Just bought this with 49k original miles.

asolde · 09-12-2014, 10:15 AM

Here's mine

Chulisohombre · 09-12-2014, 10:42 AM

Nice blazers guys. I got mine from a junkyard. So it's a survivor. Not perfect by any means as it was gutted. But at least it didn't get scrapped.i have repaired it and done a lot of body work. Finding interior pieces has been the hardest and most expensive to find.

Rack Man · 09-12-2014, 12:01 PM

Here's a nice survivor on Ebay...

Nice pics fellas! Let's see some interiors and engine shots for documentation for future builds.

grillzy · 09-12-2014, 07:18 PM

My original paint 1972 "Old Blue". He also has complete original drive train. Not original front seats- but looing for a pair.

I absolutely love this one, ArkGL01. It's now in my top 5 K5s in this forum. DeadHeadNM and Asolde made the list too. Notice a trend? I'm obsessed with Steelies and dog dishes.

Are those 31x10.50 BFG AT KOs, Ark?

Here's my '71

Yes they are. I am thinking white letters would look better on it but dunno yet?

I'm actually the new owner. Finalized today. Arranging shipment...fired up!!!

Early mid-life crisis. This is what I drove in HS. Also a survivor (pic from '96). It was a Jimmy 4spd manual. Would love that combo again, but I've given up hope.

Unfortunately it slipped down a creek embankment 9 months later after that photo and ended upside down with all the passenger panels messed up and a severely damaged window frame. 4 folks in the ride at the time...no one had a scratch due to roll bar..which will be the first thing I install.

Torn on whether to pain right away. Its original paint but worn thin everywhere...particularly the hood. Also torn on brushguard, but think I'm going to leave it. The only thing I may do is remove extra two gas tanks taking up room behind both wheel wells...only do that if I repaint.

Pic of new rig...still not in my possession...can't come soon enough.

This is my first post on the forum. I've spent many of hours lurking while I search my new ride. This is such a wonderful resource and so many of you have such excellent rides!

And to the OP, dig the user name. Never got to see them, but I'm rocking out 5/8/77 at the moment. And to the OP, dig the user name. Never got to see them, but I'm rocking out 5/8/77 at the moment.

Very nice pair of K5s and welcome to the site! Please post more pics of the Blazer when it arrives. Looks great as is - I'd just drive it for awhile and get to know it.

Chulisohombre · 09-17-2014, 08:00 AM

Looks pretty good from the one pic. Congrats. Too bad the first one rolled. It looked pretty nice too. I need that roll cage out of it. Can't find a good one anywhere that fits. Nobody wants the headache of building one for me. Could always clear coat the stock paint to preserve the patina. A lot of guys I've seen been doing that lately if the paint is still in decent shape.

briank · 09-17-2014, 10:40 AM

Nice looking ride.....I was watching that one on ebay to see what it did,like the color too (I have one that color too.)

smbrouss70 · 09-18-2014, 10:31 AM

Here's my survivor. The only thing not original is the drop and wheels... and the crappy mirrors, which have already been replaced.

gringoloco · 12-14-2014, 12:59 AM

My junk, unrestored:

stomper · 12-14-2014, 01:11 AM

Gorgeous ^^^ best color!

Chulisohombre · 12-14-2014, 02:07 AM

Great if that is original and unrestored gringoloco. Looks like she just rolled off the showroom floor.

**praisegeetarman** · 12-14-2014, 02:23 AM

Here's my survivor. It's a 71 with 74,000 original miles. Original paint and interior. Stock radio, original motor and trans. Winch was installed when it was new. I have the original bumper. No rust.

She has her issues, but just rolled 100k with no major modifications (yet).
