The Chevrolet K5 Blazer has long stood as one of the most iconic early American SUVs, and this 1970 example has been transformed into a striking custom RestoMod that seamlessly blends vintage character with modern performance. Finished in deep dark green custom paint, it retains the unmistakable square-body styling of the original while sitting with a far more aggressive and refined stance thanks to a thoughtfully upgraded suspension setup.
Power comes from a second-generation Chevrolet SSR drivetrain, featuring a 6.0L LS2 V8 installed in 2023. Paired with an SSR-sourced 6-speed manual gearbox, this Blazer delivers modern horsepower with the engaging feel of a true driver's SUV. The lowered suspension with QA1 rear coilovers, combined with four-wheel disc brakes, dramatically improves handling and stopping power over stock configuration.
The exterior is further enhanced by staggered, powder-coated SSR wheels that complement the dark green finish and give the truck a confident, road-focused presence. A Legacy ragtop sunroof adds open-air versatility, offering a convertible-like driving experience while preserving the classic removable-top Blazer spirit. The result is a build that feels both nostalgic and contemporary.
Inside, the cabin has been fully reimagined with a tan leather interior featuring heated and ventilated bucket seats for modern comfort. Amenities such as Vintage Air conditioning, power windows, Dakota Digital gauges, and an Alpine touchscreen stereo provide everyday usability while maintaining a clean, cohesive design.
With just 2,089 miles recorded since completion of the restoration, this custom 1970 Blazer represents a fresh and carefully executed build. It combines the timeless styling of an early K5 with the reliability, power, and comfort of a modern drivetrain, creating a unique SUV equally suited for shows, cruising, or spirited weekend drives.

About Garage Kept Motors
Garage Kept Motors, LLC specializes in classic and specialty online auto sales.
For our consignors, we are the only auto brokers that offer a Transparent Sale Disclosure. This means, when a car sells, we provide an exact copy of the Bill of Sale. We do this so our clients know exactly who bought their car, where it went, and most importantly how much we sold it for. No funny business.
For our buyers, our vehicles are listed on the Internet, with over 100 photos, including undercarriage pictures, and walk-around videos of the vehicles running plus a narrative-style write-up of the cars history and features. Our international exposure allows us to sell cars across the globe, and we sell a majority of them out of state and overseas. We deliver honesty and consistency in our photos, so buyers, both near and far, can invest with confidence sight unseen though we do recommend to check the vehicle out in person or have a PPI (pre-purchase inspection) done. We are not a gallery. Vehicles can be seen locally by appointment as potential buyers are given our undivided attention.
