1971 GMC 2500 PICKUP
This truck underwent a body off frame restoration recently, and has only been driven 2951 miles since!
Keep in mind that the mileage will change, as I still drive it almost daily. This truck was equipped from the factory with Air Conditioning. The cab components are intact, missing the condenser, and compressor, Easy to put back to working order. We are up in the mountains, doesn't get too hot up here.
This is a 3/4 ton, 2 wheel drive, longbed pickup. Everything from front to back, inside and out has been replated, repainted, rebuilt, or replaced. Nothing was left untouched. The list of what has been done to it, is a very long list. But, I will try and summarize, to give you an idea.
Body; cab, bed, front end, suspension, both front and rear, gas tanks, engine, trans. etc. completely disassembled. The body was painted inside and out. Metallic green. Has the paint code sticker attached to the spec. sheet on the inside of the glovebox.
New:
Rubber body mounts, Rubber bed mounts, radiator, upholstery, all new Pro Comp gauges (full set) Sony CD player in dash, 2 stereo amps under the seat. 4 speakers in the doors, 2 each side. Suspension all gone through, ball joints, A-arm bushings, drag link, pitman arm, tie rods, springs (2" longer than factory to correct the front end droop) truck sits level! New brakes: Power booster, dual master cylinder, front disc rotors, calipers, pads, bearings, seals. Rear drums, shoes, and hardware kits. New weather stripping, new window rubber, new tinted glass (ALL) New window rubber, fuzzies, door glass, window regulators, wing windows, wing rubber, and latches.
Totally rebuilt small block Chevy 350. 30 over, RV cam, Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock 600 carb. vac secondaries, electric choke, Hedman headers, full length, HEI ignition. Rebuilt TH 400, with RV shift kit, and cooler. Was a power steering truck, power box replaced with a manual box. Steers very easily, even when sitting still. Class IV 2" receiver hitch with trailer wiring, electric brake controller (dash mounted) New 8 lug alloy rims with new Michelin Radials LT 235/85/16 "E" load rating. over $2k in tires and wheels. Leaf spring rear suspension with air bags above the springs on both sides. Valves on a custom made bracket, locater near the license plate. Corvette style wooden/aluminum steering wheel.
All wiring replaced with a factory kit. New front to back, including lighting and engine harness. Full cab carpeting, recent visors, carpet, door panels, sill plates, seat upholstery, dash pad, glove box, gauges, stereo (nice system) seat belts. Stock gas tank was removed from inside the cab, and replaced with a 24 gallon tank. This tank is mounted under the bed, between the frame rails. Fills from inside the bed. Sprayed in bedliner also.
This truck starts, runs, shifts, steers, drives, and stops excellent. Everything works as it should. A lot of time was put in to lovingly restoring this GMC truck, and it is apparent. I don't think you could find a better one out there. Sure, you may find one with more "bling," but mechanically, this truck is it! Its been a California truck since new (as far as we know) and as such, it is a very dry, rust free truck. This truck was painted almost 10 years ago, and stored inside while the rest of the build was going on. It was just recently machine polished, and hand waxed. Full detail was just done, inside and out.
In closing, if you want one of the nicest restored classic trucks out there, then you've come to the right place. New projects have got in the way, and it's time to make some money, and room. No disappointments, bid to win!! I will do my best to answer all questions, so please ask before you bid. Inspect BEFORE winning this auction. Thank You

2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
GM considering new powertrain options for large SUVs
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Aside from the new General Motors offerings, there's not a whole lot of action going on in the fullsize SUV segment. That doesn't seem to be stopping GM from pushing the envelope in the market as Automotive News is reporting that the automaker is looking to introduce some new powertrain options into the Chevy Tahoe (and Suburban), GMC Yukon (and Yukon XL) and the Cadillac Escalade - all have been redesigned for the 2015 model year.
Now, we already know that GM and Ford are collaborating on nine- and ten-speed transmissions for a broad range of applications (including the big SUVs), but this new report says that GM is also considering other options as a way to one-up the competition and, of course, to optimize fuel economy. AN quotes Jeff Luke, executive chief engineer for GM trucks, as saying that "interesting powertrain technologies" are coming including a return of a hybrid SUV and possibly even a diesel engine. Although it sounds like the latter could come down to how customers respond to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel.
