DeKalb, Illinois, United States

1984 K5 Blazer 4X4. Professionally restored 2yrs ago. Originally built for off road use until RPM Restorations got there hands on it. Now it's a weekend driver that has been used a couple times, gently offroad. Just enough to prove to myself that it is able to perform the way it was intended.
It has a 7.4 liter/454 GM crate motor, a "Hot Cam" from GM Performance Parts, RPM intake, and a Holly 750 Carburetor. TH400 transmission, custom built, mild converter, aftermarket valvebody. Painless wiring harness. Custom built Dash with Autometer gauges.
NP205 transfer case, completely rebuilt, twin stick. Dana 60 front axle, 4.56 gears. Rebuilt Yukon locker. Heim joint crossover steering. Dana 70 rear axle, 4.56 gears, open, rebuilt. Anti wrap bar. H1 double beadlock wheels, 36"Goodyear OZ tires. Everything listed above is new or has been rebuilt 3700 miles ago.

The Blazer started off with a rust free body with the exception of the doors which were replaced with new ones. The hood had a dent so it was replaced as well. The front fenders were cut for wheel clearance.It has new door handles and latches. All the chrome is in excellent condition. It has a custom role cage tied to the body.
The top has been completely removed to give it the look of a 1974 blazer. It has a full soft top with sides that role up or the top can be completely removed.
The Original odometer shows 40k miles (I couldn't tell you for sure whether that reading is actual or not). The newly installed Autometer odometer shows 3700 miles which is acurate since the rebuild. 
It was built to drive, not as a trailer queen or show car although it did win the peoples choice award at the Turning Back Times car show in Sycamore, IL in 2013 (over 2000 vehicles in attendance). It appraised for $25k in August of 2013.
 All work on this truck was professionally done with no short cuts!

I HATE to see I go but I have 3 boys are keeping me plenty busy so I have no time to enjoy it. 

THE RESERVE IS SET VERY LOW. IF YOU BID BE PREPARED TO BUY! 

$1000.00 Deposit required within 24hrs of sale ending unless prior arrangements are made.
Full payment due no later than 7 days of auction ending.

Watch Evo pick its 2015 Car of the Year in this epic video

Mon, Dec 7 2015

With just a few days left in 2015, it's the perfect time to check out Evo's annual Car of the Year test to determine the greatest performance vehicle of the last 12 months. The writers' picks for the 11 finalists spanned a breadth of engaging models and included: Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport, Lamborghini Aventador SV, Seat Leon Cupra Sub8, McLaren 675LT, Porsche 991 GT3 RS, Porsche Cayman GT4, Honda Civic Type R, Ferrari 488 GTB, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Lotus Evora 400, and Mercedes-AMG GT S. For the venue to test the mettle of these performance machines, Evo stuck close to home this year and visited the twisting roads at the beautiful north coast of Scotland. Racing brothers Marino and Dario Franchitti also came along for the ride to provide two more voices in the competitive challenge to determine a winner. Evo's video explains why each model deserves to be among such rarified company but doesn't gloss over their faults either. There can be only one winner, though. We don't want to spoil it, so check out the clip for magnificent views of these performance machines through the Scottish countryside.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
