1988 Chevy Crew Cab 4x4 K/V30 heavy duty 1 ton with a 1st gen. Cummins turbo diesel. I bought the truck with a blown 454 and put in a low mileage drivetrain from a '92 Dodge truck. The Dodge title (which I have) and odometer read 29K. As for the body and chassis, I don't know exactly how many miles it had but would figure about 200k. Since the conversion i have put about 10-15k on it. I drove the truck for several years after putting it together and it ran very well. The truck has been parked for a few years, during which time the rocker panels and cab corners were replaced. I have painted those areas of the truck but it could use a complete paint job if you want a super nice looking vehicle. The clear coat over the red is rough in some places. It has a very solid body but does have some dents and dings. There is light surface rust in a few areas on the frame and the body. Take a look at the pictures and it should give you an idea of the rust. I raised the body 3 inches to clear the engine and installed new body mounts at that time. The floor pans are solid, however the inside portion where the rocker attaches to has rusted through in a couple places. I sand blasted and repainted all the metal behind the rocker panels and cab corners. This truck was originally sold as a cab and chassis setup, bed was added by previous owner.
Ok, now for the engine, this is a rotary injection pump (has been resealed and had larger fuel pin and 3200 rpm gov. spring installed). There are 2 sets of injectors that come with the truck, factory and a set of 100+hp injectors. The turbo is a later model HX 35 which spools quickly. Boost can hit 30 lbs. The Dodge intercooler and radiator where used. The engine runs smoothly and does not seem to use oil. I fabricated the exhaust from 4 inch pipe starting right behind the turbo. I used the factory Dodge crossmembers for the engine and trans, so mounting points are Dodge design. The truck smokes a little at idle with the big injectors but still gets about 18-20 mpg highway at about 65. I believe rpms are about 2000 at 65.
The trans is the Dodge A518 automatic overdrive. Before it was installed in the truck, I rebuilt the trans with performance parts and a special low stall convertor from DTT. This trans does not have lockup. The convertor holds the power very well and the trans shifts and works well.
The transfer case is the Dodge version of the NP205 cast iron case gear drive. The driveshafts were cut and rebalanced and u joints were replaced at the time of swap. The axles are the original Chevy setup with a Dana 60 solid front axle and an open 14 bolt corporate rear. The ratios are matched at 3.73 and run well on the highway. I currently run 285/75/16 tires. Front will need replaced and rear have about 50%. (BFG all terrain T/A)
The A/C was converted to r134a and uses a Dodge compressor made for that refrigerant. Both the A/C & heating systems work well.
The interior is basic with no headliner or surrounding trim. It does have power locks and windows which work on 3 of the doors. Radio is a newer cd player and I put new speakers on the door panels and new 6*9 speakers behind rear seats. From the pictures, you will see a few cracks in the dash and there are some small holes from probably a cb or other controls. The driver seat area is rough but all other areas are good. It has tilt steering and intermitent wipers. The carpet is a charcoal grey and is not the original design. I have recently installed new door gaskets on all 4 doors. The truck can be a little noisy inside since there is no headliner or extra trim. I do have some Dynamat material that goes with the truck, I just never installed it. Also, the guages are Autometer and Sunpro and are set into the factory dash panel. There is a boost guage, trans temp guage and also a egt guage that have the sensors installed, but need to be hooked up. The truck was originally set up with dual fuel tanks and I retained that system. However, the aftermarket fuel guage calibration is slightly off so it stays on full for quite a while, then drops quickly. (I did run out of fuel a couple times before learning this.) Truck recently drove about 300 miles with no trouble at all. Email me through ebay if you have any questions.

Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady gives Chevy Colorado to Malcolm Butler [w/poll]
Tue, Feb 3 2015Winning the Super Bowl, we'd imagine, is pretty sweet. Winning the MVP award at the Super Bowl, even more so – for many reasons, among them that you get a brand new Chevy Colorado, packed full of, you know... technology and stuff. Of course this year's Most Valuable Player was none other than Tom Brady, the New England Patriots quaterback who was crowned Super Bowl MVP for the third time and lead the Pats to win the Super Bowl for the fourth time. He makes tens of millions every season, and Mrs. Brady (a.k.a. Gisele Bundchen) probably makes an extraordinarily pretty penny herself. So what does one of the most successful and wealthy players in NFL history need with a new pickup truck? Not a whole lot, apparently: the Boston Business Journal reports that he gave the truck to Malcolm Butler, the rookie cornerback who intercepted Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson's pass on the Patriots' one-yard line with only twenty seconds to go and sealed the victory for New England. Which strikes us as a fitting gesture, even if Brady did keep the MVP trophy for himself.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla P85D upgrades coming soon, lease a Chevy Volt for $149 a month
Wed, Dec 31 2014CarCharging has raised $6 million from shareholders and has restructured to save cash. The EV charging company plans to expand further in 2015 - with an eye toward achieving profitability - in part by investing in technology and "unlocking the value of our significant equipment inventory," says CarCharging CEO Michael D. Farkas. The group expects to reduce administrative costs by 40 percent, and has hired an interim Chief Financial Officer to help carry out its plans for growth. CarCharging raised the cash through offering convertible preferred stock to its shareholders, whom Farkas thanked "for their passion and patience." Read more in the press release below.
