Vehicle Description
This custom 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer CST has undergone a complete
nut-and-bolt frame-off restoration. This 4x4 is powered by the
6.2-liter 383ci V8 engine from GM performance with performance
heads, Edelbrock performer intake and modern fuel injection. It has
been dressed out with the aluminum valve covers and the K&N air
cleaner with a new element. The engine is mated to a 4-speed
transmission with an NP205 transfer case and 12-bolt rear end. This
SUV is equipped with power steering and power brakes, with discs on
the front and out back. The engine bay of this K5 is clean, with
the firewall detailed in a base coat/clear coat like the rest of
the exterior. The exhaust has SS header manifolds with new dual
pipes and Flowmaster mufflers. The frame shows no signs of abuse,
the body bushings are in good condition and new dual shocks have
been installed up front and out back. It is finished in bright red
paint and has been redone in the base coat/clear coat paint with
countless hours spent buffing and polishing it to a mirror finish.
This is accented by the white top that was redone at the time of
the restoration. All-new weatherstripping has been installed, and
all the glass is in new condition as well. Up front, the grille and
all the stainless steel is like new, along with the front bumper.
Out back, the tailgate trim looks to have been installed new, along
with the bumper. All the side moldings, emblems and marker lights
appear to have been replaced at the time of the restoration. To
finish off this Blazer, it sits on a new set of 15-inch aluminum
wheels with 33x12.5 MT tires. The interior is finished in the
factory-optioned black and red color scheme that complements the
exterior. Everything on the inside is is either new or like new. An
all-new carpet was installed, along with the deluxe door panels,
TMI stock-looking recliner bucket seats, factory center console and
matching bench seat. All the gauges work as they should. The
factory-style knobbed radio is still present, along with the air
controls in their factory location. This truck has been upgraded to
a Vintage Air system with cold air conditioning and modern heat.
Inside the glove box it retains the factory sticker options.
