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.

$89,999

The 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible comes from the heart of the C2 era, when the Corvette had already matured into a genuinely serious American sports car without losing the raw character that made the Sting Ray famous. This example leans heavily into that character. Showing 19,053 miles, it pairs a 327ci V8 with a four-barrel carburetor and a four-speed manual transmission, then adds the kind of period-style attitude enthusiasts gravitate toward: side-mount exhaust, knock-off-style turbine wheels, and a vivid Sunfire Yellow finish over a black interior. The current owner reports more than $83,000 invested into the build, with attention extending beyond cosmetics into the cooling system, ignition components, timing hardware, and other supporting mechanical upgrades. What makes this car appealing is that it still delivers the classic C2 experience in the way enthusiasts want it: small-block V8 up front, manual gearbox in the middle, drive going to the rear, and very little standing between the driver and the car. The side pipes give the Corvette a more aggressive presence and soundtrack, while the custom paint and wheel setup emphasize the long-hood, short-deck proportions that made the midyear Corvette one of Chevrolet’s most iconic designs.

It was also specified with the GCA Ultimate Package, adding a collection of appearance upgrades that give this Victory Red Corvette a more distinctive presence than a typical C6. An aftermarket front splitter and audio head unit add further personalization while retaining the fundamental character that makes a manual Z51 C6 such an appealing enthusiast car.
