BUT THE RED ONE ON THE TRAILER IS A FIVE LUG AND HAS A K5 BADGE ON THE FENDER?

All 70's blazers have a k5 on the finders, even mine had one.

tobiahr · 06-10-2008, 12:08 PM

there were only k5 badges on blazers but if you were to decode the vin the 2 wheel drives were c series and the 4 wheel drives k series. The c and k actually define the chassis type 2 or 4 wheel drive and the 10, 20 and 30 come from the series 1 = 1/2 ton 2 = 3/4 ton and 3 = 1 ton. I'm not really sure where chevy came up with the 5 in k5

WOW! Haven't seen my old truck in quite some time Ken!!

Sad to know it's sitting in a backyard rusting away now...the guy blew the motor within 3 weeks of buying it from me....and he won't sell it back. Says he's gonna "get to it" one day. Those wheels look damn near white now they are so far gone...

tvblazer78 · 06-10-2008, 09:44 AM

That sucks man.. That is to nice to let it sit out side all the time.

Crush · 06-10-2008, 09:55 AM

Yeah...when I was looking for another blazer at the end of last year I went and saw him to see if he'd sell it back. It's sitting in the backyard, hood up, back window down and driver door cracked open. Rod still sticking out the oil pan, and all four tires are dry rotted and flat.

it was a sad sight.

I wanna wait until I put the new rallies and grill on my truck before I do more pic whoring.
But here is N2TRUX's Blazer. It should be on here.
Crush,
I would love to see more pics of your old Blazer. I really dig it. Did it come that color, with the brown top or is that primer--either way--it looks good. To me visually if it were 1-1.5 inches lower in the front it would be perfect--atleast in that pic.

Crush · 06-10-2008, 10:57 AM

jdurant,

That was the colors it was when I bought it. Originally it was a mint green color. I bought it from the original owner who had it painted in the late 80's in the dark green with tan top. Interior was dark brown and woodgrain. All I did to it when I got it was put the 4/5 drop on it, wheels/tires and did the top-end of the motor with cam/vortecheads/headers/exhaust/air-gap intake...it was a fun truck.

Unfortunately I don't think I have anymore pics...Ken?

a few pics of mine, First purple one was when i bought it and some recent ones. Started it in November and pretty much buttoned it up in may. still working on the interior trim etc. Little stuff.....

**N2TRUX** · 06-10-2008, 11:00 PM

A 2wd Blazer is a K5 and a C-10 all at the same time. The confusion comes in because of the C/K designation that GM gave for 2 and 4wd trucks. K5 Has nothing to do with that designation.

Yes, it's a name GM gave the Blazer. All full size Blazers are K5's.

justpball · 01-21-2010, 10:17 AM

Wondering if anybody has seen one with a roll panned front and rear end? I'm thinking of doing this on my current project. Anybody know what the "rules" or legalities are for doing this?
