Up for sale is my ’72 K5 Blazer. Originally from Phoenix, I have owned for the better part of 11 years. If you have ever owned one of these you will definitely appreciate the shape of this K5. Where do I begin to tell what has been done? The paint is Midnight Blue. Ok, If are like me, when you see these old rides with new or newer paint you can only wonder what is the paint hiding? This blazer was completely stripped before the new paint was applied, and absolutely no rust, filler, or damage was found (cost alone $10K). The paint is around 5yrs old, driven couple times a year and kept in a heated garage. During reassembly, the chrome and weather stripping were replaced. The top is a duel wall that needs minor work. The repairs to the top were done prior to paint, but top was off the Blazer, and now the minor things have resurfaced.     I have updated the headlights and harness. It has a crate 350 with less than 6,000 miles, 700R4 transmission with a shift kit. Flowmaster exhaust. Differentials have been gone through as well as the transfer case. New front drive line, steering, radiator, battery. It does have factory air but has not been used for 10yrs, so I am sure it needs to be recharged. Or just take the top off. Has original reupholstered seats. The side panels have been covered to match the seats. It does not have carpet because I cannot make up my mind. I have recently put in a stereo system (pictures do not show), but consists of a hard to find Alpine duel post, 2 – 6x9, 2-12”, Alpine 6 disc changer, and finished off with 2 Alpine amps. This vehicle does not come with a warranty, written or implied. It is over 40yrs old. If you have additional questions, or would like more picts, feel free to contact me (605)348-4936. If you have zero feedback please contact me prior to bidding. I will be advertising with many sources and reserve the right to end auction at any time. Buyer is responsible for pick up or transport fees. Thank you for viewing.

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.

Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega

Sat, 19 Oct 2013

Kurt 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.

Some 2012-13 Chevy Volts may not have enough battery coolant

Mon, Jun 23 2014

The 2012 and 2013 model year Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle may have a battery glitch caused by low coolant levels. No recall has been issued and General Motors is taking care of the issue at no cost to drivers. Some of the affected Volts may have lower-than-advisable coolant levels because of some pesky air pockets in the car's cooling circuit. When the coolant levels get too low, the charging system for the battery powering the car's onboard generator (i.e. the Rechargeable Energy Storage System, or the RESS) may be shut down, turning one's Volt into a run-of-the-mill gas-powered car, and a pricey one at that. The Car Connection says GM is advising owners of the '12 and '13 Volts to contact their local Chevy dealer for a free fix. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen for more details. We believe this is a separate issue than the one that brought 8,000 Volts back to the dealers for a battery coolant fix, what GM called a "voluntary customer satisfaction effort," a few years ago. General Motors sold 23,094 Chevy Volts last year after selling 23,461 Volts in 2012, so that fix-it list may get fairly lengthy. Check out a GM-Volt.com user thread related to this issue here. *UPDATE: Chevrolet spokesman Randy Fox confirmed in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen that the company issued a service bulletin to dealers that they may need to top off coolant levels on certain Volts because of the issue, and that the vehicle will "return to normal charging operation" once that's done.
