1970 K5 BLAZER

“UP FOR AUCTION” is a 1970 CHEVROLET K5 Blazer. This is a 44 year old vehicle and it is a very reliable and desirable model for a lot of car collectors or off road enthusiasts. It has the original 307 CU engine with a two barrel carburetor and the four speed transmission The DANA 44 differentials with 3.73 GEARS and the 205 TRANSFER CASE. I’m the second owner and it shows 54,000 original miles on the speedometer and according to the previous owner, this are in fact the original miles. This vehicle was not used for a few years and it was just parked in a garage were I found it 18 years ago. This engine still has a lot of life left on it.

I had all the brakes re-done about a year ago, (drum type front and rear). It has chrome headers with a new dual exhaust system extended all the way to the rear with side exit and chrome tips. I had a 2 1/2 inches lift kit installed with all four 9000 Rancho shock absorbers. It has no AC and no PB. It does have power steering.

An AM/FM radio/cassette stereo is in place and ready to receive the speakers of your choice (no speakers). All gauges work except the amps gauge. The gauge cluster was replaced with a new unit and I think that the problem is just probably a loose connection.

The interior was fixed a little but never finished except for the seats and side door panels that were upholstered with a camouflage material. It needed a roll bar so I got one for it with a padding material around it for a better look and protection. The dashboard was also replaced and still needs carpeting, moldings and seat belts. I have the center console for it. Overall, It needs only some cosmetic touches. The wipers, heater, emergency warning lights, turn signals glove compartment glove lock assembly, and foot brake work fine. I need to mention that the outer rocker side panels on both sides had only a few rust bubbles and they didn’t need to be replaced instead they were only repaired and the floor pans, doors, window gutters, fenders, frame  and bed are free of rust and very solid. This is an Arizona truck.

. A class III hidden behind the license plate towing package with the electrical system for towing trailers with electric brakes was professionally installed for a safer towing of any kind of properly weight rated trailer.  The gas tank has a protecting plate. A  POWERFUL 12,000 Lbs. WARN winch was mounted on a specially designed steel bumper for this model and it is connected directly to a red top Optima battery.

It has the solid fiberglass double insulated top with the attachments already installed for a heavy duty luggage rack (included). All the hinges and hardware for the rear hatch work fine and are in good condition.

I tried to describe the vehicle condition to the best of my knowledge but if you have any questions just ask and I will respond as soon as I can. Thank you for bidding.

GM isn't liable for punitive damages in ignition switch cases

Wed, Nov 20 2019

NEW YORK — A federal appeals court said General Motors is not liable for punitive damages over accidents that occurred after its 2009 bankruptcy and involved vehicles it produced earlier, including vehicles with faulty ignition switches. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said on Tuesday that the automaker did not agree to contractually assume liability for punitive damages as part of its federally-backed Chapter 11 reorganization. GM filed for bankruptcy in June 2009, and its best assets were transferred to a new Detroit-based company with the same name. The other assets and many liabilities stayed with "Old GM," which is also known as Motors Liquidation Co. Tuesday's 3-0 decision may help GM reduce its ultimate exposure in nationwide litigation over defective ignition switches in several Chevrolet, Pontiac and Saturn models. It is also a defeat for drivers involved in post-bankruptcy accidents, including those who collided with older GM vehicles driven by others, as well as their law firms. The ignition switch defect could cause engine stalls and keep airbags from deploying, and has been linked to 124 deaths. A lawyer for the drivers and their law firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment. GM had no comment. Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said GM's agreement to acquire assets "free and clear" of most liabilities excused it from punitive damages claims for Old GM's conduct. He also noted that the judge who oversaw the bankruptcy concluded that the new company could not be liable for claims that the "deeply insolvent" Old GM would never have paid. The decision upheld a May 2018 ruling by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan, who oversees the ignition switch litigation. Drivers have sought a variety of damages in that litigation, including for declining resale values. GM has recalled more than 2.6 million vehicles since 2014 over ignition switch problems. It has also paid more than $2.6 billion in related penalties and settlements, including $900 million to settle a U.S. Department of Justice criminal case. The case is In re: Motors Liquidation Co, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 18-1940. Government/Legal Chevrolet Pontiac Saturn Safety gm ignition switch

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
