I know you got plenty of projects but a restoration project on this would be awesome.
True but at the same time I love the patina
What the new Blazer should’ve been like.
Heck, I wouldn't have been mad if they rebadged the Australian market Colorado Suv
When he was listening off all the different generation blazers he forgot about the brand new generation one I think like 2017+
Body on frame was better than it’s unibody construction successor
Yes
Kyle this is the best video ever, I recommend more videos, I love Chevrolet
New exotic cars are fine, but I really enjoy these types of videos Kyle! Any upgrades planned for this truck?
I'm impressed that you found one in working condition. Not a lot of late 80's Chevy Blazer's around anymore.
I see more 80s square bodies then 1973!1979 models
I have an 85 and we got my wife an 81 last month, we love them.
@@blazerwilliams2260 I've got an 85 as well. Bought it 10 years ago.
You should make a restoration series on this Blazer. I didn't know those wheels were an option. My 90 GMC Suburban has those same wheels.
If this ends up being a restoration/restomod series, it’s a sure thing I’ll be watching every episode.
Wow! An old vehicle review! Haven't seen one of these reviews in a LONG time! Thanks again Kyle! This is awesome!
The K5 Is one of the most common american V8 cars you can find here in Italy 👌🏼
Ford reintroduces the Bronco, it's wildly popular with thousands of preorders. Chevy reintroduces the Blazer and nobody cares, because it's another mediocre SUV and K5 is now a Kia. Huge missed opportunity GM. Shame too, I really like the K5 Blazer. Good work Kyle.
Correction. Is not an SUV is s crossover.
You’re absolutely correct. The new Blazer is easily GM’s biggest blunder and a shameful missed opportunity.
Love it!! Takes me back to the days of my dad and cruising around in his K5 Blazer!!
I like how the service engine soon light was on during the majority of in-cab footage
oh TOTALLY make it into a project!!
Blazers are awesome!
love these square body blazers
One of the last V8. I just love the sound of the engine.
I love seeing that rusty hood go down the road.
I love these old Blazers they're awesome.
“She's a squirrel crushing, deer smacking, driving machine!, Silveradoooo”
I remembered seeing my friend Kaia taking a picture in front of a Blue and White Chevy K5 Blazer and I am not gonna lie, she looked good when taking a picture in front of it
I actually really like that you did this review on this thing in it's current weathered condition. Good stuff as always Kyle 👍👍
At last, I have been waiting for a decade for this video
this is a real blazer although I grew up mostly around mid to late 90's Blazer's which weren't bad either
My family had a 78 then a 86. They were like family members. We loved them. Gas monsters sure, but it was under a dollar a gallon for decades. They were infinitely repairable. We dove the wheels off them. First one got wrecked, the other we drove into dust. I wish I could buy one today. I would get two.
Finally a 1989 k5 blazer depth review
Awesome video Kyle!
if you can review 1991 chevy suburban v1500 with barn doors
I recently bought my dad's old blazer I love it
A truly beauty!
Thank you for this! I've been looking at getting a K5 Blazer to trade for my K10 pickup and this showed everything I was curious about that nobody else seemed to go through!
the patina on you blazer is amazing!
Nice blazer. It definitely needs a lot of work but looks like a solid foundation. My 89 k5 is a Scottsdale and it came with a factory power rear window.
Very nice video!!! Love the square Blazers and Suburbans
Please do a video series with this amazing car! We love to see it!!
good old Saabkyle04 style - thx for video
I love The K5 Blazer
Hi there. Lovely video. I want one K5, but they are hard to find. Thanks for the video. Please, do a series :)
Man I really miss your old video formats...
Alot of us do
That gauge cluster is something else!
Awesome blazer man 👍
Great video.. thank you for taking the time to make this. I second.. third.. fourth.. well whatever position in line agree to a restoration on this one. Before its too late to find quality parts and so forth. Stay safe and be well!
Awesome video Kyle I miss watching you do videos on old cars and trucks like this last time I ever saw you do a video on something this old was back when you did the dealer ship videos I love rewatching them all the time loving the videos great job keep up the good work thumbs up and shared looking forward to more going to finishing catching up on your vids now lol
Thanks Kyle, now I need to buy one.
That is one badass car
Years ago you reviewed the black ‘85 blazer. Ever since I saw that video at 12 years old it’s now my favorite truck and I daily drive a ‘85 m1009 cucv blazer myself
My dad had a truck like this ony a c10 a 76 while with a white and blue bench seat 4 wheel drive 350 v8 never let him down the rust got the best of the truck it was sad to see the truck go many good memories your truck is worth keeping and fixing up even if u don't make a lot of videos on it's worth keeping and fixing up
nice review 😍😍
I would love to see you go through one. Enjoyed the video.
These square body Chevrolet K5 blazers are awesome hopefully it needs cleaning and detailed especially on the inside repaint on the exterior and so on and so forth
One of my bucket list trucks for sure! Getting hard to find ones that aren't beat to death and when you do find a nice one, it wont be cheap.
Great video as always Kyle. One thing I did notice is it sounds like the starter might be hitting the fly wheel slightly. But great video as always I have been a huge fan for quite some time. Ever since your Lexus ES 350
Always nice to see these videos. Is Kyle ever going to do the Start Up, Test Drive & In Depth Review of the Yugo GV?
Wow! The pandemic has really changed you SaabKyle04 !!!!
Cool truck man!
This is my favorite vehicle style (2 door SUV) and regular cab short bed. Those two are my favorites (with patina).
The King Kong V8 (as John Davis referred to it in the '89 K5 Blazer list of hits) sounds amazing! If you can restore it and put a new exhaust system that sounds as good as this worn out system does, that would be so cool! 🤟👏
I also noticed that this is a dual-exhaust unit. Didn't know dual exhausts were also available for trucks at that time, I only knew this for the body-on-frame sedans of the period! That's nuts! Haha! 🤣🤟
I really like this car, seems like it's good for a variety of uses, both on and off the road, and the quad-shock front suspension looks strong, if a bit unloved after all these years.
Great choice, Kyle! Show it the love it deserves! ❤🤟
The exhaust reminds me of that 86 C30 Dually you did a while back.
now this is cool content
heeey miss ya bro .. watching you since long long time from (kuwait)
This was a killer video. Still hoping to get lucky and find one here in hawaii...but the Silverado trim so dope
Now this is a real Chevy blazer
The new Chevy Blazers are real to soooooooo
@@traciweisenbachCITB No... They aren't anything like this Blazer
@@joshuamorehead6124 yes they are soooooooooo
@blackandgold51 yes they are. Yes they are. Yes they are. Yes they are. Yes they are.
@Saint Fifty One Blazers are just as good as the old ones, and so are the TrailBlazers. Chevy is the best!
please do a update video on the 240sx as well
Those are sooooo fucking cool and will last forever and simple to work on!
A diamond in the rough 👍🌹
Cool Video it is Hard to Find a vehicle like this one anymore 👍 but overall the vehicle looks good shape for it's Age.
very beautyful car for restore .
I have a 91 k5 and still looks brand new
Hey Kyle! Here’s something amazing you should do: 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee L. Please do it if you can find one.
New blazer was a cool vintage truck
I have the exact same blazer besides mines a 90 on a lift n is in very good shape
Saabkyle04 you are my favorite youtuber and in your backlot startup videos what year is that black dodge intrepid.
Thanks for the info i just buy on 86 needs like 50 percent restoration.
2:02 start up 2:10 noice 2:38 wow 12:00 drive
Do a build series on this one.
Make it a series! I’ve got an ‘88 K5 Silverado, ‘85 CUCV M1009 (Blazer) and a ‘79 K5 Cheyenne. So yeah……..I’ll be watching lol.
I wanted to see it with the top off!
are you planning to do a review on that 86 c10 despite you not restoring it
I feel you should just preserve this thing, I love the petina.
I'd like a series on this. That being said, I think it's better to finish your other things first.
I hope you do a paint job on this
Man ur k5 blazer would look nice to be restored in light red with white would look nice as crap might get this for first car or something lol
Those old k5 blazers are getting up there in price here (Ohio). That one online is probably pushing close to 5 grand. I’ve had a handful of them. Currently have a 88 that’s slowly getting worked on. 👍
I loved my full sized Blazers. Bought new ones in 74, 77 and 91. It would be great to have one today. Of course they would probably be $75,000. My 74 was loaded the Cheyenne package and almost all options other than air had a sticker of $5700. There weren’t nearly as many options as they have now
Truth. My 85 Silverado came with air conditioning, Power windows and locks, and power rear window. That was luxury back then.
Can you do a Chevy 2002 Express review startup and test drive please?
Awesome beater truck for u just imagine if it had some upgrades done to it 👌👌👌👌👌.
Loved to watch it! I had a K5 Blazer a long time ago. I have a video about it in my channel.
Given the state of the engine ?, a 10-40w or 10-30W for cold climate or 15-40w for a climate that has minimally sustained cold weather and if not a high zinc phosphorus oil, use a additive like ZDDP+(1oz per quart for oil with 800 or less parts per million like premium synthetics for example) for the flat tappet lifters(1200 to 1800 is the goal, 2000 ppm will corrode the bearings).
They don't make em like that no more real basic engineering built to last 💪👌
11:55 check engine light came on hahaha
Would love one of these but I can never find an affordable one anymore.
I see you got a check engine light on Kyle
Yessssss😍 dream
Restoration videos would be great.
How does the manual rear window crank work? Do you twist the handle?
nice
Hi Kyle
Like the Harper's Stranger Things 😂👍
I had an 89 K5 just like this but with a newer Goodwrench engine. That thing was virtually silent. It was weird.
Where did you get the blazer from?
Hey I have a question about an old old video of yours. Specifically the 2004 Audi A4.
If you dont want to do a Restomod on it because of your other projects, you can hold off until next year.
