1973 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Gmc Jimmy Full Convertable 4x4 on 2040-cars
Patterson, California, United States
|
For sale is a 1973 GMC Jimmy Sierra full convertible 4x4. I purchased this vehicle 3 years ago from the owner who did the frame-off restoration 3 years prior. The restoration has approximately 7,000 miles on it between the original owner and the miles that I have driven it. This vehicle was restored to look original without the sluggish and restricted smog compliant motors of those years. This vehicle is now smog exempt. Since I did not rebuild it myself I do not know the specifics of what went into the motor. I do know that it was completely rebuilt from the top to the bottom and equipped with upgraded intake, carb, ignition, headers, cam, exhaust, and etc. Some of this can be seen in the pictures as well as the overall condition and cleanliness under the hood. The builder said he had the engine built up to 400 horsepower. I can not verify that but this engine does have some serious "get up and go" and runs strong and smooth as it should. It is paired to the rebuilt TH-350 automatic transmission with shift kit. It always runs cool with all new hoses and cooling system. The interior is near perfect. A new Alpine receiver was installed to use with smartphone, iPod, or mp3's and its connected to new JL Audio speakers that sound great. The vehicle has an alarm system and keyless entry. Although it has factory AC it does not blow cold. All controls and heater work great but the AC needs to be charged. The AC has not worked since I have owned the vehicle but I never charged it or investigated if the system had a leak since I have always used it with the top off anyway. The needle on the gear indicator also does not work. It indicates "P" all the time. Other than the two issues mentioned, everything else is in excellent condition and functions as it should. This vehicle is a 4x4 but it has never seen dirt. It has always been garaged and only used to cruise the streets on weekends with good weather. This vehicle runs and drives as new. It holds the road extremely well and brakes true. It has plenty of power and is perfectly reliable and comfortable to drive on any trip. When I bough it, it had aftermarket wheels so I bought some factory rally's and hubs and had them painted and polished to original spec. I put new Michelin tires on them and have not driven it 500 miles since. The builder also installed an extra seat in the back you can view in the pictures. I have described the vehicle the best I can and I hope the pictures describe it well too, but for any questions serious buyers may have they can call me at 209-605-5946 and I will try to answer. All in all this is a turn key truck that's ready for a new owner to drive and enjoy. Thanks $500 Deposit at close of auction for winning bidder. Cash, cashiers check, or wire transfer for remaining funds. Will help with shipping arrangements at buyers expense. Sold As Is. |

Consumer Reports declares most and least loved cars [w/video]
Wed, Dec 3 2014Consumer Reports is crunching the numbers from its annual owner-satisfaction survey, and part of that process is finding out how attached drivers are to their cars. CR simply asks readers of models up to three years old if they would buy the same vehicle again in light of their entire ownership experience, and tallies the results. After looking at the responses for about 350,000 vehicles, it turns out that people really love a certain California-built, electrically powered luxury sedan. That's right, this year's the overall winner was the Tesla Model S with a whopping 98 percent of owners saying they would purchase another one (the Model S also won this award last year, with 99 percent satisfaction). The Chevrolet Corvette Stingray came in a close second with 95 percent of drivers hoping to park another one in their garage. A few models weren't quite so favored, though. The Nissan Versa Sedan was the least loved model among its owners; a mere 42 percent said that they would purchase another. The aging Jeep Compass didn't do much better, with just 43 percent of drivers willing to buy the softroader again. On average, about 70 percent of owners say they would buy their car again, and only four cars ranked below 50 percent in CR's findings. Check out the video above to see some of the winners and losers in a few of CR's categories. If you're a subscriber, you can check out the full list on its website.

Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady
Mon, Nov 3 2014Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon. For now, we await your comments, below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
Chevy working on production Impala Midnight Edition
Sat, Dec 13 2014To put together the Impala Blackout concept for SEMA, Chevrolet didn't need to go much further than its accessories catalog. The in-house connection is what could make it possible for Chevy to get a production version of the Blackout into dealers this model year, with its few bits of chrome trim and dark detailing on the 19-inch aluminum wheels set into an abyss of gloss black paint, black Bowtie, grille surround, rear spoiler and mirror caps. The interior is black leather, with stainless steel for the sill plates and pedals, and an 11-speaker Bose audio system, and it gets the optional 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter V6. The brand's marketing director for cars and crossovers, Steve Majoros, told Edmunds that it could come in late spring, and that it will be called "Midnight Edition." Majoros didn't give any indication of pricing or if the production car will be spec'd out like the concept. If you simply don't want to wait for late spring, you could work your DIY mojo by putting one together the same way Chevrolet did: give the accessories catalog a workout. Related Video:
