No Reserve! 1999 Chevy S10 LS 4x4 4.3 Auto, extended cab, I am the original owner. 
Even though the history report says 2 owners, I leased it for 2 years then bought it.
157,753 miles. Hard start, idles ok but runs rough and usually stalls when trying 
to take off and not sure why. Seems like a misfire problem. It does need a tune up. 
The front distributor cap screw hole tab broke and so there is a nut and bolt holding 
it together. Was looking into buying a new distributor before this happened. Haven't driven 
it since the problem started in Sept. 2013. Haven't had the money to get it fixed so off 
it goes to someone that can. See short video of the engine running, camera ran out of memory. 
Go to youtube.com and paste b5uV-AZuPT4

Original engine,  was running great and was my daily driver before the
issue, no knocks. Engine has oil leak(s) but nothing major. AC compressor is gone. The transmission 
was replaced. I know the tranny leaks and from memory I think the tranny started slipping some 
between 2-3 shift, maybe low fluid.

Original paint, not perfect but shines nice 

No accidents or dents ever

Some minor dings and scratches

Would be a very easy repaint if desired

Drivers side has a long scratch in the door and goes into the extended cab area, key job I assume, 
I filled it and buffed it the best I could but not great at it and it is visible. The only mentionable 
surface rust on the body is a 3" area from about a small fold I had to make behind the passenger front 
wheel at the bottom corner of the fender when I bought larger tires 10 years ago and another smaller 
spot behind that. The tires on now are closer to stock size, All Terrain Firestones in great condition 
with 70% tread or so. Jack and spare tire never used. The bed liner has been on since new. Tailgate 
works perfect. Rear bumper has some good scratches in the plastic hitch area and some minor rust around 
the license plate lights. I took the "chrome" wheel well moldings off the day I bought the truck to prevent rust 
and threw them away. Plus I think it looks better without them. 4x4 works. Original exhaust, barely a leak.
 Original wheels. Original windshield, cracked across and needs replacing. The interior is in good condition,
 no major issues, driver seat has tiny wear out spot just starting, original working stereo/CD, all lights 
blown in stereo. Was smoked in until 2 years ago, doesn't really smell anymore. The fan speed switch only 
works on 3. The flip handles for both seats broke off, common problem can still flip seats with other lever. 
Have them in center console. Power windows, locks and mirrors work, heated mirrors work. Needs new brakes.
 Hit a rock a long time ago and put a little dent in the front of the drivers side frame rail and it bent the tow hook up a little. 
The fuel pump was replaced years ago and since then a full tank reads 7/8 full.

*The information provided is what I knew of in Sept. 2013. I cannot be responsible for any unknown issues that 
may have arisen since being off the road.
 Comes with 2 original keys and key fobs that need batteries. All photos and video were taken on 3/8/14. I only 
did a quick rinse before taking photos because it was too cold so the truck needs a good wash and wax. 
I have the title in my hand
No Warranty
Inspections welcome
This vehicle would need to be towed/shipped.

Question of the Day: What's the most irritating car name?

Wed, Mar 9 2016

You hear a lot about how the Chevrolet Nova was a sales flop in Mexico because "No va" means "it doesn't go" in Spanish; in fact, the Nova sold pretty well south of the border, and in any case most Spanish-speakers know that "Nova" means "new" in Latin and Portuguese. However, General Motors doesn't deserve to be let off the hook for bad car names, because the Oldsmobile Achieva— no doubt inspired by the excruciating "coffee achievers" ads of the 1980s— scrapes the biggest fingernails down the screechiest chalkboard in the US-market car-name world. That is, unless you think Daihatsu's incomprehensible choice of Charade was worse. Meanwhile, Japanese car buyers could get machines with cool names like Mazda Bongo Friendee or Honda Life Dunk. It's just not fair! So, what car name drives you the craziest? Related Video: Auto News Design/Style Chevrolet Honda Mazda Daihatsu Automotive History questions car names

Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why

Sun, 27 Jan 2013

Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
