Vehicle Description
You'd expect to pay handsomely for a restored 1978 Chevrolet K5
Blazer. But this affordable price is for real, and the condition of
this 4x4 is even better than the pictures can show.
There are a lot less of these round headlight K5s running around
these days. The classic Chevy front end really gives this one extra
distinction. Of course, what's really grabbing everyone's attention
is the paint. The black was part of the investment in a quality
restoration. The modern application has a high gloss and shine that
makes you believe they make black mirrors. And since no
imperfections can hide from a finish like this, the flat sheetmetal
and its well-creased lines are highlighting a life well lived. Even
the chrome bumpers have a mirror-like quality. But as good as this
one looks, it also still knows how to get down to business.
Features like the trailer hitch and tall 4x4 prowess let you know
this full-size Blazer can work or play just as hard as you can.
Arguably, there's nothing better on a black exterior than a red
interior. This is especially true since the restoration heavily
focused on the interior. You get cushy bucket seats up front,
carpeting, door panels, and dash pad are all restored to have a
fresh and deep red appearance. We know you're going to love showing
this off, and you can do more of it by removing the hard top and
getting the full open-air pickup experience. And since the R134a
air conditioning is blowing cold, you can do it all summer long!
While those will likely be your favorite features, they are far
from the only upgrades in this loaded machine. Also, the full gauge
panel and side trim have been finished in real wood.
Under the hood is Chevy's famous 350 cubic-inch V8. Topped with a
Quadrajet four-barrel carburetor, this quite correct-looking motor
produces the right power for the street or trail. That is great in
a go-anywhere 4x4 that has a two-speed transfer case for the best
off-road performance. The V8 is legendary for being quite
adaptable, but right now this powerplant appears charmingly quite
factory correct. That also means it has led a good life, and that's
reflected in how it fires up readily and idles smoothly. And while
you might like its ability to attack the trail, this is also an
easy cruiser thanks to a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission,
power steering, front disc brakes, and Michelin LXT tires on newer
Eagle Alloy wheels.
This Blazer is so well presented, we even believe the 45,597 on the
odometer could be actual. It has been given all the right
investments to be your new cherished classic off-road machine. But
you're not the only one who recognizes a good deal, so don't miss
out. Call today!!!
