I'm selling my custom 2000 Chevy S10 with the 4cyl 2.2l engine and 5 speed manual transmission. I just got the truck a couple months ago and I love it but I have to sell it for financial reasons otherwise i'd keep it. The truck was a project as most highly customized vehicles are so it needs some little things here and there to be 100% perfect but everything works and looks great as it sits. The truck has a high quality air bag suspension system that was professionally installed by the previous owner. The truck lays frame completely front and rear and looks awesome cruising down the road or layed out. This thing turns heads wherever it goes. It also has 18" chrome rims and the tires have about 60% tread left. Other custom work done to the truck includes a GMC Sonoma front end conversion with a more stylish bumper, grill, and headlights, a Chevy Blazer interior swap changing it from a bench seat to two buckets and a center console, an aftermarket 12 Gal fuel cell in the bed with a high flow inline fuel pump, a custom two tone red and black paint job with red metal flake throughout, relocated door handles to the bottom of the doors, a shaved gas door, a shaved tailgate handle, a black tonneau cover, smoked tail lights, and a Hurst T-handle shifter. The previous owner also did an electric radiator fan conversion which frees up some power and raises the gas mileage a bit. The aftermarket inline fuel pump makes the truck hard to start when it's cold so you'll have to crank it 3-5 times in the morning but it always starts. The suspension parts are all from Thorbecke Brothers, look them up they make the best parts for S10's. The front end has their tubular control arms and Airlift Dominator bags. The inner fender liners are cut to allow the truck to lay frame with 18" rims. The rear has their 5 link setup with frame notch, shocks, and Airlift Dominator bags for a high quality ride. There are 2 Viair 480C compressors hooked up to I think an 8 Gal tank in the bed. There are 8 valves for full FBSS control and a 10 switch control box in the cab that does FBSS, each corner independently, pancake, and see-saw. I believe the air line and valves are 1/2" as the truck raises and drops really fast. There are 3 air gauges in the a pillar on the drivers side for tank pressure and each bags pressure. The bad stuff is there are a couple dents, one on the passenger side of the bed above the wheel well and the passenger side of the tailgate is smashed in. The bed corners and edges of the roll pan in the back have a little cracked paint from the bed hitting the ground when dropping the truck. The gas gauge doesn't work because of the aftermarket fuel cell so I just use the trip meter when I fill up. The truck gets about 24 mpg. There is no emergency brake as the previous owner removed it because it hung below the frame and prevented the truck from laying completely. He also deleted the ABS module because it was located on the fender liner which needed to be cut in order to allow the tires to raise high enough to lay frame in the front. Other than that the truck runs and drives well. I just did a tune up (plugs and wires) and an oil change with Mobil 1 High Mileage synthetic as well as replaced the starter. The clutch grips well and the transmission shifts as it should, although the Hurst shifter is very tight and has a short throw so it takes some getting used to. The truck is overall a great summer toy and will get lots of attention wherever it goes. It's a blast to drive and with a little love it could be in perfect condition or just drive it as is and have fun.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
