Being offered is a Full Size Chevrolet Blazer in great original shape.  This two owner truck has been well maintained and cared for and although not in perfect shape you can see what you are getting.  This is a very desirable year due to it being the last year without a catalytic converter, last year with the Dana front differential and the last year with the 12 Bolt rear end.  There are not many of these trucks out there that are this solid, yet all original.  Please do not hesitate to call me with any questions about this awesome truck, Tom 513 608-8121.

Exterior Highlights:  The exterior of the truck is in very good original shape as you can see in the pictures.  The truck still retains its mostly original Russet Metallic paint, most of which is in great shape on the very popular full size Blazer.  The truck is fitted with a removable white hard top which looks great on or off and completely changes the look and feel of this truck.  The exterior hardware is all in tact and the bright parts on the truck are in great shape.  This truck has a great stance with the rally wheels with excellent tires (about 6 months old). The truck is equipped with excellent chrome bumpers with factory bumper guards. The truck does have some rust, mainly in the quarters around the wheel openings.  As the photos indicate the amount of rust on this vehicle is pretty minor.  

Interior Highlights:  The interior of the truck as can be seen in the pictures is in excellent shape.  The bucket seats feature excellent vinyl seat covers and are very comfortable in this full size truck. The truck has a huge center console with cup holders. The truck has an excellent dash that is loaded with gauges.  The interior is loaded with creature comforts including push button AM/FM radio and cold blowing A/C.  There are numerous other options listed below.  The carpet, headliner, and door panels are in incredible original condition.   The truck still retains it original spare tire that has never been used.  If you have any questions about this unique vehicle please give me a call at 513 608-8121.  As the pictures show the interior is in excellent condition. 

Mechanical Highlights:  Mechanically this truck is 100% and equipped just the way you would want one.  The truck has a very clean engine compartment housing the original 350 Chevrolet V8 motor that starts and runs great.  The vehicle is equipped with functioning 4 wheel drive.  The vehicle is equipped with it’s original automatic transmission.  The undercarriage on this truck is super solid.  As is the rest of the truck, mechanically this truck is in great original condition.  This vehicle starts, runs, drives, and stops without any issues.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.

2014 Chevrolet C7 Corvette wastes no time zooming into Jay Leno's Garage

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Where else would you expect the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray to show up first? Although this time it isn't exactly in Jay Leno's Garage, Leno instead playing an away game at Brown's Classic Auto in Scottsdale, Arizona. Nor does Leno drive the car, instead taking an 11-minute walkaround of the new American sports car with General Motors design head Ed Welburn, the same man who recently brought by a string of classic Corvettes to the talk show host's California compound.
It is, admittedly, a love-fest for the American sports car now featuring 450 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, but one that also features admissions about previous Corvette seats like "they were kinda rough," and the explanation that labeling the coupe "Stingray" means not having to call it "the base Corvette." On top of that, Welburn also explains the proper application of the term "dashboard." You can watch it all in the video below.
