Up for auction is a 1986 GMC shortbed 4WD.  I will try to describe it as accuraely as possible.  Body:  My rating for the body would be fairly solid.  If you are planning on painting the truck I would put on front fenders, outer rockers, and either patch panels or complete bed sides.  They are available in my area for about 300.00 each.  The rust in the rockers and cab corners has only infected the outer portion.  I drove this truck through the winter.  I have photographed all the bad areas of the truck. 

Interior:  The interior looks to be fairly original.  The cab interior is midnight blue.  The seat needs covered, and it needs a new mat or carpeting.  The door panels are nice enough to be re-dyed.  The temp. gauge in the dash does not work, and the speedometer cable is broken.  Both easy fixes, I am just short on time.  Kenwood  detatchable plate CD player in dash, works fine.  The dash has one of the black covers on it, I am sure the original dash underneath is cracked and broken.

Glass:  All glass intact and in good working order.  No breaks or cracks.  Typical scratches from use, and rolling windows up and down.  Rear slider works find.

Drivetrain:  I consider this the strong point of the truck.  The fresh 4 bolt 350 has under 5000 miles on it.  I estimate this because the oil hasn't got dirty yet.  It has a steel crank, flat top pistons and a mild cam, head, and intake combo for pulling and torque.  K&N air filter, and chrome valve covers.  Quadrajet carb.  Reliable, and starts great even in cold weather.  No pumping and pumping to start.  It's right.  It is backed by a turbo 350 that has no issues, with a new process transfer case.  If you notice from the pictures the truck has the more desirable truck 12 bolt in the rear.  No issues with the drivetrain and everything works as it should. 

Wheels-tires-lift:  These items are under two years old.  Four inch suspension lift with polyurethane bushings, new springs, shocks.  Tires are about 60% and are 35x12.50x15.  The wheels are ten inches wide, and have no curbing, marks or even wheel weight marring.  They could use some hand polishing from where I drove the truck through the winter. They are very nice. 

Exhaust:  Truck has headers that leak a little at the collectors.  (imagine that)  The rest of the exhause is pre bent ordered flowmaster 31/2 inch.  Sounds great.

This is a pretty nice truck for the year in my area.  Even though it needs some paint and body work, it still turns a few heads on the way to Lowe's.  My reason for selling is too many projects to fund, and not a lot of time.  Please feel free to ask questions or call at 304.578.1107.  Thanks for looking.

GM posts $4 billion third-quarter profit thanks to trucks and SUVs

Thu, Nov 5 2020

DETROIT — General Motors is posting huge third quarter numbers, pulling in $4 billion in profit over three months after losing money due to the virus outbreak. GM's adjusted earnings were $2.83 per share, easily outpacing Wall Street's per-share projections of $1.43, according to a survey by FactSet. Revenue of $35.5 billion also edged out most expectations. Shares jumped almost 6% before the opening bell Thursday. The company swung back from a $806 million loss in the second quarter, when it was restarting factories shuttered for safety during the early stages of the pandemic. The Detroit automaker joined most global automakers in reporting better-than-expected earnings from July through September as sales across the globe started to rebound from coronavirus lockdowns, especially in China. GM sales in China jumped 12% in the third quarter, with sales of its Buick and Cadillac brands both rising more than 25%. In the U.S., GMÂ’s most profitable market, sales fell 9.9% in the third quarter compared with a year ago, but were a dramatic improvement over the 34% drop in the second quarter. Sales improved sequentially each month, the automaker said, an encouraging trend. GMÂ’s profit was boosted by higher-priced pickup trucks and large SUVs, which have seen strong sales in the U.S. through the pandemic. It was the best quarter on record for GM's Chevrolet Blazer. Sales of the Cadillac XT6 spiked 45% in the U.S. over last year. Large pickups also sold well. GM also said it was pumping $2 billion into its Spring Hill, Tennessee manufacturing plant to push its transition to produce electric vehicles. Last week, crosstown rivals Fiat Chrysler and Ford reported strong third-quarter net income. FCA said it made $1.4 billion for the period, while Ford earned $2.39 billion.

GM might outsource vans to AM General

Thu, Nov 26 2015

General Motors will possibly boost production of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon at the Wentzville Assembly Plant in Missouri by contracting out some commercial van manufacturing to AM General. Demand for the two midsize trucks continues to boom, and GM would like to take advantage of the strong market for them. The possible deal came to light in a letter to workers at the factory, according to Automotive News. "This potential partnership would free up production capacity and allow the organization to capitalize on our ability to build midsize trucks to further satisfy customer demand," a portion of the document allegedly said. AM General would reportedly only take over assembly of the cutaway versions of the Chevy Express and GMC Savana. Customers and critics have quickly embraced the latest Colorado and Canyon since their introduction. The Chevy just won back-to-back Motor Trend Truck of the Year awards. GM also had to add a third shift and extra workers in 2014 just to keep up with demand. The Wentzville plant even increased employment on the weekends earlier in 2015 to assemble an extra 2,000 of the trucks each month. While the two pickups boom, deliveries for the Chevy Express and GMC Savana are down 26.9 percent and 26.6 percent respectively through the first 10 months of the year. GM doesn't break out numbers for the cutaway versions, but they make up about a third of production, according to Automotive News. AM General built the Humvee for the US military and does some contract work with automakers. For example, the company's Indiana factory now produces the Mercedes-Benz R-Class for export to China. Here's hoping this potential deal will help both GM and AM General keep their factories humming. Related Video:

2019 GMC Sierra Denali and its nifty tailgate roll into dealers

Wed, Aug 22 2018

We've got more details about the 2019 GMC Sierra Denali now that it's rolling into dealerships, starting with its floor price of $56,195, including destination fee, for the rear-wheel-drive models. That's a jump of $1,900 over the previous generation of its premium full-size pickup. Four-wheel-drive models start at $60,295. The crew-cab truck has grown in every dimension as well, adding about 4 inches to the wheelbase, nearly 2 inches in length and 1.2 inches in width. There's also nearly 3 inches more rear legroom. Bed options are 5-foot-8 or 6-foot-6. There are three engine options. Two are carryovers from 2018: a 5.3-liter V8 that sends 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission, and an available 6.2-liter V8 that makes 420 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque and mated to a 10-speed automatic. Both come with GM's dynamic fuel management cylinder-deactivation technology to optimize power and fuel efficiency. A new 3.0-liter turbodiesel paired with a 10-speed automatic is expected in early 2019. The EPA hasn't yet released official fuel economy ratings, but GM estimates them at 17 miles per gallon in the city and 23 mpg on the highway for the two-wheel-drive versions, and 15/21 in four-wheel drive. The truck gets adaptive ride control which can adjust the dampers every 2 milliseconds based on real-time monitoring of the road and driver inputs for improved ride and handling. A new traction select system adjusts the transmission shift points, throttle mapping and StabiliTrak to tailor performance to different terrain or weather conditions. Inside the crew cab, there's new Forge leather-appointed seats, open-pore wood trim and dark finished aluminum decor, plus an 8-inch-diagonal HD color touchscreen with embedded navigation and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Most of the other new stuff we've covered before, including new C-shaped LED headlights and LED tail and fog lamps, optional 22-inch wheels, full-color head-up display, trailer-hitch assist apps and cameras, and rear-camera mirror. The truck also loses up to 360 pounds from the outgoing model via a scratch- and dent-resistant carbon-fiber bed box that replaces steel, and use of aluminum in the doors, hood and tailgate.
