1990 Chevrolet Silverado K5 Blazer

1990 Blazer K5 V8 5.7 TBI Engine, with 700r4 Transmission.  The truck has 52k miles and drives like it.  The truck is solid with no Rust.  The truck was bough from some local winter visitors a little over 2 years ago.  The truck was like most cars that have been in Arizona for a while the paint was completely faded and I started off with a fresh paint job.  The truck was originally the charcoal gray, I decided to add silver to make it stand out. I decided to go with a two tone and I get a lot of compliments from it.   The paint job was done approximately December 2012 and still looks like it was done yesterday!  The undercarriage was coated in chassis paint to make look new again. 

There is an endless amount of accessory items that have been replaced as most of what was installed in the truck was either dry rotted or just completely faded or I just wanted to make it look new again.  The interior was in good shape but decided to get a new carpet, and redo the seats and headliner/visors to make it look new again as the old carpet and seats were faded and had some stains.  I have done my very best to get my mechanic to correct any oil leaks it had.  As of right now I haven't noticed any oil leaks.

The pictures should speak for themselves.  I would have no problem driving this truck anywhere, it has low miles and has brand new tires that still have nubs on them.  The jack and handle and windshield wipers are not in the pictures but I do have them and will install them before the truck sells.  We get about 1/2 inch of rain per year so the chances of needing the wipers in Yuma are slim to none so when the truck was painted I didn't put them back on.

The truck has stock cruise control, A/C and it all works! Even the stereo is original, it has never been cut and wiring is still as original and stock as it can be.   I have had my fun with it driving it (drove very little) and restoring it.. I actually rarely even drive it therefore I'm deciding to free up some space in the garage and add some money back into the savings account by selling some of my toys that I don't play much with. 

Here is a list of some new parts within the last year:
Windshield
Rear Glass
Door Weather Strip
Door Glass Weather Strip
Camper shell Weather Strip
Door Panel Aluminum Inserts
Door Carpet Kit
Carpet Kit
Seat Upholstery
Dome Lens

Windshield Wipers
A/C 134 Conversion
Serpentine Belt
Battery
Differential Oil Change
Valve Cover Gaskets
Valve Stem Seals


The not so good:
Driver Door window goes up and down like it should but the Passenger Door Window and Rear window are slow to go up and down but DO go up and down, I have not replaced those window motors (this was in my list to do next but never bothered me enough to change them).   The truck only has speakers in the dash.  When i had the rear quarter panels done I didn't install speakers as I wanted to do a custom stereo system.  The interior quarter panels are a blank canvas to add the speakers and stereo system of your choice.  Also, it is barely noticeable in the pictures but the rear bumper does have some minor dents in it, I never considered replacing because it is barely noticeable.  The dash pad does have a couple hair line cracks as most trucks this age do. 




PLEASE NOTE: There is a mileage discrepancy in the CarFax due to the DMV assuming it had 152k miles instead of the 52k miles it actually has.  The speedometer goes up to 6 digits.  I have an appointment with the DMV this week to fix this issue, they have to do an inspection and I have to provide the documentation that shows the actual mileage. The Carfax clearly shows that the truck only has 52k+ miles as well as the history that was given to me when i purchased it.  I have worked on the truck for the last 2 years but have driven it very very little.  Maybe about 300-400 miles total. (I didn't drive it much to not add miles to it).  I drove it locally to a car meets and such but most of the time I transported the truck on a flatbed to keep the miles low.


I am not a mechanic, please come and inspect the truck, ask for more pictures or simply send me an email with whatever questions you might have.  Please email me any questions you might have and I will try to respond promptly. 

Please note that the deposit is NON-REFUNDABLE.  Please ONLY bid if you intend to buy.

Thanks again and happy bidding!

This SEMA special drag race is absurdly awesome

Fri, Dec 5 2014

The SEMA Show came and went last month, and it showed us a ton of heavily modded goodies to dream about during the long, cold winter. The Motor Trend Channel on YouTube is keeping the party rolling a little longer, though, with a drag race inspired by the aftermarket event. All of the hosts were supposed to borrow a vehicle from the show for the big race, but only two of them actually cajoled companies into lending their wares. Still, the result includes four very cool and extremely different examples of the breadth of the automotive hobby. First up, there's a 1955 Chevrolet with a 535-cubic-inch (8.8-liter) Hemi V8 stuffed under the hood. Appropriately, it's dubbed the Blasphemi, and with skinny tires up front, fat rubber in the rear and a stripped interior, this this is made to go very fast in a straight line. Next, there's a stock Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat boasting 707 horsepower. Plus, host Jessi Lang has her dog riding shotgun for the race. A Chevy Sonic RS with some body mods, downpipe and intake is also competing. Finally, the most bizarre of the quartet is a custom 1958 Jeep Forward Control with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and treads to replace the wheels. Obviously, the Blasphemi and Hellcat are the only two that really have a chance of winning, but check out the video to see which one crosses the finish line first.

Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts

Fri, Jan 27 2017

The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that the manager of a collision and restoration business in Virginia admitted he helped misappropriate and sell vehicles and parts from the State Department. Specifically, he sold 12 Chevrolet Suburbans, a Hummer, and $7,500 worth of tires and wheels. He pled guilty to charges to commit theft of government property and wire fraud. He will likely see 18 to 20 months in prison, a fine of $4,000 to $40,000, and has already agreed to pay restitution of $416,020 and asset forfeiture of the same amount. According to the Department of Justice, the body shop manager, James Ratcliffe, worked with the owner of the business and a State Department official, both unnamed, to obtain the property. It started with the wheels and tires, which were delivered and sold on two occasions, one in 2011 and another in 2012. The trucks came later, and were sold throughout 2011 and 2013. Ratcliffe and the shop owner kept most of the profits, and shared some of the leftovers with the government official. In addition to the vehicles that were sold, the government official also gave Ratcliffe a pair of Suburbans for his own personal use. The Department of Justice estimated the total value of the SUVs at $96,400. In total, the group misappropriated $512,420 worth of property. Related Video:

Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan

Sat, Dec 6 2014

"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.
