    Yes, that's my 1973 Full convertible, 2-wheel drive K5 Blazer. GM only built 3,300 2-wheel drive models, so it's very rare 34 years later. Contrast that to over 40,000 4 wheel drive models for 1973. I've owned both for 1973 and also owned a 1969 Blazer, so I'm kind of a fan of Full Convertible Blazers.

    I had a fender/bender with it last fall so it's down for repair right now. Thinking about installing a one piece tilt front end and a Big Block Chevy in it, thath way I could race Mike Pennington and his 67 Nova


    1973 Chevrolet K5 Blazer 2-Wheel Drive
    • 350 engine bored .30 over and balanced
    • Competition Cam - High Energy 268H
    • Turbo 350 with a B&M Stage 2 Shift Kit
    • Lowered
    The made just little over 3000 2-wheel drive, Full convertible models in 1973, so it's fairly rare, (actually very rare)

    I never put the top on, if it rains I just cover it with a tarp.


    Actually been thinking about turning this and our 1959 Cadillacs into Donks.

    Outstanding write-up, Mike! This deserves to be bumped up to be read by a new audience.

    Now it's been 8 years and so much has changed since the products we had back then to buff out cars.
