1990 K5 BLAZER

---- One of the last solid front axle Chevy built ----

 

UP FOR BIDS IS MY PERSONALLY OWNED 1990 CHEVY K5 BLAZER. LOOKING FOR A NEW HOME, THIS TRUCK DOES NOT NEED ANY MAJOR CHANGES TO MAKE IT PERFECT. SINCE NEW IT HAS HAD ONE REPAINT. THERE WERE ONLY A FEW AREAS OF PIN HOLE ROT ON THE FRONT FENDERS, QUARTERS, AND ROCKER PANELS. I DESIDED RATHER THAN METAL PATCHING THESE AREAS, TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE PANELS BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT ASTRONOMICALLY EXPENSIVE FOR THIS ERA TRUCK. WITH THAT BEING SAID, NEW FULL QUARTER PANELS, FENDERS, AND ROCKER PANELS WERE REPLACED. THE DOORS AND TAILGATE ARE ROT FREE. THE SAME WENT FOR THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER FRONT FLOORS. WITH FEW AREAS HAVING PIN HOLES, I HAD NEW  PANS WELDED IN.

THE INTERIOR IS NICE. ALL ORIGINAL SEATS, SIDE PANELS, DOOR PANELS, CARPET AND DASH. THE DASH HAS TWO CRACKS IN THE NORMAL SPOTS WHERE THEY ALL CRACK. THE HEADLINER IS NEW.

MECHANICALLY SOUND, THE (5.7) 350 EFI ENGINE HAS LESS THAN 8,000 MILES (CRATE ENGINE). THE TRANSMISSION WAS REBUILT AT THE SAME TIME OF ENGINE SWAP. THE AXLES HAVE THE FACTORY 3;73 GEARS. THE FRONT AXLE HAS ALL NEW BARRINGS AND UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS. THE SUSPENSION IS BRAND NEW  WITH A COMPLETE 6 INCH LIFT BY ROUGH COUNTRY SUSPENSION WHICH INCLUDES ALL FOUR ARCHED SPRINGS, NEW SHOCKS, U-BOLTS, HARDWARE, STREERING ARM, FRONT SWAY BAR DROP BRACKETS, BRAKE LINE RELOCATION KIT, A 2" TRANSFER CASE DROP KIT, AND NEW FRONT DRIVE SHAFT.

WHEELS AND TIRES ARE NEW. EVERYONE HAS BLACK OR CHROME WHEELS, I DESIDED TO GO COLOR COAT TO THE TRUCK. NOT WAGON WHEELS BUT THEY ARE STEEL 15X10'S. THE TIRES ARE ALSO BRAND NEW WITH UNDER 400 MILES ON THEM. (THE KNOBS STILL HAVE THE NEW NUBS ON THEM). 36X12.5/15 SUPER SWAMPER TLS RADIALS THAT HUM NICE AND DRIVE SMOOTH EVEN AT SPEED OF 60MPH. (NOT CHEAP $$ TIRES).

EVERYTHING ON THE TRUCK WORKS AS FAR AS POWER WINDOWS, POWER DOOR LOCKS, LIGHTS IN AND OUT, THE FACTORY GUAGES, WIPERS, HEAT, AND A/C. IT HAS TILT WHEEL, CRUISE, AND AFTER MARKET DETACHABLE FACE RADIO WITH CD PLAYER, AND NEW SPEAKERS. THE ORIGINAL SPARE IS MOUNTED INSIDE, WINDSHIELD IS NEW, CLASS 3 HITCH, NEW NERF STEP BARS, AND NEW HARDWARE IN THE TAILGATE AS WELL. THE CHROME ON THE TRUCK IS VERY RESPECTABLE, BUT NOT SHOW QUALITY. THE BUMPERS ARE THE ORIGINALS.

THIS TRUCK IS A VERY FUN RIDE. I GET MANY COMPLIMENTS ON IT AT LOCAL CRUISE NIGHTS AS WELL AS ON THE ROAD. IT TURNS HEADS EVERY TIME. ITS NOT A SHOW PIECE, BUT AT THE SAME TIME NEVER BEEN MUDDED.

I HAVE SET THE RESERVE AT A REASONABLE PRICE. YOU CANNOT BUILD THIS TRUCK FOR THE AMOUNT OF $$$CASH$$$ I HAVE INVESTED.MY LOSS WITH SOMEONES DEAL OF THE YEAR. SO, HOPING TO FIND A NEW HOME, HAPPY BIDDING!!!

Before placing any bids, feel free to come and inspect the vehicle in person  or have someone come to inspect it for you if you wish. This vehicle will be sold is as is , where is condition, because it is privately owned, and has no waranty.

GM trucks get hybrid versions, but you'll probably never see one

Thu, Feb 25 2016

A few years ago, General Motors sold hybrid versions of its Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups. They weren't very good, using GM's old two-mode hybrid system that resulted in only negligible fuel economy gains. But GM's trying again, launching eAssist models of the 2016 Silverado and Sierra that are said to offer 2-mpg improvements in city, highway, and combined fuel economy ratings. Problem is, you probably won't be able to get one. Only 700 eAssist trucks will be made for the 2016 model year – 500 Silverados and 200 Sierras. When you consider that GM moved 824,683 examples of its light-duty pickups in 2015, this small run represents 0.08-percent of all Silverado/Sierra production, and GM says it "will monitor the market closely ... and adjust as appropriate moving forward." But that's not the only limitation. The eAssist trucks will only be sold through California dealers. For the Silverado, eAssist can only be optioned on the 1500 Crew Cab 1LT 2WD model, and for the Sierra, the fuel-saving technology is solely available on the 1500 SLT Crew Cab 2WD model with the SLT Premium Plus package. Granted, in terms of the Sierra, that means you get niceties like LED headlights and taillights, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bose premium audio, heated seats and steering wheel, lane keep assist, and more. In the trucks, eAssist combines a small electric motor and 0.45-kWh battery pack with the pickups' 5.3-liter V8. GM estimates total output of 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque – no more horsepower than the non-eAssist trucks, but three more pound-feet of torque. GM says the eAssist trucks can tow up to 9,400 pounds, and the battery only adds 100 pounds to the trucks' weight. The electric motor provides 13 hp and 44 lb-ft of torque for a boost of acceleration off the line, or during passing. It also allows the engine to run in four-cylinder mode for longer periods of time. eAssist uses regenerative braking to help power onboard electrical systems, and adds start/stop to the powertrain. Finally, the so-equipped trucks have a six-percent improvement in aerodynamics, thanks to a soft tonneau cover and active grille shutters in the front fascia. Great news is, the eAssist option is relatively inexpensive, only costing $500. But good luck getting your hands on one.

Two More Recalls Push GM Total To 4.8 Million In A Month

Mon, Mar 31 2014

General Motors announced two more recalls late Friday, bringing to 4.8 million the number of cars, trucks and SUVs the automaker has called back for repairs in the past month. The string of recalls, topped by an ignition switch problem in compact cars now linked to 13 crash deaths, has embarrassed the company and sidetracked its new CEO, who started work just over two months ago. GM has admitted knowing about the switch problem a decade ago, yet it didn't recall any cars until February. The recall delay has brought two congressional investigations and probes by the Justice Department and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Late Friday night, GM announced it would recall 490,000 late-model pickup trucks and SUVs because transmission oil cooling lines weren't secured properly in their fittings. Transmission oil can leak from a fitting and hit hot surfaces, causing fires, the company said in a statement. GM said it knows of three fires and no injuries. The recall affects Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks from the 2014 model year, as well as 2015 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe SUVs and the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL SUVs. All have six-speed automatic transmissions. The Silverado is GM's top-selling vehicle and an important profit center for the company. The GMC Sierra also is among GM's top sellers. Dealers will inspect the transmission oil cooling line fittings and make sure they're securely seated, at no cost to owners. Also Friday night, GM announced the recall of 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars because the right front axle shaft can fracture and separate while being driven. The recall affects cars from the 2013 and 2014 model years equipped with 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engines. If a shaft fractures, the wheels would lose power without warning and the cars would coast to a stop. GM says it has warranty reports of several dozen shaft fractures. It is not aware of any crashes or injuries. Dealers will replace the shafts free of charge. The recall allows dealers to resume selling affected Cruzes. GM issued a stop sale order on the cars Thursday night. The recall also covers about 2,500 replacement shafts used to fix manual transmission Cruzes that were recalled last September. In all, GM has recalled 4.8 million vehicles since last month, two million more than the company sold last year in the U.S.

Recharge Wrap-up: EV torque secrets, UC Davis maps future of biofuels

Fri, Jul 25 2014

A UC Davis white paper maps out "Three Routes Forward for Biofuels," balancing investment risk with carbon benefits. The first option is "incremental," in which we tinker with the existing biofuel manufacturing infrastructure for small improvements over time. The "transitional" plan suggests integrating cellulosic production and other innovations with existing operations. The third route, called "leapfrogging," would mean building refineries based on new technology such as cellulosic and algae-based biofuels. The paper suggests ways the US could use these three routes together in different areas, and predicts the payoffs in terms of carbon emissions could be significant if the right people are willing to risk the capital. After all, financial advisers are always telling investors to diversify their portfolios to manage risk and rewards in the same way. Read more over at the UC Davis Institute of Transportation Studies. The Formula E Long Beach ePrix will offer free admission. The seventh round of the inaugural all-electric race season, which was moved from Los Angeles to the streets of Long Beach, will offer fans free grandstand and general admission. The race, which takes place on April 5, 2015, will use a 1.6-mile portion of IndyCar's Grand Prix of Long Beach. Read more at LA Times. Polaris is now offering its 2015 GEM electric vehicles, including the new street-legal eM1400 LSV. The passenger and utility vehicles come in two- to six-passenger configurations, many of which are street legal on roads with posted speed limits of up to 35 miles per hour. The eM1400 LSV utility vehicle seats two, offers 1,250 pounds of payload, 1,250 pounds of towing capacity, a top speed of 25 mph and a range of up to 45 miles. Its on-board charger plugs into any standard 110-volt outlet. Read more at Hybrid Cars and check out all the different configurations yourself at the Polaris website. In EVs, more torque does not always equal faster. Green Car Reports found this out when driving the Fiat 500e (with 147 pound-feet) against the similarly weighted Chevrolet Spark EV (with 400 pound-feet). The secret is, at least in part, in the gearing. The Fiat has a 9.6:1 reduction gear, making it quicker at lower speeds despite having far less available torque, while the Chevy uses a 3:1 ratio. The trade-off though, is in top speed. Furthermore, Chevy electronically limits the torque delivery at low speeds, as 400 pound-feet is a lot of launch for the little Spark EV to handle.
