quickly after the hatch is opened the prop rod might not work the way it's supposed to. If someone were in the way of the falling liftgate, they could be hurt. For the repair, dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit to prevent the hatch from closing so quickly. They'll also check the operation of the system afterward.

The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall. CONSEQUENCE: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.

GM announces net 220 job increase as Trump visits Michigan

Wed, Mar 15 2017

GM announced today that about 900 jobs would be added (or, importantly, retained) ahead of President Trump's arrival in Michigan, where he is expected to discuss his plan to roll back fuel economy standards. The timing of the announcement is almost certainly not coincidental, as appending it to a Trump visit gives it a higher profile and dovetails with the President's jobs agenda. It's less likely the decision itself was made for those reasons, but the free PR boost is a nice bonus. As for those 900 jobs themselves, they aren't all new jobs. The only net gain is approximately 220 jobs at the Romulus Powertrain Plant, which produces the 10-speed automatic transmission that's proliferating through the company's lineup. The 180 jobs at Flint Assembly and 500 jobs at Lansing Delta Township are retained jobs – that is to say, spots the company found for workers who would otherwise have been laid off. By the way, the Flint jobs will help with production of heavy-duty pickups, and the Lansing jobs are to produce the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Finding jobs for manufacturing workers in the auto sector, whether new or retained, is admirable. No matter how GM couches it, the company has created or retained a total of 7,000 jobs this year, and its total reinvestment in US production is around $1 billion. But these decisions are business ones, not political ones – timing the announcements to make them seem inspired by economic policy, or the political situation, is simply smart PR.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
