For sale: One-repaint survivor high desert dry Montana 70 Chevy K5 CST Blazer 4x4. I purchased the truck from a local guy that I believe was the 2nd owner, he had the truck 20 years and maintained it well and it shows. He was into these 67-72 trucks and upgraded to the 71-72 disk brake front end and posi rear. The truck is in great condition with no rot or rust. He had the rig repainted 15 years ago at a quality shop here in town, and it's still in good condition. Minor rust repair was done, but nothing major. Here in the land of sagebrush and prickly pear cactus, we only see 10 inches of total moisture per year and no salt is used on the roads, so we don't see rust issues. Truck still has factory chalk marks under hood and underneath! This Blazer is ready to use as is and I'll do my best to describe it below. Exterior: Paint is in good condition and truck looks great The casual observer won't find any flaws. Car show nit-pickers will find a few small chips that were touched up on cowl and driver door. NO rot or rust, minor repairs were done when the truck was repainted in the factory dark blue color 15 years ago that include rockers, one spot behind passenger rear wheel and a couple of small spots where windshield seal leaked near kick panel/footwell. We don't see rust or rot issues in this arid country- there's just no moisture. I have owned many of these trucks, and I think this is one of the driest I have ever seen, owing to years of meticulous care and proper storage. Underside of truck is super clean - floors, etc all look nice and dry - will add link to more pics underneath. Glass is good and windshield is new. It really is an honest rig, you can see that it's very straight and dry overall. Chrome in good condition with no pitting. Grille surround is in fairly good shape with only a few dings. Grille center bar has a pretty big scratch/ding as shown. Front bumper has a few dings. Rally wheels are in good shape with new trim rings. Interior: All original except front seat covers and very presentable. Factory A/C truck, but previous owner robbed most of the stuff for another 2WD shortbox truck he had, figuring this was a 4wd and didn't need A/C! Most of the stuff is readily available to make it functional again. Front seats had a few rips , so I had them recovered with the correct upholstery from Classic Industries. Driver door panel has a couple small tears as shown. Headliner and visors good. Original dashpad in good shape, gauge bezel shows wear. Original carpet shows wear but isn't torn up. Rear CST panels were cut at the very back for storage of some kind behind rear seat, they are available reproduction. Original steering wheel has the usual cracks. Everything seems to work except temp gauge and of course A/C. Aftermarket stereo was installed and woks. Heater switch failed and previous owner installed external switch on bottom of dash out of sight. Overall really nice shape for a truck of this age and no issues to drive and use. Mechanical: Starts, runs, drives out well, no major issues - 350 4 barrel engine runs smooth and pulls hard and trans shifts well. I had a professional mechanic inspect and drive the truck and he gave it a great review with the only possible repair needed being new U-joints. Shortblock was replaced at 96k miles, not the VIN matching original engine now but the code on pad decodes to a 1970 350 4 barrel engine! Heads were replaced at 113k miles. Oil pressure is good and no noticeable smoke or significant leaks other than the typical valve seal puff at startup once in a while. I tested the 4 x 4 and transfer case and everything seem to work fine. Truck doesn't seem heat at all. Exhaust is stock type and quiet. Everything on the truck appears to work except temp gauge and A/C from what I can tell. Tires are 33 x 12.50 and are not cracked, and have a season of tread left. Like all these short wheelbase rigs with huge tires, it will follow the ruts on some roads. On good roads it's fine. I had a complete front end inspection and alignment done and it's up to you if you want to live with it or swap to smaller tires. I've put a couple hundred miles on and from what I can tell, the truck ready to use and enjoy. This Blazer has the stock suspension with no lift other than slightly stiffer springs and a 1" block at the rear to offset the factory sag and give it a more aggressive stance. Pricing/Misc: I got a good deal on this rig and you will too. These trucks in good condition sell for double my reserve, which is under $9500 for quick sale. A similar 72 Blazer just sold for $18k here on Ebay and it needed paint. Title is clear with no lien and signed off and notarized and ready to fill in your name as purchaser. THANKS GOOD LUCK!

Among the rarest of the American muscle cars that went racing in the early Seventies — cars including the Camaro Z/28 and the Boss 302 Mustang — the 1970 AMC Trans Am Javelin SST may be the most hard to find, and among the most valuable. Only 100 units of this unique Javelin were produced, and one of them is up for auction at the Mecum event in Dallas on September 20. The Trans Am Javelin was fashioned in a patriotic livery of tricolor paint — red, white and blue — and arrived after the American Motors Corporation had decided in 1968 to compete in the Trans Am racing series against Ford and General Motors. The company's chief driver, Mark Donohue, would dominate the 1971 season, taking seven wins in his Javelin AMX and that yearÂ’s SCCA Trans-Am Championship. AMC took the trophy with 82 points, well ahead of Ford's 61, Chevrolet's 17 and Pontiac's paltry 7. The example listed for auction came equipped with a 390-cubic-inch V-8 engine with 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque, power steering and brakes, dual exhaust, BorgWarner four-speed manual transmission and Hurst competition shifter. Its “ram induction system” sealed a chamber around the air filter so that cool air from the functional hood scoop would be funneled into the intake. This JavÂ’s factory price was $3,995 — a mere $32,000 or so in today's money, though it was expensive by the standards of the time. The 100 Trans Ams were among 19,714 Javelin units built in 1970, so they started out rare, and today the surviving examples are highly collectible, if and when they come up for sale. No bid estimate is available yet. Related Video: Motorsports Chevrolet Ford Pontiac Auctions Automotive History Racing Vehicles Classics

DETROIT — General Motors outlined plans on Monday to add 20 new battery electric and fuel-cell vehicles to its global product lineup by 2023, financed by robust profits from sales of gasoline-fueled trucks and sport utility vehicles in the United States and China. "General Motors believes in an all-electric future," GM global product development chief Mark Reuss said on Monday during a briefing at the company's suburban Detroit technical center. Future generations of GM electric vehicles "will be profitable," Reuss said, but added it was not clear when GM could make all its new vehicle offerings zero-emission electric cars. Regulators in China and some European countries have floated proposals to ban internal combustion engines by 2030 or 2040. "We will continue to make sure our internal combustion engines will get more and more efficient," Reuss said. GM shares were up more than 4 percent in midday New York trading on positive comments from Rod Lache, auto analyst at Deutsche Bank. Automakers, including electric vehicle market leader Tesla, lose money on electric cars because battery costs are still higher than comparable internal combustion engines. The company offered sneak peeks of three EV prototypes: a Buick SUV, a sporty Cadillac wagon and a futuristic pod car wearing a Bolt badge. GM funds its forays into new technology using a river of cash generated by old-technology vehicles popular with its core customer base in the United States heartland. In comparison, Tesla has burned through an estimated $10 billion in cash and has yet to show a full year profit. GM earned more than 90 percent of its $12.5 billion in pretax profits last year in North America, amid robust demand for its lineup of large sport utility vehicles and pickup trucks. The company's profitable operations in China rely on consumer demand for an expanding lineup of gasoline powered SUVs. GM has previously announced plans to make some of its future electric vehicles capable of driving themselves in robot taxi fleets. The company offered sneak peeks of three electric vehicle prototypes: a Buick brand sport utility vehicle, a sporty Cadillac wagon and a futuristic pod car wearing a Bolt badge. GM collaborated with Korean battery maker LG Chem to build the Bolt battery system. Company officials did not say what companies would supply batteries for the larger fleet of vehicles promised by 2023. Fuel-cell vehicles will also play a role in GM's future, the company said.

We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks. Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too. In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
