1984 Chevy Blazer, Recently Restored, Turn Key Ready! on 2040-cars
DeKalb, Illinois, United States
1984 K5 Blazer 4X4. Professionally restored 2yrs ago. Originally built for off road use until RPM Restorations got there hands on it. Now it's a weekend driver that has been used a couple times, gently offroad. Just enough to prove to myself that it is able to perform the way it was intended.
It has a 7.4 liter/454 GM crate motor, a "Hot Cam" from GM Performance Parts, RPM intake, and a Holly 750 Carburetor. TH400 transmission, custom built, mild converter, aftermarket valvebody. Painless wiring harness. Custom built Dash with Autometer gauges. NP205 transfer case, completely rebuilt, twin stick. Dana 60 front axle, 4.56 gears. Rebuilt Yukon locker. Heim joint crossover steering. Dana 70 rear axle, 4.56 gears, open, rebuilt. Anti wrap bar. H1 double beadlock wheels, 36"Goodyear OZ tires. Everything listed above is new or has been rebuilt 3700 miles ago. The Blazer started off with a rust free body with the exception of the doors which were replaced with new ones. The hood had a dent so it was replaced as well. The front fenders were cut for wheel clearance.It has new door handles and latches. All the chrome is in excellent condition. It has a custom role cage tied to the body. The top has been completely removed to give it the look of a 1974 blazer. It has a full soft top with sides that role up or the top can be completely removed. The Original odometer shows 40k miles (I couldn't tell you for sure whether that reading is actual or not). The newly installed Autometer odometer shows 3700 miles which is acurate since the rebuild. It was built to drive, not as a trailer queen or show car although it did win the peoples choice award at the Turning Back Times car show in Sycamore, IL in 2013 (over 2000 vehicles in attendance). It appraised for $25k in August of 2013. All work on this truck was professionally done with no short cuts! I HATE to see I go but I have 3 boys are keeping me plenty busy so I have no time to enjoy it. THE RESERVE IS SET VERY LOW. IF YOU BID BE PREPARED TO BUY! $1000.00 Deposit required within 24hrs of sale ending unless prior arrangements are made. Full payment due no later than 7 days of auction ending. |

GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
