Hello everyone you are looking at a very hard to find original truck, this truck has been well kept and has original paperwork along with maintenance records.The history of this truck goes as follows. The original owner was a Sammy Gholson who lived in Tucumcari New Mexico. He mainly used the truck for recreational purposes, the truck had a tow bar in front when I purchased it .he would haul the truck up to the mountains for hunting. The truck has the oldschool paper records that were kept in a small plastic slot the most milage recorded on those is 9,000. The truck also has an old Goodwrench dealer sticker on the inside of windshield when I purchased the truck it had 43,000 original miles on it, the service sticker was due at 44,000. Some of the original paper work includes a registration from 1977, Fuel economy booklet ,owners manual ,service parts identification sticker, and a installation manual for the Edelbrock intake that was added in the 80s. This truck was originally a 2 barrel carb setup which was upgraded with a quadjet. Sticker on the radiator support calls for a 2 barrel carb. if you look closely at the engine compartment you will see the fire wall still has its original factory chalk marks. So with all that said Don't miss out on the chance of owning a good restoreable original convertible classic.
Engine This engine has the matching serial number to vin has all original parts except for the intake, and carb. I have used the truck regularly and have maintained the oil and installed new intake gaskets, valve cover gaskets, and thermostat. Transmission Serial numbers also match the vin automatic transmission turbo 350 full time four wheel drive.Transmission shifts smooth Electrical Components All Lighting is fully functional brakes,turn signals running lights high/low beams and cluster lighting. radio not working I've never really bothered with it. cig lighter is good. Air Conditioning fully functional, heater works. ALL gauges are also working and marking as they should. Rust/Body Yes like most all these old trucks it has rust, The rear lower corner behind wheel has rust,front passenger fender has rust, and tail gate has some rust behind the lower trim. Beyond that the floors are solid and wont be a hard restoration if thats what you plan on doing. The body of the truck is not perfect and has been painted once before and will need body work has very small dents and scratches paint is faded and peeling. As far as I can see this truck has never been in any major wreck the frame also has the matching vin number stamped on top rail on driver side engine compartment. Interior The truck has the original front seats the driver was badly worn and the passenger was also a bit worn. Rear seat was missing and I was lucky enough to find one at a local junkyard. I wrapped the seats with Mexican blankets because the vinyl would get too hot in the summer to sit on. Front seat portion of the truck has original rubber mat the rear was recently installed. Suspension/wheels The Jimmy rides on a factory setup and has not to my knowledge been altered in any way, rides and drives real smooth on the freeway. The power steering works excellent, brakes working properly. The truck sits on a set of wild country tires original 16 inch 6 lug steel wheels I also have the spare with an original tire Terms and conditions I hope that about sums it up for you folks if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me I may have missed something.

GM confirms 2015 Silverado, Sierra to get 8-speed automatic
Fri, 18 Jul 2014When viewed alongside the next Ford F-150 and the Ram 1500, there is one thing that seems to be missing from the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Where the F-150 will rely on turbocharging and aluminum architecture and the Ram sports an eight-speed automatic and an air suspension, the General Motors twins lack a big, calling-card feature. They're very good, very refined trucks, but one could argue that they're not terribly innovative.
And while it might not be as flashy a feature as air suspension or a lightweight skin, the Silverado and Sierra will get their own eight-speed automatic for 2015, a transmission that will be paired with the company's Ecotec3 6.2-liter V8. The new cogswapper will also find its way into the GMC Yukon Denali, but for now, there's no indication why the Cadillac Escalade, Suburban, Tahoe and standard Yukon are being left out.
According to GM, the new gearbox is about the same size and weight as the current Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed. By the time the new powertrain combination enters production late this year, the EPA will almost certainly have gotten around to certifying the vehicles' fuel efficiency. Until then, feel free to speculate. The current Silverado with the 6.2 and six-speed auto returns 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 on the highway. How much do you think the eight-speed will improve those figures? Scroll down for the official press blast from General Motors, and then head into Comments.
GM tells NHTSA pickup truck electronic glitch is 'inconsequential'
Wed, 26 Feb 2014
General Motors has been enduring some serious problems with recalls recently, and it is hoping to avoid launching another major safety campaign. 200,921 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups are under the microscope due to a rare problem with their instruments, an issue GM calls calls "inconsequential to motor vehicle safety." The Detroit-based automaker believes that the glitch is so minor that it has filed a petition with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration asking the government safety watchdog for permission to pass on recalling the vehicles.
The fault at issue can occasionally cause the instrument cluster to reset when drivers use the steering wheel controls to browse songs from an external media device connected to the truck's USB ports. If a song's title information exceeds 2,000 bytes, according to The Detroit News, then the instrument panel can reset, which in turn causes the gauges, shift position indicator and cruise control telltale to turn off briefly. When rebooting, other instrument panel lights may briefly illuminate without their functions actually being activated. GM claims that if this does happen, the instrument display lights go out for about 1.5 seconds and the bulb check lasts a further five seconds. However, this snafu has no actual affect on the truck's operation. The glitch is present in trucks built between January 29, 2013, and October 28, 2013.
Chevy and GMC trucks get CNG option pricing
Fri, 18 Apr 2014Chevrolet and GMC have clued us in to pricing of the bi-fuel option for the 2015 Silverado and Sierra 2500HD CNG and 3500HD CNG pickups: it starts at $9,500; we're still missing the rest of the pricing inferred by the word "starts," however. If you remember from the Chicago Auto Show introduction, the 6.0-liter V8 puts out 360 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque when drinking gas, 301 hp and 333 lb-ft when inhaling CNG.
Chevrolet figures that a bi-fuel Silverado HD is worth $2,000 in savings if driven 19,500 miles on CNG and 7,500 miles on gasoline in the span of a year, a recoup rate easily attainable to high-mileage fleet owners. It can be specced on double- and crew-cab pickups with single rear wheels, not on dualies.
The 2015 Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana short-wheelbase passenger and cargo vans also get CNG options, starting at $10,825 for the three-tank system, and $12,090 for the four-tank system that can only be had on the cargo hauler. You'll find a bit more info on all of the permutations in the press release below.
