La Grange, Illinois, United States

The La Grange Illinois (Cook County) Police Department is offering the following vehicle for sale/auction:

1991 White Chevrolet S10 Pickup Truck (4.3L V-6) with 101,375 miles.

The vehicle is a seized/forfeited vehicle and MUST be sold according to Illinois law: it MUST be sold in an auction-style setting such as eBay.  There is no Buy-It-Now option.  We will NOT accept any trades for this vehicle.  The vehicle is being sold AS IS and with no existing warranty.  ALL sales are FINAL and NO price adjustment will be given.  This vehicle will be sold to the highest bidder after the starting price has been satisfied.  There is no reserve on this vehicle.

The vehicle (again) has a mileage of 101,375 miles.  The vehicle was in inside storage for approximately three (3) years during the forfeiture court process.  The vehicle was brought to and parked just outside our police department approximately 3-4 months ago.  When driven to the police department, the vehicle started right up (upon jumping it with a battery pack) and the vehicle drove fine with no signs of any mechanical problems.  Upon starting the vehicle now (jumping it with a battery pack), the vehicle started, however, stops running after a minute or two.  We STRONGLY suggest that the winning bidder tow the vehicle from our lot-we cannot guarantee the vehicle will remain running.

The vehicle is 5 speed (manual/stick shift).  The vehicle has a coated bed liner measuring approximately 7 feet by 4.5 feet and is in fair to good condition (no major cracks).  The vehicle's tires appear to be in fair to good condition.  The turn signals, headlights, and interior roof lamp are all in working order.  The vehicle has a Delco AM/FM stereo/Cd player.  The stereo is in good working order, however, we did not try the CD player.  The vehicle does not have A/C, however the fan and heat are in good working order.

Notable Minor Damage/Scratches/Dents/Imperfections/Things That Don't Work Or Need Replacement:  The vehicle's body has several rust spots:  The passenger-side (P/S) running board has rust near the bottom, the driver's-side (D/S) running board has rust near the bottom, the P/S front wheel well has rust, the rear hitch/bumper has significant rust and won't support towing weight, and there are smaller rust spots throughout the outside of the vehicle (see photographs).  The outside body also has paint chipping about the vehicle as well as minor scratches throughout.  The hood has a small dent.  There is minor crash damage to the D/S front quarter/headlight (headlight held in with wire but DOES work).  The hood of the vehicle is painted gray and the rest of the vehicle is painted white.  The D/S door does not open-there is no damage, but the mechanism will need to be repaired.  The front P/S side-marker light is cracked.  The two D/S hubcaps (plastic) have very minor cracks/damage.  The two P/S hubcaps are off, but lying in the bed of the truck.  The vehicle has cloth bucket seating, however, there are two minor tears near the driver's-side.  The P/S window crank is loose, but works.  There is no roof liner cloth material inside the vehicle. The vehicle will need a new battery and a tune up due to being in storage and not running for the past three years.

DISCLAIMER:  The vehicle (again) is a seized/forfeited vehicle and MUST be sold according to Illinois law: it MUST be sold in an auction-style setting such as eBay.  There is no Buy-It-Now option.  We will NOT accept any trades for the vehicle.  The vehicle is being sold AS IS and with no existing warranty; neither express nor implied.  All sales are FINAL, NO returns will be accepted, and NO price adjustments will be given.  BUYER BEWARE:  Due to this being a seized/forfeited vehicle, we do not know a great deal about it's condition, it's history, prior damage, prior maintenance, etc.  Potential bidders are encouraged to view the vehicle in person prior to the bidding process, as there may be defects or undetected problems we are unaware of.  Potential bidders may have an independent inspection completed prior to the bidding process at their own expense.  The winning bidder is responsible for the pick up of the vehicle or making arrangements with a private shipping service at their own expense; we will NOT deliver the vehicle.  Pick up of the vehicle should be made within seven (7) days of the close of the auction.  Should you need additional time for the pick up, please contact us to make arrangements.  We have described the vehicle as completely and accurately as possible, however, we will NOT be responsible for undetected problems, incorrect specs, etc.

Should you have any questions or would like to view the vehicle in person, please contact me through eBay email, ask a question through the auction site, or telephone me at 708-579-2334 and follow the prompt. I am currently working 7:00am-3:00pm (CST). If I am unavailable at the time of your call, please leave me a voice mail and I will return your call as soon as possible. The winning bidder may pay in full upon pick up of the vehicle with either cash or a certified bank check only, at which time a Bill Of Sale and Clear Title will be provided. We also accept PayPal for payment as well. Good Luck!!!!

Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain

Sat, Aug 9 2014

Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.

Two More Recalls Push GM Total To 4.8 Million In A Month

Mon, Mar 31 2014

General Motors announced two more recalls late Friday, bringing to 4.8 million the number of cars, trucks and SUVs the automaker has called back for repairs in the past month. The string of recalls, topped by an ignition switch problem in compact cars now linked to 13 crash deaths, has embarrassed the company and sidetracked its new CEO, who started work just over two months ago. GM has admitted knowing about the switch problem a decade ago, yet it didn't recall any cars until February. The recall delay has brought two congressional investigations and probes by the Justice Department and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Late Friday night, GM announced it would recall 490,000 late-model pickup trucks and SUVs because transmission oil cooling lines weren't secured properly in their fittings. Transmission oil can leak from a fitting and hit hot surfaces, causing fires, the company said in a statement. GM said it knows of three fires and no injuries. The recall affects Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks from the 2014 model year, as well as 2015 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe SUVs and the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL SUVs. All have six-speed automatic transmissions. The Silverado is GM's top-selling vehicle and an important profit center for the company. The GMC Sierra also is among GM's top sellers. Dealers will inspect the transmission oil cooling line fittings and make sure they're securely seated, at no cost to owners. Also Friday night, GM announced the recall of 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars because the right front axle shaft can fracture and separate while being driven. The recall affects cars from the 2013 and 2014 model years equipped with 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engines. If a shaft fractures, the wheels would lose power without warning and the cars would coast to a stop. GM says it has warranty reports of several dozen shaft fractures. It is not aware of any crashes or injuries. Dealers will replace the shafts free of charge. The recall allows dealers to resume selling affected Cruzes. GM issued a stop sale order on the cars Thursday night. The recall also covers about 2,500 replacement shafts used to fix manual transmission Cruzes that were recalled last September. In all, GM has recalled 4.8 million vehicles since last month, two million more than the company sold last year in the U.S.
