Full Size Blazer, Parts Truck, Project Truck, 4x4, Removable Top, 350 Not 305 on 2040-cars
Union, Maine, United States
Hello to all ebayers, PLEASE READ.....
.....up for your consideration and/or bid is my other 1984
Chevrolet Blazer. This is the next to the last generation of the FULL
SIZE Blazer that only came in 2 doors long before the term SUV was
common place. The motor is a 1973 Chevrolet 350 Monte Carlo engine that runs good, low mileage of approximately 15,000 miles on rebuilt motor in (1995) and of course burns no oil. Could probably use a tune up from sitting in storage and being started/ used little over the years. The transmission and rear-end (differential) are all original and have never been rebuilt or out of the Blazer. I've
owned the Blazer
since 1998 and purchased it for a daily driver for the winter months here in Maine. In 2003 I purchased a new Edellebrock carburetor, also new then,...a water pump, fuel pump, alternator, inner-liners, front fenders, doors, tail gate, dual exhaust, dual front shocks,(rare) replaced rubber cab mounts along with the bolts and washers, inner and outer rockers. The Blazer would make a great "fixer-upper", restoration project or an
excellent parts Blazer, should you need Blazer parts or a woods "buggie". The frame is very solid and in excellent condition with just surface rust, no bad spots or structural issues of any kind. The
last time I started the Blazer
was early July of this year,...2014. The motor oil and
antifreeze are clean and at the full level with no leaks. The running gear all works fine when parked, and the
Blazer currently moves around with ease on a fully
free-rolling chassis. All the tires are 31" X 10.5" X 15,...hold air and stay up with no
problem. The exterior sheet metal all around is pretty decent,
there are some small areas of surface rust "here and there",...the worst sheet
metal rust is the floor braces (see pictures) along with some rust threw of the rear cargo floor area, which is very
much typical of all full size Blazers used in winter-salt/
calcium-chloride regions of the country. The body mount braces up front are in bad condition and allowed the body to start dropping. The Blazer has the complete set
of original rally rims, trim rings and center caps (less one center cap missing on drivers side front)
which are increasingly hard to come by as of late
years. I've stated all that I know about this Blazer as factual as possible. Due to the age
and amount of sitting for years, this Blazer does not come with any guarantees
or warranties expressed or implied and is sold as is where is. For
the winning bidder I offer FREE delivery
BUT only if you are local and/ or up to only 20 miles away. If you are
21-100
miles from the Blazer I offer delivery for a fee of $1.00 per mile. I do
not
offer any delivery options over 100 miles and I certainly do not offer
any long
haul options from state to state either. Any winning bidder that is in
the
"over 100 mile category" it is up to you to make shipping
arrangements and of course all transportation and shipping costs are the
expense of you...(the winning high bidder). At my discretion, I may
extend the
free delivery from 21-100 miles if the Blazer reaches a dollar amount I
deem
acceptable. Should you use your own trailer/equipment to pickup the Blazer,...I offer FREE loading assistance to you with my Rollback and
equipment,...or I'll assist the
carrier of your choice (should you hire one),...also FREE of charge. PLEASE NOTE;...the state of Maine
does not/will not issue a title for ANY automobile/vehicle of 1995 and prior. I
do not have a title and the Blazer comes with a bill-of-sale as ownership.
ADDITIONAL NOTE;...some states will not accept a bill-of-sale as ownership of a
vehicle,...please check with your individual state. FOR THOSE PERSPECTIVE
BIDDERS THAT FIT INTO THIS LAST CATEGORY,...please let me know and I can
contact the state of Maine and they will issue a legal document so that you can
take this paperwork to YOUR state DMV you reside in and YOUR STATE will issue
you a new title in your state. I've done
this may of times before and to my knowledge this is the only perfectly legal
way for bidders from title-demanding states to get a title for a vehicle from a
non-title issuing state. As always,...UNDERCARRIAGE PICTURES are always posted for perspective bidders/ buyers!!! I believe the pictures speak for them self, and what
doesn't I've included in the description,........if you feel I have missed
anything or you have any questions what so ever, please feel free to send me an
email and I'll answer the question(s) asap. Upon the completion of the auction
I ask that the winning bidder to commit to the transaction with payment in the
form of a $200.00 deposit within 48 hours. I also ask that the high bidder
follow-up with full payment in 7 days,
or contact me for additional time if needed. If you have no intent of following threw with
the complete payment of the auction item, please just don't bid and waste
everyone's time playing games,...any non paying bidders will be reported to
both ebay and all 3 major credit reporting agency's. ********KEEP WATCH,...a lot of interesting older ANTIQUE/CLASSIC AUTOS (1949-1985) better shape than this coming in the next several weeks/months,...ALL of which will start with a modest starting price w/NO RESERVE!!!******** .....thanks for looking, Bob. |

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28
Mon, Jan 12 2015Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Auto Show Notebook: Legendary Continental name inspired Lincoln's designers
Thu, Apr 2 2015What's in a name? A lot for the Continental concept, and it gave Lincoln designers a sense of purpose as they styled the brand's upcoming flagship sedan. "The moment that we told them, it was amazing," Lincoln president Kumar Galhotra said. "They totally got it." "It" is cutting-edge technology wrapped in stately, large-sedan design. It's a nod to Lincoln's storied past, but a signpost for where the brand is heading. Though the Continental name dates to the late 1930s, Lincoln designers avoided making the concept overtly retro. "You can't let it pull yourself back too far in history, but you've got to design a car that lives up to the name," Galhotra said. Speaking to Autoblog on the floor of the New York Auto Show where the Continental formally debuted Wednesday, the Lincoln president reiterated that the car is on track to launch in 2016. It will compete against the Audi A6, Lexus GS, BMW 5 Series and other large luxury sedans. After its debut, the concept in New York will fly to China – another critical market for Lincoln – for display there. It will be replaced in New York by a prototype without an interior. The Continental is the latest high profile play by Lincoln to raise its image with consumers, who have either ignored or forgotten about it amid steep competition in the luxury sector from German and Japanese brands and a potentially resilient Cadillac. Lincoln sales are essentially flat compared with 2014 through the first quarter of this year, with total volume of 21,478 units. The middling start to 2015 comes on the heels of nearly 16-percent sales growth last year spurred by the launch of the MKC and the prominent signing of Matthew McConaughey to star in Lincoln advertisements. Other News, Notes & Quotes Speaking of names, Chevrolet did its homework before deciding to proceed with "Malibu" for its new generation of midsize cars. "We went out and researched it," said Alan Batey, president of General Motors North America. "People actually like the name 'Malibu,'" he said. Admittedly, the current Malibu has struggled in the marketplace against entrenched competitors, Batey said, but he's optimistic its awareness and historical value are assets to the dramatically redesigned sedan."The name's strong," he said. Meanwhile, in other Chevy news, the brand kicked off a new marketing campaign, "Real People, Not Actors" Wednesday. It will show consumers interacting with Chevys and their spontaneous reactions to the vehicles.
Travis Kvapil tells Twitter his Sprint Cup car was stolen
Fri, Feb 27 2015There's a bizarre story coming out of Atlanta today, as NASCAR racer Travis Kvapil is reporting that his Sprint Cup Car was stolen from a lot at the Drury Inn in Morrow, GA. Kvapil announced the theft, which included the black pickup that was hauling the trailer and the #44 Chevrolet SS Sprint Cup Car – shown above, with driver JJ Yeley at the wheel – on Twitter. According to Kvapil, the car wasn't going to be ready for the Thursday test session at Atlanta Motor Speedway, although forecasts of snow forced the team to dispatch their main trailer and tools to the track ahead of the car, which left for Atlanta later yesterday. According to ESPN, police in Morrow have video of the "incident," which happened at 5:34 AM Friday, with police investigating it as as criminal in nature. "Sometimes what happens when thieves see trailers, they might just assume there's something in the trailer they can go off and sell," Sgt. Larry Oglesby, of the Morrow PD, told USA Today. "Sometimes when things like this occur, they will drop off the items in a parking lot somewhere – like a Walmart parking lot – once they realize what they have." "All we know is it was a silver jeep," team owner John Cohen told USA Today. "One guy got out and they pulled off together." Earlier, Cohen told ESPN that the theft will force the team out of this weekend's race at the Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500, at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Kvapil, meanwhile, has taken to Twitter to appeal to his followers to be on the lookout for the truck, trailer and race car. Here's hoping it turns up all together. Check out the driver's tweets, below. Wow. Anyone near Atlanta find my stolen Cup car let me know! Unreal - Travis Kvapil (@TravisKvapil) February 27, 2015 I bet when whoever has it, opens the trailer and is going to be like 'oh snap' - Travis Kvapil (@TravisKvapil) February 27, 2015 Ok, to clarify. @Teamxtreme44 transporter is @amsupdates.
