This Chevrolet K5 Blazer 1973-1991 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1974 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is a running project that is finished in dark blue over brown upholstery. Power comes from a 350ci V8 linked to a three-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes a removable black hardtop, an aftermarket front bumper, a body lift, a Rancho suspension lift, locking front hubs, a Hurst transfer case shifter, a dual exhaust system, tubular exhaust headers, and an Edelbrock Performer carburetor and intake manifold. This K5 Blazer project was acquired by the selling dealer in 2021 and is offered at no reserve in Virginia with a removed Vortec V8, a four-speed automatic transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and a clean Missouri title.
