Blazer Chalet Camper On 1985 Chevy Blazer Cucv Diesel on 2040-cars
Oregon, Wisconsin, United States
Friends,
This is the nicest vehicle I've ever owned. Unfortunately, it's not so practical for toting around kids in car seats, so it's time for me to send it on to its next happy owner. I bought the Chalet camper shell on it's original factory chassis about four years ago. That chassis was tired, so about 2 years ago I bought the current chassis, a former Air Force CUCV. The CUCV had been upgraded with power leather seats, a CD stereo, new carpet, headliner and dash pad by its previous owner. I swapped the camper on and have been using it as my daily driver ever since. As an ASE master tech, I like to keep my stuff nice. In the time that I've owned the chassis, the following work has been performed: New master cylinder New front brake pads New rear shocks New steering stabilizer Four new balljoints New steering knuckle greaseable universal joints, seals, wheel bearings repacked New rear driveshaft greaseable universal joints New power steering return line New engine oil cooler lines New radiator New thermostat New mufflers and tailpipes New dual group 31 batteries New alternator New Belts New Optima deep cycle camper battery New glow plugs New glow plug relay Transmission overhauled by professional trans rebuilder New flexplate New Trailer hitch and pigtail New Potable water pump in the camper Probably more that I'm not able to think of. Receipts available upon request. Additionally, I've added a small inverter to run the installed television and a large inverter to run the APU air conditioning and electric heat (10,000 BTU A/C, 14,000 BTU Heat). The heat and A/C can also run off of shoreline power when it is available, so there is no need to run the engine to air condition the camper. This inverter acts as a charger for the starting batteries when plugged into the shoreline. The Chalet has a built in charger for the deep cycle battery. Because I live in the frozen tundra, I've also added battery heaters, an engine oil heater and an engine coolant heater. The truck also comes with a custom fabricated cold weather grill cover and a warm weather bug screen. The truck includes a Margaritaville tailgating grill, which was gutless from the factory, so I've upgraded it with a variable pressure propane regulator that can make it roar like a jet engine when you really need to cook. Because this chassis is near mint I've also applied POR 15 to the bottom of the truck to prevent rusting. In short, I really hate to see this one go, but it's not practical for me any more. As always, my walk away guarantee applies - if you win the auction and the vehicle is not exactly as I've described it, you walk away - no questions asked. Please feel free to call me with any questions. Randy (608) 209-7706 |

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.
Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.
