Vehicle Detail
BANK REPO from Central Bank in Lebanon, MO. 1991 Chevy S-10 truck that has been modified to a V8 rocket. Automatic tranny with floor shift. Selling as mileage exempt. State of Missouri does not require the mileage be recorded on anything over 10 years old. Not sure if the miles are accurate or at what point along the way the truck was converted from original to V8 power plant. EXTERIOR: Truck has been painted a heavy metallic candy apple red probably within the past couple of years and I cannot find any scratches, dings, dents, or chips in the paint. The truck has been sitting all winter and needs to be washed, but will shine great once cleaned. Tires are 235/60 x 15 front and 275/60 x 15 rears on Eagle Alloys. Tires are 75% front, 50% rear. You can only imagine why the rears have less tread... INTERIOR: Good cloth seats. Obviously recovered in an old school KFC pattern. No rips, tears, or stains. Tinted windows. Has the monster tach on the dash + a factory tach dash. MECHANICAL: Here's the thing...I did not put this truck together, so I do not know much about the particulars of the drivetrain. The engine is a GM V8--not sure if it's a 350, but would assume. Could have been bored to something larger than a 350, who knows. It had been sitting since November and started right up for me yesterday, but battery does need charged or replaced. Sounds great. I am speculating that the engine is possibly from a dirt track race car or similar. It idles about 1,000 + rpms and appears to have a stall converter in the tranny. I've driven the truck around the block a time or two and seems to run out strong. Very hard to keep from lighting up the tires. The only defects I can find is that the breather is missing--we forgot to grab it when we were there to repo the truck (it was in the garage) and there's a couple of oil leaks. Nothing major--maybe leaked a cup over 6 months. This truck is going to be a lot of fun for someone. I would not buy it for your 16 year old son--he will hurt someone and come home with a hand full of tickets. It is a powerful truck, but not so radical that it cannot be driven daily on the street. It looks good, sounds good, and has more power than should be legal. Must come and get it on a weekday (Monday-Friday). REPO/NO WARRANTY: The vehicle you are purchasing is a repossession by Central Bank in Lebanon, Missouri. I will give a good description of what I know about the vehicle, but this has not been my personal vehicle and in most cases I do not have a detailed history on the vehicle. All vehicles are sold without warranty expressed or implied. Vehicle has not been safety inspected. Central Bank does not guaranty the vehicle to pass safety inspection. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. There is no negotiation on price after the sale or upon delivery of the vehicle. Bidders are highly encouraged to come and inspect the vehicle before the end of the auction. DO NOT ASK THESE QUESTIONS: 1. Reserve price (on auctions w/a reserve) 2. Amount owed on the vehicle 3. Buy-it-now price 4. I will not end the auction early 5. I will not send second chance offers SCAMS: I do not send second chance offers. If you are contacted buy someone wanting to sell you an item I’ve had listed for a ridiculously low price and willing ship it across the country for $20, IT IS A SCAM. They will likely want you to pay thru Ebay, which does not happen either. If you buy something from Central Bank, your check will be made directly to Central Bank and you can pay for the vehicle when you pick it up. We do not do shipping. You can arrange and pay for shipping on your own, if you so choose. TEST DRIVE: NOT possible. You are welcome to come and inspect the vehicle, start, and drive it around the parking lot, but we DO NOT allow test drives on the street/road under any circumstances. This is not a car dealership. TITLE: Central Bank has a lien-free title for all vehicles. Title to vehicle will be transferred with payment in full, and/or once funds have been verified. All you pay is the high bid amount. No hidden fees. PAYMENT: Central Bank expects payment in full within 7 days of the auction ending. Preferred payment methods are wire transfers, official checks, or money orders. Personal or business checks are accepted, but the title will not be transferred until the funds have cleared your account. SELL TO LOCATIONS: Due to some recent problems with winning bidders from countries outside the USA not completing the transaction, I have restricted sales to the USA. PICK UP & DELIVERY: Buyer is responsible for getting their purchase to its new home. Arrangements will need to be made in advance on Monday - Friday. Weekday pick ups should be by 4:00, unless special arrangements are made. DEPOSIT: No deposit is required if you pay within 7 days. If you are unable to pay and pick up the vehicle within 7 days, we require a 10% or $250 deposit (whichever is greater). FEEDBACK: All bidders with zero (0) feedback must e-mail me before bidding or your bid will be cancelled. Feedback will be left on the buyer’s account once the transaction is completed. CONTACT INFORMATION: E-MAIL is by far the best method of contact. I will reply to e-mails within 24 hours unless a weekend or holiday. I am VERY difficult to get on the phone. You may try to call Central Bank, 9:00 am – 4:00pm, CST, Monday-Thursday, and 9:00am – 6:00 pm on Fridays. Phone (417)-532-2151, ask for Travis, you will probably have to leave a message. On Apr-24-10 at 11:10:24 PDT, seller added the following information: OK, so I've checked out the engine a little further. It does appears to have a little noise in it arouind 3,000 rpms--possibly piston slap? It does run. Does not overheat. Does idle. Does not appear to be missing, coughing, or spluttering. Like I stated previously...it is a repo, I did not build the truck, and I know nothing else of its history. Buyer beware.
