~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.

LG Chem's troubled Chevy Volt battery plant hiring once again

Thu, Sep 25 2014

The Michigan battery plant known for paying its workers to do nothing has turned things around and is now hiring more workers, specifically to do something. South Korea-based LG Chem, which runs the factory to supply the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle with its lithium-ion batteries, held a job fair recently to bring on 40 new employees in order to meet higher battery demand, according to WZZM, the ABC affiliate for Grand Rapids, MI. The LG Chem factory is in Holland, MI, about 30 miles west of Grand Rapids, and it made its first batteries last year. Prior to that, though, the factory gained notoriety after a US Department of Energy (DOE) probe found that workers there were getting paid to do, well, nothing. That's because demand for the battery packs was so low that it cost less for the plant to sit idle. The DOE was conducting the probe because of its financial grant to LG Chem. But that was then and today is today. LG Chem is looking to ramp up production in advance of the second-generation Volt. That 2016 model-year version is said to have a longer all-electric range and better performance and will ride on a new chassis, but few official details have surfaced. We will know more when we get our first look at the car at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.
