1985 K-10 1/2 Ton 4 X 4 short wheel base.  This truck was bought new in Little Rock, AR, and has remained in Arkansas for its' entire life. We are the third owners.  This truck has always been properly cared for and it definitely shows.  It has all the original paint that is in very good condition, except for the hood which is peeling. The hood could easily be repainted, but we chose to leave all original.  Lots of money has been spent mostly by the second owner.  He wanted the dependability of fuel injection, so he purchased a new GM Ram Jet fuel injected 350 (330 HP) crate motor and had it professionally installed.  This installation included factory fuel pumps in the tanks identical to the 1987 model.  At the time of installation, all new accessories were installed along with factory serpentine belt system. The 700 R4 transmission was also completely rebuilt and beefed up at this time. The truck has approximately 26,000 miles since this work was performed. All door and window rubber and weather strips have been replaced with new.  We have installed a Rough Country 4 inch suspension lift (springs in front/blocks in rear), 35/1250/15 BFG Mud Terrains (currently 75% tread remaining) on the factory rally wheels, all new shocks, new front rotors/pads, repacked front bearings with new seals, and new Pioneer stereo system with Kenwood speakers (in factory locations). Everything works as it should: cold a/c, heat, all gauges, power windows/door locks, wipers, lights, and 4-wheel drive system.  Cruise control is all there, just not hooked up. The truck was ordered from the factory with limited slip differential and engine oil cooler.  This truck has absolutely no rust other than very little surface rust on hood. This truck is very solid and tight.  Lots of receipts on items not mentioned, pictures speak for themselves.  This truck runs, drives, and stops as it should.  Still has the original owner's manuals. Interior is in very good shape with no signs of being smoked in. The factory jack and tools are still mounted under the hood.The odometer is showing 76,555, we do not  know if that is actual. If you have any questions, please email or feel free to call Allen at 479-207-2946.

EcoCar3 will convert Camaro to bitchin' eco rides

Sat, Apr 26 2014

In the 47-year-history of the Chevrolet Camaro, there have been countless college-age kids spending a ton of time getting under the hood and souping 'em up. Now, General Motors is adding a twist to the concept by donating 16 Camaros for the EcoCar challenge that puts university teams together to wring out better fuel-efficiency out of various vehicles. No word on whether there will be donuts on anyone's lawn, as suggested by 80's punks the Dead Milkmen, but the idea's never a bad one. EcoCar3 will feature 16 teams such as Arizona State, Penn State, Ontario's University of Waterloo and, of course, Detroit's Wayne State University. They'll spend the next four years "[reducing] environmental impact, while maintaining the muscle and performance expected from this iconic American car," as the EcoCar organizers say. The goal is to maintain body design and safety standards while boosting efficiency and lowering emissions, but the actual process is far more complicated than that description suggests. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Bosch are among the sponsors of the contest, which is also put on by the US Department of Energy and managed by Argonne National Laboratory. Penn State won Year Two of the three-year EcoCar 2 competition with its E85 plug-in hybrid electric vehicle converted out of a Chevy Malibu. The grand-prize winner of EcoCar2 will be announced in June. Check out the EcoCar3 website and see the announcement video below for more details. This content is hosted by a third party.

Chevy Silverado Midnight Edition, Custom ready to stand out in pickup line

Thu, Feb 12 2015

Chevrolet spent its Chicago Auto Show introducing a pair of fullsize pickups that promise image-conscious buyers a truck experience that goes beyond the standard range, with the murdered-out Midnight Edition and the um, not murdered-out, Custom. Let's start with the Custom, which adds 20-inch alloys, as well as chrome bumpers, mirror caps and door handles to the Silverado LS. Available in both V6 and V8 varieties, and with the customer's choice of two- or four-wheel drive, the Silverado Custom is the decidedly mellower example of Chevy's special edition styling. The Midnight Edition, meanwhile, throws subtlety out the window with a menacing set of visual upgrades. Based on the Z71, the Midnight adds 18-inch wheels, a spray-in bedliner and unique Z71 and Bowtie badges, all in black, of course. The front and rear bumpers, headlamp bezels, tow hooks, mirror caps and door handles, are also finished in the stealthy shade. Check out our live images of both special edition trucks, and let us know what you think down in Comments.

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner

Sat, 24 Aug 2013

For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
