V8 S10 Conversion Body Off 1982 on 2040-cars
Lawrenceville, Georgia, United States
|
Here is an extremely straight not a door ding absolutely show straight body with a professional paint job done frame off inside and out all door jambs under hood bed etc however it was frame offed about 10 years past then fell into some barn after engine threw rod. I bought it for way too much $ because of the condition of body and underneath, which is almost as impressive. zero rust none. The underside is clean as well. Anyway I had my mechanic who specializes in s10 rods and races an s10 Blazer do the install of basically a very nice running 350 which had been rebuilt out of a show cutlass who upgraded to 450 hp. Engine seems to be stock truck motor out of pre 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe or suburban with a 4 bbl and dual exhaust. the trans is a 700r4 which shifts very smooth and the rear end I'm guessing is 3:25 somewhere around there. Now with the 16" Camaro z28 rims it will spin the tires at will even at speed so the motor has too much power to do anything with without going posi and some type of traction aid. It is basically a driver and she is very dependable my son has driven it the past month daily since his car was broken. It is very well mannered if driven like Grandma or she will fly if desired. The gas mileage is decent with the 700r. I bought the car also because it had both heat which works well and a/c system complete. Most s10 conversions remove everything but this one is a step above. I was going to finish it and do everything but I have recently been given custody of a 2 yr old to go along with the 6 yr old so now I cannot use this truck and need ext cab. so before I paint it and it gets more expensive I'm putting her up for cheap. This truck could be extremely nice with very little elbow grease, plus you can drive it anywhere any distance right now. new alternator, new starter, new battery, brakes are excellent, exhaust is perfect, gas is clean and electric fuel pump works dependably. Best of all it does not get hot with the 2 electric fans and the special aluminum radiator stuff needing attention :1. seats need removed and new springs installed they are shot 2. there is water coming in on drivers side floor there is an easy fix on internet haven't got to it yet 3. speedocable either broke or disconnected it was working but not now 4. headliner is new but glue failed and needs reglued 5. never bothered to hook up radio |

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW cars to share i tech, Jordan to build solar EV charging network
Wed, Jan 14 2015Jordan is looking to promote EVs and build a solar charging network. The country is waiving import tariffs on electric cars, and is spending $120 million on solar chargers. It plans to build 3,000 charging stations, along with 30 MW of solar power. Some chargers will be powered by solar canopies, while others will get electricity from nearby solar farms. Jordan's solar plan should also help to lessen the amount of energy it needs to import from nearby countries. Read more from Navigant Research, or at Green Car Reports. BMW's mainstream cars will benefit from technology borrowed from the i3 and i8, according to BMW sales head Ian Robertson. In an interview with Automotive News, Robertson said that next-generation cars will use carbon fiber more extensively, and that more cars will get plug-in technology. He said that about half of i3 buyers opt for the range extender and added that it is incorrect to refer to a range-extended electric vehicle as a plug-in hybrid. Read more at Automotive News. The ethanol market should remain healthy despite falling oil prices. While cheap oil could drive down ethanol prices, demand still remains due to the federal biofuels standard. Additionally, ethanol producers may find it cheaper to ship their products as domestic oil production drops and railroad shipping opens up. Ethanol byproducts like distillers grains continue to sell, and foreign demand continues as other countries impose their own renewable fuel standards. Read more at Yahoo News. Via Motors will launch the production of an electric Chevrolet Silverado. The company will convert the pickups into range-extended EVs at its assembly line in Mexico, near GM's Silverado plant. Via has the capacity to produce 10,000 vehicles per year at its Mexico facility. Via Motors Chairman (and former GM Vice Chairman during the early days of the Chevrolet Volt project) Bob Lutz wants to help make EVs mainstream in America, and believes that requires electrifying pickups and SUVs.
