Being offered is a Full Size Chevrolet Blazer in great original shape.  This two owner truck has been well maintained and cared for and although not in perfect shape you can see what you are getting.  This is a very desirable year due to it being the last year without a catalytic converter, last year with the Dana front differential and the last year with the 12 Bolt rear end.  There are not many of these trucks out there that are this solid, yet all original.  Please do not hesitate to call me with any questions about this awesome truck, Tom 513 608-8121.

Exterior Highlights:  The exterior of the truck is in very good original shape as you can see in the pictures.  The truck still retains its mostly original Russet Metallic paint, most of which is in great shape on the very popular full size Blazer.  The truck is fitted with a removable white hard top which looks great on or off and completely changes the look and feel of this truck.  The exterior hardware is all in tact and the bright parts on the truck are in great shape.  This truck has a great stance with the rally wheels with excellent tires (about 6 months old). The truck is equipped with excellent chrome bumpers with factory bumper guards. The truck does have some rust, mainly in the quarters around the wheel openings.  As the photos indicate the amount of rust on this vehicle is pretty minor.  

Interior Highlights:  The interior of the truck as can be seen in the pictures is in excellent shape.  The bucket seats feature excellent vinyl seat covers and are very comfortable in this full size truck. The truck has a huge center console with cup holders. The truck has an excellent dash that is loaded with gauges.  The interior is loaded with creature comforts including push button AM/FM radio and cold blowing A/C.  There are numerous other options listed below.  The carpet, headliner, and door panels are in incredible original condition.   The truck still retains it original spare tire that has never been used.  If you have any questions about this unique vehicle please give me a call at 513 608-8121.  As the pictures show the interior is in excellent condition. 

Mechanical Highlights:  Mechanically this truck is 100% and equipped just the way you would want one.  The truck has a very clean engine compartment housing the original 350 Chevrolet V8 motor that starts and runs great.  The vehicle is equipped with functioning 4 wheel drive.  The vehicle is equipped with it’s original automatic transmission.  The undercarriage on this truck is super solid.  As is the rest of the truck, mechanically this truck is in great original condition.  This vehicle starts, runs, drives, and stops without any issues.

2014 Chevrolet Malibu gets more torque, more room and inspiration from the Impala

Fri, 31 May 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Malibu, having stared at the Impala across the showroom floor for a year, gets nips and tucks all over inspired by its larger brother. The 2.5-liter four-cylinder in the base car will get a stop-start system and 23 city miles per gallon, 35 highway, each number representing a one-mpg improvement over the 2013 car. Output is 196 horsepower and 186 pound-feet of torque.
Opt for the 2.0-liter turbo and, while power holds steady at 259 hp, torque goes up by 14 percent to a striking 295 lb-ft (a figure Chevy calls best in the class). The final details include newly programmed transmission shift points and faster shifts, for better engaging and enjoying the added power.
Looks-wise, the grille's been reshaped to be more in line with the new Chevrolet look, a narrower upper grille hovering over a larger lower grille.

Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
