I ALWAYS add 3 ounces of stanadyne pump oil to fuel with every fill up. I dont let it get below 1/4 of a tank.
Has a new heater core.
Everything works.
Has upgraded glow plugs, starter relay, and glow plug controller.
Rear pintle hitch upgraded to pintle with 2 inch ball.
Has an original spare tire.
Has original fire extinguisher.
Comes with another top. (Had one left over from a salvage M1009 I bought).
Mileage will go up until the first bid. I will park it and not drive it anymore once it receives the first bid.
I have extras of all the hard to find items for these:
   Glow plug card
   Both alternators
   Tailgate crank
   Plastic covers for seat pivots
   Dash panel bezel
   Dash cover
   Brand new blackout lights
   Vacuum pump
   etc.
These items will be available to buyer only at an additional cost.  They are not included in auction!

Everything in this CUCV has been checked against and any repairs made strictly according to the technical military manuals.
Has the correct milspec batteries. (Never been ran down or jump started)
I upgraded the lockouts, but you can have the originals if you want them.
Kevlar goodyears have plenty of tread.

NO wiring has been hacked into on this one!
I am not afraid to drive anywhere in this truck and have taken it on several trips with NO issues.
I dont push it past 65 mph.

I had all paperwork on this truck from the North Dakota National Guard but I cannot find it. I have owned it for 6 years and the paperwork may have been thrown away? Paperwork stated it had a new engine at 40 some thousand miles, but without the paperwork, I have no way of proving that. I have no question with as good as it runs.

LED lights on grill guard are NOT included and have been removed. A friend of mine works for a light manufacturer that designed these for 24 volt vehicles and I tried them out for a couple years.

You can have what I have left of the stanadyne pump oil. (3 ounces to 30 gallons fuel) and I recommend using it to add the lubricity that today's diesel fuel is lacking.

Has original jack and jack handle.

Was never forklifted at auction lot. Was never listed as a non-runner.

Has a new high-torque starter with correct GM starter bracket to block.

Has been kept clean and indoors for the winter months here in South Dakota.

No rust through anywhere.

Original battery hold down brackets are included with auction and they are on the blazer now. ( I noticed in pictures they weren't installed. I had just installed the new batteries)


Only known issues:
Fan blower motor squeals a little bit sometimes.
Neither outer door lock is operable with key. (occasionally the passenger side will lock/unlock)
Small wrinkle on right rear lower fender behind tire( I back up onto a log in my back yard)(see pictures)
There is a spot on tailgate that has been repaired by the National Guard before I got it.(see pictures)

You could fly in and drive this home to anywhere you live. It has no issues that would prevent you from driving it home. I will even pick you up at the airport in the M1009.
It can sit here for 60 days. I will be moving at that time. That is my ONLY reason for selling this truck. It has been the most reliable, go-anywhere vehicle I have had over the past 6 years. I know I will regret selling it but life happens! These are getting phased out and are getting harder and harder to find in this condition that haven't been restored.

I can take videos, pictures of anything you want to see/hear, etc. My number is 605-858-3400 if you want to call and ask questions or whatever.

I HAVE THIS FOR SALE LOCALLY. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE THE LISTING AND END AUCTION AT ANY TIME. ONCE RESERVE IS MET, I WILL SELL IT TO HIGH BIDDER!!!

Autoblog's guilty pleasure cars

Tue, Mar 10 2015

Guilty pleasures are part of life – don't even try to pretend like you don't have one (or two, or six). In the non-automotive space, this could come down to that secret playlist in your iPhone of songs you'll only listen to when you're alone; or think of that one TV show you really do love, but won't admit to your friends. I've got plenty, and so do you. Going back to cars, here's a particularly juicy one for me: several years ago, I had a mad crush on the very last iteration of the Cadillac DTS. Oh yes, the front-wheel-drive, Northstar V8-powered sofa-on-wheels that was the last remaining shred of the elderly-swooning days of Cadillac's past. Every time I had the chance to drive one, I was secretly giddy. Don't hate me, okay? These days, the DTS is gone, but I've still got a mess of other cars that hold a special place in my heart. And in the spirit of camaraderie, I've asked my other Autoblog editors to tell me some of their guilty pleasure cars, as well – Seyth Miersma, as you can see above, has a few choice emotions to share about the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution. Read on to find out what cars make us secretly happy. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG This decadent convertible is the epitome of the guilty pleasure. It's big, powerful, fairly heavy and it's richly appointed inside and out. It's a chocolate eclair with the three-pointed star on the hood. Given my druthers, I'd take the SL65 AMG, which delivers 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. That output is borderline absurd for this laid-back convertible. I don't care. You don't need dessert. Sometimes you just crave it. The SL line is about the feel you get on the road. The roof is open. The air, sun and engine sounds all embrace you. It's the same dynamic you could have experienced in a Mercedes a century ago, yet the SL gives you the most modern of luxuries. An Airscarf feature that warms my neck and shoulders through a vent embedded in the seat? Yes, please. Sure, it's an old-guy car. Mr. Burns and Lord Grantham are probably too young and hip for an SL65. I don't care. This is my guilty pleasure. Release the hounds. – Greg Migliore Senior Editor Ford Flex I drove my first Flex in 2009 when my mother let me borrow hers for the summer while I was away at college. The incredibly spacious interior made moving twice that summer a breeze, and the 200-mile trips up north were quite comfortable.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota FCV Rally Car To Compete, Barra bullish on Chevy Volt

Fri, Oct 31 2014

The Toyota FCV will compete in the last stage of the 2014 Japanese Rally Championship. The sport-tuned hydrogen-powered car will tackle the 177-mile Shinshiro Rally on November 1 and 2, emitting no greenhouse gases in the process. The rally course will help prove the safety of the vehicle before it goes on sale in Japan in the next several months. The Toyota FCV, rumored to be called "Mirai" in Japan, will begin sales there before April, according to Toyota, and in the summer in the US and Europe. Read more in the press release below. Carsharing is becoming more popular, and more visible, throughout the world, including the US. According to WardsAuto columnist John McElroy, 18 percent of US drivers have used some sort of carsharing service. Additionally, he says 60 percent of Americans are familiar with Zipcar and Uber. Mercedes' Harald Kroeger says promotions like free parking for carshares in Stuttgart are encouraging growth for Daimler's carsharing service, Car2go. Read more at WardsAuto. Ethanol is being help up by rail transport, according to ethanol producer Green Plains. More and more stations are carrying E15 blend gasoline, but grain producers have complained that crude oil is given higher priority by the rail lines shipping it, which rail companies deny. Union Pacific and BNSF Railway say they are stepping up service to make sure that ethanol can be shipped reliably to customers. Read more at Omaha World-Herald. General Motors "has placed a significant bet [on] the electrification of the automobile," says CEO Mary Barra. In a speech to the Detroit Economic Club this week, she spoke about the Chevrolet Volt, and its importance to GM's future. While Barra admits the Volt's success has been "not everything we wanted," it has provided experience, and shows that EVs have "an important role in the future of GM." The new Volt is more refined, stores more energy, has longer range, uses less fuel and is a big investment for Michigan. She announced that the new Volt's electric drive system will be built in Warren, and that all of its major components will be made in Michigan. "Silicon Valley doesn't have a corner on the market for innovation, creativity and drive," says Barra. "These qualities exist here – in this region – as well."
