1985 K5 Blazer -- full convertible conversion!
383 Stroker Motor by Blueprint (Complete documentation available -- BP38313CT1 SN-303198)
Holley 750 double pumper
700R4 transmission by Monster (Complete documentation available)
Custom stereo system with hidden head unit
Flowmaster exhaust
Dual battery setup with Hellroaring solid-state isolator combiner
Off road designs tube doors

Turn heads in town or on the beach with this throwback truck.

There are still some project items left to do -- listed below so there should be no surprises at the point of sale.

I have a clean title that is in Texas, in my name. I purchased this truck 3 years ago and enjoyed working on it and then using it. Family situation has changed and I have sold the toys I used this truck for (jet ski, dirt bike) and now it is time for the truck to go as well.

Truck starts, sounds and runs great. Paint is in good but not perfect condition. Some brown specs on front chrome bumper (picture below). Scratch on tailgate (picture below). Softtop is in good condition -- some cloudiness in the clear sections consistent with any top in this area of this age.

I do still have the original doors and they are included in the sale. They install with no additional modification as the tube doors use the factory mounts/latch.

Project items left / Opportunities:
Gear indicator does not work
Speed indicates ~6 mph higher than actual
Passenger seatbelt female receiver strap is short (hard to access)
Interior panels
The switch panel is loose in the DIN spot - currently velcroed in place
No rear seats
Heater/AC fan runs whenever the key is on
Hitch needs installed (Hitch and all parts included with sale)

Let me know any questions you may have or if you want additional pictures of anything via text.

Is the roll bar just bolted in or welded? Are the full doors cut down for full vert? Assuming no hardtop? Will hard top fit properly? How about rust? Hows underside?

Roll bar is bolted in and it is setup in 2 sections. There is 3x1 rectangular thick wall tube that goes from the firewall to the shelf in the cab of the truck. That prevents sag/flex with the B pillars and roof removed. The 2nd piece Is 2" round and it is also bolted in. The rectangular tube can be seen in the pictures of the kick pannel speakers. The bolt in plate for the round roll bar can be seen in the pictures with the wakeboard speaker cans.

Doors are not cut - they are in original configuration.

Correct, no hardtop -- Will it fit properly.....I'm sure that you could convert this back to a hard top or use the shell from another truck if you wanted to.

Underside is treated with bedliner -- There are no rust spots to report.

There is some surface rust that you can see as an example on the steering column or on the front stabalizers / front diff cover.

Let me know if you want any additional information!

Definitely a motivated seller.

Thanks,
Anthony
 
I would be very curious to hear if you get that for it- then I could stand to make a pretty penny on my 85 full convertible!
Good luck with the sale.. its a sweet ride!
