1979 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Cheyenne Sport Utility 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Maumelle, Arkansas, United States
Up for auction my 1979 Blazer I bought it a few months ago as a toy and have decided that I would rather finish up my boat.
I purchased from a dealership in Denver Colorado details below: *5.7 Chevy 350 (throttle body injection) TBI *350 Turbo Transmission *JBA Headers *3 Inch Exhaust *Air raid intake *TBI Throttle body spacer *Brand new battery *BF Goodrich KM2 35in tires *6in Procomp Lift *Power windows and Locks *Keyless entry *New Rear Differential and Gears *Spicer Rear drive shaft *Alpine CD player *New Serpentine belt, pulleys and tension-er *12 bolt rear end *10 bolt front axle Exterior: I can with out a doubt say this blazer is 100% rust free which is very hard to come buy from a 1979, the vehicle has been painted satin orange. The paint job is at best "driver quality". The glass in the blazer is in great shape, the rear glass has some window tint film that is pealing due to cracked weather stripping which I have not had time pull off yet. The BFG tires are pretty much new shape I would say 90-95% tread left, the K5 sits on a 6 in Pro comp suspension lift. Interior: The interior came from the dealership with a bench seat which appeared to come out of a older Chevy pickup, since owning I have obtained the original bucket seats and center column. I am currently in the process of replacing the seats with ORIGINAL seat covers not junk you buy at the local parts store, The company sent me two front covers and a rear seat cover sewn factory original. I have all receipts over $1000 in interior upgrades since purchasing, I have one seat recovered and will continue to replace the remaining. I will also be replacing the interior carpet with better than factory replacement the kit comes with in a 3 pieces front back, and rear fender wells, the carpet has mass backing on it for much improved sound deadening. Engine/Trans: The vehicle came with a newer style 350 TBI and a 350 trans, it also has power steering, power brakes. I have been driving this back in forth to work for a couple months 30 miles round trip and the K5 has been running very well. Can help with shipping arrangements for the winning bidder Winning bidder is required to make a pay pal deposit to my account for the amount of $1000.00 with in 48 hrs of auction end The reserve price is set at the purchase price I paid just 3 months ago from the dealership in Colorado |

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant
Tue, 08 Apr 2014The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
