This custom 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer SUV is a one-off creation of a
Cheyenne Super in K5 form. This recently completed true
nut-and-bolt, rotisserie restoration has been done with attention
to detail. It is dressed to impress in its Triple-Black theme. This
Blazer is powered by a brand-new GM Performance LS2 crate engine
producing 450hp mated to a new TCI automatic transmission backed by
a NP205 transfer case. The engine bay is finished in Omaha Orange
with retro script Holley coil pack covers, bronze Cerakote exhaust
manifolds, a black Holley mid-mount serpentine system, Wilwood
power brake booster, a Vintage Air system and nicely tucked wiring
from American Autowire, with everything done in cloth-style loom
and heat shrink. The body tub has been coated in U-POL Raptor
lining on the inside and out for sound-deadening and heat transfer,
with the inside also lined with Kilmat for added comfort. The
suspension features a 4-inch Rough Country lift and steering
stabilizer. The factory chassis has been completely torn down,
sandblasted, bodyworked and painted in a Smoked Charcoal base
coat/clear coat for a nice finish. The chassis is also plumbed with
all-new stainless-steel brake lines, a HotRod braided fuel hose and
fittings from the aluminum EFI fuel tank. All of this rides on a
brand-new set of 17-inch slotted U.S. Mags wheels and 35x12.50
Mud-Terrain tires. The K5 is finished in Jet Black from top to
bottom and is sporting truck-style upper and lower wood-grain trim.
It also has custom Cheyenne K5 billet emblems from Rad Machine on
the factory GM font. The second black option is the restored
double-wall top that has been completely torn down and retextured
with black inside and out, assembled with all-new seals and glass
and upgraded with gas struts on the rear hatch. The third black
option is the classic-minded interior, which features restored
factory seats in custom bolstered form finished in classic black
and houndstooth inserts with frenched-in seams, wood-grain panels,
wrapped deluxe door panels and a factory console with upgraded cup
holders. The retro gauges recall the glamour era of the truck with
the RTX Dakota Digital display, while still maintaining that stock
look. It features a Classic Performance Products tilt column, is
sporting a SureGrip wheel and has an Autosound digital but
stock-appearing radio and black slide controls for the Vintage Air
system. The dash is finished off in the classic wood grain with a
Cheyenne Super glove box emblem. It features an all-new factory
green-tint glass and seals throughout.
