1998 Chevrolet Astro Ls Extended Passenger Van 3-door 4.3l on 2040-cars
Torrington, Connecticut, United States
|
I'm selling my 1998 Chevy Astro AWD Van. I've had it for a year and it's been amazing in the snow (the studded snow tires help in addition to the AWD) in the Northeast but I have too many cars right now and need to clear out my driveway some. I bought it from the second owner (he had the vehicle since 36,000 miles) who used it for family trips and carrying a canoe on the roof rack. I've used it to haul kayaks, bicycles, and even a stand up jet ski with the seats removed. You can take the front seat out and let three passengers in the back have a TON or legroom, remove the rear seat to have a ton of cargo room and still carry five people, or leave both seats in and carry eight people. It's a very versatile vehicle. And because it bears repeating absolutely amazing in the snow.
But as with any 15 year old vehicle it's not perfect. For it's age the exterior is in good shape, some normal scratches and small dings around the outside. Some small sections of rust on the rear hatch, the driver's side foot well, and the sliding door foot well. Still very solid. Mechanically there are a couple items to note. The check engine light is on, if you are a CT resident the emissions test is current until 3/29/14. There is some pulsation from the front brakes and an occasional pull to either side during braking, it does not occur all the time leading me to believe a cleaning and lubrication of the caliper slides may be all that is needed. At some point in owning the vehicle the stock radio stopped working, it is included in the sale along with a mounting kit for an aftermarket radio. There is also a full factory service manual that will be included with the van (you can see it on the passenger seat in one of the pictures). The van is being sold as-is and is priced accordingly with it's age and condition. |

Corvette Stingray Shooting Brake under consideration by Callaway [w/poll]
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Callaway has released a few renderings of a design study for a shooting brake version of the C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The company says it wants to create a long-roof version of America's sports car to offer buyers more interior room and a vehicle with "unique style." The company says it will use structural carbon fiber for the new body bits, which suggests the conversion shouldn't add too much more weight to the Corvette. Along with a few mechanical tweaks, the Callaway Corvette Stingray AeroWagon could breeze past the 200 miles per hour barrier.
Provided that they get enough interest, Callaway estimates they will be able to effect the changes on the Chevrolet for around $15,000, and says the conversion work should be available through its network of dealers. You can check out the brief press release below for more information, or head over to the Callaway site to plunk down a deposit - but before you do, we want to know... do you find this C7 wagon interesting?

Next-gen GM SUVs caught wearing new boxy bodies [w/video]
Wed, 15 May 2013We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."
