Chevy Blazer vs. Ford Bronco

I remember my Grand Cherokee from the mid 2000's, pulling out of my driveway, got hit by a bicyclist on the sidewalk. He grumbled about being late, picked up his bike and rode off, I had $1500 worth of damage. Last Jeep I've owned.

This 1972 Chevy K5 Blazer Just Sold For An Eye Popping $115k

The Chevy K5 Blazer has slowly morphed from an affordable, reliable off-roader for enthusiasts into one of the most sought-after vintage vehicles around. As such, a nicely restored or tastefully modified Chevy K5 Blazer can easily fetch six figures at a classic vehicle auction these days – just take this one that recently sold on Bring-A-Trailer for example.

This modded 1972 Chevy K5 Blazer attracted an astonishing $115,000 USD worth of bids before the auction ended Monday night, which is a significant sum for any vehicle, let alone a modest Chevy SUV like the Blazer.

That said, this is no ordinary Chevy K5 Blazer. The truck underwent a complete frame-off restoration in 2019 that included media blasting and powder coating the frame and stripping and refinishing the body in a shade of Harley Davidson Vivid Black. The builders, Berkeley Garage in Denver, also fitted a four-inch suspension lift, Warn manual front lockers, 35 inch BFGoodrich tires and modern-day Wilwood front disc brakes at this time.
