1988 Chevrolet K5 Blazer - All Original on 2040-cars
Haines, Oregon, United States
|
It was garaged for most of its existence as you'll see - no body rust, slight and NORMAL surface rust on muffler pipe and under in wheels but otherwise - great condition, and currently garaged. We live in Eastern Oregon, considered "high desert" so dry, dry climate. We also have a place in Stanislaus county, California so we can deliver. We'll be in that area so possible delivery - ask about those details. Our local mechanic could not believe how perfect and great shape the engine and all the working parts are, he said, they didn't even appeared worn at all. Original 350 engine, 114,00k original miles. We bought it with 105,368miles, took a trip to California and it drives smoother than my 2500HD Duramax!. Interior is all original, perfect condition. The air conditioner is the only thing that does not work. Heater is perfect, insta-hot, just like the old days. All original emblems. On the right side of the top, near the right side of the back window, there is some minor dent, probable running to something where the previous owners tried to bond - see detailed photo. Other that this there is just normal wear on this vehicle - no major dents! We just detailed it so it is pristine clean throughout. It has the original factory installed Cassette Player AM/FM Radio. Dash is original, perfect condition as it has been covered with the dash mat you see in the photos. Entire dash is in great shape, with original white paint, vents, knobs - all very nice. It is 4 wheel drive, with manual (aftermarket) Warn hubs, we have the original hubs if you want those. New tires with 8600mi on them - see photo showing the tread. While in detailing small spots of paint came off, so it may be an indication the hood was repainted at one point, not sure and previous owner did not know. A paint professional could tell you that - we just want to disclose all the information we know about. We added the grill guard, (another $900) due to the area we live in has lots of deer, so we wanted to protect the vehicle. We also added a second battery for extra starting power and we purchased but never installed the sliding back windows which we will include in this sale. Engine is clean, we can email you photos. Those of you enthusiast that know the value can appreciate, not only this rare model of vehicle in this condition but that all is original as you'll see these days - at this price. We wanted it, bought it, enjoyed it and now want to move on with our next project. Engine/ride is so smooth, quiet, truly a great vehicle. Call us with any questions. Mike 541-805-8886

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
