1976 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Sunny Phoenix Arizona Classic 4x4 Barn Find Low Reserve on 2040-cars
Gilbert, Arizona, United States
Offered here today from IRISHINARIZONA is a very nice and RARE example of a cared for K5 Blazer! This is the very popular Gold with white HALF/CAB color combo. MILES ON 5 Digit ODO are 24,062 and will be exempt due to Age. Miles Unverified due to 5 digit odo. Looking at the brake pedals it seems possible but don't know. The K5 Blazer and Jimmy had "full convertible" removable tops until 1975. In 1976, GM introduced a half-cab design that was less prone to leaks and slightly safer in a roll-over. These half cabs are convertible starting at a few inches behind the driver/passenger doors all the way back to the tailgate. In 1992, the Blazer was redesigned completely and no longer had a removable top. It is a 5 digit odometer reading This Desert Southwest born and raised K5 is a real eye catcher. She isn't a trailer queen, but it gets noticed and is definitely in the top percentile considering all of the few 1976's that are alive and well. The front middle of hood has a ding, and there is a tiny patch of filler on inside of passenger fender. (see pic). This vehicle was passed down to multiple family members, and is a registered K5 in the State of Arizona. Feel free to have a friend or relative come by and inspect. We are honest, but a third party looker is always a confidence builder when buying from miles away. Ultimately to find a body like this on the East coast, it would have had to never leave the garage! Don't worry there are still a handful like this left, but they go quick. The windows are hand crank, and all glass is good!!!! TAKE A LOOK AT VIDEO AS WELL!!! Reserve is in the reasonable under 9k range... THIS ONE WILL SELL. Drivers side armrest is missing but it is in glovebox. Likewise with the rear view mirror. Dash has cover, but has a few cracks. Could be much worse being from the Sonoran Desert. Brandon 602-769-7133 All Due 3 days from close, PAYPAL ONLY FOR DEPOSIT. $400.00 or you can pay in FULL and get it shipped ASAP. Ask all questions prior to bidding and if you are a NON PAYING BIDDER this isn't the place for you. We don't chase down the bid, but have a company do it for us.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.

The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
