2004 Chevrolet 3500, 4x4, 4 door, 8ft box, Fisher MM Plow, Ladder Rack.

Exterior - Overall the trucks frame and cab is pretty much rust free, there are a couple of paint chip spots with small signs of rust on hood fenders etc but none on rockers or cab corners.  As you can see in the pics the bad part about the exterior is both rear quarter panels are damaged which is common with these composite bed skins, no frame damage just during the cold these panels get brittle and doesnt take much to crack them!!.  I have done research in past and you can buy these bed replacement panels for about $500/ side and they bolt on.

Interior - Basic interior, crank windows, pleather seats and plastic floors.  Overall I would rate the interior as poor.. I have used this truck for construction it has the typical tears on the front two seats, rear seats have no tears but need extensive cleaning do to tools and materials being placed on them etc.  Seat covers would be the solution!

Mechanical. - As you can see this truck has been driven..  I purchase the truck with 252Kmi from what I was told it was a supervisors fleet truck for a construction company in New England.  When I purchased it showed little sings of wear and made sense that most of the mileage was Highway commuting.  At 263KMi the shop thought I blew a rod so had engine replaced with a junk yard with 92KMI on it so as of now the engine has approx. 180kmi on it after the fact I think it was just and injector!!  Anyways I have the original long block engine that will go with the truck and I have 5 injector cores that will go with the truck also.  I have serviced the Allison trans 2 times over the last 100kmi with Transend. 4x4 works just fine, rear drive shaft u joints have been replaced, most of front end has been replaced, ball joints, ends bearings etc.  Now for the bad..... The engine lost power over 2 years ago - Had the injectors replaced and didn't fix it, have been driving it as is ever since prob about 25kmi that way - I am no diesel tech but by researching online I think its the CP3 which I have a used one on the original engine but never took the time to do the swap.  Doesn't smoke.  The gas gauge don't work, oil pressure gauge don't work (since engine swap), changed cab heater transitor and blower and still don't work (temp wired with cig. lighter!), needs 3 tires on back and needs new rear brakes (frnt brakes are good).

Bottomline, this trucks needs some TLC but it has many working years left to it, it still gets 14mpg in the city.  If you have some mechanical ability you can have the benefits of a $60k truck for a fraction of the price.

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Two More Recalls Push GM Total To 4.8 Million In A Month

Mon, Mar 31 2014

General Motors announced two more recalls late Friday, bringing to 4.8 million the number of cars, trucks and SUVs the automaker has called back for repairs in the past month. The string of recalls, topped by an ignition switch problem in compact cars now linked to 13 crash deaths, has embarrassed the company and sidetracked its new CEO, who started work just over two months ago. GM has admitted knowing about the switch problem a decade ago, yet it didn't recall any cars until February. The recall delay has brought two congressional investigations and probes by the Justice Department and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Late Friday night, GM announced it would recall 490,000 late-model pickup trucks and SUVs because transmission oil cooling lines weren't secured properly in their fittings. Transmission oil can leak from a fitting and hit hot surfaces, causing fires, the company said in a statement. GM said it knows of three fires and no injuries. The recall affects Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks from the 2014 model year, as well as 2015 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe SUVs and the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL SUVs. All have six-speed automatic transmissions. The Silverado is GM's top-selling vehicle and an important profit center for the company. The GMC Sierra also is among GM's top sellers. Dealers will inspect the transmission oil cooling line fittings and make sure they're securely seated, at no cost to owners. Also Friday night, GM announced the recall of 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars because the right front axle shaft can fracture and separate while being driven. The recall affects cars from the 2013 and 2014 model years equipped with 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engines. If a shaft fractures, the wheels would lose power without warning and the cars would coast to a stop. GM says it has warranty reports of several dozen shaft fractures. It is not aware of any crashes or injuries. Dealers will replace the shafts free of charge. The recall allows dealers to resume selling affected Cruzes. GM issued a stop sale order on the cars Thursday night. The recall also covers about 2,500 replacement shafts used to fix manual transmission Cruzes that were recalled last September. In all, GM has recalled 4.8 million vehicles since last month, two million more than the company sold last year in the U.S.
