Could have bought a Ford. But I like a truck that runs.
The Blazer was born as a direct response to the wildly popular Bronco. Both vehicles embodied a brilliantly simple concept: a short wheelbase, a design you could sketch with a ruler, a removable roof that turns every summer drive into a confetti cannon of fun, and four-wheel drive capable of turning Mount Everest into a molehill.
Under the hood was an eight-cylinder engine with a displacement equivalent to almost six milk cartons. True to American standards, this engine didn’t have to work too hard. With 165 horsepower, merging onto the drive-thru at McDonald’s was no problem, but rushing down the Autobahn? Probably not its strong suit.
In 2016, this Blazer underwent a complete restoration, emerging more stunning than a Montana sunset. It received new paint, a full technical overhaul, and a motor upgraded with Edelbrock goodies. Think valve covers and a carburetor that not only perform better but look like they came straight out of a Hot Wheels dream. Considering the fuel consumption brought tears to the previous owner's eyes, they decided to install an LPG system as a solution.
The result? A machine in peak condition, ready for any adventure. No buttons, no screens—just you, an engine, and an endless horizon. This is what driving was always meant to be.
See you soon?
