For sale: One-repaint survivor high desert dry Montana 70 Chevy K5 CST Blazer 4x4. I purchased the truck from a local guy that I believe was the 2nd owner, he had the truck 20 years and maintained it well and it shows. He was into these 67-72 trucks and upgraded to the 71-72 disk brake front end and posi rear. The truck is in great condition with no rot or rust. He had the rig repainted 15 years ago at a quality shop here in town, and it's still in good condition. Minor rust repair was done, but nothing major. Here in the land of sagebrush and prickly pear cactus, we only see 10 inches of total moisture per year and no salt is used on the roads, so we don't see rust issues. Truck still has factory chalk marks under hood and underneath! This Blazer is ready to use as is and I'll do my best to describe it below.

Exterior: Paint is in good condition and truck looks great The casual observer won't find any flaws. Car show nit-pickers will find a few small chips that were touched up on cowl and driver door. NO rot or rust, minor repairs were done when the truck was repainted in the factory dark blue color 15 years ago that include rockers, one spot behind passenger rear wheel and a couple of small spots where windshield seal leaked near kick panel/footwell. We don't see rust or rot issues in this arid country- there's just no moisture. I have owned many of these trucks, and I think this is one of the driest I have ever seen, owing to years of meticulous care and proper storage. Underside of truck is super clean - floors, etc all look nice and dry - will add link to more pics underneath. Glass is good and windshield is new. It really is an honest rig, you can see that it's very straight and dry overall. Chrome in good condition with no pitting. Grille surround is in fairly good shape with only a few dings. Grille center bar has a pretty big scratch/ding as shown. Front bumper has a few dings. Rally wheels are in good shape with new trim rings.

Interior: All original except front seat covers and very presentable. Factory A/C truck, but previous owner robbed most of the stuff for another 2WD shortbox truck he had, figuring this was a 4wd and didn't need A/C! Most of the stuff is readily available to make it functional again. Front seats had a few rips , so I had them recovered with the correct upholstery from Classic Industries. Driver door panel has a couple small tears as shown. Headliner and visors good. Original dashpad in good shape, gauge bezel shows wear. Original carpet shows wear but isn't torn up. Rear CST panels were cut at the very back for storage of some kind behind rear seat, they are available reproduction. Original steering wheel has the usual cracks. Everything seems to work except temp gauge and of course A/C. Aftermarket stereo was installed and woks. Heater switch failed and previous owner installed external switch on bottom of dash out of sight. Overall really nice shape for a truck of this age and no issues to drive and use.

Mechanical: Starts, runs, drives out well, no major issues - 350 4 barrel engine runs smooth and pulls hard and trans shifts well. I had a professional mechanic inspect and drive the truck and he gave it a great review with the only possible repair needed being new U-joints. Shortblock was replaced at 96k miles, not the VIN matching original engine now but the code on pad decodes to a 1970 350 4 barrel engine! Heads were replaced at 113k miles. Oil pressure is good and no noticeable smoke or significant leaks other than the typical valve seal puff at startup once in a while. I tested the 4 x 4 and transfer case and everything seem to work fine. Truck doesn't seem heat at all. Exhaust is stock type and quiet. Everything on the truck appears to work except temp gauge and A/C from what I can tell. Tires are 33 x 12.50 and are not cracked, and have a season of tread left. Like all these short wheelbase rigs with huge tires, it will follow the ruts on some roads. On good roads it's fine. I had a complete front end inspection and alignment done and it's up to you if you want to live with it or swap to smaller tires. I've put a couple hundred miles on and from what I can tell, the truck ready to use and enjoy. This Blazer has the stock suspension with no lift other than slightly stiffer springs and a 1" block at the rear to offset the factory sag and give it a more aggressive stance.

Pricing/Misc: I got a good deal on this rig and you will too. These trucks in good condition sell for double my reserve, which is under $9500 for quick sale. A similar 72 Blazer just sold for $18k here on Ebay and it needed paint. Title is clear with no lien and signed off and notarized and ready to fill in your name as purchaser. THANKS

GOOD LUCK! Keep in mind that with all cars, THEY LOOK BETTER IN PICTURES THAN IN PERSON.

GM and Isuzu to partner for medium-duty commercial truck

Tue, Jun 16 2015

General Motors is returning to the medium-duty truck business in the US for the first time since 2009 thanks to a new deal with longtime-partner Isuzu. The arrangement brings the Isuzu N-series models to Chevrolet dealers with the Bowtie's branding on them in 2016. There are six medium-duty Chevy models arriving at dealers in regular cab and crew cab bodies: the 3500, 3500HD, 4500, 4500HD, 5500, and 5500HD. The trucks will be sold as a bare chassis for buyers to outfit to their needs. Depending on model, customers will have the choice of an Isuzu-sourced 3.0-liter and 5.2-liter diesel engines or a 6.0-liter V8 gasoline-fueled engine from GM and six-speed gearbox. According to company spokesperson Bob Wheeler to Autoblog, the diesel models will be built in Japan and the rest assembled from knockdown kits in Charlotte, MI. This kind of vehicle sharing isn't uncommon for GM in the commercial segment, and it already partners with Nissan to use the Japanese brand's NV200 as the City Express van. The General also once owned a significant stake in Isuzu, and the two have remained collaborators even since then. Isuzu and GM Enter Commercial Vehicle Collaboration Agreement in the U.S. 2015-06-15 DETROIT and FUJISAWA, Japan – General Motors Co. (NYSE: GM) and Isuzu Motors (TSE 7202) have reached an agreement on a U.S. commercial vehicle collaboration, allowing Isuzu to strengthen its product lineup and GM to expand its commercial vehicle portfolio. Isuzu will produce low cab forward models for GM, based off of the Isuzu N-Series. The vehicles will be distributed by participating Chevrolet dealers in the U.S. market starting in 2016. To strengthen the product lineup, GM and Isuzu will explore the use of GM commercial vehicle components for Isuzu low cab forward trucks and GM will continue to produce and supply the 6.0L V-8 gas engine and six-speed transmission for Isuzu gasoline-powered low cab forward trucks. Isuzu and GM have maintained a strategic partnership for more than 40 years, producing collaborative business opportunities throughout the world. This agreement continues that tradition and reinforces a long-term relationship that helps to explore future collaborations in the U.S. commercial vehicle business. About General Motors General Motors Co. (NYSE:GM, TSX: GMM) and its partners produce vehicles in 30 countries, and the company has leadership positions in the world's largest and fastest-growing automotive markets.

2016 Chevy Silverado unveiled in full at Texas State Fair

Thu, Sep 24 2015

It's State Fair time down in the Lonestar State, which means a lot of things to a lot of Texans: rodeos, cook-offs, country music concerts, big belt buckles, and even bigger hats. But it also means new trucks. Ford used the occasion this year to roll out its new F-Series Super Duty pickups, but the Blue Oval won't have the show all to itself as Chevy is also on hand to reveal in full its latest updates to the Silverado. The Bowtie brand gave us our first glimpse at its updated 1500-series pickup back in July, but has now revealed the revised truck in full – and not just in Z71 spec, either. Buyers will be able to choose between WT, LS, LT, LTZ, and High Country trim levels Â– to say nothing of the various cab, box, and powertrain configurations. The top three get all-LED exterior lighting. And while the Z71 adopts the color-keyed trim we saw previously, other models like the LT, LTZ, and (to a lesser extent) the top-of-the-line High Country still bring the chrome for those who want it. Whichever the model, the new Silverado boasts a more muscular-looking front-end and a more sculpted hood. Inside, the new Silverado gets an optional MyLink system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support. The revised truck also benefits from added safety technology and convenience features. Engine options include a 4.3-liter V6 with 285 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque, a 5.3-liter V8 with 355 hp and 383 lb-ft, and a 6.2-liter V8 with 420 hp and 460 lb-ft. The news when it comes to powertrains is that the eight-speed automatic launched last year on the larger V8 is now being offered on the smaller 5.3 as well. 2016 Silverado: The New Face of Strong 2016 Silverado designed to build on Chevrolet's truck momentum 2015-09-24 - Bolder, more muscular look reflects Silverado strength, dependability - Expanded use of 8-speed transmissions; additional safety technologies - Available support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto DALLAS Â– The new 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 brings muscular designs and new customer-focused technologies to the most dependable, longest-lasting family of full-size pickups on the road. The new Silverados make their public debut today at the State Fair of Texas in Dallas. "The new 2016 Silverado will build on the Chevy truck legacy of dependability," said Sandor Piszar, marketing director for Chevrolet trucks.
