1984 M1009 Chevrolet Blazer.
6.2 Detroit Diesel engine. Automatic transmission. All stock CUCV M1009. Glow plugs have been upgraded. Has original CARC paint. No radio antenna bracket holes. M1009 was an MP truck for North Dakota National Guard. Runs, shifts, starts, drives, sounds great. All glass is good. This CUCV WILL start a 0 degrees! It has a block heater for temps below 0. I ALWAYS add 3 ounces of stanadyne pump oil to fuel with every fill up. I dont let it get below 1/4 of a tank. Has a new heater core. Everything works. Has upgraded glow plugs, starter relay, and glow plug controller. Rear pintle hitch upgraded to pintle with 2 inch ball. Has an original spare tire. Has original fire extinguisher. Comes with another top. (Had one left over from a salvage M1009 I bought). Mileage will go up until the first bid. I will park it and not drive it anymore once it receives the first bid. I have extras of all the hard to find items for these: Glow plug card Both alternators Tailgate crank Plastic covers for seat pivots Dash panel bezel Dash cover Brand new blackout lights Vacuum pump etc. These items will be available to buyer only at an additional cost. They are not included in auction! Everything in this CUCV has been checked against and any repairs made strictly according to the technical military manuals. Has the correct milspec batteries. (Never been ran down or jump started) I upgraded the lockouts, but you can have the originals if you want them. Kevlar goodyears have plenty of tread. Comes with an original 5 gallon jerry can for rear bracket(can not pictured) NO wiring has been hacked into on this one! I am not afraid to drive anywhere in this truck and have taken it on several trips with NO issues. I dont push it past 65 mph. I had all paperwork on this truck from the North Dakota National Guard but I cannot find it. I have owned it for 6 years and the paperwork may have been thrown away? Paperwork stated it had a new engine at 40 some thousand miles, but without the paperwork, I have no way of proving that. I have no question with as good as it runs. LED lights on grill guard are NOT included and have been removed. A friend of mine works for a light manufacturer that designed these for 24 volt vehicles and I tried them out for a couple years. You can have what I have left of the stanadyne pump oil. (3 ounces to 30 gallons fuel) and I recommend using it to add the lubricity that today's diesel fuel is lacking. Has original jack and jack handle. Was never forklifted at auction lot. Was never listed as a non-runner. Has a new high-torque starter with correct GM starter bracket to block. Has been kept clean and indoors for the winter months here in South Dakota. No rust through anywhere. Original battery hold down brackets are included with auction and they are on the blazer now. ( I noticed in pictures they weren't installed. I had just installed the new batteries) Only known issues: Fan blower motor squeals a little bit sometimes. Neither outer door lock is operable with key. (occasionally the passenger side will lock/unlock) Small wrinkle on right rear lower fender behind tire( I back up onto a log in my back yard)(see pictures) There is a spot on tailgate that has been repaired by the National Guard before I got it.(see pictures) You could fly in and drive this home to anywhere you live. It has no issues that would prevent you from driving it home. I will even pick you up at the airport in the M1009. It can sit here for 60 days. I will be moving at that time. That is my ONLY reason for selling this truck. It has been the most reliable, go-anywhere vehicle I have had over the past 6 years. I know I will regret selling it but life happens! These are getting phased out and are getting harder and harder to find in this condition that haven't been restored. I can take videos, pictures of anything you want to see/hear, etc. My number is 605-858-3400 if you want to call and ask questions or whatever. I HAVE THIS FOR SALE LOCALLY. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE THE LISTING AND END AUCTION AT ANY TIME. ONCE RESERVE IS MET, I WILL SELL IT TO HIGH BIDDER!!! |

Nissan Leaf sets new November sales record, Chevy Volt drops again
Tue, Dec 2 2014When you talk to people in the plug-in vehicle industry, one theme you hear repeatedly is that the more plug-in cars that are out there, the better things are for everyone. One reason is that more EVs build a need for more public chargers, and more chargers mean more people see that plugging in is feasible. But there's still something to be said for old-fashioned competition, and in the sales race between the two long-running plug-in vehicles in the US, the Nissan Leaf is resoundingly beating the Chevy Volt for 2014. In fact, it won't be long before the EV's cumulative sales top the PHEV's. But that's a topic for another month. For now, we have the sales results from November. Unsurprisingly, Nissan set another monthly record (that is, the best Leaf sales in any November, the 22nd time in a row we've seen a monthly record) with 2,687 sales last month. That's up 34 percent over last November and up 35 percent year-to-date. Toby Perry, Nissan's director of electric vehicle marketing, said in a statement that, "Our 'Kick Gas' ad campaign and 'No Charge to Charge' launch in Chicago and Atlanta drove an increase in November Leaf sales. Even with gas prices falling across the country, consumers appreciate that the cost of driving a Nissan Leaf is still a fraction of that of a gas-powered car." Over on the Chevy side of the ledger, there were 1,336 Volt sales last month, down 30.4 percent from the 1,920 sold in November 2013. So far this year, Volt sales are down 16.4 percent and Chevy has sold 17,315 Volts in 2014. As we said last month, the Volt slump might be due to people waiting on the new version to make an appearance at the Detroit Auto Show next month before going on sale in the second half of 2015. So far in 2014, Nissan has sold 27,098 Leafs. Look for our detailed post of US green car sales in the near future. Until then, please discuss last month's Leaf and Volt sale in the comments, below.

Looking back at the Citation IV concept that likely shaped the GM EV1
Wed, Aug 20 2014Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it. We're not sure how that applies to the GM EV1, but we'd still like to share something from Autoline Daily, an online automotive new show with our friend John McElroy. He's been covering the business for decades now and recently found something interesting: pictures of the 1984 Chevrolet Citation IV concept, seen above. Displayed half a decade before the first electric concept that would become the EV1 (inset), McElroy says it's now clear that the elegant, aerodynamic EV1 took a lot of styling cues from the Citation IV, which was developed in part thanks to GM's new-at-the-time Aerodynamics Laboratory. We agree with him that the spats over the rear wheels, the flush glass, and the covered headlights all bear a certain kind of similarity between the two cars. That the colors almost match is a nice coincidence. The Impact (the concept version of the EV1) looked "frumpier," McElroy says, because it wasn't as long as the Citation. You can read a lot more about the Citation IV here and check out McElroy's thoughts in the video below. Find the Citation starting at around 3:45. This content is hosted by a third party.

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.
