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.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4

Wed, 29 May 2013

Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
