**SUPER CUSTOM MILITARY CHEVY K5 BLAZER**

OFF ROAD/ON ROAD/MOUNTAIN/RANCH/WAR/SHTF/ZOMBIE TRUCK!!!!!!!!!

 

86 Chevrolet K5 Blazer. Fully customized from the ground up, no expense was spared on the build, totaling over 55k. This 1 of a kind truck could be used for many different purposes, from a show truck, advertisement for your business, an expedition truck used for camping/towing trailer out in the middle of no where or an end of the world zombie attack truck! This truck could be daily driven with no worries, its very reliable and gets decent fuel mileage with the LS motor! Listed below is a short list of the modifications/upgrades done.

Drive train:


2004 5.3L LS engine, bored to a 5.7L, mild cam and valve springs and long tube headers. Recently rebuilt with only 1000 miles, with paperwork!  Brand new Sanden A/C system
700r4/4l60 overdrive transmission, recently rebuilt with paperwork, only 7700 miles
3/4 ton axles with upgraded gears, Detroit lockers front and rear, disc brakes front and rear, everything was rebuilt, bearings and seals (both axles), ball joints, tie rods (all moog), warn premium hubs, wheel bearings, essentially everything was replaced or upgraded.
np208 transfer case rebuilt with 7700 miles (paperwork too)
37" military Goodyear tires mounted on hummer h1 double bead lock wheels with the run flats.
Dual Batteries with battery isolator



Exterior:


1.75 inch .120 wall DOM Exo-cage. This cage has countless hours of engineering and quality workmanship put into it. It is 100% professional, not a joe-blow backyard built with a 110v welder. All the welds were done with a massive 220v welder and are very clean. Tire swing is mounted on chromoly heim joints for the piviot and polyurathane bushings at the latch points.
Bumpers are made of 3/16 plate steel, which is double layered in most spots. front bumper has a smittybuilt 15k winch mounted in it.  The canvas top is made from military grade material that will not tear or come apart at freeway speeds. At freeway speeds, the truck is air tight.
Under the canvas top is another roll cage that houses a custom hand built rear window track, that allows the rear window to be fully functional.  RIGID LED lights mounted to the roof rack. (2k worth of lights).  Polyurethane bushings throughout truck including body mounts



Interior:


DIY4X Aluminum dash loaded with AutoMeter gauges, A/C and Heat vents, Pioneer stereo system, and all high end rubber coated switches.  B&M Pro Ratchet Shifter for the overdrive transmission.  Custom bucket seats, front and rear.  Lizard skin top and bottom of the truck. Really works good, very little road noise.  Custom touches throughout like grenade 4x4 shifter, 50 cal bullet for e-brake release.  CB and Siren/PA System



I know I'm forgetting more details. The list goes on and on with custom touches and upgrades. This truly is a 1 of a kind truck, it draws massive amounts of attention at car shows. This truck was never off-roaded. It was used as advertisement for a local gun shop in Mesa.


The entire roll cage was built with high end machined couplings for complete removal if ever needed. The custom roof rack is also completely removable if you need to modify it to fit a turret for a .50 Cal. The inner steel topper is also removable if you ever wanted to put a original hard top back on UNDER the roll cage. That's right, I thought of almost everything. The rear window rolls into a weather seal in the steel inner custom frame. There is also a Power Inverter under the passenger seat and a custom drive shaft. It now has a dual exhaust that exits on the right and left side, all matt black and custom. Sounds amazing. The stereo is a 1,000 watts and has custom speakers in the rear. Also comes with a custom button in cabin divider not shown. This allows you to close the the forward cabin to keep in the heat or A/C.

Comes with a spare Hummer Run flat tire with custom tire cover

***2 almost impossible to find BRAND SPANKING NEW Scepter Military fuel tanks on the rear swing gate which also contains custom locks to prevent any idiot from actually attempting to steal from a truck like this. Never had anyone try yet, just the look of this truck is enough for people to know not to screw with the owner!***


 

 I added some pictures of the LS Motor prior to it being installed. Sounds amazing with the 3" Dual exhaust pipes not shown in pics.

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

GM, Pilot will build EVgo fast chargers at 500 truck stops across U.S.

Thu, Jul 14 2022

All of our maps showing electric vehicle charging stations across the U.S. are going to need an update. Today, General Motors, Pilot and EVgo announced plans to work together on a nationwide DC fast charging network. The plan calls for 2,000 charging stalls that can deliver up to 350 kW to be installed at up to 500 Pilot and Flying J travel centers in the U.S. The goal is to have DC fast chargers available in 50-mile intervals across the country. The new charging stations will feature GM's "Ultium Charge 360" branding and "Pilot Flying J" logos but will not be limited to drivers of GM EVs. The plugs will use CCS connectors and be available to anyone. GM EV owners can take advantage of benefits, including the ability to make exclusive reservations, get discounts on charging costs and streamline the charging process with Plug and Charge and in-vehicle apps that can provide real-time charger availability. The first installation phase will take place in 2023, and "the bulk of the installations" should be completed by 2025, EVgo CEO Kathy Zoi said during a conference call with reporters announcing the plan. "We're gonna get going immediately and commence all of that engineering and planning stuff," she said. "We've got a pretty orderly plan." Pilot CEO Shameek Konar said the company expects the new EV charging stations to coexist with the current fuel infrastructure. "An average Pilot Flying J location is about 10 acres," Konar said. "This will be in addition to all of our gas pumps. The way I think about it is, this is a new source of energy that is going to coexist with gas for quite some time. We can debate how long, but we need to serve both groups of customers." Installing DC fast chargers at hundreds of Pilot's travel centers — aka truck stops — means there should be food, drinks, restrooms, WiFi and even showers available while you wait for an EV to charge. Pilot recently announced its “New Horizons” plan that will invest $1 billion in upgrading Pilot travel centers with more premium amenities, including expanded seating and lounge areas. While the exact amount of time it will take to charge an EV using these new stations will vary on the EV and its current state of charge, most EVs can refill from a low state of charge to around 80 percent in 20-30 minutes on a fast charger. The new stations are future-proofed to deliver up to 350 kW, a charge rate that few EVs today can handle.
