1975 Chevy K5 Blazer Cheyenne – While Jeep, International, and Ford had been making small off-road-oriented but decidedly on-road used multi-purpose vehicles, it was GM who super-sized them to the half-ton pickup platform. Essentially a K-10 pickup with a very short integral box as part of the interior, the K-5 Blazer pioneered the pickup-based SUV. While retaining the stock pickup doors, the standard top was made out of fiberglass and could be unbolted. The Blazer was also available without a top or with a vinyl soft top, but the hard top was by far the most popular choice. All Blazers had a tailgate/lift gate configuration in the back. Both model range and powertrain availability also mirrored the half-ton pickups. The Blazer proved successful enough that when GM redesigned their trucks for 1973, the Blazer was part of the program. For the second generation Chevrolet Blazer the top was abbreviated, just covering the rear section aft of the cab. Again, model range and powertrains mirrored the pickups. It was also successful enough that it was copied by Chrysler with the Dodge Ramchager and Plymouth Trailduster in 1974 and by Ford with the second-generation of the popular Bronco in 1978.

It’s not often you locate a nicely restored Blazer and finding a last year of the full convertible like this 1975 makes it extra special! While this Blazer was born with a 350 it has been upgraded to a 454 with Sniper fuel injection for added performance. The iconic, two-tone Blue & White exterior look amazing and is complemented nicely by a custom tan vinyl interior with blue Highlander plaid inserts. The black soft top seen in photos is in excellent condition and we are also including the original hardtop which we just finished professionally restoring. Cruising is enhanced by an custom stereo system and you can’t go anywhere without this Blazer turning heads. There are currently 2 small flaws on the hood and the driver door that we plan to fix soon. If we don’t have time, price will be adjusted accordingly. Additional features and options include; 454 V8, Sniper F.I., Aluminum Radiator, Chrome Valve Covers, Chrome Air Cleaner, Auto, 4×4, A/C, Center Console Storage, Chrome Mirrors/Bumpers/Grille, Rubber Floormats, Owners Manual, Power Steering/Brakes, Retro AM/FM Radio, Custom Stereo, Tilt Steering, Woodgrain Interior Trim, Comfort-grip Wood Wheel, Soft-ray Tinted Glass, Warn Locking Hubs, Tow Package, 15″ Rallye Wheels, and NEW BF Goodrich Raised White Letter 33 x 12.5 Tires! With under 2k miles on the restoration, this classic Blazer is one you want to let slip away!
