Wilmington, Illinois, United States

 1984 Chevy Silverado. The color is a Burnt Orange, with some scratches and dents to go along with a Daily Driven vehicle. This Truck is DAILY DRIVEN, so mileage will go up. The mileage is currently around 8,500 since the motor and transmission swap. This truck has a lot of power! I calculate that I get around 16 mpg with this truck, cruising on the highway. I have made multiple 250 mile journeys back and forth from school, reliable truck.

The Good : LQ9 motor swap with 80,000 miles on it from a 2005 Cadillac Escalade.
           4L80e Automatic Transmission from a 2002 Chevy Silverado HD.
           All auto meter gauges.
           7" of Lift
           Diamond Plate Tool Box
     
The Bad :
          Need new tires soon.
          Winch behind the front bumper quit working, not sure what the problem is.
          Power steering pump has small leak from where the hose connects. Could just need a new hose not sure. Been like that for a while, I just watch the fluid levels and it works good.
          Bench seat is like a baby blue.. Nothing a seat cover cant fix.
          Typical rust under the bed for an 84 truck.

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.

GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
