Being offered is a Full Size Chevrolet Blazer in great original shape.  This two owner truck has been well maintained and cared for and although not in perfect shape you can see what you are getting.  This is a very desirable year due to it being the last year without a catalytic converter, last year with the Dana front differential and the last year with the 12 Bolt rear end.  There are not many of these trucks out there that are this solid, yet all original.  Please do not hesitate to call me with any questions about this awesome truck, Tom 513 608-8121.

The truck is equipped with excellent chrome bumpers with factory bumper guards. The truck does have some rust, mainly in the quarters around the wheel openings.  As the photos indicate the amount of rust on this vehicle is pretty minor.  

Interior Highlights:  The interior of the truck as can be seen in the pictures is in excellent shape.  The bucket seats feature excellent vinyl seat covers and are very comfortable in this full size truck. The truck has a huge center console with cup holders. The truck has an excellent dash that is loaded with gauges.  The interior is loaded with creature comforts including push button AM/FM radio and cold blowing A/C.  There are numerous other options listed below.  The carpet, headliner, and door panels are in incredible original condition.   The truck still retains it original spare tire that has never been used.  If you have any questions about this unique vehicle please give me a call at 513 608-8121.  As the pictures show the interior is in excellent condition. 

Mechanical Highlights:  Mechanically this truck is 100% and equipped just the way you would want one.  The truck has a very clean engine compartment housing the original 350 Chevrolet V8 motor that starts and runs great.  The vehicle is equipped with functioning 4 wheel drive.  The vehicle is equipped with it’s original automatic transmission.  The undercarriage on this truck is super solid.  As is the rest of the truck, mechanically this truck is in great original condition.  This vehicle starts, runs, drives, and stops without any issues.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four 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.

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
