Chevy Blazer (Bonanza Edition) That looks like a South american one
| Close, but whatever this is taking too long. hahaha It's just called the Bonanza. It is the South American version of the K5 Blazer sold from about 1985 to the mid 1990s. Really weird. Brazil/Argentina have always had weird relatives to our vehicles- they made the original Ford Falcon up unto maybe the early 90s for instance, with just minor interior changes and updated front/rear styling, modern bumpers, etc. The Ford trucks were just the 67-72 models with square stacked headlights and called the F-1000 up until around 1990, until a 87-91 style F-series was sold. Before all this, the 57-60 Ford trucks were sold well into the 1970s as new, just with different square headlamps. The original Chevy C-10 was sold from the 60s to the 80s down there. I think it used a 63-66 dashboard, but all the other sheetmetal was different. They sold a Suburban-type vehicle as well, called a Veraneio. In the 80s these trucks were replaced with the D-10/D-20, as well as a Bonanza (like a Blazer) and a new Veraneio. They were derived from the 73-87 Chevy trucks. The sheetmetal was different from the american trucks save for the tops of the windows, around the windshield, and the metal dashboard area. Everything else was more slab-sided and third-world looking. They used 4.0L diesel engines, some ran on alcohol, and some gas. The Veraneio resembled a Suburban in the tops of the doors and stuff but that's about it. Really strange. I don't know what the underpinnings/frame were like but as you can see they used 6-lug wheels and I think they may have used solid front axles for 4wd applications. But I did see a pic of one flipped over and it had IFS...I don't know if these used Isuzu frames or what. These were made into the mid 1990s with minor updates to the dash and headlights, etc. The pic I posted is of a 91-92 truck. The roof isn't removable but it seems they did make some trucks where it was. As you can see, the dash is like a 73-91 truck, but the dash pad is different over on the passenger side, it uses different gauges in the cluster, the glovebox door in the metal dash is different (in a different truck I saw the dash at a different angle), the door handles are tiny and in a different spot. The windows are the same. Later years they changed the dashboard a little bit. Weird huh? Bizarro Blazer! Here's some other stuff:
