 I bought this truck last year with the intention of turning it into a restomod with new running gear and updates, but the guy that builds my custom vehicles talked me out of using this Blazer because it is in such good condition, and very original.  It would have been a shame to cut it up.  In addition to being a factory A/C Blazer, it also has a rare working factory tachometer in the center of the gauge cluster.   We purchased a different Blazer for my project that is almost complete, and I now need to make room in the garage.  The previous owner had rebuilt the brakes, installed new 33" Toyo MT tires, partially installed a Painless Wiring Harness, had headers and new exhaust installed, and repainted the body.  There was no rust as this was an Arizona vehicle, and I have photos to document the integrity and straightness of the body before paint.  The underside of the tub was painted with POR15 to keep the body rust free.  A larger gas tank is installed that looks like a Hickey product to me.  Im not sure of the capacity. 

Since I cant help myself, even though I knew I wouldn't be keeping this Blazer, we went ahead and took care of anything that would affect the reliability of the truck, as well as cleaning up the cosmetics.  The wiring was completed, and we addressed the sloppiness in the steering.  The motor fires up right away everytime, and everything works great.  I wouldn't hesitate to drive this truck anywhere.  When I purchased this truck we filled the bed with extra parts, both original and aftermarket that will come with this Blazer. 

This Blazer is in great condition for a driver, but it nowhere near a show truck.  I will try to list every deficiency that I can in order to present this vehicle in the truest light possible. 

- The paint is pretty and shiny, but it is what can be referred to as a 10 foot paint job.  It looks great from 10 feet away, but any closer and you can see the deformities that are present including small rock chips, small scratches, and crazing where holes were filled in.  Perfect paint for a driver quality vehicle because it looks nice, but your eyes don't tear up if you get a scratch on it.

-The grille surround could use a polishing, and there is small dent in the lower corner.

-The front bumper is pushed up slightly on the passenger side.

-The A/C compressor and related parts were sold by the previous owner.

-New fuel filler doors were installed in the body before paint, but the filler neck has not been attached to the new door.

-The fuel gauge works but it is rotated slightly to the right, so the reading is not accurate.

-The only leak is the transfer case.  I have the gasket kit, but I never got around to installing it.

-The blazer comes with a double wall hard top in decent condition.  The hatch needs to be repaired where one hinge attaches, and the coating put on by the previous owner should be stripped and repainted.  All hardware is there and it would be an easy fix.

That is all I can come up with that needs attention, this really is a solid truck.  If I find anything else I will add to the listing.


A $500 non-refundable deposit via PayPal is required within 48 hours of winning the auction. The balance can be paid by PayPal or cashier’s check, and must be received within 7 days of winning the auction.

These are the 'Greenest' and 'Meanest' cars in 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

As has become tradition, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) has come up with a ranking of what it refers to as the "greenest" cars of 2015, and, by way of contrast, a list of the so-called "meanest" cars, so those who value eco-friendliness over all else can choose which vehicles they should or should not consider buying. As you may expect, electric cars make up the majority of the greenest cars on the list, but, perhaps surprisingly to many, the Tesla Model S didn't make the cut. It's worth noting, too, that where the electricity an owner uses to charge their electric vehicle has a big impact on its overall environmental impact. "A car that is charged using electricity generated from natural gas or renewables is going to have significantly less impact on the environment than one charged on a coal-heavy grid," says ACEEE lead vehicle analyst Shruti Vaidyanathan. The ACEEE's list for 2015 looks very different than it did in 2014. It's an interesting collection, though – and we're sure this goes without saying, really – we'd recommend doing a bit more research into each vehicle and how it might fit into your daily life before making any purchase decisions. Click here to see the ACEEE's list of the Greenest and Meanest vehicles sold in the United States in 2015.

Porsche wins the 2015 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, Jun 14 2015

The question going into this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans was whether or not the Porsche 919 Hybrid would be able to combine its qualifying pace with race reliability. After battling neck-and-neck with Audi's R18 for most of the race, the answer is a resounding yes. Not only did Porsche drivers climb the first two spots on the podium, they did so without any major mishaps on track. This win is the first overall trophy for Porsche since 1998. Audi previously won the last five races, and 13 of the last 15. Corvette also returned to the winner's circle, with the No. 64 C7.R taking winning the GTE Pro division. The victory is the first class win for Corvette since 2011. KCMG won the LMP2 class in ninth overall. With 45 minutes to go the No. 98 Aston Martin crashed out of first place in GTE Amateur, giving the class win to SMP Racing's Ferrari and second place to the Patrick Dempsey Racing Porsche 911 RSR. For the full list of official results, click here. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. For most of the race, the battle at the top went back and forth between the two German manufacturers. An tire puncture in the No. 7 Audi gave up the lead to Porsche, and moments later a crash forced the No. 8 into the garage. But a three-minute replacement of the front and rear bodywork kept the Audi in contention. As the race wore into the night, Porsche maintained a slightly faster pace than Audi. Nick Tandy took the lead on Lap 253 early Sunday morning, and car No. 19 never gave up the top position. The win is the first for all three drivers of the No. 19 – Nico Hulkenberg, Earl Bamber, and Nick Tandy. A lap behind in second was the No. 17 Porsche. The Audis fought reliability problems late in the race but still finished third with the No. 7 R18. The GTE Pro class proved to be just as exciting as the P1 class, with a four-way battle for first after four hours into the race. As the Aston Martin cars dropped away, the lone Corvette Racing entry took over, followed by a charging AF Corse team Ferrari 458 Italia. The Corvette and Ferrari continued to trade places in the final hours until gearbox trouble forced the No. 51 Ferrari out of contention. It was eventually passed by the other AF Corse car, No. 71. Nissan experienced all the pain of a first-year effort with its front-wheel-drive GT-R LM Nismo.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
