The SUV market today is flooded with new entrants each quarter; however, the true essence of an SUV has been lost in the quest to cram in technology and comfort. Throw it back to the good old days of SUVs, when machines like the Ford Bronco and Chevrolet K5 Blazer set the tone with rugged off-road performance, practicality, and comfort for the entire family. Present today is an American hero, and it takes shape with this 1974 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Cheyenne. With a reported 60,000 miles on its clock, this classic SUV is a machine that motivates you to hit the off-road trail in style and is a looker from every angle.
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?

Chevy’s C6 or sixth-generation Corvette was sold between 2004 and 2013. Designed by Tom Peters, the C6 was a comprehensive redesign of America’s favorite sports car. Out went pop-up headlamps, primarily due to tightened pedestrian safety regulations that made this iconic feature a nightmare to engineer. But that’s probably the only negative thing about the C6. Everything else is enduringly positive, from the increased passenger cabin space despite the shorter overall length of the car, the new and more potent V8 under the hood, the improved handling and dynamics, plus more good things. Chevy also brought out the Z06 as the successor to the C5’s ZR1 high-performance derivative. The Z06 came with a massive 427ci small-block under the hood plus several performance improvements. Today, we have a rather special variant, in the form of this 2008 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Wil Cooksey Limited Edition #32. Up for sale in Overland Park, Kansas, this car has done under 10,000 miles and comes with Wil Cooksey’s signature. Just 505 examples of this special edition were ever produced, making it quite rare. Who is Wil Cooksey? A legendary Corvette plant head who worked his way to the top and left quite a mark on the Corvette for years after his retirement in 2008.

Over here these days, Toyota pickup trucks are typically the Tacoma or the Tundra. But in much of the rest of the world, the Toyota Hilux reigns supreme. Produced since March 1968, the Hilux was actually sold as the Toyota Pickup in the United States between 1972 and 1995, when it was a compact pickup truck. Now, it’s a mid-size pickup truck and has always used a body-on-frame construction method. The Hilux is famous for being exceptionally tough, and basically unkillable. Jeremy Clarkson tried to kill one on Top Gear and failed; even with a bent frame and myriad damage, the truck could still move under its own power. Today, we have a 1978 Toyota Hilux RN28L for sale from Fremont, California, with over 70,000 miles on the clock. It’s a second-generation example that appears to have been used quite carefully, making it a nice little classic to add to your collection.

The Sierra Classic package adds distinctive trim and interior appointments, positioning this example as a well-balanced build rather than a fully modernized conversion.
