1973 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Gmc Jimmy Full Convertable 4x4 on 2040-cars

Patterson, California, United States

For sale is a 1973 GMC Jimmy Sierra full convertible 4x4.  I purchased this vehicle 3 years ago from the owner who did the frame-off restoration 3 years prior.  The restoration has approximately 7,000 miles on it between the original owner and the miles that I have driven it.  This vehicle was restored to look original without the sluggish and restricted smog compliant motors of those years.  This vehicle is now smog exempt.  Since I did not rebuild it myself I do not know the specifics of what went into the motor.  I do know that it was completely rebuilt from the top to the bottom and equipped with upgraded intake, carb, ignition, headers, cam, exhaust, and etc.  Some of this can be seen in the pictures as well as the overall condition and cleanliness under the hood.  The builder said he had the engine built up to 400 horsepower.  I can not verify that but this engine does have some serious "get up and go" and runs strong and smooth as it should.  It is paired to the rebuilt TH-350 automatic transmission with shift kit.  It always runs cool with all new hoses and cooling system.  The interior is near perfect.  A new Alpine receiver was installed to use with smartphone, iPod, or mp3's and its connected to new JL Audio speakers that sound great.  The vehicle has an alarm system and keyless entry.  Although it has factory AC it does not blow cold.  All controls and heater work great but the AC needs to be charged.  The AC has not worked since I have owned the vehicle but I never charged it or investigated if the system had a leak since I have always used it with the top off anyway.  The needle on the gear indicator also does not work.  It indicates "P" all the time.  Other than the two issues mentioned, everything else is in excellent condition and functions as it should.  This vehicle is a 4x4 but it has never seen dirt.  It has always been garaged and only used to cruise the streets on weekends with good weather.  This vehicle runs and drives as new.  It holds the road extremely well and brakes true.  It has plenty of power and is perfectly reliable and comfortable to drive on any trip.  When I bough it, it had aftermarket wheels so I bought some factory rally's and hubs and had them painted and polished to original spec.  I put new Michelin tires on them and have not driven it 500 miles since.  The builder also installed an extra seat in the back you can view in the pictures.  I have described the vehicle the best I can and I hope the pictures describe it well too, but for any questions serious buyers may have they can call me at 209-605-5946 and I will try to answer.  All in all this is a turn key truck that's ready for a new owner to drive and enjoy.  

Thanks

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
