ITEM: 1990 Chevrolet 454ss truck well preserved in the Tucson, AZ desert.
CONDITION: This is my dream truck, that unfortunately I don't have time or money to complete. This is a true 454ss (see pic of title that has 454 in vin) The previous owner had the engine completely rebuilt top to bottom 2 years ago, transmission serviced at the same time, and complete new exhaust fitted. I can't find any rust on this truck besides extremely light surface rust where undercoating paint wore off. There is no bondo on this truck, and body is extremely straight and free of rust, including the bed. This truck runs very strong and is extremely fast. A/C blows, but isn't cold. Headlights and blinkers work well. Windows and door locks work. All gauges work except for the oil pressure gauge. When I bought the truck, I had new grey leather seats put in.(in one picture of the seats, my camera had something on the lens and it looks like the headrest of the seat is damaged. This is just my camera. The seats are brand new and in excellent condition.) I also had new serpentine belt installed, new alternator, plugs and wires installed, a tune up including resetting and calibrating the computer, replacement of the coolant temp sensor, radiator flush, new fuel pump, new fuel injectors, air filter, and an oil change. I don't have receipts for any of the work, but you will easily understand once you see it and drive it. Please note, that I am selling this truck as is, and have disclosed what I know to be true of the owner's original work history , and the other work I personally had done.
ISSUES: As you can see in the pictures, this truck needs a paint job. The body is extremely straight and has no bondo or repairs but there is a small ding right above the passenger side headlight where the hood meets the grill. It's about the size of a silver dollar and you can see it in the pics. The interior needs attention, including the headliner and inside door panels need recovering( I do have two same year doors with good grey skins I didn't install yet that you can have free.) The original owner painted the dash black....why? Also, the driver's side door is sprung(wont fully latch). The mechanism is shot, but again I have the other doors(these doors also have complete power windows, door locks, etc including patch cords). I took the truck to emissions and passed the loaded test, but not the idle test. The man who just tuned it up and reset the computer said it would need a new catalytic converter and quoted me $167.00 installed including tax. I am not a mechanic. I am actually a school teacher. Therefore, whoever buys this truck needs to know that it will need work to pass emissions, may have issues I am not aware of and is sold as is. Again, see my feedback, and know that I acknowledge everything I can about an item for sale and people are always happy. Thanks.
SHIPPING: I will not arrange shipping, and the truck must be picked up at my house in Tucson, AZ.
PAYMENT: I accept PAYPAL for a down payment and will take the balance in cash upon pickup. Please make full payment and plans to pick up vehicle within 7 days.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories
Wed, 06 Feb 2013As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.
