Chevy's full-size SUV, the K5 Blazer nameplate, was quite popular in the Seventies and Eighties. However, the K5 Blazer's story actually starts in 1969, with a short-lived first generation that was only around until the end of the 1972 model year. Up for grabs today is one of those examples, a 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer that's more of a restomod. We're told that it was painted in 2005 and packs many interesting features. As to what they are, you'll have to read on and discover.
This particular 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer sports a visually intriguing color scheme. The black body is augmented by an off-white roof that's actually a removable hard top. This means you can have a vehicle with proper all-weather protection, as well as the perfect open-air tool for enjoying the great outdoors. Tackling the great outdoors is facilitated by the set of 35-inch Bridgestone Dueler M/T tires that this vehicle enjoys. There's a steel toolbox in the back to keep your tools safe when driving around with the top off. Inside, there's a fairly period cabin, but tasteful upgrades such as black leather bucket seats and a cloth-trimmed rear bench seat are present. We're told that there's no air conditioning, so you'll need to retrofit that if you crave cold air. However, there is an aftermarket Alpine head unit that can play CDs with MP3, WMA and AAC files too. Speakers are mounted in the doors, as well as within boxes in the rear cabin, for an adequate listening experience. A few more things to note include the 8-ball styled gear knob and the three-spoke steering wheel with Chevy emblem on the center.
This 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is powered by a new 350ci crate engine that's got an Edelbrock air cleaner, all new hoses, fuel pump and alternator. A Borla catback exhaust enhances the engine's iconic V8 note and doubtless endows it with a few extra horses too. The drive is sent to the wheels through an automatic transmission.
The story of the Chevy K5 Blazer is an interesting one. Created as a variant of their C/K truck line-up, the K5 Blazer was a neat way for Chevy to add a full-size sport utility vehicle to their range without needing to invest in developing an entirely new vehicle. Debuting for the 1969 model year, the first K5 Blazer was well received by the public. Today’s 1971 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Restomod is a lovely first-generation example to celebrate its success, and it’s also a restomod. So you’ve got some of the latest conveniences to enjoy, wrapped up in a stylish Sixties package. What’s not to like about this Arizona-based SUV, then?
Classic motoring is something that should be away from the crystal clean floors, detailed chrome, and shiny interior - it should be an experience where patina slowly takes shape, where every drive brings memories of a lifetime. Present today is classic motoring on steroids and takes shape with this lovely 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer. With reported under 60,000 miles on its clock, this isn't just classic motoring but also venturing out into the great outdoors with style and an old-school drive feel.
The Chevrolet K5 Blazer was introduced to compete against the International Scout and the Ford Bronco. Developed on a shared platform, increasing interior space and lowering production costs, the K5 Blazer quickly became a hit in the 1970s, outselling its rivals. This particular 1972 model we have listed today has been restored from the ground up by Velocity using a VR-exclusive frame built by Roadster Shop. This Velocity Heritage Series truck honors the vintage charm of the original Chevy Blazer while incorporating fine details that distinguish it from other restorations.
Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
The first new Chevy truck to come out since World War II ended, the Advance Design era ran between 1947 and 1955. It replaced the older AK series and was bigger, stronger and sleeker in design. The range started with the 3100 half-tonner, and went on through the one-ton 3800, and into chassis cabs and medium-duty trucks. Now, the Advance Design has found some fame as a restomod platform. That’s what we have here, a 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod from Smithville, Texas. This truck has undergone a full makeover, including a new 396ci V8, a 4-speed automatic gearbox, air conditioning and much more. If you want to rock and roll around in something different to your typical classic car, this is a fine option to consider.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.

Are you the sort of person who prefers a classic off-roader rather than a car? Do you want your classic off-roader to have real off-roading chops, a fine legacy of dependability and come from a well-known American brand? If so, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 is perfect. Hailing from the illustrious Jeep CJ – that’s Civilian Jeep – legacy, the CJ was created shortly after World War II ended. Willys-Overland, the ones behind the popular Military Jeep knew that without war, their main customer wouldn’t be buying nearly as many vehicles from them. So, they switched gears and made the Jeep CJ, a tough, no-nonsense off-roader aimed at farmers and tradespersons who needed a simple vehicle with guts and four-wheel drive. This vehicle comes from the CJ-5 era which ran between 1954 and 1983. With its naturally aspirated V6, manual gearbox and aftermarket exhaust system, this 1958 Jeep CJ-5 has only done 167 miles since its thorough makeover.
Jeep’s CJ series of off-roaders is what gave rise to the Wrangler today. You can see the design similarities between the old and the new, despite the Wrangler’s notably larger size, plusher cabin, more powerful engine, etc. That iconic face remains largely intact, with the famous seven-bar grille signifying that the vehicle wearing it is capable of great off-road feats. The CJ series came about in 1944, when Willys-Overland knew that they had to switch to the civilian market to survive. World War II was ending, and the military wouldn’t be needing Jeeps like cigarettes anymore. So, the CJ was born, standing for Civilian Jeep. It was made to live a tough life in the fields of agriculture, construction, mining, manufacturing and other rough-and-tumble industries. Jeep knew that the civilian variant would have a lifespan in years or even decades, not months or weeks like its battleship brethren. Hence, the CJ is exceptionally well-built, and many survive to this day. This 1978 Jeep CJ-5 from Melbourne, Florida is proof of that quality.
