For sale is a very well preserved 1988 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer 4x4 with the “S-10 Sport” Package. It has the 4.3 liter V6 fuel injected engine with automatic transmission. There are 276k miles on the car, though it doesn’t show it one bit. The engine runs strong with no smoke or problems. Automatic transmision shifts smoothly as it should. This blazer started out its life as being driven by a traveling salesman for approximately 8 years. 273k miles were put on it during that time. Then it was retired and stored inside for the next 17 years. Prior to storage, it had major mechanical work done, along with brand new paint job by Green Chevrolet, a local Chevy dealer. The car dealer (who had bought it from the original owner) said the owner had dumped over 7 grand into bringing it back to life. Unfortunately, I do not have any receipts concerning all the work it had done in the past. I even asked my trusted mechanic who has 35 years experience and he could tell me that it had a considerable amount of work done in the past. The paint was very well done and along with that, the undercarriage was undercoated. Fast forward 17 years later... I noticed it being for sale in a local auto trader catalog and went to look at it. I was immediately amazed how great it ran and how stunning it looked. There is no rust and the interior is immaculate as well, near perfect and completely stock; all down to the original floor mats and radio. All seats are in perfect shape, with no rips, tears or stains. The carpet is also stain free and in excellent shape. It has power locks and windows which all work. This blazer has been well maintained all of its life and that’s why it is in such good shape today. 4x4 works great. The tires are in great shape and have lots of tread left. I had just put a NOS Blazer tire cover on the back which looks great. This is one of the few remaining blazers that is mechanically sound and isn't missing the lower 6 inches. I'm not trying to make anything on this car, just get what I have in it. I just want someone to appreciate it for what it is; they don't make cars like this anymore. Email with any questions. FYI...I am a 17 year old boy who just discovered speed, this car, although amazing, no longer fits my needs. Thanks for reading.

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin 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.
2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th
Tue, 15 Apr 2014It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
