This is a 1972 Chevy K-5 Blazer. This is one of the rare Blazers because it has a full removable top, therefore giving you the comfort of a convertible. These vehicles are so much fun. You can go anywhere, you sit up high, and enjoy the fresh air with your friends. They only made these a couple years, and these are the most sought after Blazer of its kind. You can modify these trucks any way you want; and no matter what you do, they look cool. This truck has a few dents and rust spots, but I looked in the books that I have to locate parts, and for less than $500 you can buy all new panels and they are not that hard to put on. Everything you need is there - it just needs a little TLC.
This vehicle has a missing right front axle. The transmission slips. It has a few rust spots, and a few rips in the interior. The glass is out of the doors but is there.
This truck is equipped with the original 350 cu in motor with an automatic transmission and transfer case. As you know, the front axle is missing. I have a complete front end that will go with this truck plus Rally wheels and fairly good tires. I also have an automatic transmission and a transfer case that are in good shape that will also go with it.
These trucks have been featured in many movies and many rebuild shows, and there was just one on Counting Cars this last week. It was a 1973, and it was a beautiful truck. This one can be just as nice. These trucks hold their value. Any young driver today would love to have one of these Blazers to take care of.
So you Dads out there with a young son (or daughter) ready to drive, this is your opportunity to build one together and have an everlasting bond.
This is an "AS IS" Sale, no returns. Buyer handles all shipping costs.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
GM files for Z71 Trail Boss trademark
Mon, Jan 26 2015Try as they might to keep their plans a secret, automakers have their hands tipped through a variety of methods – be they through loose lips, spy shots or patent and trademark applications. That's how we know, in this instance, that General Motors is working on (or at least considering) an off-road machine wearing the name Z71 Trail Boss – the name which our compatriots at AutoGuide.com tell us that GM has registered for use on light-duty trucks. Now if that alphanumeric designator sounds familiar, it should. GM has long used it to designate the off-road packages on many of its body-on-frame trucks from Chevy and GMC. These days you can order a Z71 package on the Chevy Colorado, Silverado, Tahoe and Suburban and on the GMC Canyon, Sierra and Yukon. The package typically includes components like a beefed-up suspension bits, high-capacity air cleaner and underbody protection plates. The Trail Boss designator would seem to suggest something further reaching than a suspension package, though. Just what it would entail we don't know; minds immediately start running toward Chevy or GMC going after the Ford F-150 Raptor, but we'll likely be looking at something closer to the Trailhawk packages Jeep offers on the likes of the Renegade and Cherokee.

GM will recall more than 3.3 million vehicles in China for suspension defect
Sat, Sep 29 2018BEIJING (Reuters) - General Motors' joint venture in China, Shanghai GM, will recall more than 3.3 million Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicles stating Oct. 20 because of a defect with the suspension system, China's market regulator said on Saturday. GM Shanghai said in a text message to Reuters that the suspension arm may be deformed under extreme operating conditions, but there are no known casualties related to the issue. The recall includes cars produced between 2013 and 2018, the State Administration for Market Regulation said in a statement. GM will contact those affected and repair the vehicles free of charge, it said.
