1999 Chevy S10 Ls 4x4 4.3 V6 Extended Cab Black No Reserve! on 2040-cars

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.

Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.

OnStar to offer 90-day driving assessment, possible insurance discount

Wed, Jan 7 2015

General Motors has announced a brace of new features for OnStar, two of which could help you save money assuming you're willing to sign over some (more) personal details. The first is a driving assessment program in which OnStar takes note of certain driving parameters for 90 days, then provides the driver feedback on their driving, both individually and when compared to other drivers in the program, as well as driving tips. Think of it as OnStar's ICE version of the Nissan Leaf's CARWING feature that compares how efficient your electric driving is compared to other BEV drivers. In this case, though, certain drivers will have the chance to share their assessment with Progressive Insurance, and if the numbers are right they might get a "driving-based" discount from the insurance company. The assessment program is voluntary, and requires opting in. It will be available this summer on all new GM cars and some GM vehicles back to 2013. In case this sounds like Big Brother, let's not forget that Big Brother is already here and moved in so long ago that he's a member of the Kiwanis club and is hosting neighborhood block parties. Progressive already has a million enrollees in a program called Snapshot that tracks OBD II data to offer usage-based insurance to provide annual pricing based on how much you drive your car, with discounts of up to 30 percent. The OnStar effort is just another way to do that. The second feature is proximity offers through AtYourService, which notifies drivers to deals and information on their driving route and provides coupons from RetailMeNot and Entertainment Book. Beyond that, a deal with Priceline will let OnStar agents book hotels for you starting this year, there's a tie-in with Dunkin' Donuts, too, but we're fuzzy on those benefits, and third new feature lets Chevrolet owners know when certain parts need replacing.
