Pineville, Pennsylvania, United States

This is a one owner 1993 full size blazer that I drove daily through 2004 then it was parked at our farm and driven around there a couple times before being parked basically out of use.  It sat for a couple years whereupon I decided I'd start to drive it again [I always really liked it].  I put in a battery, a little fresh gas and tried to fire it up - no go. So I put some gas in the throttle body and it started right up.  Diagnosis no fuel - bad fuel pump.  Instead of trying to replace the fuel pump and whatnot since I am not the mechanic I was 10 years ago..... I'm selling it here with low reserve. 

It is a solid truck for someone to fix up or lift or do something cool with I'm just not skilled enough to do it.  It's like a barn find.

It needs at the very least a fuel pump, fuel filter, exhaust from the catalytic converter back and a very thorough cleaning inside.  All the fluids are old.  I'm the only person who ever drove it.

I kept this truck because I always liked it a lot and figured that I'd put a plow on it or someday drive it again but I have too many cars and trucks [please see my other listings] basically I'm cleaning up around the farm and my various properties. 

This truck is a perfect candidate for Overhaulin' or any other car fixup show. 

Passed PA inspection in 5/2003 with 208,240 miles - driven 5,000 miles since. 

Previous inspection mileage was 193,995.

New fuel pump, filter and exhaust parts are included....

the thorough cleaning it needs, unfortunately, is not.

The rear carpet is not salvageable but the rest of the carpets should be ok with shampoo.  Back seat was never really used - passenger seat is OK too.

Up until when I stopped using this truck it always ran great and was well maintained.

Has a 5.7 / 350 engine & 4 speed auto trans w/OD.  Replaced the trans with a factory rebuilt unit at some point.

See photo of window sticker for details on specs.

Has K5A4 Preferred Group - Sport Package

Heavy duty trailering package / Off road chassis package / Locking rear differential / 6,250 GVW - 3.42 rear.

Noted issues-

The driver side door is hard to open and close - needs oiling.

The driver seat is a little off - it has a small hole and the frame was welded before.

The driver side door mirror is cracked.

Both rear tires have slow leaks and are probably no good from being flat.

The tailgate is stuck closed and the lift cylinders on the rear glass are bad.

There is a small dent on the passenger side by the rear wheel.

There are a couple rust spots on the hood that are quarter to half dollar size.

All glass is OK no cracks were observed.

Driver door panel and armrest are pretty worn and the button caps from the power window buttons are missing.

Original window sticker, spare tire and owner's manual included.

I'm no expert but it is 100% original [other than the radio] and has to be a straight solid truck - was never in any accidents.

Please review the description and pictures carefully before bidding. 

I'll gladly answer any questions and post more pictures if requested.  The motor is 100% stock and I forgot to take a picture of it.  Will do asap.

All sales are final, no warranty, this sells as-is and will need repairs to be considered drivable. 

Terms - F.O.B. 18946; $500 minimum deposit by paypal within 24 hours or payment in full if you prefer. 

Please do not bid if you do not plan to buy, don't have the money or have not read the description carefully. 

Must be towed away.  I will help load.

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.

800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
