Park City, Utah, United States

You are looking at most likely the finest 1969 Blazer left in this world.  This is the first year of this body style and there were only 4,935 made.  In 1970-1972 there were more than 11,000 of each model year made.  This is a very rare year. I am the third owner of this truck.  I purchased it from the original owners daughter who had it completely restored after receiving it from her father who bought it new.  It spent all of its life in southern Utah which is a very dry climate.  The detail that went into the restoration is unbelievable.  The body was completely removed from the frame and all rust or questionable metal was removed or replaced.  As you can see from the pictures, the paint work inside and out is virtually flawless.  All of the chrome is either new or re-chromed.  The top was painted to match the body and has new glass.  It is really like a new truck.  With regard to the drive train, the motor was removed and replaced with a new 400 Chevrolet that has less than 3,000 miles on it.  It is matched with a new manual 4 speed transmission with the same mileage.  The drive train has all been rebuilt as well.  The interior has been totally restored.  That means new seats and carpet.  The dash is perfect and everything works.  It just passed a safely inspection.  If you are looking for a nearly perfect 1969 Blazer, I don't think a nicer one exists.  Please feel free to call me personally and I will be happy to answer any questions that you have.  My cell phone number is 801-864-0550.  The vehicle has just been listed locally and I reserve the right to remove it from the auction prior to the end of the listing.  I hope that you enjoy the pictures because it really looks that good in person.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
