Went to a car show this weekend and was talking with the owner of a real nice Ochre and White 72 Cheyenne short bed. He said that he heard there was a K5 in a local junk yard. I went this morning and there it was...

That's too bad. I hate to see these trucks in the pick-n-pull yards. Around here they stay in the yard for a month or two and are gone forever. What year is it 71 or 72. Did you get any parts off of it, or are you planning to? I have an ocher Blazer that I could use a LH fender for.

If that is a single pane sliding window in the top i would make it worth your while to pull it for me provided its the side i need even if glass is broken.

I was hoping it was in better shape and less picked over, but I got a few good pieces off of it. The left fender is the best piece of sheetmetal on it. But with that said it still has a dent in it.

I would have taken the whole top, but it has a sun roof cut in to it too. The left side slider is in tact. The right side is broken.

If you go back id definitely make it worth your while to grab the sliders for me.

Still some usable pieces on the truck. The dash is uncut, has a nice pair of sun visors, front and rear differential in it, left front inner and outer fenders are usable.

Frankly, there looks to be a lot of useable parts on there...It's just if its worth your time/money.

Somebody's dream is sitting right there...

From what I can see that rig may be worth saving????


The last time I seen a K5 in a wrecking yard was in the mid 90's. it looked like it rolled down a hill and caught on fire...............but I dd manage to get a few parts off of it :lol:

Back hatch was already gone. I pulled the sliders and a few other gems for member DeadheadNM.

That's a $3000-4000 truck in the North east, as it sits.

That's one of the many things I love about this network of Blazer/truck fanatics. Someone spots good stuff in a wrecking yard in one state, and makes it available to others by pulling and shipping parts. It's all about the brotherhood.

This window shot partially shows One of the same wheels placed in the bed

If I transplant that driver side slider I'm now going to see the former owners face staring back at me whenever I look at it. I feel a little creeped out.
