This is a 1994 Chevrolet Blazer 2 door.  This was nearing the end of the full size K series Blazer before it was rebadged as the Tahoe.  This is one of the finest examples that you will probably see.  It has been meticulously maintained.  It currently has 111k miles on it and is hard loaded with nearly every option. This only had a drivers seat for a power seat option.  It has all power equipment and a tilt wheel.  From what I've been able to discover the truck was bought new her in Colorado.  The second owner purchased it 13 years ago.  It has been garaged and it definitely shows.  It also has the more desirable manual shift transfer case.  No electric motors to give out when you need it most. 

 

·         It has new paint which is a gorgeous black with a deep gunmetal metallic gray lower half. It was then clear coated and polished.  It is in incredible condition!  The paint shop then used 3M clear bra material to cover the lower rockers to protect it from rock chips which would normally show up in this area.  I just can't say enough about this paint job.  It's hard to get black to lay down this good. The door hinge pins and bushings were also replaced along with some other small pieces when it was in for the paint.  Total was $3300.00.

 

·         The engine was replaced about 30k ago.  A factory replacement 5.7 TBI fuel injected (350ci) GM crate engine was used to keep with the originality and more importantly, reliability.  It was done at a reputable shop in Denver and while there a tall K&N air filter took the place of the factory unit.  Previous owner stated it was a little over $3,000.00 for the replacement. 

 

·         Exhaust.  It was redone around the time the engine was replaced.   Starts at the factory manifolds.  No headers to leak and cause problems.  It now has a Magna flow exhaust and Hi-Flow cat which spilt into duals running out the back.  There are black chrome tips finishing it off which give it an incredible look.  The truck has a mild rumble to it.  It's not obnoxious, loud and droning when you're driving at highway speeds.  It's clean with a nice note.   I believe that was about $750.00.  It passes the strict Colorado A.I.R. emissions program with ease. 

 

·         Interior.  It is gray cloth which is in near perfect condition! The carpet is very nice for the age as it looks to have been running floor mats the majority of it's life.  Seats are as comfortable as if new and not worn out with broken down side bolsters, torn material, etc.  I've added a new, billet steering wheel and hub assembly for personal preference but the horn is not hooked up through this wheel.  The horn works with the factory wheel. I'm negotiable if the winning bidder wants just the factory wheel.  I'd like to keep the billet one.  Factory wheel is included with the sale price.  The stereo system is all factory and works perfectly.  It does have upgraded speakers and a hidden amp in the back as well as an Alpine CD changer under the drivers seat.  The head unit is contained in the overhead console.  The system looks OEM but the sound quality is greatly improved over the factory system.  It is as clean and solid as the truck it's in. The front two roll ups have a mid level degree of tint added to them that matches the rear glass. 

 

·         Tires and wheels were replaced with very nice polished  17" alloy rims wrapped in Remington LT275/70R 17 all terrain tires.  I would estimate that they have about  90-95% tread life left.  No weird wear patterns, etc.  The truck drives nice and straight and rides super smooth.   I believe they were $1700.00.

·         Drivetrain.  The truck was ordered with most options which included the factory tow package.  This gets you 3.73 gears and the posi-track.  Z-71 package as well.  All fluids, filters, gaskets etc were replaced and serviced when the engine was done.  That includes the trans (700R4), transfer cases and both front and rear differentials, etc.

 

·         I replaced the lights rather than cleaning up the factory ones.  They were starting to show their age with slight fading.  This detracted from overall condition of the truck.  They are all new to factory specs.  No Pep-boy specials with the "European look" or those other  weird designs.  I like the OEM, factory GM look.  The truck looks even better now.  The new owner will get all of the factory original lights that were removed.  Also, while I was up there I added a chrome billet bow tie to finish it off. 

 

·         I have a file folder of receipts for hoses, fuel pump, seals and gaskets and other little odds and ends which shows the truck has been very well cared for.  If there was an issue the owners fixed it.   

 

The detractors that I see are the elastic document holders on the visors are sagging which they all do in time.  I've pinned them up so they are presentable.  It has a small crack on one of the dash panel screws in the upper left side of the dash.  You can see it in one of the pics if you look close enough.  Minor but mentionable.  The windshield has some age appropriate pitting to it.  I was planning on replacing it if I keep it.  Near perfect clear glass is what I prefer.  This is still in decent shape but I'm just picky about the glass. 

 

I just can't say enough about the condition of this Blazer.  It handles, rides and runs extremely well.  It is a very comfortable truck.  It represents one of the cleanest examples of this series of Chevrolet trucks that you will find.  This is the example that others should be measured against.  It's a great two door Blazer with tons of life left in it.  Lifes unexpected changes forces the sale of many of the toys to include this one.   

 

I would strongly, strongly encourage that you have an independent inspection done prior to bidding on this truck.  I'm confident that the appraiser will agree that it has been kept in incredible condition and is ready to go another few decades down the road!   It has a clean Carfax which shows me as the third owner. 

 

ASK ALL QUESTIONS PROR TO PLACING A BID!  YOUR BID IS A BINDING CONTRACT.  AGAIN, I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE SERIOUS BUYERS TO SEND A REPUTABLE INSPECTOR TO LOOK AT THE TRUCK.  IT WILL HELP TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS THAT YOU MAY HAVE WHEN PURCHASING A VEHICLE SIGHT UNSEEN.   

 

I will do what I can if you'd like to look at the truck in person but please be considerate and give plenty of advanced notice.  I have a busy work and personal schedule that I'll need to work around. 

SHIPPING:  Buyer will make all arrangements surrounding shipping of the vehicle.  I will do what I can on my end to work with the carrier of your choice but you are responsible for shipping arrangements and payment to the carrier. 

PAYMENT:  A non refundable deposit of $300.00 is due within 24 hours of auctions end.  Remaining payment is due within 7 calander days from auctions end date. 

 

The reserve is in place for reasons of fairness.  It is very reasonable considering what this truck is and its condition.  Again, send an independant, qualified inspector to look at the vehicle.  I'm sure they'll be impressed with its condition.

**********UPDATE:  Had a few of questions that I thought I'd address. 

I found the reciept for the GM engine along with some other docs that came with it. Thought I didn't have it but it was buried in the file. 

Yes, the K&N filter was ordered with the recharge kit and it will be included.  It also has a Chiltons manual that will go with it.   

Yes, the full size spare is excellent.  Still has the hairs on it and looks to be brand new.  It's a Goodyear Wrangler on the perfect factory silver steel wheel.  I don't see any signs that this wheel was ever put into service. 

Yes, I have two sets of keys for it.

No, to the best of my knowledge and all of the information I have on this truck it has never been smoked in. 

No, I don't take payments. The truck and all associated documents, title, etc. will be released once valid payment clears. 

Correct, the trucks been in Colorado since new. 

 

Any other questions just ask. 

 

Thx

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.

Chevy Volt replacement battery cost varies wildly, up to $34,000

Fri, Jan 10 2014

There's a growing hubbub in the plug-in vehicle community over what looks like some ridiculously cheap replacement batteries for the Chevrolet Volt going up for sale. GM Parts Online, for example, is selling a replacement Volt battery with an MSRP of $2,994.64 but, with an online discount, the price comes down to $2,305.88. For the 16-kWh pack in the 2012 Volt, that comes to a very low $144.11 per kilowatt hour (kWH). But is it a real deal? How can it be, when a Chevy dealer may quote you a price of up to $34,000 to replace the pack? For a 16-kWh Volt pack, $2,305.88 comes to a very low $144.11 per kWh. But is it a real deal? Battery packs in alternative propulsion vehicles are usually priced by the kWh and, historically, they've been thought to be in the range of $500-per-kWh for OEM offerings. Since automakers are understandably secretive about their costs, we still don't know what the real number is today, but we do know it varies by automaker. Tesla, for example, has said it pays less than $200-per-kWH at the cell level but, of course, a constructed pack would be more. Whatever is going on, li-ion battery prices are trending downward. So, $144.11 certainly sounds great, but what's the story here? Kevin Kelly, manager of electrification technology communications for General Motors, reminded AutoblogGreen that GM Parts Online is not the official GM parts website and that, "the costs indicated on the site are not what we would charge our dealers or owners for a replacement battery. There would be no cost to the Volt owner if their battery needs replacement or repair while the battery is under the eight year/100,000 mile limited warranty coverage provided by Chevrolet." A single price tag also can't be accurate for everyone, Kelly said. "If the customer needs to have their battery repaired beyond the warranty, the cost to them would vary depending on what needs to be replaced or repaired (i.e. number of modules, which specific internal components need replacement, etc.)." he said. "So, it's hard for us to tell you exactly what the cost would be to the customer because it varies depending on what might need to be repaired/replaced. As a result, the core charge would vary." But, is the $2,300 price even accurate for anyone? Thanks to a reader comment, we see that this similar item on New GM Parts makes it look like the lithium-ion modules that Kelly mentioned – where a lot of the expensive bits are – are not included.
