1986 K5 Blazer.  Four-wheel drive with manual locking hubs.  3/4 ton running gear front and back with 16" wheels and tires. Rear and front hubs are from a 1988 3/4 ton Suburban. Added leafs to rear springs and also has new Firestone air-suspension. Also a trailer hitch.  Engine has a Banks turbo system- a lot boost setup that maxes around 7 PSI boost. Engine has recently rebuilt injection pump, new HD electric fuel pump, glow plugs, water-pump, and vacuum pump.  Brakes are near new.   Transmission is a 1990 from a diesel Suburban. Model 4L60.  Has 500 miles since a complete rebuilt and upgrade with HD clutches, band, custom made torque-converter, etc.  Exhaust has a stainless-steel muffler.  Quad shocks in front.  Blazer had some rust and a Western plow on it when I got it. I replaced some rusty sheet-metal in rockers, floors, and rear tailgate girder.  I cut part of the snow-plow frame off and used as a front tire mount.  Camper body on it now was made by Hallmark in Colorado.  Has a pop-up roof. Propane heat and a fold-out bed, along with a over-cab bed.  Also front seats fold down flat for a 3rd bed if wanted.   Front seat is split bench and there's a small 2nd seat in back that comes out. So can seat four but will be tight. Camper has its own twin deep-cycle batteries and DC to AC electric rated 2000 watts.  NOTE:   I also have an OEM tailgate and cap if someone wants to convert this back to a typical Blazer.  You can have your choice of a tailgate with electric window or crank.  Choice of fiberglass cap with sliding side windows or fixed. Also choice of OEM back seats and spare carriers. But -you must remove them from other vehicles I have here. I do not have time. I am getting ready to sell my place and move.  If bought  - I will only be at my place in New York until August 8.
I will not have time to help with anything.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
