Riverside, California, United States
|
Up for auction is a very clean 90 K5 Blazer. It is currently being used as an everyday driver. All maintenance has been kept up and are all current. It has the factory throttle body injected 5.7 350 engine. 700R4 4 speed automatic transmission. Just did major tune up recently. Including spark plugs, ignition wires, distributor cap and rotor. Alternator and starter are new. Battery is about a year old. Coolant temp and MAP sensors are new. Fresh 5W30 Mobil One synthetic oil change. New transmission filter and fluid. Still has the factory front and rear axles with the 3.73 gears and rear limited slip. New air filter and fuel filter. The AC still has the R12 freon and I had it repaired and recharged. It will freeze you out. Rear brakes, drums, hardware and wheel cylinders were replaced. Front rotors and brake pads are new. Tires have over 85 percent life left on them. They are 33X12.50R15 Goodyear MT/R tires mounted on American Racing 15X10 black steel wheels. Power steering gear box has a slow leak. Suspension is also new with 4" Procomp lift. Front spring was replaced with Procomp lift spring and rear is 4" iron block. Steering are was replaced and body mounts were replaced with Energy Suspension bushings. All shocks are new with the lift. Has factory dual front shock set up. Procomp factory replacement steering stablizer. The road manner is excellent. The Offroad capability is also surprisingly well. Took it rock crawling up in Big Bear CA month ago and had no problems what so ever.
The exterior was repainted in the factory red color because the original paints clear coat was coming off. I had a body shop strip it down and respray it. The top I had painted satin black because I think it looks better then the red. The body is rust free and strait. Even the doors line up perfectly and shut like new. All the weather stripping was replaced after the paint work was done. The windshield is also brand new. The grille was showing its age so I had them paint it satin black. I think it looks cleaner then the black and chrome. The bumpers are still factory and have some dings here and there but look okay from 5 feet. Was thinking about having them redone in satin black also. I just had a class IV hitch installed with trailer brakes and 7 pin connector for towing. The interior is mostly original. The carpet is brand new replacement. the factory side panels in the rear were cardboard and the material was looking worn so I had new ones made and had it covered in faux suede. The doors also have the same material in the inserts. It looks great and custom. The headliner was replaced in the past. It is still good. All the trim is in good shape. The dash pad is the only bad thing, it has a few cracks. The radio is the factory installed tape player with the eq. It still works, just use the tape adapter for my ipod. I changed all the dash lights to smd led bulbs and it looks awsome at night. Nice and bright, even a hid blue color. The driver bottom seat it starting to tear, the other seats are good, I just had them cleaned. The fuel guage doesn't work correctly, was told it needs a sending unit. I might have it repaired before the end of auction. All depending on time. I just keep it full and watch the trip odo. I'm not really wanting to sell it, but other priorities have come up. I have put a lot of money into it and love driving it. I don't want to sell it but life makes us do things we don't like anyway. I have always wanted a K5 Blazer and now I have to sell it. The reserve is a lot lower then most being sold. If you have any questions about the truck please let me know. I drove it to Salt Lake and back 3 months ago. Got 15 mpg. |

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine
Fri, 08 Mar 2013Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
How a Texas Hyundai dealer became the Chevy SSR king
Tue, Apr 21 2015The SSR isn't one of the most appreciated vehicles in Chevy's long history. With a style amalgamating the look of a vintage hotrod, convertible and a pickup, it's really serving a niche market right from the start. However, a Hyundai dealer in Texas has turned selling the cult models into a booming business and has become the de facto king of the quirky truck. According to Automotive News, Paul Peebles runs North Freeway Hyundai in Spring, TX, but he's better known in the Chevy SSR community the premiere seller of the weird model through his used car network. The odd venture started in 2010 when Peebles wanted to boost his pre-owned business and bought several sporty vehicles. Among them were five SSRs, and he threw a cookout for owners to get the word out. Things just ballooned from there. Since then, Peebles' used car dealer has had a hand in 447 SSR transactions, and some of those are the same truck coming back to sell again. With just over 24,000 of them out there, that works about to two percent of the model's production moving through just one business. The dealership also sponsors an SSR owners' forum online. Being a major broker for a niche model also means that Peebles often gets rare examples of the SSR, including some of the Indianapolis 500 pace car versions, according to Automotive News. We even saw a bizarre one last year when the business put this shark-inspired truck on eBay Motors. The whole thing also works out well for Peebles' Hyundai business. Specializing in SSRs brings other performance models in as trade-ins, and they can draw folks to the lot to check out the collection. Then, maybe visitors can take a look at a Sonata, too.
Stop-start standard in four-cylinder 2015 Chevrolet Impala
Fri, May 23 2014Chevrolet has announced that it will include stop-start technology as standard in the entry level 2015 Impala. The result is a nearly five-percent improvement in city fuel economy, also known as one mile per gallon, up to 25 mpg, combined. The 3.6-liter V-6 Impala will not feature stop-start. The 2015 Impala comes equipped with Chevrolet's 2.5-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine, which will also offer 22 mpg in the city, and 31 on the highway. The 3.6-liter V-6 Impala will not feature stop-start and the mild-hybrid eAssist model from the 2014 MY, which got 29/25/35 combined/city/highway mpg, has been discontinued. Chevrolet spokesman Chad Lyons told Green Car Reports that not even one percent of the 2014 Impalas purchased were the Eco model. So Chevy is trying something different. With a seamless driving experience in mind, the new Impala's stop-start tech features software that governs under what conditions the feature will activate. The engine won't shut off if the car has not reached a speed of six miles per hour, so the start-stop won't be cycling during traffic jams. It can also fire the starter even if the engine has not come to a full stop, which quickens reaction time, particularly in instances of what Chevrolet calls "change-of-mind events." The stop-start function uses information about cabin temperature and humidity as well as battery charge to help determine whether or not to shut off the engine. The 2015 Impala has been engineered to reduce NVH, which will also help create a smoother stop-start experience for occupants, Chevy says. Motor mounts have been updated, and a burlier starter motor will help restart the engine after a stop. The Impala follows the 2014 Malibu as Chevrolet's second vehicle to feature stop-start tech. The four-cylinder model currently makes up over 30 percent of Impala sales. The 2015 Impala will be available beginning this summer, with a base MSRP of $27,735 (including destination charges). And while one MPG isn't a huge difference, neither is the price increase of just $50 for a bit of eco-minded innovation. Read on for more details in the press release below. Chevrolet Makes Stop/Start Standard in 2015 Impala Technology improves city fuel economy by 5 percent 2014-05-22 DETROIT – Stop/start technology will be standard on the 2015 Impala base 2.5-liter ECOTEC® engine, an addition that improves the vehicle's city fuel economy by nearly 5 percent, or one mile per gallon.
