Hey all,

I found a decent '82 model K5 that has a '97 6.5 diesel in it with about 75K on it. The price is reasonable for the shape it's in. I'm just not familiar with the 6.5 motor. When it comes to diesels I've always been a powerstroke guy. It had a tranny rebuild about 1000 miles ago. It has new axles, 3/4 ton in the rear, lift (all springs, no blocks), new drive lines and U joints, new brakes, The blazer is pretty clean inside and out and the price is $3500. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
