Hi friends of blazer forum, My name is Luciano and i´m from Argentina. I´m a happy owner of Chevy Blazer ´05 turbo diesel 4x2(brazilian). I leave you some photos (I have removed the silver bumpers and the yellow lights too)



Blue blazer is the new one and the green blazer is the old one

 

Nice! I've never seen one like that before. Is it LHD or RHD?
Is itBrazilian builtor a US import?

I wish I could have had a choice between petrol & diesel.

 

Very cool. I would love to see some pictures of the interior if you get a chance!

 

Cool... never seen that style before. I agree more pics. Welcome to the forum!

 

Thanks a lot guys. I dont know the difference between LHD or RHD. Is something about the traction? If so, is rear traction.
In latin America the blazer is made in brazil least chile that is imported from U.S/Canada/Mexico. The engine es a 2.5L Turbo diesel 132HP (In Argentina few trucks uses petrol)

I left you the technical sheet of the chevy blazer (sorry is in spanish)

I don´t have this stereo any more (now i have a pioneer premier 700bt). It´s the only photo that i have of the interior.

 

Nice looking truck! I wish they had offered the turbo diesel in other markets as well, but it is likely that it would not have met the emissions requirements.

LHD == Left Hand Drive and RHD == Right Hand Drive. You have a LHD truck.

 

Thanks a lot! Ohh, yes! All latin america cars are LHD. I would like GM to offer a good engine as you are

 

I like that alot. The gauges are pretty cool too. Interesting interior though...it looks like they went back to the 95-97ish flip switches instead of the push buttons on my 2000.

It also looks a little higher up than the <05 blazers...or did they just switch to unibody and get rid of the frame rails? Orrrr can we just not see the frame rails because of the running boards..it still looks taller though [8D]

Edit: Why is his an 05 with new body style...2005 and a half?

 

Welcome to latin america Wolfpack, where GM do what they want!! [sm=smiley19.gif][sm=smiley21.gif]
My chevy blazer is the same old chevy blazer that appears in the photo (the green one, 1997).
The only differences are the engine (turbo diesel 95hp vs turbo diesel intercooler 132hp), the front (hood, bumpers, front lights and grill), the dash and the rear doors.
I don´t understand what is the unibody and the frame rails.

 

Same frame, just different bodywork. This was a body style unique to South America.
