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.

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
