1987 Chevrolet S-10 review from North America
"She's a Beauty on life support"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission Blew up at 131,000 miles.
At 168,822 miles, the transmission blew up again. Vehicle is currently awaiting service.
General comments?
It used to be a work truck, but now it is for personal use. It's old, it's falling apart, but it still starts up when I need it to. It refuses to die!!! I am moving to California next year, from Georgia, and the truck is going with me, but after this last, long road trip it will be permenantly retired. I plan to put the truck up on blocks in my back yard and plant flowers in the back of it.Finally, she can rest in peace.
