Pro Street K-5...CHEVYRODS old blazer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

FlaglerScott · 08-15-2010, 01:59 PM

Whats up forum, I picked up member CHEVYROD old blazer a few months ago and have been giving it a makeover, Apparently, he traded it to a guy In georgia for a bike, then it came back to Florida with a blown engine, That where I picked it up, It is still in the basic same condition just with a New 454 installed that I built and alot of Big block problems figured out and fixed (headers that actually fit inside frame

for one)......Well here are my pics of it since it has been back on the road, not much changed from 07 actually, it has sat in a garage for 3 years, I am gonna ditch the old school pro street look and order some bare steelies from early wheel and paint them yellow to match the firewall.....Enjoy

dbmx66 · 08-15-2010, 02:04 PM

looks badass btw

FlaglerScott · 08-15-2010, 02:16 PM

Not yet, still trying to find some and seat belts if anyone has any, K-5's are impossible to find down here in Junk Yards and LMC wants some serious boot for them

cochino12 · 08-15-2010, 05:34 PM

BAD ASS!!! keep the pro street look

FlaglerScott · 08-15-2010, 09:38 PM

nope, going by by for a more traditional hot rod look, smoothies painted yellow all the way around

spudz · 08-15-2010, 11:36 PM

but its tubed with a 9in? sniff sniff......pppppplease......keep the fat tires...... maybe different wheels but pro street looks bad ass on that thing. But to each his own and I hope you have a great time with it! its a nice truck for sure.

**N2TRUX** · 08-15-2010, 11:38 PM

Nice to see it back again. Keep us posted on your progress.

Driveway Dreams · 08-15-2010, 11:55 PM

Well, if you don't want the pro street look. I will just send you my rally wheels, with good tires and you can send me that set. That will work out great.

Glad to see it coming along. Looks good.

have always loved this blazer! SICK!

FlaglerScott · 08-16-2010, 07:08 AM

with the new set up i am doing, it will still be kinda pro street In a way, I wanna lay the truck out completely, With the rear, I cant, its impossible, the rears are 15x15 with a 33x19.50 tire, I am gonna do a 15x10 with a 2" back space(instead of a 6") to fill the well as much as I can, but with a 26x12.50 tire instead, that way I can lay the truck out completely in the rear, the front offset/size will not change, just a smoothie wheel instead of billet,

That blazer is awesome.....but your right the wheels and the pro-street look are kinda dated. I love pro-street but pro-touring is better!

bluex · 08-18-2010, 01:25 AM

Which wiper parts do you need. I'm swapping mine over to a 76 front end and dont need anything past the motor. I also have a set of seatbelts, but they are tan and pretty faded.

palposity · 08-18-2010, 05:22 PM

tvblazer78 · 09-08-2010, 04:24 PM

Happy to see that blazer back again, I talked to Chevyrods a lot when he has on here. keep us pasted!

1LoC10 · 09-08-2010, 04:35 PM

Looks like a cool ride.... not so sure how a 15X10 would look back there though

SS Delux · 09-08-2010, 10:01 PM

Is the rear frame cut at all to fit those massive meats on there ? It looks like a stock framerail from the pics.

dlhughes2005 · 09-09-2010, 11:18 PM

man i love this blazer! makes me want to do a pro-street setup with my truck

Chevyrod · 10-11-2010, 09:36 PM

Its been a while, but I had to check in. Seen the blazer for sale on Mautofied.com yesterday, layed out on 22's, looked amazing. Glad to see someone finish the old Blazer. Great Job!!!!!!!!!!!
