Okay so I’ve got this truck I’m selling;- it’s an ’89 S-10, 2.5 liter 4-cylinder 5-speed, short bed standard cab with 97,000 miles.  I bought it last year with a blown head gasket and some front end damage (bent bumper, hood, grill).  My Son and I did a valve job, bolted new metal on the front, replaced the radiator and battery and have been driving it ever since.  It runs very well, has good tires, brakes, clutch, glass, tracks nice-n-straight down the road, shifts good, doesn’t have any funny noises or vibrations and the check engine light is connected and functions as designed.   

With that said, it’s a 25 year old truck and although it has very low mileage it’s “been around”.   The paint is just okay; it’s not peeling or cracking, it’s just not “nice” nor would it be any better with wax probably?   It has a few rust spots (above the pass side rear wheel bottom of the pass-side door, and both rear cab corners),  but the doors and tailgate close good, and the glass seals good so my guess is it doesn’t have any hidden major rust underneath nor has it probably ever been wreck other than the front  sheet metal.  If I was to keep and use this truck as a daily driver, I’d charge the AC, replace the blower motor (squirrel cage doesn't spin), install new exhaust from the catalytic converter back (currently drops in front of the rear axle so it sounds like a “young Man’s truck” :), replace the windshield wiper blades, maybe some carpet over the rubber mat, one of those dash covers that Velcro on, a head liner? and for sure a new media player.  But if you need a truck to drive from point A to point B without any frills and minimal difficulty this would work fine for the low mileage, good fuel economy inexpensive truck you’ve been looking for to do just that

A $200 deposit is due within 48-hours of closing and balance is due within 7-days.  Paypal is preferred but not required and if you have less then a 97% rating or less then 10 transactions please contact me before bidding.

I’d like to sell before I get busy this summer so I have the truck listed both locally as well as on Ebay.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
