This 1975 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is unlike anything you have seen before not to mention it is topless. It is the
perfect truck for tailgating with its large size and insane entertainment package. In 1975, Chevrolet's K5 Blazer
was born to stand out due to its nice finishes and enormous size, however, this truck takes it over the top. This
show truck is finished in Corvette's Nassau Blue with a Hok Blue Marble and Violet Purple hockey stripe. One other
feature that makes this truck pop is that the interior is finished in a one of a kind fabric, Shark Skin. This
makes for a unique interior that has not been seen on any other truck.The engine is 454 cubic inches which thus
puts out upward of up to 475 horsepower. Before us there were two others that had owned the truck making the total
number of owners at three but each owner took amazing care of the show truck. While old, this car still screams new
having underwent a three year nut and bolt restoration. All of the records having to do with the restoration are
kept in a 4" binder that has everything from each receipt to a breakdown of each part. Many NOS (New Old Stock)
parts and badges were used on this truck creating yet a mix of vintage and modern appearance to this truck. The
truck's frame is the original sheet metal with a powder coated frame. Also, we have the unrestored top to this
truck. This truck is 100% rust free! Its whole life it has been garage kept which has been helpful to keep up its
amazing appearance.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible

Wed, Aug 1 2018

The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
