1995 Chevrolet K2500 Suburban Lt Sport Utility 4-door 6.5l on 2040-cars
Richfield, Wisconsin, United States
|
This well used 1995 2500 Diesel Suburban starts and runs well. It handles like a dream in deep snow is and incredibly comfortable on long trips. I bought this in 2008 with about 237,000 miles and have driven it in a limited capacity, but regularly, since. While the body is in poor condition, the mechanicals on this vehicle are solid. I would not hesitate to drive this SUV any distance. For the last five years, we have used it exclusively for trips longer than 100 miles and recreational travel (biking/kayaking) as our other car is small and electric. Tires are in very good condition - spare is included.
Air conditioning/heat works perfectly. Two zone system allow passengers in the back to control their own AC/heat. 4WD works perfectly. As soon as I took ownership of the Suburban I took care of two big ticket fixes: Transmission was rebuilt by professional local shop (Automatic Transmission Design, Inc.). Injector Pump replaced with professionally rebuilt IP and installed by local garage specializing in diesel repair (Richfield Auto). If bought locally, the starter and alternator have have replaced by lifetime warranted pieces. Most recently, ABS sensors replaced on front brakes and brake system inspection completed. The brakes have plenty of life left on them. I also had a replacement exhaust custom fabricated for this SUV as it was tough to find a replacement system. They took the exhaust back from after the headers all the way to the tailpipe. I detailed some of the cosmetic defects above, but I will try to list as many as I can remember here:
Mechanical issues I am aware of:
Now for the fun! I converted this vehicle to WVO using a professionally designed Greasecar System. This system involved a second 40 gallon tank specifically for WVO, and a two fuel system under the hood. Basically, you can run on diesel, then when the vehicle has heated to a certain temperature, you switch it over to free waste vegetable oil. Before you finish your trip you switch back to diesel and you are good to go. We have saved $1000's of dollars on diesel fuel using this system, but the hobby is at an end for us. As such, we are also including a WVO starter kit - everything you will need to filter and run WVO in this system. (Even a little oil if you want it.) You will need a trailer to get this starter kit to your home. The tank on the truck currently is about 1/2 full with clean WVO. I run the system periodically to keep it working properly. With this WVO starter kit I am offering
Note: You do not need to run WVO in this vehicle. You could leave the system in place and run only on diesel if you wish with no harm to the truck. You could also remove the system fairly simply (if you have a rudimentary understanding of diesel engines). It would take me about one hour to restore (not offering to do it, just giving an idea of the complexity). You could also continue running this truck on WVO if you wish. It is a relatively hassle free way to drive for free. As with any 20 year old vehicle, this is being sold AS IS, WHERE IS. You must arrange for shipping/pickup and no warranty is offered or implied. I have attempted to describe this vehicle as completely as I can, but if there are issues with the vehicle not covered in the above description, I am not liable for them. This is a No Reserve auction. If you bid on this, you may win it. Please be prepared to pay for this and arrange shipping or pick up. I am unable to deliver this vehicle for you. If you want WVO system, you will need some type of trailer as equipment will not all fit in the Suburban. After your winning bid: I would like $500 within 48 hours of close. Paypal only please. The balance upon pickup/delivery when I will provide you with the clear title. Balance must be in cash, cashier's check verified during banking hours, Paypal or escrow.com. If shipping, I will not allow pickup until I have verified funds. Any questions at all, please contact me through Ebay and I will respond asap. Thank you, Eric |

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.
Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]
Sun, 03 Feb 2013The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
