I haven't really posted any photos of my Blazer so I thought it's time. I bought it 2 years ago and haven't had any time to work on it because our house has taken all my free time. Now that the house is pretty much done I have been able to get some things done on the Blazer. It has been sitting out in the yard for the last 2 years so I decided to pull it out and mostly just clean it up so I can drive it for the summer before I tear into it too much. The before photos are from a few weeks ago when I moved it out of the yard.

Very nice looking truck. I like the stock steel wheels. They look good with dog-dish hubcaps (see pics of my truck

). The rally's look good too.

I may have asked you before, but where do you live. My parents are on the other side of the bay above the old Cooston store. I went to North Bend (graduated in '87) and my parents owned McInerney's Auto Parts behind the 7-11 in Empire.

Sweet Blazer man, I love green. I got my 70 RS/SS Camaro and it was the middle shade of green (in 70 the Camaro came with a light, medium and the dark forest green like your Blazer) so I painted it the dark forest green. Man, green isn't a popular color for some reason, but me likey!!

72BlckButy · 06-09-2008, 04:11 PM

Great looking Blazer!

Jtrux · 06-09-2008, 05:28 PM

Looks good, the rally's are growing on me, can't decide if I want them myself or not.

LUV2XCLR8 · 06-09-2008, 06:24 PM

Looks real nice. Any pics of the interior?

**special-K** · 06-10-2008, 06:04 AM

Looking good!I believe that`s a Hickey roof rack.Nice period accessory.

Big J · 06-10-2008, 07:55 AM

Thats a nice lookin' K5. The ralleys look sweet! Thats the same route I took with mine. Only with 35" mud terrains. Are those 32's or 33's? lift?

The interior is nothing special to look at right now. I took the carpet out and it just has the factory front buckets, it came from the factory without a rear seat but I will be putting one in.

I was wondering about that roof rack I have never seen another one like it but it's definitely for a Blazer. At first I thought about taking it off, but I am starting to like it now.

No lift, just stock height with 31x10.5's

Jimma · 06-10-2008, 01:57 PM

I love that color! Looks like a great truck...

bouncytruck · 06-10-2008, 02:04 PM

Interesting, I've never seen a CST without a rear seat before.

That must mean it's ultra rare one of a kind worth thousands more than any other Blazer, right?
