1971 K/5 Chevy Blazer, 89 K actual miles, very good condition.


This very unique Blazer was purchased new at Ed Black Chevrolet in Albuquerque, NM and has spent it's entire life in the mild, dry, high desert climate of  NM.  I purchased this Blazer 14 years ago from a retired Cadillac tech who owned and carefully maintained the vehicle for 28 years.

There is virtually no rust anywhere on the vehicle.  This includes common problem areas such as floor pans, kick panels, doors, rocker panels, firewall, tailgate, windshield frame, fenders, rear quarter panels, etc.

The body is in very good condition and is very straight.  It was repainted once in the original color and still has a nice gloss.  There are stone chips on some of the lower body panels and there are 3 very small imperfections (dings?) on the body that can only be seen in a certain light.  There is also damage to the right rear fender by the tail lamp which I have taken a picture of.  There was a CB antenna on the driver's side rear quarter.  It was removed and plugged.  The body work was not perfect and the repair is visible.
Although not perfect, the body looks very nice.

The removable top is double wall construction and is in excellent condition.  There are no cracks in the top or lift gate.
The interior is very clean and is in great shape.  The seats are very nice with no rips or tears.  The dash pad is not cracked.  The carpet is clean and is in good condition.  There are no speaker holes cut in the interior metal.  All gauges, lights, switches, radio, etc., work as they should.

The vehicle has the original factory power train.  The engine is a 350, 4 BL Q jet, 4 bolt main, engine code: V1209TBG,  and is in excellent condition.  It starts easy, has no unusual mechanical noises, and runs great.  The transmission is a 350 Turbo that shifts smoothly and has been serviced regularly.  The transfer case is a NP 205 that shifts into all ranges, is quiet and has been serviced regularly.  The rear end is tight and does not clunk or howl.  The front hubs are Warn premium locking hubs.  I have the original blue tab hubs that will go with the vehicle.

The steering , brakes, and suspension are all in good working order.  The vehicle steers straight and does not wander on the road. The brakes do not pull, squeak, or shudder. 
 
It has a new set of 31x10.50R 15 LT tires that have less 1000 miles.

Over all, this is an exceptional vehicle that hasn't been modified, has very low miles, and has the original power train.   It is dependable, quick, and fun to drive.  It doesn't act it's age.

Blazers like this are becoming very hard to find!

Netflix to feature electric cars from GM and others in programming

Sun, Feb 5 2023

LOS ANGELES — Netflix has unveiled a new star for some of its upcoming programming: electric vehicles from General Motors and other automakers. The streaming service announced an agreement on Thursday to feature vehicles including the Chevrolet Bolt, the electric GMC Hummer pickup and the Cadillac Lyriq in TV series and films "where relevant." The companies will highlight the partnership in a commercial featuring Will Ferrell that will air during the Feb. 12 Super Bowl. Netflix and GM called the agreement "part of a commitment to a more sustainable future." Financial terms were not disclosed. Netflix said it will help creators "better understand how EVs can complement and enhance their stories." Shows that will feature GM's electric vehicles include "Love is Blind," "Queer Eye" and "Unstable." Netflix productions also will include electric vehicles made by other automakers, the company said.   Marketing/Advertising TV/Movies Chevrolet GM GMC Hummer

5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals

Sun, Mar 3 2024

EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment.  But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles.
