The Blazer was designed and marketed to compete with International Harvester Scout and the Ford Bronco. Both of these were originally aimed at the short Jeep CJ series, which were much smaller than other trucks. The great innovation of the Blazer was to simply offer a shortened pickup truck, which both increased interior space, and lowered the cost of production with a shared platform. The Blazer quickly became popular. For the first time, it married the off-road capabilities of the Scout with the "luxury" features like air conditioning and automatic transmissions routinely available on pickup trucks. By 1970, the Blazer was already outselling both of its older rivals. Ford, Dodge, and even Jeep would counter with similar shortened pickups, with the Dodge Ramcharger and Jeep Cherokee.

The 1971 Chevrolet K5 Blazer offered here is powered by a healthy 350/290hp v8 crate motor with aluminum heads, Edelbrock aluminum intake, Edelbrock carburetor, new dual electric cooling fans. The truck is equipped with a turbo 350 transmission and a NP205 transfer case, Dana 44 axles, posi traction rear end with 373 gears, new HD differential covers, new heavy duty steering box, new Cross Over Steering system, 6 inch suspension lift with no blocks, Bilstein shocks, factory tow hooks that were powder coated, factory skid plates, new carpet kit, factory roll bar, and more. The Blazer rides on 20x12 Fuel Chrome wheels with 35x13.5 mud gripper tires.

Vintage 4X4's remain very popular and the K5 Blazer remains a top target for off road enthusiasts to express themselves in quality customizations. The 1971 Blazer offered here offers a great look, a great ride on a great build offered here at a fraction of the cost to create.
