1970 Chevrolet K5 Blazer 1969-1972

This 1970 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is finished in metallic gold with white accents and a white removable hardtop, and it is powered by a 396ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. According to the seller, refurbishment work prior to purchasing the truck in 2016 included a repaint, replacement white vinyl upholstery, and installing the replacement big-block V8. Equipment includes a chrome roll bar, Mickey Thompson wheels with Baja MTZ tires, a 6″ suspension lift, power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes, and a Sony CD stereo with Bluetooth connectivity mounted in a custom wooden center console. This K5 Blazer is now offered in Canada with clean Ontario registration in the seller’s name. The body is finished in metallic gold with white tailgate lettering and a white removable hardtop, and the seller believes it was refinished during previous ownership. Chrome accents include dual side mirrors, factory-style bumpers, and an aftermarket four-point roll bar. The seller notes several scratches and paint chips, as well as bubbles on each quarter panel behind the lower rear corner of the doors. Mickey Thompson simulated beadlock wheels feature polished centers and gold lips, and they are wrapped in Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ tires. Modifications include four-wheel disc brakes, a 6″ suspension lift, and aftermarket steering stabilizer shocks. The interior was reportedly refurbished during previous ownership and features white vinyl upholstery, tan retractable lap belts, matching door panel inserts, a black dash pad, and black rubber floor coverings. A custom wood center console houses a Sony CD stereo with Bluetooth connectivity, and the factory Delco AM radio remains in the dash. The two-spoke steering wheel fronts a 100-mph speedometer and a fuel-level gauge. Auxiliary aftermarket gauges under the dash display water temperature, oil pressure, and battery voltage. The five-digit odometer shows 42k miles, approximately 5k of which were added by the seller since 2016. True mileage is unknown. The 396ci big-block V8 was installed during previous ownership and features roller rocker arms, an aftermarket camshaft, an aluminum intake manifold, and chrome valve covers. Additional equipment includes an Edelbrock air cleaner and tubular exhaust headers. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The seller states that the transfer case will not shift into two-wheel-drive, and the front driveshaft has been removed so that only the rear wheels are driven. Leaks are noted at the front differential pinion seal as well as from the transmission.
