Ok so Sold the 86 C30 last night and want to replace it with A Blazer K5 85-92 or a bronco 85-95 5.0 or 5.8
Opinions on these or 89 and up ext cab chevy truck

I have owned all 3 and never had problems with either that wasnt standard wear and tear

Just curious what others think
 


Thats the direction im leaning but i do like the bronco's aswell

theres a ton on cl from 600-2500 witch is my price range at the moment
of both k5's and broncos

and both have the same sorta issues so i guess it comes down to what kinda deal i can make
 


K5 with the BIG BLOCK or Eddie Baur Bronco with the 351, either one can be tasty if done right. :th_thumbsup-wink:
 
I am a chevy fan... got a 69 c10 all studded out like a hot rod..... and I have a 67 K5 blazer..... the c10 has a 350 bored out .30 over.... and the K5 came with a small block 400 that had cracked heads and the original 350 that was in it with a blown piston.... I did the easy task of putting new heads on the 400 and she runs great... I vote K5, but then again I am bias.
 


Im gm bias to but not overly so that it would force me to pass up a clean bronco

I own fords and gm's and they both have there own problems but I truly think done right both can be insane trucks
gas wise broncos are like 10 city 16 highway
and k5's are around the same or a little less

then there the ugly but still beastly RamCharger But I have never been a dodge fan at all

yea my 69 c10 is a long bed.... it was my g-pa's and was sitting in his garage ever since I could remember... it was clean.. no rust except some minor paint bubble on the quarters.... he had done some work to the motor... had headers and little inch duals on it... straight pipes.. load as ever.... its a long bed with the camper special package including air conditioning... yea thats right 69 with airconditioning... it will freeze your a$$ right outa that truck too, if you aint careful.... its a nice ride... I love the dual sadle tanks I can nearly drive to ames and back without having to fill up... just sucks when I do fill up... two 40 gallon tanks... expensive!!!
 


Well looks like its going to be a 89 ford Bronco lifted on 35's with a 351 under the hood
good price lots of new parts
just needs paint but That doesnt really matter considering its a 4x4
 
Never mind guy agrreed to bring it to my buddys shop Big mistake on his part I found so much work that needed to be done it wasnt funny if he lowers the price i may still get it
 
Im heading out to sacramento to pick up a 92 chevy 1500 with 175k on it for a 1500 Ill talk him down to a grand easy

I want a 4x4 but I like the c1500's Ill have pics and condition posted later today
