Vehicle Description
One family owned since ordered brand new! This beautifully kept
1976 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Cheyenne 4x4 was fully restored between
2011-2013 with awesome results! Powered by original, number's
matching 400ci V8 and optioned with automatic transmission, All
Weather air conditioning, Cheyenne Equipment Group, Variable-Ratio
power steering, power disc� brakes, bucket seats, tilt column,
heavy duty suspension, and so much more! Competition in auto
manufacturing spawned some of the greatest vehicle creations that
find their way into prominent collections today. In the case of
sport utility trucks, the Jeep CJ, International Harvester Scout,
and Ford Bronco all had a rather strong grasp of the off-road
capable truck market.� That was until the full-size Chevrolet
Blazer came onto the scene!� Based on the standard short wheel base
truck, but fitted with a larger passenger cabin, and the same host
of luxury options as other Chevrolet models, these larger, more
comfortable Blazers were an instant success!� It remained a loyal
marque for Chevrolet through 1994 with various revisions and
updates over the years.� Today, early high-optioned original
examples are desirable the world over! We are very pleased to offer
this 1976 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Cheyenne 4x4 Sport Utility! Finished
in Special Two-tone Grecian Bronze & white with Saddle Custom Vinyl
bucket seat interior, this cosmetically restored example comes with
a host of factory options!� Powered today by its original, number's
matching 400ci small block V8 engine and Turbo-Hydramatic
transmission, it is ready to handle just about anything you can
throw at it!� Factory appointed equipment included air
conditioning, Cheyenne Equipment Group, power front disc brakes,
Variable-Ratio power steering, 4-wheel drive with Dana 44 HD front
axle with locking front hubs along with NP205 transfer case,
12-bolt rear axle, Rally Wheels wrapped 235/75R15 Goodyear Wrangler
Radial raised-white letter tires, chromed grill, front bucket seats
with storage console, 3-person rear bench seat, dash
instrumentation package, all Soft-Ray tinted glass, upgraded Custom
Autosound AM/FM/Aux radio, 31-gallon gas tank, heavy-duty
suspension, front & rear seatbelts, electric clock, and more! Being
ordered brand new from Rauscher Chevrolet Co. in Kirkwood,
Missouri, it delivered on September 25th, 1975 to its only,
original owners!� It made its way to Deerfield Beach, FL early on
and stayed in Florida through 1988.� It then came back home to
their St. Louis residence in St. Genevieve, MO and was used only
sparingly while stored indoors.� At approximately 95,000 miles, it
was cosmetically restored by Crown Chevrolet's body shop in
Farmington, MO in 2011-2012 to include a full repaint and received
new window seals, weather stripping, chrome door handles, exterior
mirrors, front grill & headlight surrounds, and front & rear
bumpers.� Once it arrived to the St. Louis Car Museum, we installed
new interior carpet, seat upholstery & foams, dash pad, and
instrumentation surround.� This was all finished by 2013 along with
brand new radial tires, new Sensatrack shocks(4), hood insulation,
sway bar bushings, ball joint, front end alignment, all new exhaust
system, completely rebuilt air conditioning system to include new
polished compressor, expansion valve, new hoses, condenser, drier,
and R134a conversion.� The car remains wonderfully solid &
presentable throughout, and drives equally as well!� It still
retains a perfect original glove box identification sticker(now
removed and kept in plastic) and factory attached metal door jamb
ID tag.� All original owner's manual, delivery inspection, service
booklet, maintenance schedule, all Florida registration records
from 1975-1988, Missouri registration forward, and some restoration
receipts are all included with the sale inside a binder.� Please
