1989 Chevrolet S10 Air Ride V8 350 700r4 Brake & Chassis Upgrades Protouring on 2040-cars
Abingdon, Maryland, United States
|
1989 Chevy S10 with Throttle Body EFI SBC 350, 700R4 trans and locking 10 bolt rear. Truck was built with good parts to provide a stout chassis to be a reliable, drive anywhere vehicle. The front suspension has Ride Tech tubular upper and lower control arms. Firestone 2500lb air bags. All of the tie rods and steering parts are new Moog brand parts. Front sway bar is ZQ8 S-10. Front brakes are 98-03 Blazer new dual piston calipers with drilled and slotted rotors, braided stainless brake hoses, mounted onto Bell Tech 2102 drop spindles with Moog unit bearings. Rear has new parking brake cables, new brake shoes, hardware and drums. The suspension in the rear has Ride Tech air bar set up. The rear frame has not been c-notched yet and has one area of rust repair where the notch will go. The Air supply system has two Viair 480 compressors and an 8 gallon tank where the spare tire belongs and analog controls from the glove box. The Truck stops incredible with better brakes and the HydroBooster from a Chevy Astro van. The steering shaft is a from a Jeep Cherokee and is substantially better with improved feel and response than the GM rag joint shaft. The engine has a Edelbrock 4bbl crab intake and a TBI adapter plate and was intended to be switched to carburetor it uses Hedman headers and is a otherwise stock later model SBC 350. Cooling is through a stock 4.3 radiator with dual Flex-a-lite fans. There's also a new Optima yellow top battery. The transmission is a 700R4 with a shift kit. It is mounted into the frame with a G Force transmission cross member that allows for the true dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. Everything under the truck is tucked above the frame rails. The wheels are old school Eagle Alloy minitruckin' wheels 17x8 with 40 series tires. Inside is very stock and some of it needs to be redone (dash has two cracks and needs new carpet) it has a new Grant steering wheel and a freshly upholstered Leather/Swede stock bench seat, and headliner. The body has good paint and is BMW Laguna Seca Blue. It is not a ISCA show paint job, but its far, far better than a quick Maaco job. The only custom work to the body is the shaved front bumper bolts, fuel door, and antenna. I've owned the truck for about 4 years and have driven it as far as 300 miles one way to travel to car shows. It averages about 22 mpg on the highway at 70 mph. There is one thing the new owner must do, mount a permanent fuel tank. The stock fuel tank is nested in the bed for right now but it is not a good safe place for it. The inside of the bed and the firewall/inner fenders are not paint color matched. The vehicle is currently in winter storage so the pictures are not 100% up to date. Not shown in the pictures are the door panels, and some other details. I also have Corvette C5 calipers and some other parts that can go with it if the price is high enough. Please email me with any and all questions. |

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
