1973 Chevy K5 Blazer Convertable on 2040-cars
Chenoa, Illinois, United States
|
Up for bid is my 1973 Chevy K5 Blazer 4x4. It has the original 350 in it and a turbo 350 trans. It has an awesome sounding exhaust with long tube headers that was custom made for this truck. I removed the old points ignition system and installed a new MSD HEI distributor. I installed a 4'' rough country suspension lift and new 35'' Cooper Discoverer STT tires. Before I bought it, the transmission was rebuilt along with the carb. The front drive shaft was removed when I got the truck and since I have never needed the four wheel drive I never put one in it. I will include one with the sale to go in it. Somewhere along the road the a/c was removed, the brackets and wiring are all still there just no compressor or lines. The interior has been completely redone with new carpet, reupholstered seats, and sound mat installed underneath the carpet. This is a very original truck with only one repaint. It's hard for me to explain how solid this truck is. Everything on the bottom side is still painted black with no rust what so ever. I tried to show in one picture a few small pin holes in the bottom of the passenger fender. The drivers side fender is dented on the bottom from a tire blowing out. The paint job is fair, Its by no means a show paint job, but its really shiny and still looks good. It has dents here and there nothing major or out of the ordinary for a 73. When rolling up the back window you must be careful because it likes to come off the track. The seals on the top could be replaced but I didn't worry about it cause I didn't drive it much with the top on it. The engine has never been removed to my knowledge. It runs AWESOME I would not be afraid to take it anywhere. It was bought new and spent most of its life in Tuscon, Arizona. It is rock solid!! To my knowledge I am only the fourth owner of this truck. I purchased it from a guy in Chicago fall of 2011, he bought if from the second owner in Arizona and had it shipped to Chicago. The guy I bought it from never even had the top on it. It has seen no rain since he bought it. I looked long and hard before I found this one. They only made this style K5 blazer with the full removable top 73,74, and 75. If you have any questions at all or would like to come see it please call 815-867-0116.

Sunday Drive: A tale of old favorites and upcoming challengers
Sun, Oct 8 2017Sedans and crossovers dominated the attention of our readers last week, led by the completely redesigned 2018 Honda Accord. It's the Japanese automaker's flagship, and people are seriously interested in finding out how good the latest Accord is. So interested, in fact, that no other single story came close to the brand-new Accord in Autoblog reader interest. Moving down the list we find the equally new 2018 Buick Enclave. The three-row crossover has a lot to offer a family, especially one looking for a nice, quiet ride. If you're looking for the exact opposite of nice and quiet, but still want enough room for you and your significant others, the Subaru WRX that we tested last week may be the perfect ride for you. Or, if you just want to drive fast and aren't at all worried about space, there's the Camaro SS. See? We offer something for everybody. From there, we look to the future. Who isn't interested in seeing the first fully electric vehicle from Porsche? And who isn't intrigued to see the Mission E testing alongside a gaggle of Teslas? A brand-new Jeep is always a big deal, especially when it's the revival of a classic nameplate like the Grand Wagoneer. And finally, we have something completely different: the Rezvani Tank. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Honda Accord First Drive | Feels like home again 2018 Buick Enclave First Drive Review | Fortress of quietude 2018 Subaru WRX Drivers' Notes | Turbo traditionalist 2018 Chevy Camaro SS Drivers' Notes | Demonstrative power, middling interior Porsche Mission E caught testing against Teslas Jeep three-row SUV caught on public roads — Grand Wagoneer, perhaps?

How a Texas Hyundai dealer became the Chevy SSR king
Tue, Apr 21 2015The SSR isn't one of the most appreciated vehicles in Chevy's long history. With a style amalgamating the look of a vintage hotrod, convertible and a pickup, it's really serving a niche market right from the start. However, a Hyundai dealer in Texas has turned selling the cult models into a booming business and has become the de facto king of the quirky truck. According to Automotive News, Paul Peebles runs North Freeway Hyundai in Spring, TX, but he's better known in the Chevy SSR community the premiere seller of the weird model through his used car network. The odd venture started in 2010 when Peebles wanted to boost his pre-owned business and bought several sporty vehicles. Among them were five SSRs, and he threw a cookout for owners to get the word out. Things just ballooned from there. Since then, Peebles' used car dealer has had a hand in 447 SSR transactions, and some of those are the same truck coming back to sell again. With just over 24,000 of them out there, that works about to two percent of the model's production moving through just one business. The dealership also sponsors an SSR owners' forum online. Being a major broker for a niche model also means that Peebles often gets rare examples of the SSR, including some of the Indianapolis 500 pace car versions, according to Automotive News. We even saw a bizarre one last year when the business put this shark-inspired truck on eBay Motors. The whole thing also works out well for Peebles' Hyundai business. Specializing in SSRs brings other performance models in as trade-ins, and they can draw folks to the lot to check out the collection. Then, maybe visitors can take a look at a Sonata, too.
