- Refined & Factory-Rated Muscle: This V1500 is powered by the factory LO5 5.7L (350ci) small-block V8, factory-rated at 210 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired with a Turbo Hydra-Matic 700-R4 (4L60) 4-speed overdrive automatic transmission and a New Process 241 dual-range transfer case, feeding power to GM 10-bolt axles front and rear. Automatic locking hubs, power steering, and power brakes with rear ABS drums round out a proven and capable drivetrain. Recent service includes fresh powertrain fluids, a new radiator, and Bilstein 4600 shocks with a Rough Country steering stabilizer for confident cruising.
- Squarebody Style, Two Tops Included: The body wears its factory-correct Midnight Blue Metallic finish with excellent shine and depth. A factory-color hardtop with tinted sliding quarter windows and an included black Softopper soft top offer year-round flexibility. 15-inch factory Rally wheels are wrapped in newer 33x12.5 Hankook Dynapro AT2 tires. All lighting has been upgraded to LED, including custom-sealed beam low beams by Headlight Experts. The frame has been undercoated in matte black and remains free of major rust or imperfections.
- Refurbished Comfort with Vintage Flair: Inside, this Blazer sports a Dark Blue interior with reupholstered visors, rear armrests, and spare tire cover in navy and white houndstooth—matching the factory Custom Cloth seating. The upper dash pad, metallic trim, carpets, and seatbelts were all replaced under current ownership. A Pioneer head unit with Bluetooth and hands-free calling is paired to Kenwood speakers, and the dome lighting has been upgraded to LED. All systems including A/C, gauges, and power accessories function as intended.
- Provenance & Pedigree: Sold new at Mize Motors Chevrolet in Eden, North Carolina, this Blazer has been in enthusiast collections since 2005. It was acquired by the current owner in 2023 from the Marsh Collection and has since gained national exposure in Macy’s Fall 2024 campaign and Nike’s 2025 promotion with basketball phenom Paige Bueckers. It has logged just over 2,000 miles under current ownership and is offered on a clean New Jersey title.

Features & Specifications
Introduced in 1973, the second-generation Chevrolet K5 Blazer remained in production through 1991, offering full-size SUV comfort with pickup-like utility and legendary 4x4 capability. Though GM officially referred to the design as the “Rounded Line,” fans dubbed it the “Squarebody,” a name that stuck. When GM transitioned to the GMT400 platform in 1987, the 4WD designation changed from “K” to “V”—but since the Blazer retained the older platform until 1991, enthusiasts still refer to these final-year models as K5s. The 1990 V1500 model represents the best of both worlds: late-model features with classic squarebody appeal.
With its factory-rated 5.7L V8, classic squarebody design, removable dual-top setup, tasteful refurbishment, and pop culture credentials, this 1990 Chevrolet K5 Blazer V1500 stands out in today’s collector SUV market. Whether you’re a squarebody enthusiast, a casual collector, or looking for a cool, capable vintage rig for weekend drives and local shows, this Blazer checks every box. Don’t miss your chance to own an iconic piece of Chevrolet 4x4 history—upgraded where it counts, preserved where it matters.
