It's lika a sauna in here!


Isn't your whole state a sauna? I recall my trips to/through TX, once to Dallas, once to Houston and a few times driving across your great state with no a/c.

Some updated pics. Haven't done much other than completely gut the interior. Gonna rhino line the inside, and dress it up with diamond plate. Over the winter the plan is to get the interior done so I can convince my wife its nice enough to get a new motor.

bad a$$ lookin K5. clean&mean lookin. throw a 454 big block in her

i got a 95 chevy 2500 4x4 with a 454 big block in it. shes a big girl who loves the mud havnt done much with it for upgrades other then rebuildin the whole front end. id like to lift it and put tires on it, but i cant afford the gas(7mpg) so im tradin it or sellin it for a yota or subie. somethin better on gas.

Well been hard at it ocer the winter. Got the door panels and bed sides dressed out in diamond plate, funtioning 2003 chevy tahoe seats front and rear, 10 sub in custom centerconsole box, and as soon as i can get a good 70+degree week i will be spraying the floor and newly fiberglasses dashpad with spray in raptor liner. It also got a hood scoop, little more lift, and wheel spacers. Also looking to install 550hp carburated lq9 LS engine in after some OT at work😜

Lookin good! Kinda makes me miss my old K5 a little. I sold it a couple years ago because the to do list kept growing and if I would have kept it I would have ended up dumping a ton more money into it (already had almost 20k in it).

Sometime I would like to build a 2wd street rod K5 to cruise.

Nice Blazer!! I remember when mine was nice and straight and perty like yours!

I dropped a stock 06 6.0l out of a 2500hd in mine a few years ago and I love it. Howell Fuel Injection built my harness and programmed my ecm for a 40 or so hp gain and it can smoke 40" tires.

Well a new phase is about to occur with the old K5. Picking up a set of rockwell 2.5 tons for it next weekend. Got about 14" of lift i have to swap under it and then it should bolt right up after some custom spring perches. 11.2-24 tractor tires on custom cut bowtie rims. Gonna be more of a show truck/ride around toy for our local mud bogs.

[JoeTech]

Cant wait to see the progress.

[looneybin]

Got it half done. Got to bolt up my shackle flip and new rear springs then we can get to welding on the rear axle

[looneybin]

rear should be a bolt up affair aside from welding spring perch on.

[looneybin]

Those 40" roll arounds look tiny

[WICKEDWOLFRC]

Dig it! I'm going to try to find me a new K5 and get it "built" in the hopes of making it to Blazer Bash next September.....keep posting pics of your progress!

[looneybin]

Just got pictures of my lazer cut wheel centers from the fab shop. Cant wait to weld them up. Going in a set of 24"x12" rim shells. Going to gusset these as well. Probably going to run 12.4-24 or possibly 14.9-24s. Got to get the rear end welded up and get it sitting under its own weight before decide. Not going to cut her up

[looneybin]

Ole blazer grew up!
