Anyone who knows 80s cars knows Chevy never made a convertible S10 Blazer, so this is a custom job, but it does look like it was meant to be. The V8 swap solves the extreme slowness problem these had, but we worry that the lack of a proper top means you’re screwed if you take more than one friend with you and it starts to rain.
Underneath it all, this is a 70K mile Blazer with what sounds like a nice SBC build and proper dual exhaust. Air conditioning was removed at the time of the swap, so that might limit appeal in some climates; but only a tonneau cover is included; so we don’t think AC would help much, anyway. This is also a RWD version, which limits appeal in other climates. So…this is a completely impractical little SUV, but we’re still oddly drawn to it.

This looks almost stock.
Front is, well, pretty much just an S10 Blazer
The rear seems to be well trimmed out and the seat is still present.
350 has replaced what was likely a 2.8 V6 and a total dog. While not a Typhoon, this could be a lot of fun.
As far as we can tell, the only top included in the sale is this tonneau cover.
