1987 Chevy S-10 Pickup Hot Rod 350 Restomod Easy Project, No Guess Work !! Nr on 2040-cars
West Palm Beach, Florida, United States
1987 Chevy S10 V8 Conversion NO RESERVE ! It has a 350 V8 and a Turbo 350 Trans. Great Father/Son Project or Weekend Wrench Guy.....Cheap Fun...No Reserve !
This was a running and driving truck. I have had all different cars, some big buck ones but this car was a blast...Just Cool This thing was a rocket...... (Some of the best fun I had since I was a kid) "LIKE THE OLD DAYS" without the worries of a 6,000 paint job or a frame off restoration... About 5 months ago the engine broke. I have no idea what happened, I went to start it one day and it would not crank right, Then the oil came out of the breather as I was cranking it and then it wouldn't even do that. So I think its safe to say its (Broke Bad). I have had zero time to fix it. Thought I would thats why I kept it this long (but it isn't happening) time to sell :( The rest of it I will try to describe as best as I can.... The Good news: The V8 Conversion is already done and been tested. This truck is fast and mean when running, its got the sick flowmaster tone and the turbo 350 shifted great. I kept the stock serpentine system. The blinkers work, the power steering works, I never tested the heat (FLA) but I pretty sure it works too. ( Its just a swap over or fix to get this baby rolling again). Carb,Cam, Headers, alum. radiator, electric fans, full flowmaster exhaust all the way to the back, Full Autometer gauges (and they all work including gas gauge and speedo are all hooked up already) Interior is pretty nice, the little fold out seats are cool and mint. Custom Dash plus all covers under hood etc. and I am sure I forgot something. This truck is very soild and is not rotted out or nothing. This truck drives nice and tight/ there were no crazy rattles and goes straight as an arrow. All the nickel and dime stuff that you will need to start from scratch on a base project........$$ The Bad News: (Besides the internals in the engine) The clearcoat is peeling most on the hood and roof. Picture This ( Hot Rod Black on Hood Roof and both front fenders for a paint layout and leave it from the doors back blue.) or something cool like that......That was my plan... Some little dents, the worst is the top of front fender (pass side) and the back driver side corner and driver tail light got cracked. (backed the boat into it.. ouch), but I have a good set of stockers that come with it). There is a tear in the driver seat base. The front bumper is tacked to the frame rails because somebody at one point damaged the tips where it connects (Bumper looks Ok) (SEE PIC) The radio is not connected only because I never did the final cover on the custom console. The a/c is there, it just needs a couple of parts to get that working too. I had z28 camaro wheels on it (Sorry their on my other car now) So I put the stock wheels back on it to get it around. (SLEEPER?) If you decide to keep these on here, you will need tires. Yes, this truck needs some stuff but it is an easy project without all the guess work, (Just the fun we knew on these NO BRAINER BULIDS) and I hope some of the younger guys are still getting into this "Great Hobby" as well. Plus save some money, LOTS OF VALUE IN PARTS HERE and have some fun in the process. Its not a 30 grand car.....Fix the motor/ Slap on some Primer and have a blast without the big bucks that never get done anyway.... Its one of those cars...( IS THAT NOT WHAT THIS IS ALL SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT ANYWAY?) This auction is budget minded for someone who really wants it and does not have a lot to spend, that wants something thats to cool and complete to part out...... (The price is what the metals worth) NO RESERVE.......... If you are coming to get it or have it picked up I will of course help the driver get it loaded on the hauler anyway I can. It will need to be picked up in Port St. Lucie FLA. (about 45mins from West Palm Beach) .........Thanks !! The Item is described to the best of my knowledge and is used and therefore is sold as is and I have the right to end the auction early due to local sale. Item will not ship until full payment is clear. |

2018 Ford Expedition vs other big SUVs: How it compares on paper
Fri, Nov 10 2017With our Alex Kierstein rightly impressed in his first-drive review of the new 2018 Ford Expedition, we decided to dig a little deeper into the numbers, and we came up with the spreadsheet below to highlight how the new 2018 Expedition compares on paper to its main full-size SUV competitors: the 2018 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban (and therefore the 2018 GMC Yukon), 2018 Toyota Sequoia and 2018 Nissan Armada. We also threw in the new, even bigger 2018 Chevrolet Traverse since, as you'll see, its massive dimensions should put it on the radar for anyone who needs loads of passenger and cargo space but doesn't care as much about towing. A few notes about the chart above. First, the 6.2-liter V8 that's included with the new-for-2018 Tahoe RST trim level is the standard engine on the GMC Yukon Denali. You can apply most of the Tahoe's numbers to the entire Yukon and Yukon XL lineup. Second, though we highlighted categories where the Traverse led, we also highlighted the runner-up full-size SUV, since this was ultimately about that segment. Traverse numbers are broadly applicable to the new Buick Enclave.

Weekly Recap: Chevy and Alfa plot comeback strategies
Sat, Jun 27 2015Chevrolet and Alfa Romeo were two of the 20th Century's most iconic automotive brands. Chevy embodied America's post-war power and confidence. Alfa was the definition of the stylish Italian sports car. They reached halcyon heights in the 1950s and '60s, before declining precipitously amid new competition, changing consumer tastes, and uneven corporate management. Both say 2015 is the start of something better, and this week Chevy and Alfa laid out ambitious plans and showcased new cars that they hope will make them more relevant this year, and in the coming years. Each brand sits at its own crossroads, and their paths forward are as different as the Chevy Cruze and the Alfa Romeo Giulia. Chevy is still a sales beast, as evidenced by its volume of 4.8 million vehicles sold around the world last year. Chevy executives are fond of saying one of their cars is sold every seven seconds, which illustrates the strength and reach of a car brand that is the fourth largest in the world. "Make no mistake about it, we are a brand for the people," said General Motors North America president Alan Batey. But he wants consumers to want to buy a Chevy for its design and technology, not simply because it's affordable. That starts with all Chevys now featuring a distinctive a family look, with sporty cues from the Corvette or strong lines that riff on the Silverado pickup. "We want people to fall in lust with our cars," said Mike Pevovar, executive design director for Chevy passenger cars. "That initial emotional attraction has to be right on the exterior, and that's where form comes into play." Chevy is also loading up its cars, like the freshly unveiled 2016 Chevy Cruze, with technology to appeal to a younger crowd that prizes connectivity. The Cruze will offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with its MyLink infotainment system, and OnStar with 4G LTE and wifi. Seeking out younger buyers is also sound business practice: Millennials now outnumber Baby Boomers as the largest single age group in the United States. Younger buyers also can improve a brand's image, which is another area where Chevy would like to improve. Chevy ranks 82nd on Interbrand's Best Global Brand's list, behind 11 other automakers. Apple is No. 1. "We need our own variation of the Genius Bar," Batey said. 2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia View 3 Photos Meanwhile, Alfa is in different shape.
Nissan sells 3,117 Leaf EVs in May, climbs over 3,000 for first time ever
Tue, Jun 3 2014Chalk up a big win for the Nissan Leaf. In May, the world's most popular electric vehicle sold a record 3,117 units, the first time any pure electric vehicle has sold over 3,000 units in a month in the US (unless Tesla managed that feat but rolled the number into a quarterly report). This marks the 15th month in a row of record Leaf sales and the seventh where the Leaf was the top EV seller in the US. The challenge bar is set for someone to step up to compete with this all-electric wunderkind. Chevrolet did sell over 3,000 Volts once, in August 2013. The Leaf's one long-standing competitor, of a sort, is the Chevy Volt, which used to regularly outsell the Leaf but moved only 1,684 units in May. That's still an increase of 4.8 percent over 2013 but is part of a 4.5 percent decline in year-to-date Volt sales for 2014 compared to last year. The last time the Volt outsold the Leaf was October 2013. Chevrolet did sell over 3,000 Volts once, when it moved 3,351 in August 2013. Let's take another look at those 3,117 Leafs sold last month. They represent a 45.8 percent increase over May 2013, when 2,138 Leaf EVs were sold, so someone is doing something right in Japan and Tennessee. So far, Leaf sales in the US are up 36.4 percent year-to-date, to 10,389 EVs. That's just under half of the 2013 total, and it was accomplished in five months. In 2013, Nissan sold a total of 22,610 Leafs. Anyone want to hazard a guess where the total will be at the end of the year? As always, we'll have our detailed monthly sales write-up including other plug-in vehicles as well as hybrids and diesel car, up soon. For now, though, the big news is big Leaf sales. Read Nissan's press release below. Nissan Group reports May 2014 U.S. sales May 2014 May 2013 % Change Nissan Group Total sales (units) 135,934 114,457 +18.8 Nissan Division May sales 125,558 106,558 +17.8 Infiniti May sales* 10,376 7,899 +31.4 NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Nissan Group today announced total U.S. sales for May 2014 of 135,934 units, an increase of 18.8 percent over the prior year and a May record. Nissan highlights: Nissan Division set a May record at 125,558 sales in the month, an increase of 17.8 percent. This marks a monthly record for Nissan division in 14 of the last 15 months. May was the best-ever month for Nissan LEAF with 3,117 sales, an increase of 45.8 percent over the prior year. In May, LEAF passed 50,000 total U.S. sales since launch, further establishing it as the leader among electric vehicles.
