~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.

Ford also working on 200-mile EV to compete with Bolt, Model 3

Fri, Mar 6 2015

The Chevrolet Bolt is on a lot of people's radars. You may have even noticed friends and colleagues who harbor very little interest in the automotive world, or anything labeled as "green," who have taken notice of a 200-mile electric vehicle coming out of Detroit. Mass appeal is the idea, after all. You can include Ford in the list of interested parties, in this case with the intention of taking direct aim at the Bolt – and, by proxy, the Tesla Model 3 – with an affordable, long-range EV of its own. Ford will unveil its own long-range EV, positioned to compete with Chevrolet, later this year, according to Automobile. Details are very scarce about Ford's plans, but we do know that the Bolt (or whatever the Chevy all-electric hatchback will end up being called) is expected to offer over 200 miles of driving between charges, with a sticker price around $30,000. The other major player, of course, is Tesla's smaller, more affordable sibling to the Model S. The Model 3, also slated to go on sale in 2017, should cost less than $40,000. While Tesla has established itself in the EV world, another long-range EV out of Detroit would win some customers from the California-based startup. For now, though, we'll just have to wait, as Ford remains tight-lipped about its plans for the car. Automobile predicts a possible unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, what with California's EV mandate being a driver of strategy for various automakers. Most can agree, though, that a larger field of options – while not ideal for backers of the Bolt or Model 3 – will only benefit the car-buying public.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.

That time we lapped Indy with Tony Kanaan in a Corvette Z06

Sat, May 23 2015

We're here in Indianapolis, IN, attending this weekend's 99th running of the Indy 500. The big event happens tomorrow, but the city is buzzing today with all sorts of pre-race festivities. For us, that means checking out Indianapolis Motor Speedway a day early, and getting a hot lap around the racetrack in the official Indy 500 pace car – a 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Our driver for the occasion is IndyCar racer Tony Kanaan, who won the Indianapolis 500 in 2013. Of course, he'll be competing tomorrow, leaving pace duties to none other than Jeff Gordon. Check out our minute-and-a-half-long lap of the Indy 500 track in the video above, where Kanaan hugs the wall in true race style, getting the Z06 past 150 miles per hour on the back straight. Stay tuned for more Indy 500 coverage later this weekend.
