I don't see many of those generation Chevy K5 Blazers & GMC Jimmys on the roads anymore like I use to back in the day, especially the crew cab pickups & Suburbans, but the regular cab pickups on the other hand I still see on the roads sometimes.

My uncle owned two Jimmy's a 73 first year for the burnt orange color and also first square body full convertible took us fishing to the Rio Grande here in El Paso, Tx he had that one for a couple of years sold it and bought an 81 Jimmy that one was onyx black with quicksilver metallic with a red pinstripe the separated both colors if I recall 81 was the first year you could engage the 4x4 on the fly he'd take us camping to Ruidoso, NM, Elephant Butte, NM and four wheeling in Redsands in El Paso, Tx he had that one for like 16 yrs he passed Oct of 2021 and out of those fond memories I bought myself a 90 Jimmy which I have now converted to convertible like my uncles first Jimmy and looking to paint it like his second Jimmy once it's done I'll start creating fond memories of my own

That's a beautiful k5. I think it either needs the original chrome trim or just take this other crap off and have a clean body
@jeffreyjohnson31034 ай бұрын
That's the original molding. You can see it on the option list in the glove box - "Body Side Spear Molding". I agree the double chrome moldings that were standard on the Cheyenne and optional on Custom Deluxe looks better, but this is original.

I've never seen trim like that on any 70s chevy. I'll take your word for it. Original or not, it would look better without it

Wow!!! OK well have to make some comments about this video. It is not an all original blazer. First it does have ac. You can clearly see the compressor on the engine. It has ac vents in the passenger side trim of the dash and it has the controls where the pocket on a non ac truck would be. It also has a very shallow glove box to fit the aftermarket ac. Second the speedometer is not the correct one for that truck. They did not have kph on until later on. Third the trim on the side of the truck is not a factory option. Maybe it was dealer installed but did not roll out of the factory with that trim.

Way back in 1976 we put all of those accessories on the truck like today's trucks they are LPO's aka Dealer installed accessories but I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It was a fun quick walkthrough of a fantastic old Chevy!

Yes it did roll out of the factory with that trim. You can see it on the option list - Body Side Spear Molding. These were optional on the Custom Deluxe. They also started using this on the pickups. The A/C is definitely aftermarket though. Also, this truck is Crimson Red, not orange.

The truck is not all original you find me one that actually came off the line with that intake manifold and carb. Because that intake was from the 283 and 327 time frame. so no not all original

Local farmer who owned a Tire Business bought it new and had it in his heated garage all these years. So kinda like a barn find but the barn was attached to the house and the everyone knew it was there, lol.
