1987 Chevrolet Silverado Shortbox on 2040-cars
Elk River, Minnesota, United States
Beautiful 2 owner Minnesota truck that has never seen winter or bad weather. I bought it from the original owner in 1998 with 50000 miles on it. It now shows 85527 miles and they are correct. It had been in a minor fender bender when it was new and the right front fender and door had been repaired in 1987 when it was less than a year old. It has had no paint work or repair since. It had been lowered using Bell Tech parts when I purchased it.
I added the dual exhaust, tonneau cover, factory bumper guards and hood ornament. I also added the SS454 wheels which have new B.F. Goodrich radial Ta's on them. The trim on the tailgate is from a Suburban. The tailgate handle is still in the original position, I just never opened the tailgate. One look in the box and it's factory paint tells you that it hasn't been used much. I have the factory tailgate trim as well. The original Uniroyal Tiger Paw spare has never been used. The truck has the fuel injected 305 with the automatic transmission and factory 2:73 gears. It runs and drives excellent and has had no work other than oil changes and tune ups. It is loaded with options: ps, pb, pw, pl, cold ac, dual tanks that work perfect, tilt, factory stereo that works perfect, even the clock keeps perfect time. I also changed steering wheels. The factory red paint is very nice. It has a few stone chips on the hood and behind the wheels but it's a safe bet the truck has never seen a gravel road. It has one small dent on the right front fender. A good paintless dent guy could probably handle although it's in a bad spot being on the factory horizontal body line. The original tan interior is in excellent condition. The dash pad has no cracks, the door panels are perfect and the seat and carpet are in excellent condition. The headliner has started to drop a bit above the drivers side visor but can't be seen unless you lower the visor. I have the original window sticker as well. I am biased because I have owned and enjoyed the truck for 16 years but I would say it's an honest 7 out of 10. It's only for sale to ease the hurt of the price tag on the 2014 Chevy I have ordered. |

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
