Mesa, Arizona, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : norinenmmenesez@radiouk.com .
EXTERIOR:
The exterior body and paint was finished 5 years ago by the previous owner,
in the trucks original two toned Hawaiian Blue / Cameo White finish. The paint
is base coat / clear coat applied, and shows extremely well. The body is
straight, but does have a few small brush touch ups from normal roads chips,
etc. Overall, the exterior paint and body on the truck is a solid 7 out of 10.
Shows extremely well, shines well, and should last the new buyer years to
come! The paint and body would be considered a “very nice driver quality”
paintjob that looks beautiful, but has some very small flaws.
In addition to the newer paint, the truck has recieved the following items in
the last few months:
. Brand new exterior upper and lower trim, Cheyenne Emblems, windshield,
and rear glass with new gaskets, new front and rear chrome bumpers, Brand
new sprayed in bedliner from Tuff Skin, with a 5 year transferrable warranty,
brand new staggered 22x9 and 22x11 chrome Ridler wheels with brand new
tires, Complete grille assembly, bowtie, exterior mirrors, brand new HID ultra
clear headlights, new turn, brake, and backup lenses and bulbs, antennae,
deluxe side markers, wipers, gaskets, and complete trim / hardware front to
back! The paint work is 5 years old, but everything else is either brand new
or was replaced with new parts in the past 4 months. The exterior shows
extremely well, is very clean and tidy, and gets many thumbs up anywhere this
old girl goes!
INTERIOR:
The interior of the truck is 90% brand new , with the exception of the inner cab
paint on the inside of the roof and around the back glass inside the truck
which is original, and in immaculant shape! The complete dash, door jambs,
and doors have been repainted recently and are nearly perfect. The following
items have been restored / replaced with brnad new GM parts within the past
few months:
Brand new factory bench seat reupholsted with brand new foam, and custom
vinyl seat cover with custom done plaid inserts that match the trucks finish
beautifully. Brand new factory style blue loop carpet and jute padding, brand
new dash pad, defrost vents, headliner, and trim , sill plates and hardware,
Lecarra leather wrapped steering wheel with brand new Ididit tilt steering
column painted to match the interior of the truck. Brand new gauge bezel

handles, clips, hardware, and arm rests, dome light, cig lighter, door to cab
seals, inner door felts, runners, and wing window rubbers, etc. are all brand
new. The interior is stunning against the trucks exterior and ties into the
Cheyenne theme very well! No disappointments here, beautiful interior that is
almost completely new, and shows extrememly well.
DRIVETRAIN:
The truck is an original 68,000 mile box A truck on the body, with a little over
5k miles on a recently installed GM crate 350 motor with 350 horsepower. The
motor is as sound as they come with the following brand new parts:
. Brand new HEI distributor, plugs, and wires.
. Newer water pump, belts, 4 core radiator, heater hoses, and heater core.
. Factory A/C cab truck that has had the original A/C recently completely
switched over from R12 to a modern 134A system by upgrading all hoses,

ice cold and works perfectly!
. Brand new Edelbrock 600cfm 4 barrel carburator, with new Edelbrock
aluminum performer intake manifold, Newer Hedman headers with 2.5” exhaust
all the way back with new Flowmaster 40 series dual exhaust, side tips, etc.
Sounds Amazing!!!
Mated to the SBC 350 crate motor is a fresh TH350 automatic transmission
that shifts flawlessly and with little effort. New flex plate, torque converter and
bolts. New one piece drive shaft with new u-joints makes its way out to the
trucks factory 12 bolt 373 geared rear end that also works flawlessly and is a

of reliable driveability and fun!

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
