Very nice blazer- only way it could be better is if it was a 72 with extremes on it.😁

Re: K5 restomod at SEMA

Yeah, but that would've doubled the cost of the build

Re: K5 restomod at SEMA

Nice rig. But what's with the hubs? How do you lock them?
Not that this truck will ever see any surface other than ex-hall show carpet.

From the article I'd say it's full time 4WD.

Re: K5 restomod at SEMA

Is it me or are the doors and quarters different colors? Might just be the light. I can appreciate the work that went into it but so not my taste.

I thought that too! Probably painted at different times.

Re: K5 restomod at SEMA

Very nice. But I still like mine better Why did they cheese out with the S-10 steering wheel on a 100K build?

My thought exactly...it just isn't complete without the extreme bend tow hooks...

This exactly that’s the thing that glared at me thru all the interior pics. That mid 80s s-10 wheel is hideous even wrapped in leather. The only other gripe I’ve got is the late 80s 4x4 shifter. I never have been a fan of the look of them either. Especially on this kind of build... all in all VERY NICE BLAZER!!
