95 Chevy S10 Bagged Airbags Air Ride Hydraulics Slammed Lowrider Custom on 2040-cars

Year:1995 Mileage:84226
Location:

United States

United States

This is a 1995 Chevy S10 customized with a '98 S10 front clip, 4 cylinder engine, manual transmission with under 85,000 miles, and full airbag suspension, but has sat in a garage for over a year with no work done to it since put away. The garage fees are getting expensive so I must sell. First the exterior..it has a '98 S10 nose. The inside fender supports have been cut for 20'' rims. It has shaved door handles with door poppers controlled with remote. The bed has been fully shaved including tailgate, gas cap, and has custom license plate bracket frenched into the tailgate. Molded in roll pan, and slim line brake lights. Outside.. has been primered brown, white flush mount Tonneau cover, hood is also in white. The body is in good condition. Has one small surface rust spot on bed and a small crack where the tailgate was welded cause the Tonneau cover was slamming down on it. (Crack is about 5 inches long, an easy fix, it just has to be welded.) 85% of the body work is done, just needs some touch ups here and there, and then will be ready for paint. The suspension..has airbags front and back, tubular control arms up front, spring pockets were cut to accommodate the bags. All that it needed is gussets welded in where cut for added strength. Rear has a road grader kit, 2 five gallon tanks and 2 air compressors. When stored one year ago, both compressors worked. Last week when I checked the truck, only one compressor was coming on. Not sure if it's a wiring issue or the compressor, worst case scenario, you would have to buy a new compressor for $120.00. It also needs a high amp relay for both compressors . Its ran by a CCE 10 switch controller. Interior..its all there but radio and is  in rough shape. Has power Envoy leather seats in good condition, but the power is not hooked up yet. Has a new exhaust and cold air intake. Check engine light comes on and off at times. This started happening after I added the cold air intake. Car runs and drives, just needs some work to be a complete truck.I have no time to work on the truck anymore, so it needs to go. Also, the left driver side brake light is cracked and needs to be re-wired. The original gas tank was cracked so I added a plastic gas tank that is in the bed. Like I said, there is alot of stuff that someone needs to finish. This truck is being sold as is. No returns, no warranty. A $300 non refundable deposit is due at end of auction. The rest to be paid in cash upon pick up. The truck is located in Glen cove, NY. Buyer must contact me to make arrangements for pick up. Any questions, please feel free to email me. Thanks and good luck bidding.

Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."

2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
