This is a very rare opportunity to own, what really is an almost brand new 14 year old pickup in MINT condition. The truck was bought new in Durham, North Carolina by a collector who had two other S-10 pickups with even lower mileage than this one. All his vehicles were kept in doors and rarely driven. He was good friends with the owner of the local Chevy dealership and when he passed away the dealership purchased the trucks from him and sold them to the public. A gentleman in Phoenix bought the truck and had it shipped out here to Arizona in 2012. The second owner here in Phoenix put about a thousand miles on the truck and now is selling the truck. He originally purchased it with the idea of putting AC in the truck but then decided that he did not want to invest the money in the truck and sold it. I have had experience with putting AC in these trucks and so I purchased it from him to be my daily driver. Two days after I bought the truck I tore my right rotator cuff and had to undergo surgery. Now I will be in a sling for 6 weeks followed by another 3 months or so of therapy before I can use my right shoulder again. My orthopedic doctor recommended that I not use a manual transmission as my daily driver going forward because my tear was very severe and he thinks it will compromise the procedure. So I am making it available for sale. The pictures speak for themselves and don't really even do the car justice. It is in MINT condition with only 9902 miles on the truck. There is not one ding or scratch on the truck. There are two tiny paint chips one on the front edge of the hood and one on where the tailgate meets the edge of the bed on the drivers side. That is it. Interior has no stains, no tears, no funny smells. Looks and smells brand new. There is not even wear on the floor mats. The grain pattern on the steering wheel and the shifter is like new. All glass is like new. Everything works on the truck. It is a base truck with no power options or AC. Estimates for AC installation are from about $1500-2000 if you have a shop do it with all factory parts. Obviously if you did it yourself the cost would be much, much less. The truck was ordered with base package, no AC and the big motor (4.3L V6) with the manual trans by the original owner because that's what he preferred and he liked to go fast. This little truck does scoot right along and is a blast to drive. The second owner put on the Keystone Raider classic rims with brand new tires. He liked the old school look that these rims gave the truck. I do not have the original wheels but they are abundantly available if you wanted to go that route. The truck is spotless, and runs and drives as new (probably because it is basically new). No leaks, no funny noises and no rust or corrosion of any kind anywhere on this truck. This truck sold new for somewhere in the neighborhood of 14k when brand new. The new owner will get a near new truck at less than half of this amount. This is truely a great deal on what has to be one of the lowest mile 1999 S-10 pickups on the planet. If you have questions please ask and I will do my best to answer them. Check the pictures and my feedback and bid with confidence. This truck CANNOT disappoint, it is that nice.
