I will be describing this truck in three simple paragraphs.  First I will start with the exterior, then I will go into the interior, and last but not least I will go through the drive train.  This truck has a title but has been registered  In Georgia with a tag receipt and bill of sale.  I have tag receipt and bill of sale in my name.  Title comes with the truck too, but it is old I don't think that it is good anymore.  Truck can still be registered easily.


First of all the exterior:
  It has a recent paint job Painted about 3 months ago with Base/ clear.  The color of the truck is a GM color  ( Victory Red ).  I added new exterior door handles when the truck was painted, new hot rod style mirror's.  Also I installed a new gas tank rubber and gas tank lid, when the truck was painted.
  This truck is strait and very little rust  I have owned the truck for a little over a year.  It was a very solid truck before I decided to paint it.  I have before and after pictures of this truck.  About the only thing not stock on the truck is the bumper on the backIt has a brand new set of aluminum Coy wheels.  The front are 15x7s and the rear are 15x8s.  The truck looks great and turns heads everywhere.  There are a few minor dings in the truck.  This is not a $30,000 dollar show truck.  Just a good looking truck to get out in on the weekends

The Interior: 
The glass in the truck is all in good shape.  The seat has been covered sometime in the past, ( It was the way it is when I bought the truck)  The dash in the truck is in very good shape.  It has dark red carpet in the floor that is in good shape.  The interior is pretty much all original.  It is missing the radio, but still has the stock holes in the dash for it.  The headliner is in good shape and its dark gray.  I have installed new Window rollers and door handles for opening the door.  They are a exact replica of the original ones.

Now for the drive train:
  This truck is 283 V-8 Chevy engine with a 2 speed automatic transmission (Power glide).  Truck came stock with a 6 cylinder and a three speed.  It was like it is now when I bought it.  The 283 Has a set of headers and 2 chamber flow master exhaust.  A Edelbrock carburetor 650.  It also has a small cam.  Not sure the specs of the cam.  The engine runs very strong and solid.  The transmission shifts out like it is suppose to.  It leaks a little transmission fluid when the truck sits.  I think it is coming from the speed o cable.  The speed o does not work on this truck.  The breaks are still the Drums and shoes.  I have added a new power break booster.  and a couple of new break lines.  The truck stops good.  The rear end is out of late 80's early 90's model s-10.  Not sure what gear ratio it is.  Its about perfect for the truck.  The lug pattern is that of an old chevy car, or an s-10  it's 5 on 4 3-4 rather then the original 6 lug.  It is showing 72,051 miles.  It has not worked the whole time that I have owned the truck.  I have put at least 1000 trouble free miles on this truck. 

In conclusion this truck is a great weekend truck to get out of the garage and play with.  Its sounds great, it makes good power for an old heavy truck.  It is very drivable.  It truns a lot of heads.  Me and my wife love getting it out, and riding around in it.  I have it tagged and Insured and get it out on most pretty days even if it's just a trip to the store.  The tires on the front are brand new, the ones on the rear have plenty of life left in them. 
Payment on the truck will be a $250 deposit through pay pal.  The rest of the money can be wired to me through the bank or cash in hand on pick up.
My phone number is 423-667-7235  My name is Matt.  If you have any questions about the truck please give me a call or text.  If I can not get to the phone, I am at work please leave me a message and I will call you back as soon as I get a chance.  Thanks  God Bless!

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
