This is a 92 S-10 with a GM Ramjet 350 crate motor, 5 speed stick, Posi Rear, Air Ride Suspension, A/C, etc.... It is a previous show truck, that has a lot of money spent on it. Excuse the long description, but i want you to know what you are buying. Even if you were to just use the frame, suspension, and drive train, to make a street rod, it is worth the asking price. A lot of street rods are being built on S-10 chassis's. Some companies are building bodies to fit directly on a S-10 chassis. Such as Superior glass works. They are building 37-38 Chevy Cabriolet and Sedan delivery bodies that are a direct fit. Check out the superiorglassworks website. Also see the last picture.
I bought this truck in New Hampshire almost a year ago. My plan was to paint it a solid color and make it a cruise night, nice day driver vehicle. Time constraints and needing money for home improvements, meant I never got to it. This isn't my only project vehicle. I am selling the truck as I got it. I have all the New Hampshire paperwork for the truck. I never registered it in NY. I have a carfax for the truck. Yes the truck has a lot of miles on the carfax. 255,000 But the truck has been completely rebuilt. This truck was chosen because it was a clean, accident free, rust free, Texas truck. The truck went from Texas to New Hamshire in 2005. The GM ramjet 350 crate motor didn't come out until 2006. The truck hasn't had that many miles put on it since the drive train, motor, suspension, etc... was replaced. Over 90% of the mileage was put on it in Texas, when it was a stock truck. Engine: GM Ram Jet 350 Crate Motor listed for $5834.97 in the Summit Catalog. It puts out 350 hp at 5200 rpm and 400 ft/lbs torque at 3500 rpm. A Ramjet 350 service manual is included. Body: Rust free, dent free, except for the damage to the hood and roof from the hood flying up on previous owner. Shaved door handles. The poppers don't work with the remote. They probably need to be replaced. Because it was a Texas truck, the rockers and floors are spotless (see pictures) There are a few paint chips around the doors. Passenger side mirror is cracked. The back wall of the cab was modified to fit a sub woofer and amp. The front wall of the bed was cut out and re-welded in on a slant to clear the cab wall modifications. (see pics) The rear roll pan is welded in and the license plate drops down with an electric motor. The tailgate handle is shaved and flipped to the inside of the tailgate. ( I have a set of clean stock doors available at extra cost if you want them ) Audio: It has an Alpine CDA-9883 MP3/WMA/AAC receiver and CD player in the dash. It has two speakers in the kick panels. The back wall of the cab had two square holes cut in it. (see pics) Two metal boxes, were welded in, to house the amplifier and sub woofer. (The sub woofer was missing when I bought the truck.) The amplifier is an Alpine V/12. The antenna hole was shaved on the fender and the antenna is above the rear view mirror on the windshield. Exhaust: It has stainless exhaust from the headers back. (see pics) There are two pipes running from the headers to the cats. Then two cats running in to one large muffler. Then there are two pipes exiting the muffler than come out in front of the passenger side rear wheel. The headers are Headmans. They are uncoated, but are solid with just surface rust. Trans and Rear: It's a Borg Warner 5 speed. I'm not sure which exact model. The rear is a posi. The drive shaft spins about 3 1/2 rotations for one full rotation of the wheel. Which would work out to be a 3:50 ratio. That's just an approximation. Not 100% accurate. Interior: Nice shape. Tilt steering column. Headliner is good. Door panels good. Power windows. Bench seat good. Dash pad no cracks. It's a comfortable truck. I'm 6'5" and fit comfortably with the seat all the way back and the wheel tilted up. Wheels and Tires : 20 inch Boss wheels and 245/35 ZR20 95W Toyo Proxes 4 tires with good tread. Since I'm over 50 these wheels didn't appeal to me. I have a 17" set of American Racing Salt Flat rims and tires I was going to use. They are available at an extra cost. Suspension: A lot of money spent here. Complete suspension replacement with tubular front upper + lower control arms. Dropped spindles. 4 link rear suspension. It's a Ride Tech system. The front lower control arms are $600. Uppers are $400. Spindles $300. Four link rear suspension $1200. Shock wave shocks at least $700 a pair, depending on options. It looks like it has the $1000 analog 4 way air control system. The other systems available are more expensive. (I'm not 100% sure, this is the first air ride vehicle I have owned) There is a leak somewhere on the front suspension. Both front shocks leak down in about a 1/2 hour. i would think it would have to be a line or a valve, not a shock, because both sides go down, not one. The rear shocks stay up for days. If you wanted to run this truck with regular coil/leaf lowered suspension, you could sell all this off and recoup some of your investment. Check out the ridetech website and price these parts out. Also see the picture of the ridetech website. $5000 worth of parts. Glass: All glass is good. New windshield. Sliding back window. |

Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts
Fri, Jan 27 2017The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that the manager of a collision and restoration business in Virginia admitted he helped misappropriate and sell vehicles and parts from the State Department. Specifically, he sold 12 Chevrolet Suburbans, a Hummer, and $7,500 worth of tires and wheels. He pled guilty to charges to commit theft of government property and wire fraud. He will likely see 18 to 20 months in prison, a fine of $4,000 to $40,000, and has already agreed to pay restitution of $416,020 and asset forfeiture of the same amount. According to the Department of Justice, the body shop manager, James Ratcliffe, worked with the owner of the business and a State Department official, both unnamed, to obtain the property. It started with the wheels and tires, which were delivered and sold on two occasions, one in 2011 and another in 2012. The trucks came later, and were sold throughout 2011 and 2013. Ratcliffe and the shop owner kept most of the profits, and shared some of the leftovers with the government official. In addition to the vehicles that were sold, the government official also gave Ratcliffe a pair of Suburbans for his own personal use. The Department of Justice estimated the total value of the SUVs at $96,400. In total, the group misappropriated $512,420 worth of property. Related Video:
Nissan Leaf sales double Chevy Volt to close out winning 2014
Mon, Jan 5 2015To close out the year, sales of the two most-popular plug-in vehicles in the US kept going in the direction that they had been all year. The Chevy Volt dropped and the Nissan Leaf had another record month. Sound familiar? The Volt sold 1,490 units in December, a year-to-year drop of 37.7 percent. For all of 2014, Volt sales were down 18.6 percent to just 18,805 (from 23,094 in 2013). On the Nissan side of the ledger, the Leaf sold 3,102 units, up 22.7 percent from the 2,529 sold in December 2013. For the year, Nissan sold 30,200 Leafs, up 33.6 percent from the 22,610 sold in 2013. A few other things to note: For every month in 2014, the Leaf sold more than it did for the same month in 2013. For the Volt, this was only true for three months (April, May and July). Funnily enough, the Volt sold exactly 1,478 units in both March 2013 and 2014. The Volt's 2014 total was lower than both 2013 and 2012, while the Leaf had its best year ever. There were three months in 2014 when people bought at least twice as many Leafs than bought a Volt (September, November, December). The Leaf outsold the Volt every month in 2014. The closest gap was 215 units, in February. The biggest was 1,612, in December. As you've most likely seen, GM is still busy teasing the new Volt, which will make its official debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week. We'll have a more in-depth green car sales post up soon. <iframe embedded="true" "="" scrolling="no" src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oIuH75vaSHaaplD4x6gLsYjSsiN4oGmez1T63eaYdhY/pubhtml?widget=true&headers=false" height="430"> Nissan celebrates 30,000 leaf sales in 2014, best year ever for sales of any plug-in vehicle NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Jan. 5, 2015) – Nissan, the world leader in electric vehicle sales, shattered yet another sales record with 30,200 LEAF vehicles sold in 2014, which is the first time any plug-in has sold more than 30,000 units in a single year. "Now in its fifth model year, Nissan LEAF is more popular than ever and continues to bring new buyers to Nissan," said Brendan Jones, director, Nissan Electric Vehicle Sales and Infrastructure. "From the beginning our vision was to bring electric vehicles to the mass market in a practical and fun-to-drive package, which is what makes Nissan LEAF the best-selling electric car in the world." Last month, Nissan sold 3,102 all-electric LEAFs, up 22.7 percent from the prior year and a December record.
