1990 Chevrolet Silverado K5 Blazer

1990 Blazer K5 V8 5.7 TBI Engine, with 700r4 Transmission.  The truck has 52k miles and drives like it.  The truck is solid with no Rust.  The truck was bough from some local winter visitors a little over 2 years ago.  The truck was like most cars that have been in Arizona for a while the paint was completely faded and I started off with a fresh paint job.  The truck was originally the charcoal gray, I decided to add silver to make it stand out. I decided to go with a two tone and I get a lot of compliments from it.   The paint job was done approximately December 2012 and still looks like it was done yesterday!  The undercarriage was coated in chassis paint to make look new again. 

There is an endless amount of accessory items that have been replaced as most of what was installed in the truck was either dry rotted or just completely faded or I just wanted to make it look new again.  The interior was in good shape but decided to get a new carpet, and redo the seats and headliner/visors to make it look new again as the old carpet and seats were faded and had some stains.  I have done my very best to get my mechanic to correct any oil leaks it had.  As of right now I haven't noticed any oil leaks.

The pictures should speak for themselves.  I would have no problem driving this truck anywhere, it has low miles and has brand new tires that still have nubs on them.  The jack and handle and windshield wipers are not in the pictures but I do have them and will install them before the truck sells.  We get about 1/2 inch of rain per year so the chances of needing the wipers in Yuma are slim to none so when the truck was painted I didn't put them back on.

The truck has stock cruise control, A/C and it all works! Even the stereo is original, it has never been cut and wiring is still as original and stock as it can be.   I have had my fun with it driving it (drove very little) and restoring it.. I actually rarely even drive it therefore I'm deciding to free up some space in the garage and add some money back into the savings account by selling some of my toys that I don't play much with. 

Here is a list of some new parts within the last year:
Windshield
Rear Glass
Door Weather Strip
Door Glass Weather Strip
Camper shell Weather Strip
Door Panel Aluminum Inserts
Door Carpet Kit
Carpet Kit
Seat Upholstery
Dome Lens
Silverado Shell Emblems
Side Moldings
Wheel Arch Moldings
Rear Quarter Panels (Interior Upholstery)
BF Goodrich 32x11.50x15 Tires x 4
Fuel Pump
Rally Center Caps
Sill Plates
Spark Plugs
Spark Plug Wires
Distributor Cap/Rotor
Oil Change on 5/20- approximately 100 miles since last oil change
Air Filter
Gasoline Filter
Windshield Wipers
A/C 134 Conversion
Serpentine Belt
Battery
Differential Oil Change
Valve Cover Gaskets
Valve Stem Seals


The not so good:
Driver Door window goes up and down like it should but the Passenger Door Window and Rear window are slow to go up and down but DO go up and down, I have not replaced those window motors (this was in my list to do next but never bothered me enough to change them).   The truck only has speakers in the dash.  When i had the rear quarter panels done I didn't install speakers as I wanted to do a custom stereo system.  The interior quarter panels are a blank canvas to add the speakers and stereo system of your choice.  Also, it is barely noticeable in the pictures but the rear bumper does have some minor dents in it, I never considered replacing because it is barely noticeable.  The dash pad does have a couple hair line cracks as most trucks this age do. 




PLEASE NOTE: There is a mileage discrepancy in the CarFax due to the DMV assuming it had 152k miles instead of the 52k miles it actually has.  The speedometer goes up to 6 digits.  I have an appointment with the DMV this week to fix this issue, they have to do an inspection and I have to provide the documentation that shows the actual mileage. The Carfax clearly shows that the truck only has 52k+ miles as well as the history that was given to me when i purchased it.  I have worked on the truck for the last 2 years but have driven it very very little.  Maybe about 300-400 miles total. (I didn't drive it much to not add miles to it).  I drove it locally to a car meets and such but most of the time I transported the truck on a flatbed to keep the miles low.


I am not a mechanic, please come and inspect the truck, ask for more pictures or simply send me an email with whatever questions you might have.  Please email me any questions you might have and I will try to respond promptly. 

Please note that the deposit is NON-REFUNDABLE.  Please ONLY bid if you intend to buy.

Thanks again and happy bidding!

2016 Chevrolet Malibu First Drive [w/video]

Mon, Dec 7 2015

You have to appreciate honesty in this business. When a car company admits its offering in a segment isn't up to the task, it catches you by surprise. The surprisingly open Chevy reps stopped short of saying that making the last Malibu smaller was a mistake, but given that the righting of the ship included a lengthening of this new model, it was certainly implied. The eighth-generation Malibu lasted only three years, with a major update coming just one year in to try and fix some of the bigger concerns. The goal for the 2016 Malibu wasn't to make a competent product better, it was to make an okay one good again. That started with a stretch. The Malibu is long again, a big car that meets America's warped idea of a midsized car. Because of this, the Malibu's dimensions sidle up to the Impala's. In fact, it's within a fraction of an inch of the Impala's wheelbase measurement, and sits right between the last Malibu and the Impala in terms of EPA passenger volume. The back seat gets the most of the payoff, bringing it back into competition with other midsized counterparts. The Malibu is now one of the longest in the segment, but also among, if not the, lightest. The 2016 model is claimed to be about 300 pounds lighter than its dimensionally challenged predecessor. While most new models tend to choose between lighter or larger these days, Chevy managed not-insignificant improvements to both. Styling doo-dads no longer separate the trim levels, it's the features inside that fuel the upsell. Some of that weight came out of the front end. The aluminum hood is lighter than before, and we'd wager that's because it stops very short of the leading edge of the car. Instead, the nose is enshrouded in a big plastic fascia, which has to be an advantage at the scales but creates a somewhat unfinished look. That's amplified by the fact that everything ahead of the hood is a bit busy, and actually surprisingly aggressive, in contrast to the rest of the design. The new Cruze, with its cowl-to-grille hood, wears a more cohesive new-Chevy front end. The styling adopts the, dare we say it, coupe-like look of many (most?) new family sedans. The profile is attractive enough but almost generic now since the Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, and others have already moved in this direction. The rear-end styling is inoffensive, almost original Mercedes CLS meets current Impala.

2018 Hyundai Accent vs subcompact sedans: How it compares on paper

Fri, Sep 29 2017

Hyundai first revealed the new 2018 Hyundai Accent a few months ago, but that debut was in Canada for the Canadian-market car. We didn't get our look at the U.S. version until just recently, which is when we also finally got plenty of specifications on the little car. So as we did with the Genesis G70, we've brought you a breakdown of the Accent's specs and some of the segment's best and most popular: the Nissan Versa, Kia Rio, Chevrolet Sonic and Toyota Yaris iA. Before we get to the chart, let's give you a quick reintroduction to the 2018 Accent. The subcompact is completely new this year, and under the hood is again a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. It makes 7 fewer horsepower and 4 fewer pound-feet of torque than the outgoing model with totals of 130 horsepower and 119 pound-feet. This drop in power probably won't be noticeable, though. It's also available with either a manual or automatic transmission, both featuring six speeds. Fuel economy hasn't been announced, but the Rio's numbers below are probably a good indicator as they share powertrains. The one thing that isn't available with an Accent is a hatchback. According to Autoweek, the hatchback was canned with the assumption that hatch buyers would simply purchase an example of the upcoming Kona crossover. But if you want a traditional subcompact hatch from South Korea, Kia is happy to oblige, as the Rio is still available as a hatchback. Learning that the Kona may have killed the Accent hatch causes us to wonder if Kia brought the Rio hatch to the U.S. because it wasn't planning on offering the Stonic.

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.
