Vehicle Detail

Hello. A good, long time friend of mine has asked me to sell his 1985 Chevrolet K-5 4x4 Blazer for him as he is very busy in his medical practice. He is a long time owner of this Blazer and he has advised me that he is ready to sell it as it is no longer needed. He purchased the Blazer in Phoenix, Arizona 7 or 8 years ago and transported it back home, here, in Kentucky. He wanted a white one and he also wanted one that was rust free and had never been operated on salty roads so the vehicle would be rust free. This one is just exactly that.....100% rust free, straight and solid, inside as well as out. It has all of it's original body panels and they are very nice as the photo's indicate. Once home, he had the Blazer refinished as the paint was chalked a bit from the Arizona sun. It was stripped and refinished all over several years ago. The paint finish is still nice, clean and shiney. He further had the stock 305 engine discarded, and he purchased a GM Goodwrench crate 350 v-8 and had that engine installed. The engine currently has almost 50,000 miles on it. While in there, he had the original transmission fully rebuilt, and it, as well, has about 50,000 miles. Mechanically, this Blazer is top notch and runs and drives very good. The body, as mentioned, is in excellent, rust free condition. The frame and undercarriage is also rust free. The interior is in need of some improvements as the photo's indicate. Some of the plastic trim needs renewed or replaced on the dash and door panels. The seats in front will need new covers as the originals suffered in that Arizona sun for sure. The dash looks good. The Blazer has a small lift kit and a nice set of tires and wheels. It is a solid, tight, excellent running K-5 that needs just a bit of TLC and some cash spent to bring it up to be a really nice, sharp, rare, K-5. It is nice to find one such as this that has a such a great body and chassis to begin with if you're in the market to fix one up. It runs out just fine as described, so you can drive it home to just about anywhere, I would imagine. I think that I have described it just about as good as I can, but I am sure there may be some question's or concern's. Feel free to contact me via, e-mail, text or just call. I will include my number at the end if you need to speak with us. We are good, simple folk's here. Thanks for looking at my friend's Blazer and God bless you all :) Here is my number: 1-859-553-6538. On Apr-16-14 at 04:27:03 PDT, seller added the following information: The vehicle's owner came by this week and we spoke about his Blazer at length. He brought along a huge folder holding several thousand dollars worth of receipts for repairs and upgrades that have been spent on this vehicle over the years. I was mistaken about his length of ownership. I thought that he had owned it for 7 or 8 years, but in reality it has been 11 years so far. Time flies. He related to me that the Blazer had been sold in California and had then been taken to Arizona which is where he found and purchased it. He has always kept in in good condition and it was always stored out of the direct weather when not in use. Thank you all for all of your question's and comment's.
