Hello viewers,you are looking at a nice fairly stock 1987 GMC truck that i've had stored away for 12yrs. Ya,i know it sounds crazy,but this is the truth, I am actually the 3rd owner.the I bought this from a local guy whom had purchased a new crate 355 small block,and had the original turbo 400 trans rebuilt,and got in a little over his head on putting it together. I drove by his place often back in the early 2000's,and asked him what he was going to do with it,as i had seen it dismantled for quite a while,and the body looked great,he said he was going to redo it. A couple months later,he came to me,and asked me if i wanted it,as he wanted to get all the money back for the eng/trans,and the fact that the body was nice,so i grabbed it. I put it back together driveline wise quickly,but then had our first child,and the regular cab wasn't going to fly,so it was parked,and just started,and drove around the block and such,just to keep things moving internally,which in my opinion is very important. The engine runs strong,and has excellent oil pressure,shifts well,the four wheel drive works fine,and has new lock outs on it. In the summer of 2012 I pulled it in from the storage building to the shop,sanded it down to bare metal,as they old grey paint was cracking, but the truck really didn't have much for rust,so had repainted it professionally,and had a new windshield installed,and took it to the local exhaust shop,and had new duals put on it,all the way out the back sides. It has a nice diamondplate toolbox in it. This truck is the first year of fuel inj,as i know of,and has had 2 new inj already installed,a new fuel tank,and pump. The only things that i can think of that may need addressed are- the fuel gauge isn't always accurate,the cruise control is Not hooked up,as i never got the components from him,and the tires that are on it are so/so,but already bought a nice set of 4 matching GOOD YEAR 31/10.50/15'S, and HAVE MOUNTED THEM SINCE PHOTO. These are the factory aluminum wheels in pics,and the original spare is still under the bed . The frame was cleaned,and painted when the bed was off,and the underside of the bed was repainted also. This truck has never been jacked up,or hacked up,it is as said fairly stock,bt looks very nice,and drives well,and i encourage a viewer to look at it in person,or send someone to view. This truck is used,and 25yrs old,so i DO NOT IMPLY ANY TYPE OF WARRANTY,it is exactly what i am explaining,and if you wish for additional pics,or info,please ask. I have about $11,000 in this jewel,and know i won't get it back,but will expect to get something,or it will just go back into storage until my next midlife crisis. Now down to bidding,or offers,as said,would like you,or someone to check it out,if not keep in mind,out of all these yrs,it has been drove only to the exhaust shop,and my daughters school,so don't make an offer unless your serious. This is a NON A/C TRUCK ALSO. IF you bid,and i accept,i wish to have a $500.00 deposit through paypal,and the rest in cash,or good bank money order within 3 days,unless prior spoke of. Thank you for viewing,and please ask ?'s if needed,- and if your wondering if i take partial trades= only if it's a kool pontiac,or chevy,thanks folks

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say
Fri, 05 Apr 2013The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
GMC SIerra Denali is ready to live the high life
Wed, 29 May 2013Between the information for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado High Country and the accidently leaked picture on GMC's consumer site, it didn't take much imagination to envision what the 2014 GMC Sierra Denali would be like. But here it is. Going on sale this fall, the 2014 Sierra Denali will continue to be the most luxurious pickup truck in the General Motors portfolio, while getting more power and technology than ever before.
Like previous models, the 2014 Sierra Denali stands out from lower Sierra models with a big cheese-grater chrome grille, 20-inch chrome wheels and body-color bumpers. Inside, the Denali gets plenty of leather with contrasting stitching, but this is where GMC really steps up from the Silverado High Country with real aluminum trim and a new customizable eight-inch driver display in the gauge cluster. Standard features will include heated and cooled front bucket seats, the Intellilink infotainment system with Bose audio, while the options list offers a Driver Alert Package (with forward collision alert and lane departure warning), a rear-seat entertainment system and a Z71 Off-Road Package.
As for power, the standard engine will be the 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 with its 355 horsepower, and the optional engine will be the new 6.2-liter V8. Although official power figures for the bigger engine aren't in yet, GM is finally putting some estimates on paper expecting around 420 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque to go with a 12,000-pound towing capacity. The new Sierra Denali will be available in either two- or four-wheel drive. Scroll down for more details listed in the official press release.
Surprise! GM putting aluminum in next-gen pickups
Wed, Aug 5 2015Last month, General Motors launched a series of ads touting the benefits of steel over aluminum – specifically, with regard to the Chevy Silverado versus the Ford F-150. (Kind of. We're not sure what a grizzly bear has to do with anything.) We took issue with the ads, with editor in chief Mike Austin saying they "reek of insecurity, and distract from the Silverado's strengths that could be used for positive advertising." But what bothers us more, is that yet another report surfaced claiming anti-aluminum GM will indeed use the weight-saving material in its next-generation fullsize trucks. On Tuesday, GM announced a $877-million investment for its truck plant in Flint, MI. But Reuters says that huge overhaul is because the trucks will use "substantially different equipment than the tools GM uses today." The report specifically states, "People familiar with the company's plans say GM's next-generation pickups and SUVs will make use of various materials, including aluminum and lightweight steel, to shed weight and gain fuel efficiency to meet tougher federal standards." The Silverado already uses a few aluminum components in the engine and hood, and if more widespread use will help GM build its best fullsize trucks ever, then that's great. Honestly, we have no reason to doubt that aluminum will be used in the next Silverado and GMC Sierra. We just hope GM remembers that nothing is ever truly deleted from the bowels of the Internet when it launches the subsequent "look how great aluminum is!" campaign.
