Description for Chevrolet Blazer 1971

1971 Chevy K5 Blazer - The Blazer was designed and marketed to compete with International Harvester Scout and the Ford Bronco. Both of these were originally aimed at the short Jeep CJ series, hich were much smaller  than other trucks. The great innovation of the Blazer was to simply offer a shortened pickup truck, hich both increased interior space, nd lowered the cost of production with a shared platform. The Blazer quickly became popular. For  the first time, t married the off-road capabilities of the Scout with the "luxury" features like air conditioning and automatic transmissions routinely available on pickup trucks. By 1970, he Blazer was already outselling both of its  older rivals. Ford, odge, nd even Jeep would counter with similar shortened pickups, ith the Dodge Ramcharger and Jeep Cherokee. The two-wheel drive version came with independent front suspension and rear trailing arms, oth with  coil springs. The four-wheel drive version had a solid front axle and used leaf springs front and rear. Both versions used drum brakes at all four corners until 1971, hen the entire GM light truck line got standard front discs. 

Look no further! You have just found the nicest 1971 K5 Blazer on the market that you can drive daily. This is not a "trailer queen" but it is an extremely nice driver that turns heads everywhere it goes. We started in March with a 107k mile  straight and rust free body that retained it's original 350 V8 engine. The engine has under 5k miles since a rebuild around 15 years ago. According to the previous owner, is father purchased the K5 in 1972 as the 2nd owner and the  Chevrolet remained in their family until we purchased it in 2015. His father used the Blazer as a daily driver at first and then later in his ownership it was primarily and weekend/hunting trip vehicle. For that reason, hey had a Sidewinderâ„¢ winch custom mounted behind the front bumper and a tow receiver mounted on the rear. Upon arrival to Texas, e completed an extensive list of "beautification" to get the K5 ready for a new home. We had the entire Chevy repainted,  installed new emblems, eplaced a majority of the gaskets/seals, nd added a set of brand new tires. On the inside the K5 received new carpet, enter console, nstrument bezel, e-upholstered seats, nd a brand new steering wheel. When  we purchased this Blazer, he owner told us, ... he wouldn't be scared to drive this baby to any location no matter the distance..." From our miles behind the wheel we have the same impression and only had to perform a routine tune-up and add  a new battery. Additional features and options include; 350 V8, utomatic Transmission, x4 On-the-Floor, ower Steering & Brakes, hrome Bumpers, hrome Mirrors, ent Windows, actory Delco AM Radio, enter Console Storage, wners  Manuals, 5" Rally Wheels, nd brand new Mastercraftâ„¢ 31x10.5 R15LT Tires!
