1995 Chevrolet K3500 for sale:

I bought this truck about 3 years ago and it sat for about a year before I got to it. It wasn't in great shape then but I needed something to pull a 5th wheel and it was affordable or so I thought.

Two years ago I put in a new long block engine, all new hoses, injection pump, lines, injectors, glow plugs, upgrade 130 GPM water pump and the upgrade duramax dual t-stat and assembly and fan, new alternator, new vac pump, sensors, turbo and so much more. In the last 8 months I have replaced the brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, lines and hoses, calipers, wheel cylinders, hubs, front axles, all ball joints, upper control arms, all tie rod ends, stabilizer strut, shocks, 4x4 shaft, and had the rear end gone through with yolk replaced. A few months ago I put on a different bed that I found in Georgia which was in mint condition and I had it painted by a paint shop. I had custom made battery cables as well as glow plug harness at time I put engine in. I have replaced the locks, dampers in the heat/cool system, all the actuators, the heating/cooling control center. I replaced all u-joints in the past 3 months and they replaced the rear bearings and seals also when they did the rear end. I had the transmission checked out and had them do a filter and flush at GM garage about a year ago. I also put on a 4" exhaust and a K&N air intake about a year ago. Front fenders I put on last year. Not the truck color as I was going to change the color when I restored the rest of it but didn't like that color when it was on. Has a blue ray starter on it and life time alt. paperwork in in glove box for warranties. Changed tires and wheels 4 months ago so in great shape. Truck comes with tool box and 5th wheel hitch as shown. RV does not come with it. Also has a new radiator 6 months ago.

I have replaced about everything on this truck that can be changed out except the tranny, power steering, air conditioner, and front dif. and I spared no expense doing it either. I was going to complete the restoration this winter when I was on layoff however I bought a new 5th wheel three months ago and pulled it from Florida to North Carolina and it didn't pull it very well. Really cut down speed on hills so I parked it in the RV park we often stay at for long terms and went back to hotels for the past few months. I left Penn last week to head back to NC and between Richmond VA and Raleigh it shut down like I turned the key off. I pulled over and started right back up, went another 80 miles and it did it again. First time in two years I got an SES light. Well, made it to Raleigh although it was dying about every 10 to 15 miles. It would start right back up so I changed the PMD when I got home, and then tested it and was the same. I pulled the SES Codes and told me it was either the CPS (crankshaft position sensor) or the IP (Injection Pump). I don't know what one it is, could be one or the other or both? I just don't know and since it wont pull my new RV, I am just going to sell it. I just don't have time to mess with it since it wont pull my RV and I have to buy a bigger truck so my plans to wrap it up this winter has ended. Now this pulled my 30' unit just fine for two years but my new unit is 38' and much heavier so, its just not big enough for that 5th wheel.

I have done by very best to describe this truck. I have babied it, gave it a ton of love, but its time we part! This truck starts immediately, have had no issues, I did put a block heater in it (the good one) for the block but have never used it. Has never fell below 30 degrees where I have been in the winter so never used it. I also put in new LED tail lights, new grill with smoke lights in it about a year ago. I put over 15 grand in this truck in past two years and have it listed locally at the rv park where I am parked so basically the first 5 grand takes it. I wont take less then 5 grand for it or I will part it out. The current engine in it has just over 70,000 miles on it and the long block alone was 5500.00 bare.

Please ask questions before bidding. I give no warranties or promises with this truck but that the above it complete and true. I had the oil cooler lines replaced a little while back along with the oil cooler and I did see a small drip recently so he may have nicked the oil line connector when he installed the new ones. Not sure as didn't climb under and just had an oil change so may have been from that. I have used the 4 x4 twice just to check to see if worked and it does. I don't have any reason to use the 4x4 or haven't anyway. Truck is located in Moncure NC which is just outside of Raleigh. I am traveling but will come back for a serious buyer. I have it hooked up to my RV right now in case park owner needs to move it. The AC works well and I put a new gas tank in it also and lines about 10 months ago too. I am sure there is something I have missed that I added to this truck as I have done so much to it. I love the truck except I just cant see putting more time and cash in it to have sitting around when it wont work for me.

Please done hesitate to ask any questions. If you don't mind to do some work here or there this would be a great truck. The interior is original and not perfect either but not too bad, just average for an old truck. Heck, cant be to much else to replace in the future as I replaced about all of it already. I have clear title ready to go. I will have to remove tags at time of sale as NC requires them to be returned.

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.

Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
