Up for sale is my S-10 Pro-Street Blazer. It has a 383 Stroker motor with a TH-400 trans with a switch pitch converter. A button on the shifter selects either 2000 or 4000 stall. It has a Ford 9in. rear with 4.10 gears, posi and disk brakes. It has 2in. drop spindles on the front. The body is in good condition. There is a small rust spot just behind the drivers side rear wheel and a couple small dings but the doors shut solid. The electric windows work well and the car sits very nice. The interior is very nice. The Cyber-Dyne instrument panel lights up but I have not tried the stereo. As you can see from the pictures the front clip is off the car. The previous owner was going to put a fiberglas front end on it. I was planning on a 2in. cowl . I do have all the original parts. Including  a Griffin aluminum radiator with dual electric fans and separate trans cooler. Because of  a lot of different reasons the car had to sit for several years. During that time mud dauber wasps set up home inside the engine. That is in two of the cylinder bores. Which is why the engine is apart. I was hoping I could use a hand hone to clean the bore but now I think it would be better to remove the block and machine hone the cylinders. The previous owner told me the engine has less than 500 miles on it.  The engine is still very tight with no ridge in any of the cylinders. The car was originally built as a high 9 low 10 second street car using a Pro charger so the bottom end is very well built. It's a full roller motor with Speed Pro roller lifters and Lunati rockers. It comes with brand new cnc'd Pro Comp aluminum heads with guides and stud girdles. A new Holley Street Avenger 770 carb. All polished billet brackets, valve covers, breathers and pulleys. A new chrome alternator. A new water pump and chrome air cleaner. New gaskets and stainless socket head hardware. There is also a very well built set of tri-y headers. It has a Victor Jr intake. This set up should get 500 hp. Now for the reasons I'm not doing it myself. First is a 1988 Mustang GT and the other is a 1970 SS396 Nova race car. Both run but both are very needy. Anyway the Blazer is an excellent car that for a bit of time and effort should be an absolute beast on the street.  E-mail any questions or if you want to talk I can give you my phone number. Also because of the amount of loose parts every thing can not be packed inside the car for shipping.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
