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.<\/p>\n<p>Ths amazing Blazer came to us via a small local collection of very nice classics. We&#8217;ve have actually been doing deals with the previous owner for over 20 years and he always builds great classics with a very open checkbook. This stunning Blazer was one of a few SUVs he built for his wife but due to an upcoming move, they have decided to &#8220;thin the heard.&#8221; The opportunity offered today is for a very nicely built K5 Blazer that was over 5 years in the making. As you will see in the photos this is a very tasteful, frame-off build with minor upgrades to set it apart from the crowd. You will notice the fenders are flared and the addition of a custom rollbar and soft top. A shaved firewall, tucked\/color-matched bumpers, and blacked-out grille &amp; mirrors finish off the look. The drivetrain features a Dickey Scoggins built 502 with 502hp along with a custom-built transmission and axles. Additional features and options include; Black TMI Leather Buckets, Vintage Air, 4&#215;4, Center Console Storage, Cloth Floormats, Nerf Bars, Power Steering &amp; Brakes, Retro AM\/FM Radio, Tilt Steering, 20&#8243; Fuel Alloy Wheels, and Toyo Open Country 35 x 12.5 Tires! Needless to say, but this build cost the owner much more than the asking price. The cliche, &#8220;One man&#8217;s loss is another man&#8217;s gain&#8221; definitely applies here.
