Up for auction my 1979 Blazer I bought it a few months ago as a toy and have decided that I would rather finish up my boat. 
I purchased from a dealership in Denver Colorado details below: 

*5.7 Chevy 350 (throttle body injection) TBI
*350 Turbo Transmission
*JBA Headers
*3 Inch Exhaust 
*Air raid intake
*TBI Throttle body spacer 
*Brand new battery
*BF Goodrich KM2 35in tires 
*6in Procomp Lift 
*Power windows and Locks 
*Keyless entry 
*New Rear Differential and Gears 
*Spicer Rear drive shaft 
*Alpine CD player 
*New Serpentine belt, pulleys and tension-er
*12 bolt rear end 
*10 bolt front axle

Exterior: 
I can with out a doubt say this blazer is 100% rust free which is very hard to come buy from a 1979, the vehicle has been painted satin orange. The paint job is at best "driver quality". The glass in the blazer is in great shape, the rear glass has some window tint film that is pealing due to cracked weather stripping which I have not had time pull off yet. The BFG tires are pretty much new shape I would say 90-95% tread left, the K5 sits on a 6 in Pro comp suspension lift. 

Interior: 
The interior came from the dealership with a bench seat which appeared to come out of a older Chevy pickup, since owning I have obtained the original bucket seats and center column. I am currently in the process of replacing the seats with ORIGINAL seat covers not junk you buy at the local parts store, The company sent me two front covers and a rear seat cover sewn factory original. I have all receipts over $1000 in interior upgrades since purchasing, I have one seat recovered and will continue to replace the remaining. I will also be replacing the interior carpet with better than factory replacement the kit comes with in a 3 pieces front back, and rear fender wells, the carpet has mass backing on it for much improved sound deadening.

Engine/Trans: 
The vehicle came with a newer style 350 TBI and a 350 trans, it also has power steering, power brakes. I have been driving this back in forth to work for a couple months 30 miles round trip and the K5 has been running very well. 

Can help with shipping arrangements for the winning bidder 
Winning bidder is required to make a pay pal deposit to my account for the amount of $1000.00 with in 48 hrs of auction end
The reserve price is set at the purchase price I paid just 3 months ago from the dealership in Colorado

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.

Will Chevy Bolt get Opel badge in Europe?

Sat, Mar 7 2015

General Motors' European plug-in vehicle name may go from A to B. That's because the Chevrolet Bolt could be sold under GM's Opel brand across the Pond, Automotive News Europe says, citing people familiar with the process that it declined to identify. The Ampera, the European version of the Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle, is being phased out due to poor sales. While the Ampera won the European Car of the Year in 2012, its sales have trended well below expectations. That the Bolt would be sold as an Opel hints to us that GM expects to distribute the electric vehicle in far smaller numbers than in the US. The Bolt, which was introduced in January in its concept version at the North American Auto Show in Detroit, will have a single-charge range of about 200 miles. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGeen on Friday afternoon. The car will also have a price tag in the US of about $30,000, factoring in federal-government tax incentives. That's if those tax incentives are still around in 2017, when the Bolt is expected to debut stateside.

2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
