Custom builds done right are few and far between; finding one that hasn't been overdone or vice versa is a tough task. However, this 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Velocity Signature Series we have today is the right blend of factory and custom and makes for the perfect weekend cruiser.
Exterior and Interior
A custom build done right doesn't have to be flashy; attention to detail makes a build stand out. This 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Velocity Signature Series sports a Bavarian Blue Exterior, which is reported to be a custom shade of Glasurit Paint. This custom build is reportedly built on a VR Exclusive Frame built by the Roadster Shop and features a Raptor liner undercarriage and bed liner. This custom SUV retains its factor styling. Look closer, and you will find LED Headlights, Custom Color Matching Safari Top, Chrome Components, and OEM Mirrors and Power Steps. In terms of shoes, this custom off-roader rides high off the ground thanks to a set of 18" alloy wheels, which are wrapped with 305/70R18 BFGoodrich T/A Tires. The Velocity leather interior on this 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Velocity Signature Series is a full-on custom build that pays tribute to the Blazer's original design. The current owner reports a host of upgrades to the interior which includes new glass and weather seals, a 6-point roll cage, Velocity Signature interior with front low back deats and rear bench, Velocity Custom weather floor mats, Velocity Exclusive Dakota Digital gauges, Touchscreen BT Digital Head Unit with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, Focal Audio Sound System, Ididit Tilt Steering Column, a classic wood steering wheel and a Vintage Air A/C system.
Engine
A great custom build doesn't just pay attention to what's on the outside; every detail and aspect counts. Pop open the hood of this 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Velocity Signature Series, and you will find a Gen V GM 6.2L LT1 V8 powertrain ready to rumble and ensure great times off the beaten path. The current owner reports a host of tasteful upgrades, which include a Holley Mid Mount Serpentine System, Velocity Exclusive Performance Exhaust With MagnaFlow Mufflers and Velocity Exclusive Aluminum Fuel Tank for performance upgrades. The bump up in performance is matched with suspension and braking enhancements; in place are 4 Wheel Wilwood Disc Brakes with Hydra boost Assisted Braking, Fox Coilovers, Front and Rear Sway Bars, Dana 44 Front Axel, and Dana 60 Rear Axle. All this upgraded performance is channeled to all four wheels of this custom build through a 10-speed Automatic Transmission.
The K5 Blazer is one of the defining full-size American 4x4s of its era, combining the hardware of a traditional Chevrolet truck with a shorter two-door body and removable roof. This 1984 Chevrolet K5 Blazer shows 52,293 miles and keeps that classic formula intact with V8 power, an automatic transmission, dual-range four-wheel drive, and solid axles. Its removable fiberglass hardtop adds the open-air element that helped distinguish the K5 from conventional SUVs, while the period-style Rally wheels, BFGoodrich all-terrain tires, and burgundy cabin complete the unmistakably 1980s presentation.
Tune into the modern world of SUVs, and you instantly notice how competitive it all is; each manufacturer rushes to make the next big leap forward. Competition is nice; it brings out the best in one's capabilities, and a closer look reveals names that have been fighting to be on the podium for the better part of a half-century. The modern-day Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco, and Jeep Cherokee are homegrown SUVs, and their modern-day iterations have a way of charming the modern-day car buyer, but you could lose interest in being behind the wheel of one and opt for the latest model with all its latest subscriptions. Present today is the old-school SUV; it’s a machine far from online subscriptions and motivates you to subscribe to good drives. This 1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer hails from Denver, Colorado, and is looking for a new partner to clock in those smiles-per-gallon kinda miles, while reportedly having only 53,699 miles on it.
The forerunner to today’s Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon, the K5 Blazer was available between 1969 and 1994, across three generations. It’s built on a shortened C/K-Series half-ton truck platform, and offers a proper, four-wheel drive SUV for those who want to venture off-road at will. That’s why this fine blue second-generation 1986 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is the ideal adventure vehicle. It’s got a low 39,000 miles on the clock, comes with the owner’s manual, and two full sets of keys too. Currently domiciled in Winneconne, Wisconsin, it’s the ideal weekend getaway tool, given its refreshing lack of frustrating menus, digital distractions and soul-sucking software nannies.
Few cars capture late-1980s American performance quite like a C4 Corvette. With its long clamshell hood, low-slung cockpit, pop-up headlights, and unmistakable V8 soundtrack, the C4 represented a dramatic leap forward for America’s sports car. This 1988 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible shows 56,274 miles and combines its 5.7-liter L98 V8 with a 4-speed automatic transmission and the desirable Z52 Sport Handling Package. Dark Red Metallic paint, a Saddle convertible top and matching Saddle leather cabin give it a quintessential period color combination, while a rear luggage rack adds another classic grand-touring touch.
The 1961 Chevrolet Corvair 95 Rampside Pickup is one of Chevrolet’s most unconventional utility vehicles, combining a forward-control cab with the Corvair’s rear-mounted, air-cooled powertrain and a genuinely clever side-loading pickup bed. Showing 23,258 miles, this example is powered by a 145ci air-cooled flat-six with dual single-barrel carburetors and a 4-speed manual transmission. Its signature passenger-side loading ramp, rear-mounted engine, compact proportions, and distinctive cab-over styling give the Rampside an identity unlike virtually any other American pickup of the period.
