Up for sale is my ’72 K5 Blazer. Originally from Phoenix, I have owned for the better part of 11 years. If you have ever owned one of these you will definitely appreciate the shape of this K5. Where do I begin to tell what has been done? The paint is Midnight Blue. Ok, If are like me, when you see these old rides with new or newer paint you can only wonder what is the paint hiding? This blazer was completely stripped before the new paint was applied, and absolutely no rust, filler, or damage was found (cost alone $10K). The paint is around 5yrs old, driven couple times a year and kept in a heated garage. During reassembly, the chrome and weather stripping were replaced. The top is a duel wall that needs minor work. The repairs to the top were done prior to paint, but top was off the Blazer, and now the minor things have resurfaced. I have updated the headlights and harness. It has a crate 350 with less than 6,000 miles, 700R4 transmission with a shift kit. Flowmaster exhaust. Differentials have been gone through as well as the transfer case. New front drive line, steering, radiator, battery. It does have factory air but has not been used for 10yrs, so I am sure it needs to be recharged. Or just take the top off. Has original reupholstered seats. The side panels have been covered to match the seats. It does not have carpet because I cannot make up my mind. I have recently put in a stereo system (pictures do not show), but consists of a hard to find Alpine duel post, 2 – 6x9, 2-12”, Alpine 6 disc changer, and finished off with 2 Alpine amps. This vehicle does not come with a warranty, written or implied. It is over 40yrs old. If you have additional questions, or would like more picts, feel free to contact me (605)348-4936. If you have zero feedback please contact me prior to bidding. I will be advertising with many sources and reserve the right to end auction at any time. Buyer is responsible for pick up or transport fees. Thank you for viewing.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?

Chevrolet Malibu gets across-the-board price cuts, hopes to dig out of slump

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

To say that things aren't going well for the newly redesigned 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is a pretty sizable understatement. Reports have been swirling about the Malibu getting an emergency design refresh, less than a year after its introduction, as well as having its production at the Fairfax Assembly Plant halted twice already this year for excessive inventory. Now, Motor Trend is reporting that the midsize sedan will be receiving price drops across the board ranging from $300 on a number of models up to $770 on the 1LT trim; offsetting some of MSRP drop, though, the destination charge has increased from $760 to $810.
Without destination, the entry-level Malibu LS now starts at $21,995, which is still about $300 more than a Honda Accord and about $300 less than the segment's top-selling Toyota Camry. This new pricing also drops the price of the Eco, 2LT and 3LT trims by $300. The LTZ trim has dropped by $415, meaning that the Malibu's top dog now starts at just under $30,000, excluding destination.
Here are the new starting prices for all eight of the Malibu trim levels compared to the previous prices for the 2013 model year (including destination):
