Chevrolet K5 Blazer - 2nd Gen (1973 to 1991)

The second generation of Chevrolet K5 Blazer was introduced for the 1973 model year. This new generation of K5 Blazer saw large updates to the model, both mechanically and stylistically. Athough the model had been produced exclusively as a convertible shortbed pickup fitted with a hardtop, from 1976 onwards, the K5 Blazer featured a half-cab design implemented in part to increase safety. As the second generation was in production for nineteen years, a wide range of gasoline engines were available, including inline six and V8 units; a 6.2L diesel V8 was also offered. Production of the second generation Blazer lasted until 1991, when it was replaced by the Third Generation Chevrolet Blazer.
