1994 Chevrolet Astro Cs Ext 8-passenger Van- 2 Owner- Very Low Mileage on 2040-cars

US $3,000.00
Year:1994 Mileage:99000 Color: has scratches
Location:

Shawnee, Kansas, United States

Shawnee, Kansas, United States

Two (2)-Owner. 99,000+ mileage. Dark red metallic paint.

In past two (2) years, we have spent over $2500 in general maintenance parts alone.  All done by a certified mechanic I have personally known for over 30 years.  It runs, handles & rides even better than when we purchased it.  Price just set to recover what we put into it in parts alone.  Our loss is your gain.

You will not find an Astro with half it's age in this GOOD of condition anywhere... or for this price.  First owner was a Fire Marshall's vehicle used for Fire Safety & Prevention Education.  Nobody hardly ever rode in the van but driver, & only educational materials were transported in the back.  No towing either (YES, it does have the Factory TOW package).  Never abused or trashed.  Interior is terrific, really.  Exterior has scratches, nicks, or dings common for it's age.  A brief list of what's been serviced and replaced in the past couple of years is as follows:

MECHANICAL
All brakes & rear drums, ball-joints, shocks (Hi-End Gabriels), cat-back exhaust all the way back, all front-end steering linkage from pitman arm outward, power steering pump, a/c compressor, distributor cap/rotor, spark plugs, transmission fluid & filter, fuel pump & sending unit (all-in-one), New battery last month!

COSMETIC
We never wrecked this vehicle.  However someone did push/scrape the left rear quarter/fenderwell while parked in a lot & they left w/o notifying us.  Appears they were parked next to us and, while backing out, turned their wheel too soon (see 2 pics).  NO seat tears, burns, wear spots, or sagging head liner (usually common for this age).  A few cracks in the dash. a couple rust spots on rear bumper from chipped chrome.  Had the luggage rack, wiper arms, and exterior window post areas all the way down both sides repainted (factory black) due to flaking/sun-fade.   Hood paint worn due to polishing.  Purchased an IDENTICAL driver's seat in order to have Armrests, Bolsters, & Reclining feature added for our comfort (and I mean exact material & color- OEM & like new).  Original seat comes with it if you'd like, and is in great condition as well.  Recent detail inside & out.  New OEM carpeted floor mats in 2nd & 3rd rows too.

You'll notice in the photos that we did NOT 'SLICK' this van up with a bunch of vinyl/interior and/or tire dressing to fool anybody about what they're bidding on (like some dealers do).  These pics are bare-bones after a quick wash.  What you see is what you get... just how we prefer too!

OTHER
Recently installed a new Pioneer CD/Aux stereo with Detachable Face, Remote, and Pioneer speakers.  We just bought a pristine condition 2002 Astro to replace this 1994 because we wanted a 'hi-top'.  The 2002 has the factory mag wheels that were the last year made with the same 15" size with a 5-bolt pattern (from 2003-05 they used 6-bolt, 16" wheels & tires).  We are keeping the aftermarket wheels in the pictures, so the mags from the 2002 will be installed upon sale before pickup or transport.  They are really nice & will update the appearance of this 1994 to look like a 2002.  An option for a buyer who doesn't care for nice looking wheels (?) is to request the factory steel wheels that came on this 1994 which include unused-since-new factory center wheel covers. The tires on those wheels are fair.  I can offer a price reduction to the buyer if they request this option.

AGAIN... this is a 1994.  The last year of production was 2005.  You won't find even a 2004 Astro that is in this good of condition mechanically or cosmetically anywhere near this price.  You won't be disappointed.  Even if you just want one for a work vehicle, this will do, as actual cargo models have all been beaten to death (checkout other listings)!  Just take out the two back seats & use it.  It does have privacy glass all around to help keep your tools & belongings from being in clear/open view.  All seats are included (no missing seats like some other listings).

SERIOUS inquiries ONLY.  If you're serious, then message me if you need additional pics or information, and I will respond ASAP.  NO TRADES.  CASH or LOCAL Cashier's Check ONLY.  Must have Paypal for non-refundable deposit required.

I just drove a 2002 from California to Kansas City.  That being said, I would drive THIS 1994 Chevy Astro across the entire country without hesitation!

TITLE is CLEAN & IN-HAND.

Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out

Thu, 29 Apr 2010

Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.

Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction

Sun, 17 Feb 2013

It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
