1994 Ev, Electricar, Hughes, Electric Vehicle, Electrovehicle, Classic, Original on 2040-cars

1994 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck built in June of 1994 at the Shreveport LA plant.  I found a lot of reading on 1997 and 1998 S10 electricars, but not on a 1994, other than Hughes Aircraft was the original designer and it was changed to Electricar. (The Controller on this truck is stamped HUGHES)  I purchased the truck in Norman Oklahoma at an impound auction.  The truck is in fantastic shape and I bought it for body and interior parts.   The batteries were removed before I purchased it, so I have no idea what works and what does not.  The original books are still in the vehicle including the Driver Briefing Card, Driver's Log Book for Product Evaluation Program, Owners Manual and cassette tape,  manual for FM200 Floor Mount Inductive charger, and business cards from eV electrovehicle from Virginia Power in Richmond Virginia.   The placards, or stickers, on the truck are different than the ones normally seen on trucks of this era.  It also has a charging point in an opening on the front grill I have not seen on pictures of others.  The second plugin port is behind what usually would be the gas cap lid. Under the hood is a whole new world for my eyes, but I can tell no components appear to have been taken off.  Any questions about specifics that I wouldn't notice contact me and I will look and take pictures to send.  

The truck has a good clear Oklahoma title.  

You can tell the tires are all original including the spare which obviously has never been on the ground.  The bed has no dents in or dings inside the bed and again obiously was never used as a truck or to transport cargo.  Outside the bed has very light bend where the bed was taken off to get to the batteries.  The cab has several very small hail dents from living in Oklahoma.  Overall the body is exceptional.  The interior is cloth with no tears, the dash board has some cracks on top, but all in all it is also in exceptional condition.  

I believe this is a very rare truck that was used to proceed the building of the 1997 and 1998 models which didn't work out for GM.  I CUT MY RESERVE PRICE IN HALF TO SELL.

Bidders with Zero feedback like the buyer of this truck in the last auction have to contact me before bidding or I will reject the bid.  It cost time and money to Ebay and it is not fair to others when one can bid and not go through with the purchase.  The last auction the zero feedback bidder failed to respond to emails.  I have been on Ebay for over 14 years and this is the first time this has happened to me.  

I googled a government auction in Virginia in March of 2012 last month and found a 1997 S10 in the same condition sold for $7,000.00  My Reserve Price is a fraction of that price and even a lot lower than several bidders bid on my last auction.  I started to put it on Buy It Now, but I do like it being an auction instead.  

Any questions, please ask, my phone number is 405-238-5551. I am located 54 miles south of Oklahoma City and 73 miles north of the Texas state line above Dallas on Interstate 35.       

I reserve the right to cancel the auction on Zero or Low Feedback bidders if they do not contact before the end of the auction.  

 I added 3 more pictures with the bed on the truck.  I also found out yesterday the truck was at the University of Oklahoma on a Grant Program in the 90's.  After the Professor retired the University did not know what to do with the vehicle so it sat idle until they finally just wanted it removed to be out of the way.   I also received an email from an Ebayer telling me it is a USELECTRICAR and Yahoo has a website.       

 The pictures with the hood open, that is dirt and dust from many years of setting idle.  I did not want to wash or clean under the hood since I am not familiar with electrical parts.  It looks rusty, but it is not, that is dirt and dust. 

I cut my Reserve by more than half.
