1985 Silverado Extended Cab Conversion Rare Squarebody on 2040-cars
Fort Mill, South Carolina, United States
Up for bid, is my 1985 Chevrolet Silverado Extended Cab conversion! Have you ever seen one before? Now your thinking, "Chevrolet never made a Squarebody extended cab"! Well, that is correct. A conversion company named Custom Vehicles International in Arlington, Texas did most of the 2500 trucks done between 1983 and 1987. Another company did some also, but those did not look as good as these( it had a smaller side window). The price for the conversion in 1985 was $6000.00 over cost of the truck!! I bought this actual truck in Arkansas several years ago. It had been there since new, and 2 years ago I pulled it to South Carolina. This is still a PROJECT truck, with some work needing to be done to be a driver. Or you could build an AWESOME show truck, and you know there WON'T BE ANOTHER ONE AROUND!!!! To be driven, it will need new tires, a power brake booster installed (one is included), front brakes, Idler arm and some engine tuneing. This truck runs and drives, but is not roadworthy just yet. This truck has all the Silverado equiptment like power windows, power locks, tilt wheel, am/fm cass radio, a/c (all parts are there, but has no Freon ) and I installed a factory tach. The dash is perfect and the headliner is too. The bed floor is dented pretty good, because it was used as a ..... Truck. I hope someone buys this truck who will love it the way I did, I loved being different. This truck is DIFFERENT!

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
