I was ran across a 1979 K5 Blazer red/ white 2 tone factory paint called her peppermint paddy due to her red/ white paint scheme like a peppermint disk … it was full time for wheel drive so had mileage was horrible got about 8 miles to the gallon but she was in perfect working condition inside and out .. drove it from 94 until 2002 … I have owned several suburban , tahoes, Yukons , and Escalades throughout out my life time… That 79 K 5 along with a 1989 Woody Hayes Ohio state special edition suburban will be hands down the best vehicles I ever owned… Long Live Chevy/GMC … ijs 🐐🐐🐐🐐❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾

@emonicky412 3 года назад

Honestly finding perfect old classics like that is probably the hardest thing to do anymore. most have been slammed, lifted, stripped into parts or turned to something that cost so much just because of the unoriginal parts. classic cars have been slowly disappearing and it’s heart breaking to watch car by car disappear or become something that doesn’t show it’s history. honestly thank you so very much for not doing what most would do and completely making the vehicle mostly aftermarket and over priced. thank you for keeping the original look of the truck and especially the motor!

@codyralston1372 Год назад

I don’t think I’ve seen a more beautiful K5… really makes me miss mine… even if it was an old rust bucket with holes in the floorboard that guzzled gas faster than a Marine on Liberty guzzles alcohol. It never failed me… failed one single time on my mom when the driveshaft slipped smacked the pavement at about 60 MPH and cracked the transmission. Would’ve loved to have fixed it up by my parents scrapped it while I was in boot.

@scavengerspc 3 года назад

Beautiful K5 Dennis. I love these earlier SUVs and have had many I have bought and did partial restorations on. I sell most after I redo them but my current keepers are 2 Broncos (68 and 77), 2 K5 Blazers (72 and 75), a 1980 Ramcharger, a 1969 International Harvester Scout, and a 68 Jeep Wagoneer. Just found your channel and love it.

My opinion anyway.

It’s about the love and the passion for the cars buddy, not their personalities that attract them to each other although the old saying about opposites attract, it does hold true for friendships as well!!

I have a 77 Chevy cheyenne k5 blazer. Very little rust and has never been in an accident. I'm the the third owner according to my father. It is not numbers matching. Built in flint michigan for California for the year 77. Original it had 350 small block with turbo 350 trans and np203 transfer case. It now gas 383 stroker crate motor from gm performance parts, a built 700r4 transmission, and rebuilt np205 transfer case. My father is passed on now. I told him and mom I would fully restore the k5 with time. I'm honered to see such a person like u in this video giving positive support for the old k5's.
