HERE IS A GORGEOUS 1972 CHEVROLET K-5 FULL SIZE BLAZER WITH 136K ORIGINAL MILES, WITH STRONG RUNNING 350CI V8 AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND 4WD THAT IS ABSOLUTELY TURN-KEY AND READY TO CRUISE!
Please e-mail me with questions or to set up an inspection to see the car in person.
The truck was privately owned and it took me a good few months to actually acquire it from the previous owner. I had been looking for one of these 70-72 Blazers for a good couple of years now, and couldn't quite afford them since the ones I usually saw were built to the max or complete rust buckets. This one here was not too far from my house and was in overall excellent shape, both mechanically and cosmetically. Previous owner told me it originally came from sunny Utah, and has been a dry desert truck most of its life. At one point the engine was replaced and in within the last 7-8 years it has only been driven a total of 1000 or so miles so it's very fresh. Nicely optioned, with original 136k miles (only 1000 of those miles on new engine) that you can get in and drive anywhere without worries.
OPTIONS:
Power steering
Power DISC front brakes
Bucket seat interior
Dual exhaust
Stock truck Rally wheels with 31" tires
Automatic transmission on the column
Full soft top
Dual color (white with gray lower body)
Tow hitch
4 wheel drive
350ci 4bbl. V8
Mechanically it fires right up and sounds great along with the nice and throaty exhaust system. Motor is a 350ci V8 that is virtually all stock with the exception of an aluminum intake manifold and 4bbl. carburetor conversion. Transmission is solid and shifts good through all the gears without any noises or grinding. Now as for driving the car, i've mostly driven it around town here and there, every once in a while hauling some parts with it or taking it to the local cruise night or car show when the weather was nice. You can cruise with it on the highway all day and I would trust it to drive anywhere at the drop of a hat.
Interior is very presentable. Bucket seats in good shape, recovered some years ago (there is no back seat). Door panels in excellent shape overall. Carpet is presentable with normal wear. Dash pad is excellent. Soft top is very good overall with NO rips, and just some light fogging on the plastic windows. Overall very presentable for a working man's driver truck.
Underside has a SOLID frame. Excellent original floorboards and bed frame, with only some scaly surface rust underneath, from regular use, and two dime sized holes by driver's side inner fender well. VERY NICE DRY CAR OVERALL!
The old girl is NOT perfect by any means of course so please keep that in mind when bidding. Paint is in fairly good shape and cleans up very nice, but is older and does have a few imperfections here and there from regular use, as you would expect (not super shiny as it's single stage, but shows well). A couple of bubbles under the paint, on passenger door, and some minor traces of filler by lower door corners and rockers. Not working: horn (not connected), radio (not connected), perhaps a bulb or two here and there would need replacing. When the truck is cold, the belts squeal a bit until it warms up.
So overall she is not perfect and will need some minor TLC depending on how nice you want it to be and what you plan to do with the car. Please note, I cannot remember every single issue with the car, nor do I know everything wrong with it, as it is after all over 30 years old so keep that in mind.
If you just want a GREAT LOOKING and nearly RUST-FREE DRIVER, this is the car for you. If you want a show car, it will need some considerable investment or total restoration to bring it up to that level of course. I ENCOURAGE ANYONE BIDDING OR SERIOUSLY INTERESTED TO COME LOOK AT IT IN PERSON. I WILL BE GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU TOP TO BOTTOM SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.
