1988 Chevy S-10 Pickup (ex Us Airforce Truck) on 2040-cars
South Elgin, Illinois, United States
|
Up for sale is my ex US airforce S-10 this truck has 43510 original miles on it most of its time was sitting on one of several airforce bases first on the east coast when new then sent to grissom AFB in central Indiana where picked up from. I then had to put a fuel pump in and had the fuel tank cleaned out of all the old stale gasoline added a new battery, door weather stripping, window felt and tracks, tires, carpet and heater core. The truck has a 2.5 liter four cylinder engine hooked up to a 700R4 overdrive trans the truck drives great its not a power plant but gets great fuel mileage and I wouldn't hesitate to drive this anywhere in the US. The color is the original airforce strata blue as seen in the pics the clear coat is gone on the hood and roof from sitting out in the sun for years the paint has many dings and small scratches there is a bit of rust on the cab corners and the corner of the DS door but no holes or rust through. Its pretty hard to find a truck like this in the Midwest and shipping a rust free one from the west coast is now well over a thousand dollars. Its a very reliable truck and the only reason its being sold is because I just purchased a full size classic chevy truck and have no room for it as for the price try to buy a truck now days with the low mileage and clean body this truck has in the Midwest you would be lucky to get one at three times the price if you are looking for a show truck or a truck to haul a five thousand pound boat and trailer this is not the truck you want if you want a truck you can drive anywhere economically and not worry about breaking down this is the perfect vehicle. I have hauled paver bricks and firewood with this truck and it handles the weight better than one would expect it to there is no cracked or broken glass anywhere on the truck. You can see the PS window crank is not on the truck in the pics the clip was lost when removiving the door panel for installing the window felt channel s it will be replaced before the truck sells. It also comes with the original matching fiberglass cap and two spare tires one window is out of the cap it was broken from a rock thrown from a snowblower this truck has been heavily undercoated sometime in its past it has a military spec 20 gallon gas tank and heavy duty suspension the truck is up for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction if it should sell locally any questions call me at eight four seven four six eight nine six seven six.

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy
Fri, 05 Apr 2013Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?
