Exceptionally Clean Western Car For Sale! on 2040-cars
Austin, Minnesota, United States
Up for sale is an exceptionally clean 1985 Chevrolet Caprice Classic 4dr sedan. It is a solid, rust free western car with only 96K miles. It is mechanically sound and can be driven anywhere in the country. It comes well equipped with A/C, Pwr windows, seats and locks, Pwr trunk opener , cruise control, tilt steering and an am/fm stereo radio w/cassette. It has new paint on a rust free body. It has new NOS body side moldings, grille, headlight bezels, rocker moldings and wheel well moldings. The interior ( seats, door panels, carpet and dash pad ) are either brand new or are like new. The front tires are new and the backs are low mileage. The trunk floor is rust free and still has the factory carpet on it. The vinyl top is perfect and would pass for brand new. The engine compartment is very clean and the car runs great. It gets about 25 mpg. The only negatives about the car is that the headliner has slipped and should be replaced. It does not , however, hang on passengers. The other negative is that the A/C needs a recharge. It works well, but just isn't very cold. I'm selling the car because I can no longer afford the storage.The winner of the auction will be very impressed with this car. 1-507-437-8416 with questions. The vehicle history report mentions one accident. Someone backed into the grille and took off. The damage was repaired with a new GM grille.

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For 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!"
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.

There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
