1994 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer Tahoe LT.  Black Exterior.  Black Interior.

First the good.  ALL the power options work.  Power Windows, Power Door Locks, Power Mirrors, Power Seat, ETC.  all function.  A/C blows cold.  Heater blows hot.  Rear Window release works correctly [this is kinda amazing].  Rear window defrost works.  Cruise control works.  All the Gauges work.  Basically all the stupid stuff that is usually broken on these trucks is working fine.  ABS light is NOT, i repeat NOT on.  amazing.

I just ran this truck through Maryland State Inspection less than a year ago, and their inspection is no joke.  So all the lights and stuff work fine.  It also got New Brakes up front, New oil lines Some front end pieces, a new battery, and a bunch of other little things.  It also had some, admittedly rough body work done to seal a couple of rust holes.

Now for the bad.  The big issue is the motor has a BAD knock in it.  I suspect either a Rod Bearing or Main Bearing failure.  It starts, but cannot be driven as i doubt it'd make it more than a few miles before the motor seized up.  

There was also a small leak in the spider injector that i never did track down that will need to be repaired.

Couple of minor issues.  Driver's side window goes off track when rolling down.  There is a flap in the Vent system that makes most of the air come out under the dash regardless of the position of the controls.  the A/C still blows cold, it's just on your feet.  Some air will come out on the window in defrost mode, but it's still not right.  It was workable, so i never got around to fixing it.

The 4WD does not work.  I tracked it down to the front axle not engaging.  Looks like the cable is binding, but i lost interest in fixing that when the weather got warm.

There is a good bit of rust below the two front doors and on the driver's side door.  The Passenger side front fender has a good bit of rust on it.  There are some dents and dings as well.  I tried to document those in the pictures.

The interior is in pretty good shape.   Couple of small issues, but nothing serious.  NO seat tears or anything.

This truck could be brought back to life by someone with the time to do it, or it would make an EXCELLENT parts truck as basically ALL the little things that are usually broken on these trucks aren't broken on this one.  I had planned on fixing the rust, painting it, and driving this truck for the next few years.  It just didn't work out that way.

Truck will have to be towed or trailered on pickup.  It cannot be driven in it's current state.

This is a NO RESERVE auction.  Highest bidder will win it.

Thanks and Happy Bidding!


here's a video of the truck running so you can hear what noise it's making.

Take a close look at the guts of the Chevy Volt battery, powertrain

Sat, Aug 9 2014

Just how intimate would you like to get with the powertrain in a Chevy Volt? If you're anything like YouTube user d55guy, then spending a half hour filming yourself taking apart the battery pack, motor, inverter and more for a look inside sounds like your idea of fun. After all, this way you get to see the cooling system, the heavy safety kill switch and count up the individual cells in the battery modules. Fun! Turns out, we also enjoy languidly paced Volt dissection video goodness, and we think you might want to see it as well. So, we've embedded two videos below and if you don't have a better understanding of how the Volt is put together after watching them, well, at least you can't say we never tried to show you anything. Given that what's really happening here is the organized 'destruction' of an expensive and potentially dangerous object, let's talk safety. There's a serious disclaimer at the beginning of the videos and on the YouTube description page, but we feel the need to repeat the gist of it here: do not try this at home. The creator of the video says he is a trained engineer and has been doing things like this "for the better part of a decade," so he apparently knows what he's doing. With that in mind, watch it all below. When you're done seeing the insides of a Volt powertrain up close, if you need more filmed EV dissection/destruction, check out this video designed for first responders approaching a damaged Tesla Model S.

GM's European Opel division may eventually go all-electric

Wed, Feb 15 2017

General Motors' Opel division in Europe may transform itself into an all-electric vehicle maker by 2030. Granted, a lot can happen between now and then, including a potential buyout by French automaker PSA Group. Regardless, Opel appears to view its electric future beyond the Ampera-e, which is the sister vehicle to the Chevrolet Bolt, and more like Tesla. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann indicated that focusing on electric drivetrains would be a superior strategy to expanding its EV technology while pushing forward with conventional drivetrains, says Automotive News Europe, citing comments Neumann made to German publication Manager Magazin. General Motors could make the decision to move towards an all-electric vehicle line for Opel as soon as May. Of course, that depends on whether Opel is bought out by PSA, the parent country to Peugeot and Citroen. PSA is in talks to buy General Motors' Opel and Vauxhall divisions, though government and labor representatives in Germany have expressed concerns over potential job losses from the proposed buyout, Reuters says. Regardless, GM has hinted at expanding its electric-vehicle line far beyond the Bolt, which has a 238-mile single-charge range and debuted late last year. Mary Barra, in an interview with CNET, said the Bolt's all-electric platform could be applied to a "huge range of vehicles," though wasn't specific about additional EV models. Opel first showed off its Ampera-e at the Paris Motor Show last fall. The name of the model raised some eyebrows because the Ampera badge had been previously used by Opel for the sister version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in. Either way, Opel is looking to take on Renault for electric-vehicle sales supremacy across the Pond. Related Video:
