Vehicle Description
With its triple-black package, V8 power, 4x4 prowess, and full
convertible appeal, this 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer has been restored
to the kind of standard for those who demand their classics have
true distinction.
Black paint is terrific when it's this glossy, but it takes much
more than just an investment in color. It needs great sheetmetal to
make the color look like a midnight masterpiece. So you can really
tell they made a total investment when restoring this classic
Blazer. They took their time with the details, too. The bumpers are
new and shine like mirrors; the full-length trim is straight and
fresh; and the hardtop has a textured black appearance (almost like
a classic muscle car with vinyl top.) And speaking of that
fiberglass top, remember this was the era of the fully removable
roof to turn this Blazer into a full convertible.
The restored black interior completes the ultra-desirable
triple-black package. And while we love these on muscle cars, this
Blazer reminds us that trucks do it a little differently. After
all, you still get the individual comfort of a bucket seat, but
it's textured in the classic country pattern that came on the upper
trims of the Chevy pickups. In fact, they really paid attention to
getting the classic appearance correct - right down to the AM radio
that's still on display. But more than a great time capsule, this
is an excellent cruiser. The center console, new stock steering
wheel, and crisp gauges make driving easy. And the ride height of
this 4x4 SUV even towers over a lot of new machines to give you a
commanding view of the road.
Under the hood is Chevy's famous 350 cubic-inch V8. You can tell
they took their time with the restoration to even get the engine
bay right, and there's a long list of new components. So the bold
orange block looks terrific as its radiating from within the
darkness. A trusty and tough V8 like this is great in a go-anywhere
4x4. And the way it fires up readily and idles smoothly reflects
more of a good investment. Topped with a Quadrajet four-barrel
carburetor, it makes plenty of power and the right rumble from the
header-fed dual exhaust. The lifted stance, BF Goodrich All-Terrain
T/As, and the recently rebuilt two-speed transfer case gives you
the confidence to take this one up the trail or out on the dunes.
But more than just an off-roader, this one will look good rolling
down Main Street. So this is built to be an easy cruiser thanks to
a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and
front disc brakes.
Here's a full-sized, full-convertible 4x4 that was restored to turn
heads on the street and trail. That's why we love this Chevy, and
it's also why we know it's deal that will be leaving us quickly.
