For sale, low mile, original, clean, dry, one-repaint survivor 1978 Chevy Blazer. I recently acquired this through a friend from the 2nd owner, who owned it for 30 years. Sold new right here in the Montana high desert, land of the sagebrush and prickly pear cactus. This was a daily driver till last year, and it is sorted and ready to go. Well cared-for vehicle owned by an older gentleman and not abused in any way. I don't think it's even been off the highway for the last 20 years. Well optioned with factory A/C, cruise, tilt wheel and power locks. Exterior: Shiny paint with no major flaws and ready to drive and enjoy. Not concours or museum quality by any means, but nice. Rig was repainted at some point and it's an average everyday main street auto body shop job. No major rust issues, there was some very minor rust repair at the time of the repaint, but we don't just don't see major rust or rot issues in this arid country- there's just no moisture. We only get 10 inches of total precipitation annually, and no salt is used on the roads. Typically the only rust seen here is where mud builds up and holds moisture, like behind rear wheels. Underside is beautiful with no rust, not even surface(and I know where to look) or any issues whatsoever. I will upload pics when I get to a hoist, but it's super clean. Only surface rust I can see at all is on the bottom of the tailgate latches, and on the steel plates behind the front wheels up in the wheel wells as shown in pics - both superficial. Glass is good except for one crack in windshield, and wheels are nice with no major curb rash, and 31" tires have good tread. Chrome is good with no pitting whatsoever, both bumpers do have a dent. Replacement bumpers are readily available from many vendors and reasonable. The top was not repainted with the vehicle and there are quite a few scratches in it. There is a hole in passenger side fender where CB antenna was. There was a set of running boards on it, so there are a few holes drilled in the bottom of the rockers. I will include the running boards if desired, they are in good condition. Overall, this truck is nice and ready to go. Interior: All original and very presentable. Driver seat has one small tear as shown. Original carpet is a bit faded but not torn up. Door panels and rear panels nice, dash has a few small cracks as shown. Short headliner piece over front seats needs to be replaced. Dash bezel has one very small corner broken off, but they are readily available and reasonable. Just about everything seems to work including power locks and rear window. Gauges all work fine except ammeter. Combination AM/FM/radio/CB works and plays all the vintage stations but the CB antenna has been removed. Overall really nice shape for a car of this age and no issues to drive and use as is. Mechanical: Starts, runs, drives out well like a little-old-man Sunday truck should. No major issues - engine runs smooth and pulls hard and trans shifts well. Oil pressure is good and runs about in the middle of the gauge rolling down the highway warm. Full time 4x4 works fine and seems tight. Recent receipts include complete carb rebuild, battery, starter, alternator, radiator hoses and brakes. No major leaks or noises or smoke (other than a puff at startup from valve seals) Only thing I can even remotely think of in the interest of full disclosure is that there is a slight rocker/valvetrain tick that can be heard by a trained ear - doesn't affect performance and there are many, many miles left in this strong 350. A/C equipment is all there and belt is on, blows fine, but not super cold so I would think a recharge might be in order. Factory cruise control equipment is all there but cruise doesn't engage, haven't looked to see if it's a fuse or what. I've put a couple hundred miles on and from what I can tell it's ready to use and enjoy. Pricing/Misc: I got a good deal on this rig and you will too. This era Blazer is very hard to find, and books a ton, but the very reasonable reserve is well under $5k for quick sale. Title is signed off by previous owner and ready for you to fill your name in as purchaser. There is a lien indicated from 1985, and lien release is attached. GOOD LUCK! Keep in mind that with all cars, THEY LOOK BETTER IN PICTURES THAN IN PERSON.

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.

Ford will be building Michigan's largest solar array at its Dearborn headquarters. With funding from DTE Energy, the solar carport will provide covered parking, as well 30 charging stations for electric vehicles. The array is expected to generate 1.13 million kWh per year for Ford's operations, and offset 794 metric tons of carbon emissions. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet announced the fuel economy for the 2015 City Express, at 25 mpg combined. The cargo van is rated at 24 mpg in the city, and 26 mpg on the highway. Chevy credits the van's inline four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission for its impressive city mileage. For its customers - which are mainly businesses - "The fuel economy of the City Express will help stretch their dollar at the pump and give them the flexibility to invest the savings back into their business," says Chevrolet's Ed Peper. The City Express starts at $22,950. Read more in the press release below. Engineers at the University of Wisconsin have developed an efficient engine that runs on a diesel-gas blend. The engine, which uses a computer to control the blend proportions, is about 15 percent more efficient than the any diesel engine according to mechanical engineering professor Rolf Reitz. The team has put the experimental reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engine in a demonstration car - a 2009 Saturn. "This vehicle can do 50 miles per gallon," says Reitz, who believes the system could be improved further. Read more at Wisconsin Public Radio. The Southeast Alternative Fuel Conference and Expo will take place in October in Raleigh, North Carolina. Held at the NC Clean Energy Technology Center from October 22-24, the event will feature a variety of exhibitors, speakers and, most importantly, alternatively powered vehicles. "The three day conference will be a one-stop shop for fleet and transportation related decision makers to learn about return on investment, efficiency and alternative transportation fuels such as biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, propane and natural gas," says Anne Tazewell of the NC Clean Energy Technology Center. If you can't make it to Raleigh for the Expo, you can still enter to win a free two-year lease of a Nissan Leaf at the Center's website. Learn more about the event in the press release, below.
