K5 Blazer @ U Pick & Pull - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**SoCoC10** · 09-12-2016, 09:59 PM

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.

**DeadheadNM** · 09-12-2016, 11:16 PM

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.

**DeadheadNM** · 09-12-2016, 11:51 PM

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

**SoCoC10** · 09-15-2016, 12:08 AM

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.

OldCreek · 09-15-2016, 01:32 AM

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

hops · 09-17-2016, 10:30 PM

probably better than my P.O.S.

jjzepplin · 09-18-2016, 09:50 AM

Check the back hatch to the top!!! Worth a bunch if good and yes GRAB them sliders no matter the condition!!!

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

JimmyFloyd · 09-19-2016, 11:03 AM

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.

**DeadheadNM** · 10-16-2016, 11:59 PM

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.
