1982 Gmc Caballero Amarillo Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 4.4l on 2040-cars
Manchester, New Hampshire, United States
|
1982 GMC Caballero, GMC's re-badge of the El Camino. I've had this since 2001, it is in running condition and has been on the road a few times this year. This is in unfinished condition, the paint is only a few years old now, it is not a professional spray. It had only been meant to keep the body from rusting while the truck was getting worked on.
The underbody was painted a year ago, as deep in every nook and cranny and frame rail as I could reach. I am selling it because I was laid off last year and no longer have the funds to continue restoring it and do not have the room to keep an unfunded project. As is, it is in driving condition with some new parts all around, like rear springs and shocks, heater-blower control switch, door-window-felts, heat-shielding/anti-vibration masking on the roof, doors and rear cab. Underbody has been cleaned and painted, body was painted to keep car from rusting (it's a preventive paint job, nothing pretty), the bed coated in bedliner. The interior has been stripped, the AC has been removed, the seats are leather buckets but not original to the car. The car will come with lots of parts both new and old including AC parts, the factory manual, assorted fasteners and spare bits, extra wire harnesses, extra gauges, new front springs, new dome light, and lots more. I did register it this year and had it inspected: It failed because of the following: - The heater/defroster blows on 1, 2, and 3 but when on the highest setting the fan stops. I already bought a new switch but it did not fix the problem. So it may be the relay or a ground wire. - The speedometer and odometer are also not working. I think it is the trans end of the speedo cable but am not sure. - The reverse lights did not correspond to the reverse selection on the column. It was just the indicator switch, I reset it and it works fine. The switch is new and slipped out of place. Given the situation I am not looking to put any more work into the vehicle, just sell it As Is. They should be quick fixes if you want to drive the vehicle asap, or easy additions to a restoration. If you have any questions please send a note. I can upload more pictures by request until the last day of the auction I think so if there's something you'd like a closer look at, let me know.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
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.
