Vehicle Detail

lichtblau1925 Store 1997 CHEVY BLAZER LX 4X4 - CHEAP! no reserve! RUNS BUT NEEDS WORK!! Up for auction we have a used 1997 Chevy Blazer Lx, CLEAR TITLE, 4x4 anti lock (light for that is currently on) which we have owned for the past 5 years. Color is burgandy, only a little bit of rust (as shown), new tires in the spring with excellent tread (as shown), high mileage at 238,141. Interior in good condition (see pics), never broken down on us, lots of new parts (see below) tranny has issues (see below) but my wife hates it, is refusing to drive it for any reason, even garage saleing for garbage, so off it goes so I dont have to hear about it sitting in the driveway anymore. Blazer runs but needs work, and the female of the household is refusing to drive it or fix it because of aesthetic reasons (see side mirror hanging loose), so we got her a new Tahoe. Didnt wash it either for the pictures, as it just isnt worth it to us.. someone can get this for cheap and with a little work have a pretty good winter vehicle, and I will have en0ugh I bet to get her the required santa vera wang perfume for Christmas. In the past 2 years the following have been replaced:(father in law and brother in laws fixes- not mine, not a car guy) fuel pump, alternator, spark plugs, tires (spring), new brakes last fall, new roter fan? last fall as well.. battery (last January), but as you can see, the side mirror came off at the local car wash (easy fix with a quick weld), there is a little rust on the bottom of the side panel door, and the interior is in good condition, no huge holes, burns, etc.. (see picture). Spare tire included, located in the back suv storage area under the liftable panel. Heater works, no idea on air as my father in law never did try to put any freon in, but said if you did that most likely it would go. Also will need to purchase some fuses for it as well, as the light wouldnt go off one day so my lovely wife decided to pull the fuse out as oppossed to finding the issue (back door left open most likely)-, I did replace that fuse and it worked, but it happened again (back door still probably) and she decided to pull the bulb out! She took a fuse out too because the beep wouldnt stop but when she got home the side door was open. Pretty sure everything works, but, disclosing the issue so that you know, as I dont have the time nor are willing to fully get this vehicle inspected as I dont want much for it, just to have it gone before winter so I dont have to hear about it still sitting in our driveway. Car has always been reliable but it will definatly need some tranny work soon, right now when you go over 30mph you have to manually shift it into 2nd or 3rd, wastes ALOT of gas that way on long trips, so your gonna want to fix that, but it does run as is right now if your willing to pay the suv gas type prices. Im not a car guy, could be something simple and not an entire tran replacement, but if you need a whole new tranny and you can do it yourself- got a cost estimate for a replacement out of oronoco salvage if your interested, one that fits is over there for $200, you stick it in it will be good to go. My wifes dad was gonna stick one in but she has decided she wont drive that car because it wont fit all 4 kids car seats in it, which TO ME would be an EXCELLENT REASON TO KEEP A VEHICLE that wont fit ALL KIDS in it at a time, but, thats just me.. so she got a Tahoe and this one is just sitting and has to go. The car will be cleaned up and vacumed/etc before you pick it up, but we wont detail it.. you can do that. Car looks pretty good when all washed, nice shine, little rust, as stated, make sure if its for your wife/girlfriend she pre approves of the look before you bid. Bidding has to start at $400 as that was the cost of the tires we just had put on,without all of the other work we have done, still a reasonable car for the buy it now price- you can piece it out or drive it, doesnt matter to me, would be good for either, but probably worth the time to get it checked out for a good winter beater or all around starter car for someone. Have seen them go on here for same year and model, WHICH DOESNT RUN AT ALL for $1000 for parts, so our price is more than reasonable.. Lots in Rochester are taking $1,000 trade value on it, (but I thought at the time we could use a spare vehicle, until I was directed otherwise.l ) so you know the Roch dealers plan on getting at least twice that. Good car for a teen driver if you have one of those, good safe frame, airbags, not too sporty so they wont get in trouble.. cheap great car for someone with mechanical experience (thats not me) Good luck. TERMS OF SALE- $400 OR 25% (whichever is more) IS DUE IMMEDIATLEY UPON AUCTION END FOR US TO HOLD AND NOT RELIST VEHICLE, (WE WILL SEND AN INVOICE THRU PAYPAL OF THE TOTAL DOWN DUE) PICKUP DATE AND TIME MUST BE MADE AT THAT TIME AS WELL, YOU MUST SEND US YOUR PHONE NUMBER VIA EBAY MESSAGE AT AUCTION END OR ITEM MAY BE RELISTED.

TEST DRIVING MAY BE AVAILABLE, MESSAGE ME TO SET UP TIME, AS MY WIFE IS NERVOUS OF EBAY STALKERS !?!SO I MAY HAVE TO MEET YOU SOMEWHERE,. !
