I sent my dad an email, and I'll post the pics as soon as I get them. His truck is SICK.

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

I'm gonna drive the crap out of it! (As carefully as possible of course)

I'm also gonna lower it with all my suspension parts from my 78 chevy truck. (no cutting though)

Good for you thats excatlly what i'd do with it that's a very nice ride and it should be driven to shows so people can see and enjoy her.

She has been inside far to long.

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

Well, you know what I'm going to say... keep it original! :hm: :)

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

Geeeeeez --- i have got to start looking harder for my trucks. I would say that is a very solid buy for 6500, especially considering the mileage and the fact that its a 2wd. If i saw one like that i would run to the bank quick

I tend to spend way more in the end when i start out with a rougher truck ---

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

Incredible. A 30 year old truck in prestine condition with only 40k miles for a mere $6500. :crazy: :crazy:

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!

straight 6 that will last forever from what ive seen in cars

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

Very Nice!!!!!

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

I would have this same problem... think I would have to put a small block in it.... I dont know though... :)

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

The guy I bought the truck from told me I could get good money for the straight 6 since it has such low miles. I'm sure I'll eventually break down and put a 454 in it, but for now, the gas mileage is nice.

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

Something to think about... you probably have equity in your truck. 6500 is an amazing price for what looks to be a great survivor truck in original condition. The only things hurting its value are the 6 cylinder and the color scheme, which may be tough sells. Keep it original and advertise well and you might see 10k for it... really this is just an argument against modding ;)

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

I completely agree.

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

please dont mod that blazer.. if you did it would be a shame.. :whine:

just buy a used high mile one, and mod the hell outta that one..

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

I agree w/ km454, if your looking for one to mod then sell yours and buy another (or two) and have enough to pay for your mods

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

This guy would know --- check out his truck pics in his sig. if you get the chance

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

If you decide to get rid of that 6 let me kmow I'm right down the road. Nice Blazer!

Re: I just bought a '78 Chevy Blazer with 40K Original Miles!!!
 

Beautiful ride! I also like the idea that it is a 6 banger!

Very Nice score!
