1971 Chevrolet K5 Blazer

This 1971 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is a two-wheel-drive half-ton model finished in single-stage red paint with custom pinstripes and a removable body-color hardtop over a black vinyl interior equipped with HushMat sound deadening, power front seats, air conditioning, and custom Speedhut gauges. Under the hood is a 383ci "stroker" V8 connected to headers and a General Motors TH350 automatic transmission. Currently located in Canada, this customized first-generation K5 Blazer is available now with a clear title in the seller's name.

The current owner purchased the vehicle two years ago fully built. It comes dressed in single-stage red paint accented with custom gray and black pinstripes that run across the top of the fenders and doors. A body-color removable hardtop with a flip-up rear window covers the interior. The front end features shaved side markers, a painted grille, a smooth cowl filler panel from Scott’s Hotrods ‘n Customs, new windshield wipers, and the original re-chromed bumper. The driver's- and passenger's-side door handles and windows as well as the vent windows and window felts were replaced under previous ownership. In the back, the original bumper has been re-chromed and the stamped tailgate is flanked by billet Fesler taillights, according to the seller. 

The photo carousel to the right shows the Blazer on two sets of wheels, including 5-spoke American Racing wheels surrounded by Radar Dimax tires.

According to the seller, the doors, side panels, floor, and tailgate were covered with HushMat sound-deadening material. The cabin is furnished with black carpeting, black front bucket and rear bench seating, and body color and black door panels. The seller reports the power seats from a Lexus were reupholstered to match the door panels and rear seat. Equipment includes a tilt steering column, a billet steering wheel, a Pioneer head unit connected to speakers and a subwoofer, and a custom-made rear package tray. 

The 3-hole gauge cluster contains custom-made Speedhut gauges that include a 120-mph speedometer, an 8K-rpm tachometer, and more. This build has only accumulated 6,600 miles since completion, according to the current owner.

Inside the engine bay is a reportedly full-roller 383ci "stroker" V8 fitted with aluminum heads, a Weiand intake, a Holly Sniper EFI system, Hooker long tube headers, an HEI distributor, and 8-mm ignition wires. That routes its power through a 3-speed GM TH350 automatic transmission and the rear wheels.

Additional hardware reportedly includes power steering, a power steering cooler, a coil-spring front suspension, a trailing arm rear suspension, and Hydroboost brakes as well as a 12-bolt Positraction rear end with 3.08 gears.
