Honest 1972 Chevy Blazer driver door skin repaired early 80s. This truck is all original & has a very solid frame. I'm the 2nd owner. It's a super rare truck that is always going up in value and unless your neighbor next store has one you just don't see them very often....This truck is in need of some small amounts of sheet metal work in a few areas only.

Some rust & bubbling in the paint not bad for a 41 year old truck. Driver door skin was replaced in the early 80's do to pulling up to close to a pay phone and could use work again being 30 years has past. Small rust area on passenger side front fender & driver side rear quarter up top has rust but only the outer sheet metal rusted off not rusted threw. Very honest & original truck frame,body panels,paint,& interior w/tach & a very desirable single wall top most people want over the double wall see all photos.  
  Take a good look at this truck not much to do to get it all done without all the Chinese body panel parts .  Some of these other Chevy Blazers you see selling for 25-30 thousand dollars you may or may not know what your getting. They look really nice! but you have to ask yourself do you really got an all American Classic or not  . Don't be shy to ask the sellers for some before body and paint photos if your spending thousand of dollars on one . You may be surprised of what answers you'll get . The rocker panels ,rocker boxes, doors & windshield frame are most common to rust complicity out on these trucks. This truck still has them intact. The bottoms of the doors where your seeing the bubbling in the paint are also common areas for rust to start . As for the interior of this K5 its in great condition! The dash was never cut for an over sized radio/CD player to fit in the space of an older style AM radio that in itself is rare! most of the time they have been cut out to make them fit 
   This old gal still has all the original seats & vinyl upholstery with NO rips or tares on the two front buckets or rear bench. As you see with these other Chevys online this also is a rare commodity. If they were easy to find seats they would be inside them 25-30 thousand dollar cars and some are but then some aren't. 
   Floors are solid no rust holes at all, front windshield frame is also solid no rust there,driver & passenger side floor pans are also common to rust out . This blazer still has them in tact and just has some surface rust from moisture from the carpet. It also has the original carpet that needs replaced. I would suggest having the floors rhino lined so that you don't get the moister problems that caused the surface rust to start in the first place before a carpet replacement. 
    It has a 4"lift but not hard to get into it sits head to head with the new GMC trucks hight. I didn't get around to fixing the exterior of the truck I focused mainly on the internal parts. This truck has a mild RVcam & edelbrock manifold with an edelbrock1408 carb & a hei distributor runs really good sounds nice!   Also I've done rear drums,shoes,front rotors ,calipers,front pads,pitman arm, drag link inner & outer & new battery all in 2013. I wanted to be sure of the reliability of the truck as this trucks weight is a lot to have to push off the road. Unless your built like Arnold Schwarzenegger was in the 80's where this trucks stops is where it sits so it was important to me to be sure of its good running condition. Still has some good rubber on the tires around 80%.  Also let me say that this is my weekend cruiser and milage will change as I still enjoy driving it on sunny days. This Chevy Blazer  is being sold as is and the buyer will be responsible of pickup or shipping arrangements . I reserve the right to end this auction at any time do to it being for sale locally.   
   This can be a great project for the upcoming winter months and needs to go to someone who has been looking for that all original Chevy K5 blazer. Act fast as these tend to go up in value in the spring. I feel I've got it priced right at the (buy it now price) as there is a little work that still needs done. It's under value at my reserve. So buy now and save and work on it at your own pace. The last photo you see in the listing is a completed and fully restored Chevy Blazer not the one for sale in this listing but this is how they look restored .   
  If it don't sell then you'll see it in the spring as a completed project with a much higher price tag with before,during restoration & completion of work photos having no hidden body filler & new metal going in place as this old gal deserves it

PAYMENTS:  Will be non refundable $1000 dollar deposit do immediately at auction end with Paypal or bank wire and 7 days for the remaining balance to be paid in full. If you don't have the money on hand please do not bid I will report all no payers to Ebay inc. So happy bidding and enjoy the auction...

A hybrid and electric Corvette, plus we drive the Ioniq 5 | Autoblog Podcast #728

Fri, May 6 2022

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Road Test Editor Zac Palmer. Zac drove the electric 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Greg drove the fire-breathing 2022 Maserati Levante Trofeo. The two dive deep into the relatively heavy news week by starting off with a discussion about the upcoming hybrid Corvette before chatting about what the electric Corvette might be like. They have a chat about the possibility of Porsche and Audi officially joining the Formula 1 field. Then, Greg and Zac get into some quick-hitting news to round out the segment by dissecting the updated Kia Soul (now without a turbo), the 30th Anniversary Edition Land Rover Defender and the new CEO at Aston Martin. Following the news and drive reviews, they rope in Senior Editor, Green John Beltz Snyder to give them a quick download of what went down at the first drive for the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning. Finally, they reach into the mailbag and answer some questions from someone who is less than pleased about infotainment systems in some new cars.

Autoblog Minute: VW finds CO2 'irregularities', Takata dropped by automakers, SEMA recap

Fri, Nov 6 2015

Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle, US regulators hit Takata Corporation with a substantial fine, and we head to Las Vegas for a look at tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle. US regulators issue a significant fine to Takata Corporation. And we take a peek inside tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. The VW diesel emissions scandal, first brought to light in September, gets a new wrinkle, as an internal investigation by the German automaker revealed [00:00:30] irregularities in CO2 emissions that could affect approximately 800,000 vehicles. VW estimates the issue could pose a 2-billion euro economic risk. VW claims that most of the vehicles affected have diesel engines, but industry analysts say a 1.4-liter gas engine is also affected. VW says that fuel consumption figures were set too low during the CO2 certification process. During all of this, sales of some diesel-powered Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche models [00:01:00] have been halted. Takata Corporation is back in the news in connection with its deadly airbag scandal. Federal regulators fined Takata $70 million. If the parts supplier does not comply, the fine could balloon to $200 million. Takata was also dropped this week by its biggest customer, Honda. And now, Toyota and Mazda will be following Honda's lead in dropping Takata. We're also hearing that Mitsubishi and Subaru are considering a switch in air-bag inflator suppliers. SEMA 2015 [00:01:30] came and went. We saw offerings from Mopar, like the AWD Challenger concept. Honda unveiled a Ridgeline that it will race at the Baja 1000, which gives us a hint at what future production model could look like. The celebrity presence was also felt in Vegas as it always is. Kid Rock brought a Duramax Diesel Chevy Silverado, and Acura restored and presented Ludacris with his now famous 1993 Acura Legend. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to come back on Saturday for my full recap, [00:02:00] where I'll have some added insight into Hyundai's foray into the luxury sector. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.

Opel Ampera-e brings a Bolt of EV driving to Europe

Fri, Feb 12 2016

The Chevrolet Bolt will take a trip across the Atlantic in 2017 to become Europe's Opel Ampera-e. General Motors won't release any specs for the foreign version yet, but these photos suggest very minor styling tweaks to the upper level of the grille and to the hatchback to add the appropriate brand emblems. We would expect the same electric motor with 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque and 60-kWh battery as the US model, too. However, the 200-mile range number might change, but only because of the differences in European testing. GM CEO Mary Barra announced the Ampera-e at the CAR Symposium in Bochum, Germany. "GM and Opel have always been convinced that electric cars will play a defining role in future mobility. The game-changing technology of the Ampera-e is a significant step toward realizing that vision," she said. The Ampera-e is also proof that General Motors loves confusing naming for its green models. If the Volt and Bolt aren't perplexing enough, the Ampera-e is just one letter off from the Ampera – the previous-gen Volt in Europe. GM no longer sells the range-extended vehicle there, so at least both names can't be in showrooms simultaneously. However, the similar monikers still might confuse some customers who think the new EV hatchback is closely related to the old sedan. Related Video: OPEL GROUP ANNOUNCES GAME-CHANGING AMPERA-e BATTERY ELECTRIC CAR New battery electric vehicle will break down barriers to electric mobility Five-door, five-seat Ampera-e will have longer range than most electric cars Fun to drive, outstanding connectivity and affordably priced Russelsheim. Opel Group will launch a revolutionary new battery electric car next year, as the company continues the biggest, most far-reaching model offensive in its history with 29 new models between 2016 and 2020. The new five-door, five seat will be called "Ampera-e". It will not only have a longer range on a full charge than most electric cars, it will also be affordably priced. Building on the electrification expertise established with the original Ampera, which set the benchmark for modern electric cars in 2011, the new Ampera-e combines innovative electric-mobility with state-of-the-art connectivity and exciting driving dynamics. Announcing the Ampera-e today at the CAR Symposium in Bochum, Germany, GM Chairman & CEO Mary Barra said: "GM and Opel have always been convinced that electric cars will play a defining role in future mobility.
