Re: Why no 70 K5's

I've got one, but don't have the money or place to work on it, so I haven't started a thread on it.

Re: Why no 70 K5's

Hello from upstate NY. Heres my 70. Ive been meaning to put somepics up when I get some good clean clean shots, but that never happens. My brother used it for a week when he was in from Afganistan on leave as his daily driver and broke in my new reman 350 and got here nice n dirty. Poor thing useually just sleeps in the garage.

Re: Why no 70 K5's

I got a 72, here she is looking all sexy. I think I see a lot more 72's on here than anything else. Although this thread seems to be mostly 70's.

Sorry, misread the OP. Just take this as a shameless opportunity to post up my truck.

Re: Why no 70 K5's

I am glad to see the great response by the 70 Blazer crowd, but I know there are more out there.

Re: Why no 70 K5's

I just picked this 1970 up yesterday from the original owner's son.



Any idea how many were produced in the orange/white combo?

Re: Why no 70 K5's

That is a good question, how could we find out how many orange and white 70 K5's were produced. Does anyone know?

Maybe they are all wrecked due to the fading drum brakes.

Re: Why no 70 K5's

Ya, I think they have the best looking grilles. They bring a pretty good price when you have to replace one.
