  • The First-Gen Blazer Legacy: The K5 Blazer debuted in 1969, marking Chevrolet’s entry into the growing 4x4 SUV market. Built on a tough truck chassis, it was designed to dominate off-road while still offering comfort and versatility. The 1972 model year was the last of the revered first generation, featuring iconic styling, a removable hardtop, and a no-nonsense attitude that defined the American SUV.
  • Comprehensive Frame-On Restoration: Restored in 2023, this Blazer was meticulously refreshed for performance and durability. The undercarriage was dry ice blasted and undercoated, while all-weather seals, ball joints, and a new gas tank were installed. Key upgrades include Halo LED headlights, heavy-duty rack and pinion steering, lockers, and polished chrome bumpers. Sitting on 33-inch BFGoodrich All-Terrain tires mounted to KMC wheels, this rig is dialed in for serious adventures.
  • Beefy Powertrain and Suspension: Under the hood is a rebuilt 350ci small-block V8 paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox. The Dana rear end delivers torque to all four corners through a true 4x4 drivetrain. Suspension upgrades include Fox 2.0 shocks, ensuring it can handle rough trails while staying composed on pavement. It’s everything you want in a classic SUV—raw, capable, and ready to rip.
