1972 Blazer Cts K5 4wd on 2040-cars
Yorba Linda, California, United States
|
**EDIT** Forgot to mention the vehicle has power steering and power brakes. The body is very straight but does have some minor dings. I cant find bondo on it at all and it does not appear to have ever in a collision. 1972 Blazer K5 CST, in very good UNRESTORED condition, especially considering the vehicle is 42 years old. Its powered by a very strong running 350 motor with turbo 350 trans. It shifts very hard without hesitation. I have been using this truck as daily driver and it is very dependable. It doesn’t leek a drop of anything!! It still has the original interior, seats, console, carpet, upholstery but it does appear to have been repainted. This truck has VERY LITTLE RUST (see photos). There is a bit in the bottom of the doors and back of front fenders but it is all minor and easily repairable. The floor pans, rockers, frame, window gutters, and bed are all SOLID! The only thing she needs mechanically is the brakes to bled as right now I can tell there’s air bubbles in the lines so you have to press the brakes harder than usual. The front brakes are disc and the rear drum. Both axels have been gone through and freshened up by UniTrax so you’re good to go there. The truck has a 6” suspension lift on it with 35” mud terrain tires, about 85% tread life left on those. Virtually everything works on the vehicle. It was recently rewired so all the lights work, even the little red 50 MPH light in the speedometer, very cool! When the truck was re-wired it was set up for electric windows should anyone decide to install them, but the original window cranks function nice and smoothly. The truck originally had AC and most of the components are still there but it is missing the compressor and 2 vents in the dash. The knob recently fell off the windshield wiper so the button needs to be reconnected to the rod but the wiper motor works great. The tail gate and lift gate both meet up very nicely however the latch is not functioning properly; I believe the rods need to be connected to the latch. The truck also has a Kenwood CD/MP3 player with 6x9 speakers. This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION so please ask questions before bidding and bid to win, I have the pink slip in hand! I also strongly recommend setting up an appointment to come view the vehicle in person and if that is not available, we can try to work out additional photos or a video. Im sure I am forgetting something so I will update the add if I think of anything. Please contact me via email or cell phone (call/txt) 714-305-1137 with your questions. The vehicle is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time!
TERMS:
THIS VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD AS IS and has been described to the best of knowledge! $500 deposit due via PayPal within 48 hours of the auction close. The remainder is due within 7 days of auction close, unless you contact me and we set up other arrangements. I am a reasonable man so just let me know if you need special arrangements.

Junkyard Gem: 1980 Chevrolet LUV Mikado
Sat, Oct 9 2021During the 1970s and into the 1980s, each member of the Detroit Big Three imported Japanese small pickups and sold them with Ford (Mazda Proceed), Dodge/Plymouth (Mitsubishi Forte), or Chevrolet (Isuzu Faster) badges here. Ford developed the Ranger and killed the Courier for 1983 (though Americans could still buy the Mazda-badged version all the way through 1993), while The General axed the LUV after the S-10 debuted in the 1982 model year. Isuzu sold the same truck as the P'up through 1987, though, and we might as well follow up our recent P'up Junkyard Gem with its LUV predecessor. LUV stood for Light Utility Vehicle, and I've managed to spot a handful in the boneyards over the years. This one now resides in a yard in northeastern Colorado. The Mikado trim package included striped seat upholstery and a sporty steering wheel, plus these cool dash badges. As far as I can tell, no LUV Mikado advertising featured any Gilbert and Sullivan tunes. This one is fairly rusty for Front Range Colorado, and it has endured a bed swap from some other small truck. The engine is the 75-horse Isuzu 1.8-liter. Members of this engine family went into everything from Chevy Chevettes to Isuzu Troopers in the United States. Very unusually for a small pickup during the Malaise Era, this one has a luxurious automatic transmission. Acceleration must have been a leisurely affair in this truck. Air conditioning? Unheard of! Someone stuck every one of their lunchtime apple stickers on the driver's door. After 41 years of work, this truck is done. Come on strong in a LUV of your own!
GM recalls 3,300 pickups and SUVs for new ignition-switch issue [UPDATE]
Mon, Oct 19 2015UPDATE: A statement from GM about the recall has been added below. The exact total of vehicles affected is 3,296, including 3,073 of them in the US. General Motors isn't letting an ignition-switch problem grow into a massive scandal again. The automaker is recalling about 3,300 North American trucks and SUVs. They are: the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra and the 2015 Chevy Suburban and Chevy Tahoe, as well as 2015 model heavy-duty pickups, the Detroit News reports, citing an Associated Press story. The issue appears to have been caught fairly quickly. In this case, the keys can get stuck in the "start" position and then slip to "accessory" if bumped. This is because the ignition lock gears have an outer diameter that's larger than the specifications allow. When that happens the engine shuts off, and the driver loses assistance to the steering and brakes. The airbags might also be affected. The vehicles get a new ignition-lock housing to fix the problem. According to the Detroit News, an employee who experienced the problem with the switch discovered the issue, and this person then let officials at the automaker know as part of the Speak Up for Safety program. A total of five reports of the fault were discovered. However, there are no cases of injuries or crashes. The claims to the automaker's resolution program eventually tallied that GM's previous ignition switch problem included 124 deaths and 275 injuries. The company also had to recall millions of vehicles and pay significant fines to the US government. GM Statement General Motors is recalling 3,073 full-size trucks from the 2014 and 2015 model years in the U.S. Some of these vehicles may have an ignition lock actuator gear with an outer diameter that exceeds specifications, which may make turning the ignition key difficult. The ignition key could get stuck in the "start" position. This may be more likely at higher interior ambient temperatures. If the vehicle is driven with the key stuck in the "start" position, and the vehicle experiences a significant jarring event or the vehicle's interior temperature cools, the ignition lock cylinder could move out of the "start" position, rotate past the "run" position, and move into the "accessory" position, leading to loss of power steering assist, power brakes and potentially air bag deployment in certain crashes. Dealers will replace the ignition lock housing.
Chevy Trax engineer says GMC version possible
Mon, Dec 8 2014The Buick Encore is doing so well and its platform-mate the Chevrolet Trax has such good reviewer vibes going for it already, that a GMC version hasn't been ruled out. During the recent press launch, Automotive News asked lead engineer Al Manzor if the Trax could wear a GMC-branded suit, to which Manzor replied, "I think that is certainly possible." That's a long way from telling us anything about the probability of a GMC version of the Trax, and a legion of questions would need to be answered before it could happen. How would a GMC version be priced to leave room for the $26,465 GMC Terrain but not eat into sales of the $20,995 Trax or the $24,035 Encore? Or would that matter? Could it primarily be considered to encourage a new faction of The Yukon Set at the compact end, GMC buyers being famously committed to the marque? And of course, would there be a Denali version? It'll probably be a long while before we have any kind of answers, but if you want to see it happen, the door to your campaign of persuasion is at least ajar.
