Cool old 1965 GMC Suburban Custom 10 (half-ton) Carryall that has spent 31 of the last 33 years sitting in a field in the little farm town of Delta, Utah. It's all original, stock and complete other than the gas tank and radiator fan. The previous owner had it running (he drove it around the neighborhood) from a small fuel tank tucked in the engine compartment. The engine still turns over freely but I haven't tried to get it running.

The VIN is 1001PF10391A. I went online and found a link to a website that decoded it for me. Among other things, the link showed it's a light-duty (6000 pound GVW), short wheelbase (115") version with ambulance doors which is the most desirable body style.

The body is really pretty good. It has typical (but easily fixable) rust in some of the lower portions (see pics). All 4 steel inner fenderwells remain very solid. Marine-grade plywood was used by the factory as flooring in the rear and it's still in great condition. Passenger area floorboards have some small holes but nothing bad. Glass is good other than a two cracks in the windshield and one flat passenger side slider in the rear. Inner latch is broken on right rear door. Red and white paint is original. All hard-to-find trim is still there. Please ask for all my pics; they show everything including the undercarriage.

The running gear is all stock and original. That means a big 305cid GMC V6 running through a four speed manual transmission (GM-420?) to the Dana 60 rear differential (3 lug studs broken on right rear axle). Points, plugs, plug wires and distributor cap are new. Clutch works and transmission shifts easily. Brakes and steering are manual. Brakes don't work but wheel cylinders and master cylinder do not leak. A vintage trailer brake mechanism is visible under the dash and big booster rear leaf springs are visible underneath. It also has a beefy trailer hitch. I think this would be an awesome tow vehicle for a vintage trailer or hot rod. A small-block Chevy engine would be a bolt-in swap if you're so inclined.

The interior is in great, original condition. Dash is excellent with no cutting or butchery of any kind. All buttons, knobs, and switches are still there other than the ignition switch and 3 plastic HVAC lever caps. Even the original AM radio is still there (and it came with a vintage below-dash 8 track deck and speakers that I'll throw in). Headliner is in excellent condition. Windows roll up and down properly. Doors open and close properly as well. Original upholstery is rough in the front but can be used as a pattern. And again, floorboards remain in very decent shape (see pics).

This is such an awesome rig. It's all there and is wonderfully original. I hope she finds a home with someone who will treat her like the rare beast she is and perhaps bring her back to her former glory. Just my two cents.

My name is Chris and I am happy to answer your questions. Please call me at 435-669-1470. I also have tons of pictures that show every nook and cranny in great detail. Send me your email address and I'll get them to you. This sweet, rare, vintage, half-ton Suburban is located in the dry, desert community of Hurricane, Utah (a little over 100 miles north of Las Vegas). Thank you very much for your interest.

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773

Fri, Mar 24 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna.Â Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts Â– Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify Â– Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS Â– Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 Â– Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email Â– Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

2021 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon facelift spied

Fri, Sep 20 2019

The Chevy Colorado and its GMC Canyon twin have been on sale for a good long time now, and while things move a little more slowly on the truck side when it comes to facelifts and model changeovers, it seems like it’s about time. So itÂ’s no surprise to see some lightly camouflaged trucks running around ahead of what appears to be a minor refresh for the 2021 model year. Starting with the Colorado, it appears to have a bowtie hiding behind some camo in the center of the grille, which otherwise looks like the no-bowtie option you can get on 2019-and-up trucks. It could be that Chevy is keeping the no-bowtie grille design but allowing a bowtie to grace it, or it could be misdirection. Either way, the grille pattern adds a bit of flair to the otherwise staid front end design. There also appears to be a bit more shape to the lower air inlet, with echoes of some of the lower fascias of its bigger Silverado stablemate. The Canyon, on the other hand, shows more extensive front-end changes. At first glance, it looks to emulate some variants of the GMC Sierra, which would make sense given those modelsÂ’ changes for the 2020 model year. In particular, this Canyon has hints of Sierra HD, being more square and monolithic than the regular Sierra 1500s, although itÂ’s a little hard to tell with the camo covering the edges of the grille. It could certainly also adopt more rounded corners like the 1500s. Either way, itÂ’s more vertical and thereÂ’s less differentiation between the upper grille and lower opening. ThereÂ’s nothing in the way of changes around the sides or back, and while there may be some minor changes inside, we arenÂ’t expecting any. The word around town is that this isnÂ’t a full facelift, but rather a minor front end tweak thatÂ’ll just be a regular part of the model-year changeover.Â

370,000 new Silverado and Sierra pickups recalled over fire risk

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

General Motors announced late Friday that it will recall around 370,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra fullsize pickups from the 2014 model year over a possible fire risk. The recall covers select 4.3-liter V6 and 5.3-liter V8 models, which can evidently suffer engine compartment fires due to the overheating of exhaust components. GM notes that the fire issue may be preceded by a check engine light and an "engine power reduced" message on the driver information display.
Thus far, GM is aware of eight fires stemming from this problem (although only three of those incidents affected customer-owned vehicles), and all of the fires were reported in areas with "very cold weather." GM is urging owners to not leave their vehicles unintended while idling. No injuries have resulted from the fires in question.
The Detroit-based automaker has pledged to start mailing out recall letters on January 16. The fix, which involves software reprogramming, is estimated to be a 20-minute repair, and will be made free of charge.
