1994 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck built in June of 1994 at the Shreveport LA plant.  I found a lot of reading on 1997 and 1998 S10 electricars, but not on a 1994, other than Hughes Aircraft was the original designer and it was changed to Electricar. (The Controller on this truck is stamped HUGHES)  I purchased the truck in Norman Oklahoma at an impound auction.  The truck is in fantastic shape and I bought it for body and interior parts.   The batteries were removed before I purchased it, so I have no idea what works and what does not.  The original books are still in the vehicle including the Driver Briefing Card, Driver's Log Book for Product Evaluation Program, Owners Manual and cassette tape,  manual for FM200 Floor Mount Inductive charger, and business cards from eV electrovehicle from Virginia Power in Richmond Virginia.   The placards, or stickers, on the truck are different than the ones normally seen on trucks of this era.  It also has a charging point in an opening on the front grill I have not seen on pictures of others.  The second plugin port is behind what usually would be the gas cap lid. Under the hood is a whole new world for my eyes, but I can tell no components appear to have been taken off.  Any questions about specifics that I wouldn't notice contact me and I will look and take pictures to send.  

The truck has a good clear Oklahoma title.  

You can tell the tires are all original including the spare which obviously has never been on the ground.  The bed has no dents in or dings inside the bed and again obiously was never used as a truck or to transport cargo.  Outside the bed has very light bend where the bed was taken off to get to the batteries.  The cab has several very small hail dents from living in Oklahoma.  Overall the body is exceptional.  The interior is cloth with no tears, the dash board has some cracks on top, but all in all it is also in exceptional condition.  

I believe this is a very rare truck that was used to proceed the building of the 1997 and 1998 models which didn't work out for GM.  I CUT MY RESERVE PRICE IN HALF TO SELL.

Bidders with Zero feedback like the buyer of this truck in the last auction have to contact me before bidding or I will reject the bid.  It cost time and money to Ebay and it is not fair to others when one can bid and not go through with the purchase.  The last auction the zero feedback bidder failed to respond to emails.  I have been on Ebay for over 14 years and this is the first time this has happened to me.  

I googled a government auction in Virginia in March of 2012 last month and found a 1997 S10 in the same condition sold for $7,000.00  My Reserve Price is a fraction of that price and even a lot lower than several bidders bid on my last auction.  I started to put it on Buy It Now, but I do like it being an auction instead.  

Any questions, please ask, my phone number is 405-238-5551. I am located 54 miles south of Oklahoma City and 73 miles north of the Texas state line above Dallas on Interstate 35.       

I reserve the right to cancel the auction on Zero or Low Feedback bidders if they do not contact before the end of the auction.  


On Feb-27-14 at 07:35:07 PST, seller added the following information:

 I added 3 more pictures with the bed on the truck.  I also found out yesterday the truck was at the University of Oklahoma on a Grant Program in the 90's.  After the Professor retired the University did not know what to do with the vehicle so it sat idle until they finally just wanted it removed to be out of the way.   I also received an email from an Ebayer telling me it is a USELECTRICAR and Yahoo has a website.       


On Feb-27-14 at 07:40:26 PST, seller added the following information:

 The pictures with the hood open, that is dirt and dust from many years of setting idle.  I did not want to wash or clean under the hood since I am not familiar with electrical parts.  It looks rusty, but it is not, that is dirt and dust. 


On Mar-06-14 at 06:10:18 PST, seller added the following information:

I cut my Reserve by more than half.

GM Canada recalls 159,240 GMC and Chevy trucks for faulty defroster circuit

Fri, Jul 12 2019

General Motors is recalling more than 159,000 2014-2019 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks in Canada due to a potential fire risk. GM says the rear defroster circuit could overheat on trucks optioned with the power-sliding rear window. Thus far, there is no word on the recall's relation to U.S. vehicles. The recall, found by Automotive News, was posted to Transport Canada on June 28, 2019 with manufacturer recall No. N192220470. Included in the 159,240 vehicles are the 2014-2018 Silverado 1500, the 2015-2019 Silverado HD, the 2014-2018 Silverado LD, the 2014-2018 Sierra 1500, the 2015-2019 Sierra HD, and the 2014-2018 Sierra LD. The notice says the rear defroster circuit, specifically on trucks with the power-sliding rear window, could overheat. Because of its placement, this excess heat could cause melting, smoking, or possibly fire, in the worst case scenario. As of now, there is no official word when GM will initiate the recall and there is no official fix detailed just yet. GM suggests that owners, who will be notified by mail if their vehicles are affected, take their trucks to a dealer to remove the rear window defroster fuse as a stop-gap.  Automotive News contacted GM to find out if the problem is also found in trucks sold in the United States, but no definitive statement was made, as the investigation is reportedly ongoing. We will update this space if American vehicles are found to be included in the problem.

Forza Motorsport 6's new drivable Hot Wheels cars are the best

Tue, May 3 2016

Each month, Turn 10 Studios releases a new car pack for the latest installment of its Forza Motorsport video game. Sometimes that means less-than-exciting stuff coming to our Xbox Ones – BMW X6M, bleh – but this time our inner seven-year-old is beyond ecstatic. Two of the seven cars are based on actual Hot Wheels models. And. They're. Awesome. First we have the 2011 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker. Yes, there are flames on the side. And yes, there's a giant skull where the grille should be. This one came from the imagination of "Mr. Hot Wheels" Larry Wood, whose design was so popular it inspired an actual real-world creation. Like all good things in this world, it's powered by a small-block Chevy V8. Oh, and it has no roof. This will be a popular one among gamers. The other digitized Hot Wheels creation is a 2005 Ford Mustang. A modest vehicle, sure, but the toy designers have festooned this pony car with a wild paint scheme and the body mods to emphasize it. Originally developed to celebrate the 'Stang's 50th birthday, this Hot Wheels car trades Americana for wild Japanese style. There's just one functioning life-size version of this car in existence as well, but if you look hard, you might be able to find one of the 1:64 scale models that inspired it. Other highlights from this month's car pack include the latest Ford Focus RS – finally time to replace that NASCAR-V8-powered, all-wheel-drive 2009 Focus RS – the 2015 McLaren P1 GTR, the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, the aforementioned X6M, and Alain Prost's 1990 Ferrari 641 F1 car. The Hot Wheels Car Pack is available for download today.
