NO RESERVE auction! The highest bidder wins. Up for sale is my 1991 K5 Blazer 4x4 Restomod. This was the last year of this body style and it is a rare truck. If you do not want attention, then this is not the truck for you. I get compliments and conversations are started almost everytime I drive it. Why am I selling it? I have too many cars and now use my wife's Escalade to tow our boat. I only drive it 1-2 times per month so it needs a new home where it can be appreciated. It started its life as a Fire department vehicle for the Franklinville, NJ fire department. It stayed with them until it had 87,000 miles. It was a 4x4 K5 Blazer with the 350 and 4 speed manual transmission. It had a frame off restoration done 5 years ago (5,800 miles ago).
