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. |

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday
Tue, 11 Dec 2012There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.
