Vehicle Description
This corrosion-free 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer was purchased in
California several years ago as a straight, unmodified Blazer,
powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine backed by an automatic
transmission. Following complete disassembly, the frame was
modified for the suspension, steering, large fuel cell and
strengthened in several areas. The frame was powder-coated, as was
each axle. Suspension components were fitted with premium products.
The rear axle is a heavy-duty half-ton unit. The front Dana 44 has
new ball joints, heavy-duty U-joints, heavy-duty tie rods and tie
rod ends. The 700R4 automatic transmission is built for extreme
duty. The NP205 transfer case is completely remanufactured and
upgraded with bearings and seals, shift forks and shift plate,
which are all fitted. The driveshafts are fitted with heavy-duty
U-joints. The body was completely disassembled, blasted and
professionally painted. The tailgate was modified by relocating the
opening latch to the interior. The fiberglass top was completely
refurbished with a smooth finish, custom flush-mounted windows, new
wiring and LED interior lighting. The interior of the top is
treated with heat and sound texture. The infotainment's antenna is
concealed. The grille is finished in black chrome with an LED-lit
blue bowtie. Other features include LED headlamps, turn signals and
parking light units, as well as Tahoe tilt and reclining lumbar
front seats done in blue, black and grey with armrests. The rear
seats are tilt and removable. The infotainment system is crafted
into the Dakota Digital dash, and the Blazer has a 37-gallon fuel
tank.
