Once upon a time when I was seventeen I bought a 1970 K5 Blazer to replace my 1969 C10. I got older and sold the Blazer for a 1976 K10 which was later replaced by a 1979 CJ-5. But all that time I missed my Blazer, so bye bye Jeep and here is my new toy, a 1972 CST K5 Blazer. The 72 Blazer has 84,000 miles, single wall top, tilt, P/S, P/B, AC (not working), HEI, 700R4, NP208 etc... Future plans for now restore the body, new paint, four inch lift, 35's, new wheels, 69 grille and bumper.

Looks nice! I like the two-tone paint. Interesting t-case choice - probably because it was already mated to the 700R4.

What's wrong with the body and paint? I like it the way it is now...

Nice Blazer, Rg

Very nice Blazer! I'd leave it as is too. Where you at in MO? I'm originally from Fordland...about 30 miles east of Spfld.

Good buy Gunner....I actually tossed in a couple of bids on that Blazer, but didn't get the job done! I'm still looking for one...so please email me if you happen to see any more in your area. I'm located in Northeast Missouri.
