1972 was the last year of the First Generation Blazers. As such this truck has the desirable fully removable top leaving only the wind in your hair. This double walled top is in good condition for its age all of the glass is there without any chips cracks or scratches. The back latch lifts up easily and stays up. the new weather stripping all around keeps the elements out. 


The engine is an economical yet still powerful 307 SBC with a reliable 2 barrel carb on a duel plane manifold. It starts up easily every time and has a deep lumpy great sounding idle thanks to Flowmaster exhaust with brand new pipes. The ignition is a GM HEI Distributor with new Cap and Rotor & 7mm wires and new Accel shorty header Sparkplugs. 

The Trasmission in a Turbo TH350 with a new filter, and chrome pan and new gasket. it dose not leak here. Only leaking issue with this truck is the slight ATF leak that is coming from the back of the tranny where it joins the NP205 Transfer Case, it is currently missing the gasket there. Although I have purchased the gasket  and O-ring kit and it will come with the truck, I have not been able to install it yet. This leak dose not affect the driveability much of the truck, rather it is just annoying to me. The transfer case if fulled with Amsoil Synthetic gear lube, as is the rear end, which also recently got a new gasket and dose not leak.

The inner Fender wells were removed for better access to the engine bay in the pictures. They will be re-installed before pick up.

Other parts recently replaced: 
  • New 22 gal Fuel Tank with new Sending Unit. As you may know these tanks eventualy can rust out and leak, this one is brand new from Brothers, and is painted with truck bed liner on the outside to prevent scratching. The dash Fuel Gauge dosn't work so it will need to be replaced.
  • New Brakes all the way around. Front disk with new Pads and Rotors with rebuild Calipers professionally installed. Rear Drums have fresh pads and rebuilt kit with a well functioning Parking Brake.
  • New Idiot 5 position Tilt Steering Column, with a new style safe colapesable Intermediate Link and a rebuilt Stearing Box all profesionaly installed. It steers smoothly and has a very tight turning radius, lock to lock under power with no grinding at all.
  • New exaust pipes hooked up to Flowmasters, it sounds great!!
  • New stock sized Shocks at all 4 wheels.  This truck has a 3 inch body lift which makes it easy to get under an service when needed. 
  • New interior Vinyl Floor Mat in the cab area.  The rest of the truck's  interior has been coated with Rustolium Truck bed liner to provide years of service.
  • New windsiled wipers, and the Winshield Wiper motor works well on High and Low speeds.
The Good: Basically this truck is good to go. It starts, runs, drives, steers, and stops well. Good street & trails driver but a little slow on the highways. All head lights and running lights work. Most of the Fluids have been recently changed, including new ATF, Brake Fluid, Oil, Amsoil Synthetic Gear Lube for Transfer case and Rear end.
 Interior is in good shape ready for people to enjoy. Very comfortable. Tilt Steering helps out allot! All the windows roll up with a little effort. Doors shut solid. Weather stripping is new. Seats are in great shape. Chrome trim all around you. I put in some water resitant seat covers which have multiple zipper and velcro pockets on the sides and in the back for all your needs. Rear Vinyl seat is in decent shape with only a small tear on the arm rest in the back. No rips in the rear seat itself. Over all the White top is in great shape for its age! But the rear Hatch Latch dose not Lock.

Lots of Chrome: Chrome Door Threshold and Still Plates. Solid Chrome Bumpers front and back. Chrome Driver side Mirror. New Chrome wheel trim on all 4. Chrome Transmission Pan. Good Tires. plenty of tread on 33's. Subtle 3" lift kit makes it a nice head turner and easy to work underneath. Clean Title.

The Bad: Some minor elecricals like; Dash Fuel Gauge dosn't work. Some Dash light are out. No Horn Button. The Heating and AC Ducts have been taken out cus they were stinky and filled with 40 years of dust, these need to be replaced. The Heater and AC Fan dosn't work, and the origonal AC has been taken out by the previous owner not me....But Who needs it anyways just have a few guys help you take the top off and enjoy the sun and wind! Annoying ATF leak..needs gasket installed behind the transfer case adaptor which is included in sale.
Some minor body scratches, on the passeger side. Some body rot in the driver side rear quater panel. A little rust on the bottoms of the doors. Tailgate has a dent just below the Rear latch. See the pictures to tell for yourself. This is my best honest assesment of this truck. I regret selling it but it needs to go, family is expanding.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When 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.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.
