~This is a beautiful 1972 Chevrolet CST K5 Blazer 4x4. 2 owners. Life long, rust free California truck that still retains both of its blue and yellow license plates. This truck has never seen a day of snow or a salty road in its life! Very rare factory black paint with factory black hard top. Power steering and power disc brakes. Tach. 12 bolt posi rear end. Np 205 transfer case. AC truck but compressor was removed. The truck also has aftermarket power windows and locks. 

~The body and paint are beautiful! You very rarely see factory black Blazers. The truck is very straight and paint has a nice deep finish. It's had one repaint about 8 years ago and always been garaged. It appears to still have all of its original body panels. No accidents. The undercarriage is rust free also. Very dry truck! 

~The truck runs and drives great! The 350 V8 runs Strong! It was recently rebuilt and has approximately 5,000 miles.  Fires right up with no smoke, leaks or funny noises. Nice lumpy cam, aluminum intake and 4bbl carb. Turbo 350 transmission that shifts nice and crisp. All of the 4x4 works fine. This truck can be driven anywhere without worries. Drive straight down the road 80mph all day long. No overheating issues. 

~The interior is very clean. Dash is nice and uncut. Instruments are nice and bright. Seats are in good shape. Carpet is nice. All of the glass is good and windows roll up and down with ease. 

~All in all this is a rock solid, very cool old truck that draws crowds and get compliments everywhere you go. Finding good rust free first generation 68-72 Blazers is getting really difficult, finding one like that is an original factory black truck is nearly impossible.

GM earnings rise 1% as buyers pay more for popular pickups

Thu, Aug 1 2019

DETROIT — General Motors said Thursday that higher prices for popular pickup trucks and SUVs helped overcome slowing global sales and profit rose by 1% in the second quarter. The Detroit automaker said it made $2.42 billion, or $1.66 per share, from April through June. Adjusting for restructuring costs, GM made $1.64 per share, blowing by analyst estimates of $1.44. Quarterly revenue fell 2% to $36.06 billion, but still beat estimates. Analysts polled by FactSet expected $35.97 billion. Global sales fell 6% to 1.94 million vehicles led by declines in North America and Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa. The company says sales in China were weak, and it expects that to continue through the year. In the United States, customers paid an average of $41,461 for a GM vehicle during the quarter, an increase of 2.2%, as buyers went for loaded-out pickups and SUVs, according to the Edmunds.com auto pricing site. The U.S. is GM's most profitable market. Chief Financial Officer Dhivya Suryadevara said she expects the strong pricing to continue, especially as GM rolls out a diesel pickup and new heavy-duty trucks in the second half of the year. "We think the fundamentals do remain strong, especially in the truck market," she said, adding that strength in the overall economy and aging trucks now on the road should help keep the trend going. Light trucks accounted for 83.1% of GM's sales in the quarter, and pickup truck sales rose 8.5% as GM transitioned to new models of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, according to Edmunds, which provides content to The Associated Press. As usual, GM made most of its money in North America, reporting $3 billion in pretax earnings. International operations including China broke even, while the company spent $300 million on its GM Cruise automated vehicle unit. Its financial arm made $500 million in pretax income. Suryadevara said GM saw $700 million in savings during the quarter from restructuring actions announced late last year that included cutting about 8,000 white-collar workers through layoffs, buyouts and early retirements. The company also announced plans to close five North American factories, shedding another 6,000 jobs. About 3,000 factory workers in the U.S. whose jobs were eliminated at four plants will be placed at other factories, but they could have to relocate. GM expects the restructuring to generate $2 billion to $2.5 billion in annual cost savings by the end of this year.
