Honest 1972 Chevy Blazer driver door skin repaired early 80s. This truck is all original & has a very solid frame. I'm the 2nd owner. It's a super rare truck that is always going up in value and unless your neighbor next store has one you just don't see them very often....This truck is in need of some small amounts of sheet metal work in a few areas only.

Some rust & bubbling in the paint not bad for a 41 year old truck. Driver door skin was replaced in the early 80's do to pulling up to close to a pay phone and could use work again being 30 years has past. Small rust area on passenger side front fender & driver side rear quarter up top has rust but only the outer sheet metal rusted off not rusted threw. Very honest & original truck frame,body panels,paint,& interior w/tach & a very desirable single wall top most people want over the double wall see all photos.  
  Take a good look at this truck not much to do to get it all done without all the Chinese body panel parts .  Some of these other Chevy Blazers you see selling for 25-30 thousand dollars you may or may not know what your getting. They look really nice! but you have to ask yourself do you really got an all American Classic or not  . Don't be shy to ask the sellers for some before body and paint photos if your spending thousand of dollars on one . You may be surprised of what answers you'll get . The rocker panels ,rocker boxes, doors & windshield frame are most common to rust complicity out on these trucks. This truck still has them intact. The bottoms of the doors where your seeing the bubbling in the paint are also common areas for rust to start . As for the interior of this K5 its in great condition! The dash was never cut for an over sized radio/CD player to fit in the space of an older style AM radio that in itself is rare! most of the time they have been cut out to make them fit 
   This old gal still has all the original seats & vinyl upholstery with NO rips or tares on the two front buckets or rear bench. As you see with these other Chevys online this also is a rare commodity. If they were easy to find seats they would be inside them 25-30 thousand dollar cars and some are but then some aren't. 
   Floors are solid no rust holes at all, front windshield frame is also solid no rust there,driver & passenger side floor pans are also common to rust out . This blazer still has them in tact and just has some surface rust from moisture from the carpet. It also has the original carpet that needs replaced. I would suggest having the floors rhino lined so that you don't get the moister problems that caused the surface rust to start in the first place before a carpet replacement. 
    It has a 4"lift but not hard to get into it sits head to head with the new GMC trucks hight. I didn't get around to fixing the exterior of the truck I focused mainly on the internal parts. This truck has a mild RVcam & edelbrock manifold with an edelbrock1408 carb & a hei distributor runs really good sounds nice!   Also I've done rear drums,shoes,front rotors ,calipers,front pads,pitman arm, drag link inner & outer & new battery all in 2013. I wanted to be sure of the reliability of the truck as this trucks weight is a lot to have to push off the road. Unless your built like Arnold Schwarzenegger was in the 80's where this trucks stops is where it sits so it was important to me to be sure of its good running condition. Still has some good rubber on the tires around 80%.  Also let me say that this is my weekend cruiser and milage will change as I still enjoy driving it on sunny days. This Chevy Blazer  is being sold as is and the buyer will be responsible of pickup or shipping arrangements . I reserve the right to end this auction at any time do to it being for sale locally.   
   This can be a great project for the upcoming winter months and needs to go to someone who has been looking for that all original Chevy K5 blazer. Act fast as these tend to go up in value in the spring. I feel I've got it priced right at the (buy it now price) as there is a little work that still needs done. It's under value at my reserve. So buy now and save and work on it at your own pace. The last photo you see in the listing is a completed and fully restored Chevy Blazer not the one for sale in this listing but this is how they look restored .   
  If it don't sell then you'll see it in the spring as a completed project with a much higher price tag with before,during restoration & completion of work photos having no hidden body filler & new metal going in place as this old gal deserves it

PAYMENTS:  Will be non refundable $1000 dollar deposit do immediately at auction end with Paypal or bank wire and 7 days for the remaining balance to be paid in full. If you don't have the money on hand please do not bid I will report all no payers to Ebay inc. So happy bidding and enjoy the auction...

Recharge Wrap-up: Panasonic, Tesla on Gigafactory deal?

Tue, Jul 29 2014

Bentley has been awarded the Carbon Trust Standard for reductions of carbon, water use and waste production in manufacturing. The Carbon Trust is an organization that helps groups such as businesses and governments reduce carbon emissions, use of energy and resources, and waste output. From 2011 to 2013, Bentley reduced CO2 emissions by 16 percent per car manufactured, curtailed water use by 35.7 percent, and saw significant waste reductions. Darran Messem of Carbon trust says, "Bentley is clearly passionate about continuing to improve its environmental performance, which is reflected by the fact the company has consistently invested in new technology." Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet is giving 12 Volts to MBAs Across America. The organization will use the range-extended electric cars in its efforts to help MBA students learn from and work with small business owners. As part of the MBAs Across America program's first year, four students drove 8,000 miles to provide entrepreneurs with free business counseling. The program has expanded, and this year, teams of MBAs will use the Volts to travel to 25 cities to offer their services. Learn more about the partnership between Chevrolet and MBAs Across America in the press release below. A professor from the University of Michigan has found fuel cycle analysis to be too flawed to be relied upon for measuring CO2 impacts of transportation fuels. Professor John DeCicco of the university's Energy Institute feels that the flaws in calculating the carbon footprint of liquid fuel production and combustion make such lifecycle analysis impractical. He suggests, instead, to focus to carbon capture. Since capturing CO2 directly from a vehicle is probably never going to happen, DiCicco believes the solution is to capture carbon from the atmosphere in sectors outside of transportation. Says DiCicco, "Research should be ramped up on options for increasing the rate at which CO2 is removed from the atmosphere and on programs to manage and utilize carbon fixed in the biosphere, which offers the best CO2 removal mechanism now at hand. Such strategies can complement measures that control the demand for liquid fuels by reducing travel activity, improving vehicle efficiency and shifting to non-carbon fuels."

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.

2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696

Fri, Sep 17 2021

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.
