View ReportThis 1987 Chevrolet K5 Blazer Silverado 4×4 is a fully reengineered, modernized restomod with approximately 3,800 miles on the build, finished after a complete teardown and full mechanical, exterior, and interior refurbishment. Powered by a GM Performance LS 376/525 paired with a 6L80E automatic transmission and supported by upgraded suspension, steering, braking, and driveline components, it delivers contemporary performance with classic K5 character. The private seller in Sandy Springs, Georgia, commissioned a comprehensive rebuild using new or refreshed components throughout, resulting in a turnkey 4×4 ideal for daily usability, off-road adventure, or premium collection.
- Chevy Off-Road Heritage: The second-generation K5 Blazer earned its reputation for durability, simple construction, and capability, lasting from 1973 through 1991. Its short-wheelbase layout, body-on-frame design, and rugged drivetrain made it one of the go-to 4×4 platforms for off-road travel and restomod builds.
- Modern LS Power: The GM Performance LS 376/525 V8 and 6L80E automatic transmission deliver far more power, smoother operation, and improved reliability than the original drivetrain. Supporting upgrades include a Holley Lo-Ram intake, an Airaid intake system, dual Flowmaster-equipped exhaust, tuned GM ECM, and dual electric radiator fans.
- Upgraded Exterior Hardware: The custom two-tone wrap pairs with new OEM-style bumpers and mirrors, a Hickey bull bar, KC Gravity LED fogs, LED Holley lighting, and a new windshield. Suspension and steering improvements include Fox Performance Elite reservoir shocks, ORD components, a Borgeson steering box, Reid knuckles, and refreshed tie rods and ball joints.
- Refined Interior Cabin: The Dove Gray factory-style interior was restored and upgraded with Katzkin leather seating, Merrick’s Garage brackets, and comprehensive sound deadening. Comfort and tech upgrades include Dakota Digital RTX gauges, a RetroSound head unit, Focal Flax speakers, a JL amplifier, a JL 10-inch sub, and a leather-wrapped original wheel.
- Clean Ownership History: The seller acquired the Blazer out of Oklahoma and executed a full rebuild using new or refreshed components throughout. It carries a clean title, shows approximately 3,800 miles on the build, includes recent service records in 2025, and the seller reports no known mechanical issues.
This Blazer stands out for its comprehensive, all-systems rebuild that prioritizes reliability, drive quality, and modern performance while retaining the classic styling that makes the square-body K5 so desirable. The combination of LS power, Fox suspension, Wilwood braking, updated steering, and a refreshed driveline makes it highly capable on and off pavement. The interior upgrades add long-haul comfort, while the exterior hardware, lighting, wheels, and tires give it a refined but functional presence. Combined with its clean title history and low miles on the build, it represents a premium, turnkey restomod for buyers seeking a classic 4×4 with modern usability.
