Heres a rare opportunity at a Blazer with some really cool history. This 1973 Blazer K5 was built and prepped by R C Laton, a rally and off-road driver of some fame up in these parts. Over the years he's piloted and built some awesome machinery and this is just one example. He prepped this '73 K5 Blazer for the Baja 1000 in 1987, and raced it in a type of sportsman stock 4x4 class. Only it wasn't stock! And isn't...it's powered by a 500 cu in Cadillac motor with a custom cam. In addition to 1-ton springs all around, the Blazer has fulltime 4x4 and a huge Hickey Enterprises gas tank, hitch, tool boxes, spare parts storage, navigator console, gauges, and switches with lighted indicators as part of it's Baja prep . It also has a neatly-mounted Warn winch, CIBIE headlights and CIBIE Super Oscar off-road lights and extra shocks. Still inside are the Survey Speedometer, Baja roller map, and decals from various Baja events. It is largely untouched since the 87 race. Over the years R C started it up periodically, but it stayed parked in Santa Clara, CA by the building where he keeps his shop. So for 16 or more years it's been sitting, but the occaisional start up has been good for it , because last week, with a fresh battery it cranked over and started and ran. It lot drives, shifts, steers, and stops on it's own. The title is a clear ID title signed off by Laton, registration is still current til May in Idaho. It's not the kind of truck you can drive home as-is, but it runs well enough to go on a trailer or transport and is generally in working condition for a test drive. Being that it sat so long it has some floor rust and the carpet is shot, and overall it could use a good cleaning. See the pictures, and ask for more if you need to see something we missed. Check out the old pictures from the race. This is pretty cool history for an old Blazer! And whats more = it's a nice Cheyenne package K5 in a desireable color!! Fix it up and do NORRA in a comfortable truck WITH BAJA HISTORY you don't need to tow down there! The Blazer is in Morgan Hill, CA at this time and available for viewing. Call 408 515 5615 with any questions or if you'd like to come see it.

GM slashes prices in China as sales falter

Thu, May 14 2015

Buying a vehicle from General Motors' stable of brands might be a lot cheaper in the near future – at least for customers in China. The effort comes as GM hopes to keep sales there growing, and the decision alludes to yet another sign that the Asian country no longer has the booming auto market of past years. GM and its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC are slashing prices by as much as the equivalent to $8,700 on 40 models from Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac, according to The Detroit News. Across all of automaker's nameplates, the overall sales dipped in China in April by 0.4 percent to 258,484 vehicles. Among the drops, Buick was down 8.5 percent, and Chevy shrunk 5.6 percent. Caddy's numbers increased 4.6 percent for the month, though. Buick remains a popular brand in the minds of Chinese consumers, but according to The Detroit News domestic automakers there are starting to eat into the dominance of foreign companies in the market. The country remains important for GM, though. Late last year, it outlined a future strategy that included China as a major pillar, including a $14 billion investment to build five new factories and boost sales.
