Pineville, Pennsylvania, United States

This is a one owner 1993 full size blazer that I drove daily through 2004 then it was parked at our farm and driven around there a couple times before being parked basically out of use.  It sat for a couple years whereupon I decided I'd start to drive it again [I always really liked it].  I put in a battery, a little fresh gas and tried to fire it up - no go. So I put some gas in the throttle body and it started right up.  Diagnosis no fuel - bad fuel pump.  Instead of trying to replace the fuel pump and whatnot since I am not the mechanic I was 10 years ago..... I'm selling it here with low reserve. 

It is a solid truck for someone to fix up or lift or do something cool with I'm just not skilled enough to do it.  It's like a barn find.

It needs at the very least a fuel pump, fuel filter, exhaust from the catalytic converter back and a very thorough cleaning inside.  All the fluids are old.  I'm the only person who ever drove it.

I kept this truck because I always liked it a lot and figured that I'd put a plow on it or someday drive it again but I have too many cars and trucks [please see my other listings] basically I'm cleaning up around the farm and my various properties. 

This truck is a perfect candidate for Overhaulin' or any other car fixup show. 

Passed PA inspection in 5/2003 with 208,240 miles - driven 5,000 miles since. 

Previous inspection mileage was 193,995.

New fuel pump, filter and exhaust parts are included....

the thorough cleaning it needs, unfortunately, is not.

The rear carpet is not salvageable but the rest of the carpets should be ok with shampoo.  Back seat was never really used - passenger seat is OK too.

Up until when I stopped using this truck it always ran great and was well maintained.

Has a 5.7 / 350 engine & 4 speed auto trans w/OD.  Replaced the trans with a factory rebuilt unit at some point.

See photo of window sticker for details on specs.

Has K5A4 Preferred Group - Sport Package

Heavy duty trailering package / Off road chassis package / Locking rear differential / 6,250 GVW - 3.42 rear.

Noted issues-

The driver side door is hard to open and close - needs oiling.

The driver seat is a little off - it has a small hole and the frame was welded before.

The driver side door mirror is cracked.

Both rear tires have slow leaks and are probably no good from being flat.

The tailgate is stuck closed and the lift cylinders on the rear glass are bad.

There is a small dent on the passenger side by the rear wheel.

There are a couple rust spots on the hood that are quarter to half dollar size.

All glass is OK no cracks were observed.

Driver door panel and armrest are pretty worn and the button caps from the power window buttons are missing.

Original window sticker, spare tire and owner's manual included.

I'm no expert but it is 100% original [other than the radio] and has to be a straight solid truck - was never in any accidents.

Please review the description and pictures carefully before bidding. 

I'll gladly answer any questions and post more pictures if requested.  The motor is 100% stock and I forgot to take a picture of it.  Will do asap.

All sales are final, no warranty, this sells as-is and will need repairs to be considered drivable. 

Terms - F.O.B. 18946; $500 minimum deposit by paypal within 24 hours or payment in full if you prefer. 

Please do not bid if you do not plan to buy, don't have the money or have not read the description carefully. 

Must be towed away.  I will help load.

Valet mode captures joyride in red Corvette

Thu, Dec 18 2014

A man in California is among the first to catch a valet behaving badly in his 2015 Corvette using a controversial built-in recording feature. Dan Cowles told KTLA 5 when he bought his dream car, a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, he opted for the Performance Data Recorder. The Corvette PDR uses a high-definition camera mounted in the windshield header, a microphone in the cabin and a GPS receiver that record and track the sports car's movements and sounds. They work together to produce a video with telemetry overlay, so you can see acceleration rates, lap times and g-forces. The system can be customized to show extensive performance data, or simply video of your drive like a traditional dash cam. It also comes with Valet Mode, which locks the glove box, disables entertainment and records video. The audio recording feature ran afoul of several state's recording consent laws, but this video has no audio, indicating the fix may have been as easy as turning off the microphone. Cowles dropped off his hot red 'Vette with the valets at the Segerstrom Center for the Performing Arts in Costa Mesa, CA. When he got his car back he checked the PDR and discovered footage of the valet taking a short, but intense, joyride in the garage. In the video, the valet finds a straightaway in a tiered parking garage and pushes the car to 50 miles per hour in five seconds before quickly stopping. He then parks the car without incident. The valet then gets out of the car and takes one more admiring look at the front. The valet company has yet to commented on the video, according to Fox News, but valets everywhere should be on notice; that little red Corvette you have your eye on may have its eyes on you.

Next-gen Chevy Volt gets Corvette looks, adjustable regen levels

Sat, Dec 20 2014

The hood may say "full speed ahead." The regenerative braking system says "slow down a bit." One person's automotive improvements is another's identity crisis, all in a day's work analyzing the new Chevrolet Volt. The next-generation version of General Motors' first extended-range plug in will include design touches taken from to the new Chevrolet Corvette, GM's iconic sports car. Hexagonal taillights and a "taut" hood will be part of the new package, Automotive News says, citing General Motors design chief Ed Wilbur. But does that mean the Volt is shedding any of its green-car cred? Not at all, if one considers that the Volt will also let the driver adjust the degree of regenerative braking using steering-wheel paddles to dial up and recapture as much energy as possible and engage in "one-pedal" driving or turn it down for easier coasting. Check out the 55-second video below featuring GM executives Mark Reuss and Andrew Farah trying out the Volt's new regenerative-braking system that was first used on the Cadillac ELR. GM will have more details for us when it unveils the 2016 Chevy Volt at the North American Auto Show in Detroit next month. The new version is said to have a larger battery, a longer all-electric driving range and more power, but Chevy's been fairly mum on those sorts of performance details so far.

2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut

Tue, Oct 21 2014

The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US – with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011.

An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the Year® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.
