This 1973 Chevrolet K5 Blazer is a two-wheel-drive model that was the subject of a custom build completed in 2026 with work that involved the installation of a supercharged 6.2-liter LSA V8 linked to a Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission and a 12-bolt rear end. The body was repainted in blue with red, blue, and white graphics, and the removable hardtop was smoothed and painted white. Chassis modifications include tubular front control arms, a rear four-link setup with adjustable links, adjustable coilovers at each corner, and C-notched rear frame rails as well as power rack-and-pinion steering and Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors. Inside, aftermarket front bucket seats and a rear bench are trimmed in black leather with diamond-stitched inserts, and a four-point roll bar is installed along with Crow harnesses, a fabricated center console, a JVC touchscreen stereo, a tilting steering column, and Dakota Digital gauges. Additional equipment includes a cowl hood, a custom-fabricated radiator cover panel, CVF Racing hood hinges, and a dual exhaust system with coated headers and side outlets. This custom-built K5 Blazer was acquired by the owner, a California retail dealer, in 2026, and it is now offered by the seller on behalf of the selling dealer with a California title.
The body was repainted in blue with white, red, and blue graphics in 2026, according to the seller, and the removable hardtop was smoothed and painted white. Side mirrors have been removed, and equipment includes a cowl hood, chrome bumpers, and “BL1” badging.
The chassis has been modified with tubular front control arms, a rear four-link setup with adjustable links, adjustable coilovers at each corner, and C-notched rear frame rails for axle clearance. The truck is equipped with power rack-and-pinion steering and front and rear sway bars.
Braking is handled by Wilwood four-wheel discs with red calipers and drilled and slotted rotors, and brake cooling ducts run below the front bumper for the front discs and are fed by holes in the cargo windows for the rear discs. Black-finished Triumph Forged alloy wheels are wrapped in 245/35 front and 335/30 rear Lionhart tires.
The cabin features aftermarket front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in black leather with diamond-stitched inserts along with coordinated door panels and gray patterned carpets. A four-point roll bar is installed along with Crow safety harnesses, and appointments include a custom center console, a JVC touchscreen stereo unit, Classic Auto Air climate control, and a Tremec shifter. The battery is mounted behind the rear bench.
The Budnik steering wheel is mounted on a tilting column and frames a set of Dakota Digital gauges consisting of a 160-mph speedometer, a tachometer, dual digital displays, and readouts for voltage, oil pressure, fuel level, and coolant temperature. The digital odometer indicates 0 miles, and the gauges will require further calibration.
The supercharged 6.2-liter LSA V8 was installed during the 2026 build, at which time the firewall was smoothed, a custom carbon-fiber front engine-compartment skirt was installed, and the engine compartment was painted to match the exterior. The hood is mounted on billet CVF Racing hinges.
Power is routed to the rear or all four wheels via a Tremec T56 six-speed manual transmission and a 12-bolt rear end with a limited-slip differential. Coated headers feed into a dual exhaust system that exits on each side ahead of the rear wheels.
