Two (2)-Owner. 99,000+ mileage. Dark red metallic paint.

In past two (2) years, we have spent over $2500 in general maintenance parts alone.  All done by a certified mechanic I have personally known for over 30 years.  It runs, handles & rides even better than when we purchased it.  Price just set to recover what we put into it in parts alone.  Our loss is your gain.

You will not find an Astro with half it's age in this GOOD of condition anywhere... or for this price.  First owner was a Fire Marshall's vehicle used for Fire Safety & Prevention Education.  Nobody hardly ever rode in the van but driver, & only educational materials were transported in the back.  No towing either (YES, it does have the Factory TOW package).  Never abused or trashed.  Interior is terrific, really.  Exterior has scratches, nicks, or dings common for it's age.  A brief list of what's been serviced and replaced in the past couple of years is as follows:

MECHANICAL
All brakes & rear drums, ball-joints, shocks (Hi-End Gabriels), cat-back exhaust all the way back, all front-end steering linkage from pitman arm outward, power steering pump, a/c compressor, distributor cap/rotor, spark plugs, transmission fluid & filter, fuel pump & sending unit (all-in-one), New battery last month!

COSMETIC
We never wrecked this vehicle.  However someone did push/scrape the left rear quarter/fenderwell while parked in a lot & they left w/o notifying us.  Appears they were parked next to us and, while backing out, turned their wheel too soon (see 2 pics).  NO seat tears, burns, wear spots, or sagging head liner (usually common for this age).  A few cracks in the dash. a couple rust spots on rear bumper from chipped chrome.  Had the luggage rack, wiper arms, and exterior window post areas all the way down both sides repainted (factory black) due to flaking/sun-fade.   Hood paint worn due to polishing.  Purchased an IDENTICAL driver's seat in order to have Armrests, Bolsters, & Reclining feature added for our comfort (and I mean exact material & color- OEM & like new).  Original seat comes with it if you'd like, and is in great condition as well.  Recent detail inside & out.  New OEM carpeted floor mats in 2nd & 3rd rows too.

You'll notice in the photos that we did NOT 'SLICK' this van up with a bunch of vinyl/interior and/or tire dressing to fool anybody about what they're bidding on (like some dealers do).  These pics are bare-bones after a quick wash.  What you see is what you get... just how we prefer too!

OTHER
Recently installed a new Pioneer CD/Aux stereo with Detachable Face, Remote, and Pioneer speakers.  We just bought a pristine condition 2002 Astro to replace this 1994 because we wanted a 'hi-top'.  The 2002 has the factory mag wheels that were the last year made with the same 15" size with a 5-bolt pattern (from 2003-05 they used 6-bolt, 16" wheels & tires).  We are keeping the aftermarket wheels in the pictures, so the mags from the 2002 will be installed upon sale before pickup or transport.  They are really nice & will update the appearance of this 1994 to look like a 2002.  An option for a buyer who doesn't care for nice looking wheels (?) is to request the factory steel wheels that came on this 1994 which include unused-since-new factory center wheel covers. The tires on those wheels are fair.  I can offer a price reduction to the buyer if they request this option.

AGAIN... this is a 1994.  The last year of production was 2005.  You won't find even a 2004 Astro that is in this good of condition mechanically or cosmetically anywhere near this price.  You won't be disappointed.  Even if you just want one for a work vehicle, this will do, as actual cargo models have all been beaten to death (checkout other listings)!  Just take out the two back seats & use it.  It does have privacy glass all around to help keep your tools & belongings from being in clear/open view.  All seats are included (no missing seats like some other listings).

SERIOUS inquiries ONLY.  If you're serious, then message me if you need additional pics or information, and I will respond ASAP.  NO TRADES.  CASH or LOCAL Cashier's Check ONLY.  Must have Paypal for non-refundable deposit required.

I just drove a 2002 from California to Kansas City.  That being said, I would drive THIS 1994 Chevy Astro across the entire country without hesitation!

TITLE is CLEAN & IN-HAND.

Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years

Wed, Jun 25 2014

A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
