1979 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Cheyenne. Original 2 wheel drive with removable top. This is a solid Texas truck with very minimal rust in the lower rear wheel wells. Has a 350 with Edlebrock intake and 3 speed auto transmission. Air conditioning works and was refreshed last year. Strong running truck that I drive in the Florida heat everyday with no problems. All lights and signals work.

All the following was done within the past year: New harmonic balancer, new MSD distributor, new plugs & wires, new Interstate battery with 6 year warranty, rebuilt Quadrajet carb, front and rear brakes, rebuilt rear window motor, new rear window cable, new Flowmaster 40 series full exhaust with stainless pipes. New rear axle bearings and rear end grease. Lowered with DJM dropped spindles and springs with Belltech shocks. C notched rear has been professionally welded in place. I have receipts and invoices for all the parts. And photos of all the work.

I purchased this truck from an elderly gentleman who moved to Florida from Texas. The story was that he got it from a couple in Oklahoma where it was stored in a barn. They stored the truck in a barn after it was recovered from being stolen. Later, someone pulled out in front of him and the front passenger fender and the corner of the front bumper took the hit. I had an original 79 GM front fender hung and straightened out the core support. The fender has some lower rust, but we cut the old fender and saved it for the repair patch. Haven't gotten around to welding it on, and didn't figure we would be able to match the paint, so we left it for the time being. Replaced the front bumper, bumper support, grille, and both headlight bezels.  I have extra emblems and a replacement gauge bezel.

This truck gets a lot of attention and is very reliable. There aren't very many original 2 wheel drive "Round Eye" Blazers left. And even less that are this solid.

You can reach me at 813-666-9033 with any questions. I have the Florida title in hand, in my name. I reserve the right to end the auction early. And of course this is an AS-IS sale. No returns. Thanks, Gary.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

2010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall

Wed, 13 Mar 2013


The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
