Survivor 1970 K5 Blazer 4x4 LS3/6L80E Twin turbo Flex fuel equipped
Body:the body on the truck is 90% ORIGINAL paint and 98% rust free.It has several dents and dings and shows its age accordingly.Most of the trim is dented up as well as are the chrome bumpers.To my knowledge the only body panel that is not original to the truck is the tail gate,but it has been painted and aged to match the truck almost perfectly. interior:Aside from the New Vintage gauge cluster,steering wheel from a 1992 GMC typhoon and a brand new Auto Custom Interiors rubber floor mat, the interior is 100% stock and in very good condition for its age.The passenger front seat has one small pin hole at the very front where you're legs would rest that is virtually un-noticable.The drivers seat as welll and the rear seat and all seat belts are very nice. Chassis:The frame is all original to the truck and 100% rust free.The front and rear differentials are original as well still retains lock out hubs that work perfectly,however,the front diff has been equipped with later model disk brakes,cross over steering and steering stabilizer all from a donor 1978 truck.Both front hubs have all new wheel bearings,seals,u-joints and ball joints.The rear diff retains the stock drum brakes but those too have been completely rebuilt/replaced.Its rolling on 15x10 factory GM rally wheels and bran new Mickey Thompson 31x10.5x15 tires Drive train:Late model engine and trans swap,40k mile LS3,and a 10K mile GM warrantied 6L80E auto transmission.The motor has been treated to a GM ZR1 camshaft,and PRC .675 lift dual spring valve springs,Holley High Ram intake manifold,welded smoothed and painted factory GM valve covers and a coil relocation kit.The radiator has been replaced with a new aluminum unit that supports the dual 4th generation Camaro fan assembly.The engine and trans perform flawlessly as they should and feed into a rebuilt NP208 transfer case which turns brand new front and rear drive shafts Turbo System:Twin Turbo System consists of 2 GM factory 2012 Camaro exhaust manifolds that have been welded and fitted with the correct flanges to bolt 2 GM Grand National turbos,which feed a Precision Turbo front mount air to air inter-cooler which then feed the C6 Z06 90mm throttle body to the intake manifold.All producing a very conservative and reliable 8 PSI of boost The truck is running on a factory 2007 Corvette computer with speed density tuning,and has been wired for a factory appearing and functioning Flex fuel system.Which means that there are absolutely no adjustments or changes needed to pump in either gasoline or E85 directly into the fuel tank. Odds and Ends: the fuel system consists of a 1992 Ford Bronco II gas tank that has been modified with a rear sump to feed the 2 walboro 255 fuel pumps and factory Grand National fuel filters before being wye'd together and feeding a set of Holley billet fuel rails.The motor was mounted using a Dirty Dingo replacement front cross member.while the trans was mounted using a slightly modified factory cross member. The exhaust system is 100% stainless steel dual 2.5" down pipes feeds into an SLP stainless 2 into 1, 3.5" tail pipe that exits on the drivers side and is probably quieter than the stock system this truck came with. The truck was built and tuned by Speed Incorporated out of Schaumburg IL,it made 491 rear wheel horse power on 93 octane and 525 rear wheel horsepower on E85.I bnuilt the truck to do it all,light off roading mostly at the Silver Lake dune are in MI,the occasional drag race but most of all to be a fun daily driver that I can hook my boat to an throw my dirt bikes in and just have fun.The truck is an absolute blast to drive and unless you are at wide open throttle or nearly it drives like a stock vehicle.I would not hesitate for one minute over driving this from coast to coast. I am the 3rd owner it spent all its life on the western sea board and that is the reason there is no rust on it.I spent the better part of last summer trying to find a truck that was a rust free as this one,and the payoff is here.I have quit a bit of original documentation from the previous owners that can trace it back to when it was new,or nearly new. recently installed center console and original 4 wheel drive selector lever that are not in the pictures I will not take low ball offers,by no means do I have to sell it an truthfully I'm not even sure I want to. Has less that 150 miles on current engine/transmission combination please fell free to email or call me with concerns,questions or other picture requests,I probably have another 50 pictures if interested please email me Dan 815-719-0756 |

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit
Mon, 04 Mar 2013We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.
