1969 Chevy S10 Van With 7,700 Original Miles! on 2040-cars

Year:1969 Mileage:7700
Location:

Evanston, Illinois, United States

 1969 Chevy S10 Van. 7,700 miles. From small volunteer fire department in Marion, North Dakota. Delivered new to them from local dealer in 1969. Have original protecto-plate, owner's manuals, and other paperwork including recent work done. I purchased this directly from them six or seven years ago and drove it very little. Put a new exhaust, plug wires, cap and rotor, plugs, and changed all the fluids. Still has the original tires on it, would replace when purchased because they are definitely "maypops". Clear Illinois title. This van runs and drives like new. It has small dings and dents, and the original paint is showing some wear. It does wear awesome Patina and I wouldn't do a thing to it unless I wanted to make it look brand new and use it as it was intended. It has the small bench seat from an ambulance company in Chicago, and two stretchers mounted on the inside. Has original spare and EVERYTHING works including two spotlights on the roof. I purchased van to haul motor scooters around and just never ended up using it. It's very cool, very unusual and rare, and in wonderful shape. And, it's a CHEVY!

3 on the tree transmission, shifts fine.

Manual brakes, gone through, stop great.

Original interior, in excellent condition.

ALL gauges work great.

Runs perfectly and is surprisingly very fast.


Needs: Handle for one of the window cranks (will supply)

new tires if transported over 100 miles

a new owner.


Please only bid if you are serious. I do not accept bids from folks with less than a 5 score, and you'll have to contact me if you are in that category. ASK if you have any questions and do NOT bid if you don't have the funds to pay at the close of the auction. Payment by certified check or cash only; vehicle will be released when funds have cleared. This is one of a kind, the miles are totally original, and it would be a great candidate for a show van or just to drive for years "as is." No warranty expressed or implied, car is being sold "as is" and "where is". I will help arrange transport through an outside carrier if that's what the buyer wants. No disappointments with this van.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
