Hi there,

I live just outside of London, England.

Have a 66 C10 in bits, mid rebuild.

Also did a 79 Blazer 2WD recently.

I am looking at possibly buying a 2000 S10 4.3 Auto

Not sure about the real build year as the onlone documentation shows various years, including first registration for 31 December 2001

Always liked them, this one is the right colour, body shape (extra cab) and motor/trans.

It is claimed to have only done 38k miles, and had some accident repairs 10 years or 5 years ago.

They are not common in England and the price is about $5k but over here, it would cost me near $3k just to get it on my driveway, due to shipping and 20% import duty.

I always like to ask questions.

Is there stuff to look out for?

Things that give up due to age, rather than abuse?

The interior and exterior looks good from 90 miles away in the pics, as does the online DMV history.

38k miles

Thank you.
