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

Year:1999 Mileage:157753
Location:

Trumbull, Connecticut, United States

Trumbull, Connecticut, United States

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 Volt 'acceptable,' Nissan Leaf 'poor' in new IIHS safety tests

Thu, Jul 31 2014

Ford C-Max Hybrid also scored "acceptable" rating. With US Nissan Leaf sales up almost 30 percent during the first half of the year, the only thing that might be able to stop the battery-electric vehicle is a good, stiff barrier. Unfortunately, thing's aren't always pretty when that happens in the real world, according to new tests from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Things with the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in are a little bit rosier, though. The two plug-in vehicles were part of a batch of a dozen vehicles that just went through the IIHS's "small overlap" test, in which the driver's side front corner of the vehicle is crashed into a rigid barrier at 40 miles per hour. Out of the dozen, only the Mini Cooper Countryman was given a "good" rating. Five vehicles, including the Volt and the Ford C-Max Hybrid, were rated "acceptable," two were "marginal" and two, including the Leaf, were "poor." Plug-in vehicles are unique in the crash-test context because of their relatively large battery sizes. In the Volt's case, the driver had a "low risk" of injury, said the IIHS. But the Leaf's crash substantially pushed back the instrument panel and steering column, creating a scenario where the driver was "likely" to sustain leg injuries. The batteries in both the Leaf and the Volt passed safety tests specifically targeted at things like thermo and electrical properties and overall integrity. "Nissan is proud of the Leaf's 'Good' rating in all other IIHS tests, a 4-star NCAP rating from NHTSA and its IIHS Top Safety Pick rating in all previous years since the car's release," the company said in an e-mail sent to AutoblogGreen. "As for the performance of the 2014 Leaf in the 'small overlap frontal test,' Nissan will continue to review these and other results from the IIHS 'small overlap frontal test' as we seek opportunities for improvement." Check out the IIHS's press release and small car crash-test video footage below. Range of ratings: Small car ratings run the gamut in challenging small overlap front test The Mini Cooper Countryman is the only small car to earn a good rating among the latest group of 12 cars subjected to the Institute's small overlap front crash test. Two electric models and a hybrid also are in the mix, with varied results. The electric-powered Chevrolet Volt (with a gasoline engine "range extender") earns an acceptable rating, while its battery-electric rival, the Nissan Leaf, earns a poor rating.

Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.

Netflix to feature electric cars from GM and others in programming

Sun, Feb 5 2023

LOS ANGELES — Netflix has unveiled a new star for some of its upcoming programming: electric vehicles from General Motors and other automakers. The streaming service announced an agreement on Thursday to feature vehicles including the Chevrolet Bolt, the electric GMC Hummer pickup and the Cadillac Lyriq in TV series and films "where relevant." The companies will highlight the partnership in a commercial featuring Will Ferrell that will air during the Feb. 12 Super Bowl. Netflix and GM called the agreement "part of a commitment to a more sustainable future." Financial terms were not disclosed. Netflix said it will help creators "better understand how EVs can complement and enhance their stories." Shows that will feature GM's electric vehicles include "Love is Blind," "Queer Eye" and "Unstable." Netflix productions also will include electric vehicles made by other automakers, the company said.   Marketing/Advertising TV/Movies Chevrolet GM GMC Hummer
