Frame Off Restored K-5 Blazer 4x4 350 V8 Automatic A/C Lifted Suspension /// Lovingly restored into a rock-solid cruiser, this K5 benefited from a detailed, frame-off build that marries factory-straight metal to ruggedly robust appeal. It's hard to argue with the aesthetics of any late-60s or early-70s Chevy truck, and this Blazer's 1971 livery, with its subdued forms, prominent grille and brilliant bowtie, might be the year that perfected the run. All that brawn shows well in clean Silver Metallic...2-stage. Cool Custom Sport Truck upgrades add tasteful rocker stripes, prominent door badging and sophisticated tailgate trim. And since convertibles are best enjoyed in the sun, this Chevy sports a fresh soft top that can be either folded or completely removed. Power comes courtesy of a 350 cubic inch GM crate engine that pairs an iron block with rugged iron heads. That power meets the pavement through a B&M-dressed Turbo-Hydramatic 350, which rides between a chrome-capped 12-bolt and a proven Dana 40 that's teamed with a tough NP205 transfer case. That drivetrain rolls on a factory frame, which augments a fully rebuilt suspension with lift springs, lift blocks, a Rancho stabilizer and six Rancho shocks. That rigid chassis is guided by power-assisted steering, and stopped by power-assisted disc and drum brakes. And at the edges of the floor, 6-lug axles spin locking Warn hubs inside polished Bullet Hole rims and BF Goodrich Radial All-Terrain T/As. Between the doors, weather-resistant seats face a tasteful Chevrolet dash, which frames factory air conditioning, a faux direct-fit radio and rebuilt telemetry that's complete with a factory tach. That radio is a placeholder because the truck's actual audio, a Bluetooth-capable Sony CD player, lives in a Tuffy Security Console. And the driver spins a factory steering wheel around a tilting column. Ready to enjoy a serious ute with serious chops? Call, click or visit for the chance to claim this awesome K5!
