Wonder why they wouldn't put the vin number in the add.

Sweet looking 2wd though.

Very nice, a few things I might have done differently, but still very cool :metal:

Do tell! What would you do different?

This is pretty much what I would want if I were able to buy a 2wd right now. Maybe you're seein' somethin' I'm not...

Rear panels would look better than the open look w/ the speaker pods

Exhaust is awefull close to those air ride tanks (I used to do exhaust)

I would have a set of regular buckets and a console in it, although
the utility buckets are very cool, but I am taller than most people

Of course these are just my personal opinions expressed willingly :lol:

It's back!! I guess it didn't sell it when it was on Collect Car Trader. He was asking $30k then.... Hmmmmm I'm going to guess a $25k reserve. Any other guesses?

bouncytruck 06-15-2006 09:39 PM

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
Rear panels would be nicer. I know nothin' about air tanks & exhaust so I'll have to take your word that it isn't an optimum set up.

I like the utility buckets, but I'd rather have the regular buckets too.

It sure is the same one, I remember it from when I was looking for mine and the only major thing that I didn't like about it... no AC. :hm: I guess that doesn't really matter since there is no mention of a top. :lol:

Oh and I would like to have it too!!

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
Did anyone notice that in the description it listed the exterior color as red.
In the ask seller a question he said it had a top but it was white.

Hey Frenchblue, I heard that this Blazer has a very slight blue tint to the paint. Any truth to that rumor as I have not seen this beauty in person?

bouncytruck 06-18-2006 09:16 PM

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
Hum, blue tint like yours?

Supposedly, a lot more subtle then mine...

Here is where the rumor came from:

The PO of my Blazer said that he was at a show with my Blazer and guy came up and asked him what paint color it was because he had a 2wd 1970 he was working on. They kept talking and the PO of my Blazer decided he didn't want to tell him the name of the paint for fear they guy was going to copy it. Personally, I wouldn't have cared and would of the told the guy where it came from (PO told me it was a BMW color).

I thought it was a interesting little story the PO told me and I was curious to see if there might be any truth to it.

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
They do look very similar.

Tell ya what, buy that one for sale and give it to me and then we can compare the colors side-by-side :)

By the way, I tried hard to convince my wife I needed that truck for fathers day, by she brought up something about not being able to afford it, yada, yada, yada...

I hate it when they start being logical!!

Wow, it's up to $23K with about 6 days left. What is your reserve estimate?

I love the engine bay... very clean. I like the valve covers. The rear side panels would have finished the interior.

What's with the toy chest behind the rear seat?

I believe it is a sub enclosure.

I would have bought that thing 25k if he would have taken that. It was much more than that before, if I remember right. That real close to what I want mine to be.

As far as I could telll there was no blue tint to the paint???

I have that business card pictured on the sub box if anyone wants the info.

I think he was asking in the $32K range. If I had the $, I'd buy it in a heart beat!

That truck is very nice, but the interior just looks unfinished. It looks more unfinished than a CST from the factory.

bouncytruck 06-19-2006 11:47 PM

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
Its not a CST. It doesn't look like it has the brackets for the rear side panels. Of course, it would like better with them.

Thanks Frenchblue, straight up silver is fine with me.... My DD and the wife's car are silver.

I'm pretty sure he was asking $30,000 when it was on Collector Car Trader. Ebay is up to $27,550 with 4 days left. My new reserve guess is $30K. :)

Tynee 06-20-2006 10:54 PM

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
I'm in with a $28k reserve guess, but I haven't looked at the auction. I just guessed for fun.

Odd choice to customize the truck as much as he di, but not cut the dash for a stereo.

bouncytruck 06-20-2006 11:35 PM

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
I thought I remembered him asking $32,995 on collector car. I'm guessing $30K reserve too.

Cut the dash? Not on a 70 2wd, personally I think it is just right. I have a friend who has been trying to get me to cut my dash - he doesn't understand why I think that is a bad idea. Maybe is it just me?

It's not just you... I like the mix of old school looking radio in a classic with a lot of new school parts.

$31.2K RESERVE STILL NOT MET :eek:

bouncytruck 06-21-2006 04:16 PM

Re: does this belong to anyone on the board?
 
Schinkies! There is another nice one on CollectorCarTraderOnline.com for $20K and the green/gold one in portland has dropped to $18,500.
