Vehicle Description
This 1989 Chevrolet K5 Blazer 4x4 has been upgraded to give you an
awesome color combo, overdrive transmission, and an A/C interior...
but those are not the investments you're going to enjoy the most.
What's going to get you loving every moment of this full-size
Blazer is the fuel-injected LS V8 that now lives under the
hood.
The black and silver two-tone on this one is quite striking. It's
not just that these are two great colors, but also that they are
thoughtfully intertwined. There's a double-silver pinstripe that
runs the full length of the SUV and wraps around the tailgate. It's
used as a clearly defined border for the two colors, and the silver
has the same tone as the lower trim and wheel wells (see what we
mean about thoughtful?) Plus, there are well-done coordinating
pieces. Both the removable hardtop and the upgraded 18-inch Fuel
wheels are finished in a matte black and silver. So they go great
with the colors of this Chevy while still drawing extra attention.
The chrome bumpers and polished grille give this some brightwork
flair. The total presentation looks nice, but it's also not
overdone so that you'd be afraid to enjoy this Blazer to its
fullest. After all, usability is part of its allure. That's why you
have the tall 4x4 stance, wide tow mirrors, and a trailer hitch
with full wiring harness.
This was one of the final years for the legendary second-gen K5
Blazer, and these are especially desirable for being quite
comfortable. This includes nice factory features, like power
windows, power locks, and a tilt steering column that gives you a
nice view to the instruments that wrap around the driver. Plus,
there are great upgrades, like the AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input
for your iPod. The air conditioning has a new compressor and is
blowing cold with modern R134a. The front buckets have new
CoverKing seat covers, and there's a large center console
in-between. The rear seats are an upgraded unit from a later Chevy
that include better bolstering and three-point seatbelts for the
side passengers. Speaking of the rear, the side panels have been
re-done in a durable vinyl and the rear flooring has been covered
in a rugged liner paint. That's an ideal structure no matter if you
want to use this like a pickup, or if you just want a robust setup
for when the removable hardtop is off and your Blazer is open to
the world.
We bet you've already gone ahead and checked out the pictures of
the engine bay. After all, an upgrade like this gets us all
excited. The Chevy Tahoe is the spiritual successor to the K5
Blazer, and so it's quite cool to have the 5.3-liter Vortec V8 from
one of those transplanted here. They made sure to clearly install
this fuel-injected heart so that you'll proudly show off the
upgrade. More importantly, they also thoroughly went through the
motor, including upgrading the heads. So it runs like a proper
modern FI machine should. Power steering, power brakes w/discs up
front, and the 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission means you
have an easy-cruising overdrive machine. Of course, this Blazer was
not just made for the pavement. The two-speed 4x4 transfer case,
lifted stance, and Toyo Open Country tires give this one the
ability to also be the coolest vehicle at the boat ramp or
campsite.
This is the beefy square-stance Blazer look you love with all the
features and upgrades already included. So you know you don't want
to miss this deal. Call now!
