Full Size Blazer, Parts Truck, Project Truck, 4x4, Removable Top, 350 Not 305 on 2040-cars
Union, Maine, United States
Hello to all ebayers, PLEASE READ.....
.....up for your consideration and/or bid is my other 1984
Chevrolet Blazer. This is the next to the last generation of the FULL
SIZE Blazer that only came in 2 doors long before the term SUV was
common place. The motor is a 1973 Chevrolet 350 Monte Carlo engine that runs good, low mileage of approximately 15,000 miles on rebuilt motor in (1995) and of course burns no oil. Could probably use a tune up from sitting in storage and being started/ used little over the years. The transmission and rear-end (differential) are all original and have never been rebuilt or out of the Blazer. I've
owned the Blazer
since 1998 and purchased it for a daily driver for the winter months here in Maine. In 2003 I purchased a new Edellebrock carburetor, also new then,...a water pump, fuel pump, alternator, inner-liners, front fenders, doors, tail gate, dual exhaust, dual front shocks,(rare) replaced rubber cab mounts along with the bolts and washers, inner and outer rockers. The Blazer would make a great "fixer-upper", restoration project or an
excellent parts Blazer, should you need Blazer parts or a woods "buggie". The frame is very solid and in excellent condition with just surface rust, no bad spots or structural issues of any kind. The
last time I started the Blazer
was early July of this year,...2014. The motor oil and
antifreeze are clean and at the full level with no leaks. The running gear all works fine when parked, and the
Blazer currently moves around with ease on a fully
free-rolling chassis. All the tires are 31" X 10.5" X 15,...hold air and stay up with no
problem. The exterior sheet metal all around is pretty decent,
there are some small areas of surface rust "here and there",...the worst sheet
metal rust is the floor braces (see pictures) along with some rust threw of the rear cargo floor area, which is very
much typical of all full size Blazers used in winter-salt/
calcium-chloride regions of the country. The body mount braces up front are in bad condition and allowed the body to start dropping. The Blazer has the complete set
of original rally rims, trim rings and center caps (less one center cap missing on drivers side front)
which are increasingly hard to come by as of late
years. I've stated all that I know about this Blazer as factual as possible. Due to the age
and amount of sitting for years, this Blazer does not come with any guarantees
or warranties expressed or implied and is sold as is where is. For
the winning bidder I offer FREE delivery
BUT only if you are local and/ or up to only 20 miles away. If you are
21-100
miles from the Blazer I offer delivery for a fee of $1.00 per mile. I do
not
offer any delivery options over 100 miles and I certainly do not offer
any long
haul options from state to state either. Any winning bidder that is in
the
"over 100 mile category" it is up to you to make shipping
arrangements and of course all transportation and shipping costs are the
expense of you...(the winning high bidder). At my discretion, I may
extend the
free delivery from 21-100 miles if the Blazer reaches a dollar amount I
deem
acceptable. Should you use your own trailer/equipment to pickup the Blazer,...I offer FREE loading assistance to you with my Rollback and
equipment,...or I'll assist the
carrier of your choice (should you hire one),...also FREE of charge. PLEASE NOTE;...the state of Maine
does not/will not issue a title for ANY automobile/vehicle of 1995 and prior. I
do not have a title and the Blazer comes with a bill-of-sale as ownership.
ADDITIONAL NOTE;...some states will not accept a bill-of-sale as ownership of a
vehicle,...please check with your individual state. FOR THOSE PERSPECTIVE
BIDDERS THAT FIT INTO THIS LAST CATEGORY,...please let me know and I can
contact the state of Maine and they will issue a legal document so that you can
take this paperwork to YOUR state DMV you reside in and YOUR STATE will issue
you a new title in your state. I've done
this may of times before and to my knowledge this is the only perfectly legal
way for bidders from title-demanding states to get a title for a vehicle from a
non-title issuing state. As always,...UNDERCARRIAGE PICTURES are always posted for perspective bidders/ buyers!!! I believe the pictures speak for them self, and what
doesn't I've included in the description,........if you feel I have missed
anything or you have any questions what so ever, please feel free to send me an
email and I'll answer the question(s) asap. Upon the completion of the auction
I ask that the winning bidder to commit to the transaction with payment in the
form of a $200.00 deposit within 48 hours. I also ask that the high bidder
follow-up with full payment in 7 days,
or contact me for additional time if needed. If you have no intent of following threw with
the complete payment of the auction item, please just don't bid and waste
everyone's time playing games,...any non paying bidders will be reported to
both ebay and all 3 major credit reporting agency's. ********KEEP WATCH,...a lot of interesting older ANTIQUE/CLASSIC AUTOS (1949-1985) better shape than this coming in the next several weeks/months,...ALL of which will start with a modest starting price w/NO RESERVE!!!******** .....thanks for looking, Bob. |

Netflix to feature electric cars from GM and others in programming
Sun, Feb 5 2023LOS ANGELES — Netflix has unveiled a new star for some of its upcoming programming: electric vehicles from General Motors and other automakers. The streaming service announced an agreement on Thursday to feature vehicles including the Chevrolet Bolt, the electric GMC Hummer pickup and the Cadillac Lyriq in TV series and films "where relevant." The companies will highlight the partnership in a commercial featuring Will Ferrell that will air during the Feb. 12 Super Bowl. Netflix and GM called the agreement "part of a commitment to a more sustainable future." Financial terms were not disclosed. Netflix said it will help creators "better understand how EVs can complement and enhance their stories." Shows that will feature GM's electric vehicles include "Love is Blind," "Queer Eye" and "Unstable." Netflix productions also will include electric vehicles made by other automakers, the company said.

My year in EVs: 8 electrics that are changing the car industry
Wed, Dec 1 2021The year 2021 will go down as an inflection point in the auto industry’s transition to electric vehicles. It's when many much-anticipated models became reality. No longer sketches or sketchy prototypes, electric vehicles appeared from all corners with everything from the Lucid Air to Ford Mustang Mach-E changing how we think about transportation. I managed to drive a lot of them, and as I went through my notes, I realized IÂ’ve got a mini memoir of the seminal EVs of 2021. HereÂ’s my take on eight of them. Hummer EV Easily the most over-the-top EV I tested this year. The 1,000-hp super truck lived up to the hype with its domineering presence, stupendous power and simply being a reincarnated Hummer. I took it for a short spin on- and off-road at the General Motors Proving Grounds in Milford, Mich., and was impressed with the airy cabin, removable sky panels and expansive touchscreens. Yes, I crab walked, which felt like steering a pontoon boat, though I can see why it would be useful. Lucid Air Dream Performance The most beautiful sedan I tested all year, EV or otherwise. Unlike the futuristic Mercedes EQS — which is quite attractive — LucidÂ’s car is a blend of mid-century modern interior aesthetics and classic European exterior styling. When I walked up for my test drive, someone who IÂ’m pretty sure was comedian Jon Lovitz was sitting inside and taking it all in. As it sat in the valet of a hotel in a wealthy suburban enclave north of Detroit, the Lucid drew more attention than any of the Mercedes, Cadillacs or Lexus models passing by. The driving experience was enveloping. Starting at $169,000 for the Performance model (reservations are closed), the Lucid I sampled packed 1,111 hp and 471 miles of range. From the precise steering to the comfortable suspension, the dynamics were spot-on. It's a formidable product, and all the more impressive given itÂ’s LucidÂ’s first. Chevy Bolt EV The Bolt was the most pleasant surprise for me. It handled well, offered low-to-the-ground hot hatch dynamics and the steering was dialed-in. Adding a crossover variant for the new generation was a smart play. On a summer morning where I went to a first drive of the Ford Bronco at an off-road course, my hour-long commute in the Bolt was an enjoyable appetizer. The Bolt was also my biggest disappointment due to its extensive recalls for fire risk. Ironically, I had the Bolt in my driveway when the initial recall went out for the previous generation (2017-19).
The USPS needs 180,000 new delivery vehicles, automakers gearing up to bid
Wed, Feb 18 2015Winning the New York City Taxi of Tomorrow tender was a huge prize for Nissan, even though the company is still working through the process of claiming its prize. The United States Postal Service has begun the process to take bids for a new delivery vehicle to replace the all-too-familiar Grumman Long Life Vehicle, and that will be a much larger plum for the automaker who wins it, perhaps worth more than six billion dollars. The Grumman LLV is an aluminum body covering a Chevrolet S-10 pickup chassis and General Motors' Iron Duke four-cylinder engine. The USPS bought them from 1987 to 1994, and the 163,000 of them still in service are a monumental drain on postal resources: they get roughly ten miles to the gallon instead of the quoted 16 mpg, drink up more than $530 million in fuel each year, and their constant repair needs like the balky sliding door and leaky windshields have led the service to increase the annual maintenance budget from $100 million to $500 million. A seat belt is about as modern as it gets for safety technology, and the USPS says that assuming things stay the same, it can't afford to run them beyond 2017. Last year it put out two triage requests for proposals seeking 10,000 new chassis and drivetrains for the Grumman and 10,000 new vehicles. The LLV is also too small for the modern mail system in which package delivery is growing and letter delivery is declining. The service says it doesn't have a fixed idea of the ideal "next-generation delivery vehicles," but it listed a number of requirements in its initial request and is open to any proposal. Carriers have some suggestions, though, saying they want better cupholders, sun visors that they can stuff letters behind, a driver's compartment free of slits that can swallow mail, and a backup camera. The request for information sent to automakers pegs the tender at 180,000 vehicles that would cost between $25,000 and $35,000 apiece, and it will hold a conference on February 18 to answer questions about the contract. GM is the only domestic maker to avow an interest, while Ford and Fiat-Chrysler have remained cagey. Yet with a possible $6.3 billion up for grabs and some new vans for sale that would be advertised on every block in the country, we have a feeling everyone will be listening closely come February 18. We also have a feeling the LeMons series is going to be flooded with Grummans come 2017. News Source: Wall Street Journal, Automotive News - sub.
