I am having the hardest time finding the K5 Blazers, I checked dealers ( no such luck) and private owners. They either want more $$$$ than the vehicle is actually worth or its piece of junk, literally. It doesn't have to be a "perfect" condition but I at least a decent one with "minor" issues. But it seems the more I read the more I realize that K5's are just major project vehicles.Whichasof right now I don't have too much time for.Could be wrong but this is the "trend"I am noticing in my search.Your thoughts?

 

Thats funny, cuz where i live, they are all over craigslist; not just the trucks, but parts for them too.

 

Everyone that I know with one is keeping it for life! Just ask Chevy Lover, he's got what, 3 now... LOL

 

Actually I have 4 now but the '90 has been undergoing restoration since March.
Yes they are hard to find in good shape. My '90 I paid $4,000 cdn for it, I have repaired the steering linkage, rear power window, passenger power window and I've been removing rust in preparation for a full paint job with colour change.
I could have kept the colour and the rust was minimal but I want it perfect.
It's easier to get the truck you want if you have a lot of time to look around and weed through the junk that is out there.
Good luck in your search, if you find a good one it's worth the effort.....in my opinion.

In my part of the area there are a lot of broncos on craigslist and parts, but few chevys, especially K5s. Not cool.

Chevy lover those are some awesome looking rides. Thanks for letting me know that these things are hard to find in "good" shape. I'm actually going to look around today. Thanks for the tips.
