1979 TWO TONE SOUTHERN K5 BLAZER

HIGHLY ORIGINAL

WELL MAINTAINED

THIS IS A FIRST TIME OFFERING A 1979 TWO TONE SOUTHERN K5 BLAZER. A real beauty! The odometer reads just 59,000 miles. It is a highly original truck and in better condition than most. The 350 engine is strong and it runs, drives, shifts and handles very well. It is top of the line, the Cheyenne model. It has new tires, Monroe shocks and real Flowmasters.

THIS 1979 K5 BLAZER EXTERIOR

In order for you to see how awesome this truck is running naked, I took the time to remove the top. You will find over 100 close up photos, many of them with the top off. Best described as Big. Bad. Bold. Beautiful. Even though its stance is highlighted, it is just as sharp with the top on.

The top itself is in good condition with all of the windows opening and closing properly. The back window operates properly. Also, it sits up nice and tall just like it should. The chrome bumpers are in great condition, as is the grill, headlights and tail lights are bright and shiny. The stainless steel bright work is in very good condition. All the seams are original, so are the rockers and cab corners. There are few scars, top to bottom. This is a quality vehicle. Please note: Not too often are you able to take photos of the underside of a 35-year-old vehicle without apology. There is no repair or rust here, never has been. It is completely solid and dry.

ENGINE

The engine and engine compartment are clean, tidy and detailed. Nothing is missing. The headers and the Flowmaster exhaust leave one in awe. The sound is powerful and sort of wicked, yet not too loud.....just a thunder rumble. There is no smoke, not even on start-up. It starts instantly and takes instant command. The front end, suspension and steering have no issues. It shifts quick and easy as the manufacturer intended.

INTERIOR

The entire interior is original and in very good condition. There is a nice fitting dash pad. This was a southern truck. All of the gauges are crystal clear. This is the Cheyenne model. Cheyennes have custom trim in camel, plus bright trim, color keyed carpeting, a color keyed console, full instrumentation and a custom steering wheel. Very sporty and so easy to look at. This is an air conditioned, tilt wheel truck adding to your comfort.

This is a solid investment. NADA states classic and/or vintage trucks are increasing in value quicker than any other vehicle. The Blazer is well priced. It is as shown. This is a 7 day auction ending on?

REMEMBER TO PLACE YOUR BID. This is a 7 day listing which will end WEDNESDAY, August 13 at 9 P M EDT!

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.

GM Recalling Another 2.7 Million Vehicles In Five Separate Campaigns

Thu, May 15 2014

The recalls keep rolling in from General Motors, evidently keen to avoid repeating the mistakes of the ignition-switch debacle and clean house. This time they're all coming at once, with five separate recalls announced together covering approximately 2.7 million vehicles. The largest of the five actions involves over 2.4 million units of the previous-generation Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura in order to fix brake light wiring harness, which have been found to be susceptible to corrosion. The recall is separate from the 56k Aura sedans which GM recently recalled over faulty shift cables, not to mention the previous massive recall of 1.3 million vehicles – some of them the same models – but appears to have resulted from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation that started with the G6 almost a year ago. The second-largest campaign involves the 2014 Chevy Malibu, specifically those fitted with GM's 2.5-liter engine and stop/start system, approximately 140,000 examples of which has been found to have problematic brakes. The issue does not appear to be connected to the recall of 8k Malibu and Buick LaCrosse sedans (also involving brake woes) which we reported upon last week. Four crashes have been reported in such models, but GM admits it's not yet clear if the problem was a contributing factor in the accidents. A further 112k Corvette models from the 2005-2007 model years are being called in for problems with their low-beam headlamps resulting from a flexing relay control circuit wire that's not meant to bend. GM says it is "aware of several hundred complaints" about this issue, but notes that there have been no reports of related accidents. In addition, over 19k examples of Cadillac CTS from the 2013 and 2014 model years are being recalled over windshield wipers that might not work after a jump start. Finally, GM is also bringing in 477 examples of its 2014 Chevy Silverado, Tahoe and GMC Sierra (though not the Yukon) to fix a problem with a tie rod in its steering rack. As ever, all recall repairs will be performed free of charge, and GM is now estimating that recall-related actions this quarter will result in an estimated $200-million charge against its second-quarter earnings. Read the full announcement from GM below for further details.

10 of 18 midsize SUVs earn 'good' IIHS side impact safety rating

Wed, May 18 2022

It's not terribly surprising that midsize SUVs earned better safety ratings than small SUVs in the latest side-impact tests performed by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Just how much better they scored, on the other hand, certainly raises an eyebrow. Ten out of 18 midsize SUVs earned the highest rating of 'good' in the stringent new test, altered for vehicles starting with the 2020 model year with a heavier barrier (4,200 pounds) that moves at a higher speed (37 miles per hour) and is fitted with a hard honeycomb frontal structure. By way of contrast, just one out of of 20 small SUVs earned a 'good' score.  SUVs that receiving 'good' scores were the Ford Explorer, Infiniti QX60, Lincoln Aviator, Mazda CX-9, Nissan Pathfinder, Subaru Ascent, Toyota Highlander, Volkswagen Atlas, Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and Volkswagen ID.4. For EV fans, it's worth noting the ID.4 was the only electric vehicle included in the test. The Buick Enclave and Chevrolet Traverse scraped away with 'acceptable' ratings while the Honda Passport, Honda Pilot, Hyundai Palisade, Jeep Wrangler 4-door, Kia Telluride and Nissan Murano were deemed merely 'marginal' in the tough new test. Only two models — the Mazda CX-9 and Volkswagen ID.4 — earned a "Good" rating in every test category.  Interestingly, the Jeep Wrangler would have scored a 'good' rating if it were equipped with side airbags for the rear seating positions. It would likely be an engineering challenge to equip its removable top and/or doors with airbags, but the lack of that safety feature allowed the head of the rear passenger dummy to hit the vertical support of the top. Otherwise, the Wrangler scored good ratings across the board. The new Ford Bronco, which makes more allowances for side-impact safety, has not yet been tested.  The popular Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride SUVs stand out in the test with 'poor' ratings for driver pelvis injuries. The Nissan Murano, a vehicle last redesigned for the 2015 model year, was the only vehicle tested that received a 'poor' rating for its structure and safety cage. Videos of the tests of 12 of these 18 SUVs can be found on the IIHS' YouTube page.
