From Russia with love

Hi everybody! My name is Anton. I'm from Moscow. I own Chevy Blazer 98' , 2WD, manual, Russian modification. It is a great car! I'm also a member of a Russian Chevrolet owner's club. http://www.chevyclub.ru/ Unfortunately,it is all in Russian, you wont understand much. :frown: By the way, you can have a look on my ride over here: http://photofile.ru/default/do.php?aid=559099&np=y

I've made some improvements. I installed XENON 6000K, 900$ audio system (MYSTERY speakers, tweeters and Subwoofer, Alpine Amplifier and Sony Head Unit MP3). 16 inch rims, stone guard and etc. I hope you'll like it.

Why do i write this message? Well, I want to get acquainted with Blazer owners all over the world. :biggrin:

Welcome to America Anton, Now tell me what the hell they did to the front end? Your Russian modification blazer looks like a ford exploder or a toyota? What year is it? how much does gasoline cost per gallon in Russia?

The yeah is 1998. In Russia we dont count fuel in gallons,we count it in litres. 1 litre of unleaded fuel costs about 50 cents. And dont know what have they done to the front end, You should ask the manufacturer. :smile:

Welcome buddy... Nice ride!

Yes, Us dollars, but i say once again, this price is per litre, not per gallon. I am planning to modify my blazer, first of all i want to by taillights lexus style. It is impossible to by them in Russia, you have to order them from the US and it wiil cost me 400 dollars. This price is unreal. Is there any possibility to by them in the US and then send them to Russia. Many THX

Your Blazer is the first one that we've seen with that style. We have had people here from Brazil, but they never posted any pictures. I haven't seen a 98 Blazer with a manual transmission either. There are a lot of people that would like that option here.

Nice truck!

I told him hello and welcomed him to the forum

He thanked me for welcoming him

His next response was to me saying that it looked like an isuzu. He said that the ones like his were in Brazil and Russia.

1.89 im goin to russia.LOL.I wanna win that tanker of gas from sunoco's promotion with nascar.Theres 9000 gallons of gas in that.Thanks blazee for the translation,not being fluent in russian in all.

:biggrin:

seriously now 2.35 is freakin ridicoulous even though up in ny there payin 2.49 to 2.85 a gallon depending on what grade.I got 28mpg going up then with coming home through the mountains i got about 19/Still awesome 300 miles on a tank never happened before to me so i was pleased.

If you are planning to go to Moscow, you are always welcome. I believe that my collegues from Chevy Club Russia, wiil be also glad to talk to ya.

I know the cheapest place went from 2.25 to 2.35 today and that the arabs up the highway went up to 2.35 today so there goes my cheap way out.Oh well we own a huge freakin desert full of oil and the gas goes up.

The same situation is in Russia. Russia has lots of gas and oil, we export oil and gas to the EU, China, CIS. But the prices on the local market are damn huge :mad: :mad: :mad: 50 cents per litre is to much

You are lucky. s10blazerman4x4 and I pay 62 cents per liter
