Looking for 69-72 2wd Blazer
I am sure that you guys hear this a lot. But, I figure this would be the best place to ask. Most of the ones I see are already re-done and they want just shy of a new car. I understand they are worth money...but...jeeez oh Pete. I am about ready to go start knocking on Mid-western "old-ladies" doors to find one...haha
Anyways, any help from the "gurus" would be helpful. I am new to this site, by the way <bow> and glad to be a part of such a site... Thanks in advance for any help. Lenny Last edited by Trifelynn; 05-31-2004 at 12:01 PM. |

2wd Blazers are few and far between. You just have to keep your eyes open and watch all the places they might be for sale. This board is a great place to watch as they pop up here every now & then. Also keep an eye on http://www.collectorcartraderonline.com/ & e-bay. Good luck and let us knw when you find one.

IF these Blazers are so rare, and so desirable. then why are they not worth so much more? i see peolpe looking for them, but they sell for reasonable prices. I just got mine for a very good deal, unrestored ofcourse, and i think its one of the newest forms of hotrods out there! just curious

You Have A Good Point, I Always Thought 2wd And 4wd Blazer Were
Harder To Find And Should Command More $$$, But It Is Still In The Eye Of The Beholder, There Are Good Deals Out There, Then There R Those Who Think They R Made Of Gold, Look 4 One In The Middle ![]()

I agree. Production numbers are good to have available.
I wish I could find production numbers for GMC's, I just bought a '70 2wd Jimmy and don't have a clue as to how many were built. Rg

The production figure I gave was for the entire Jimmy Production for the Calendar year.
The % given reflects the amount usually done for the 2wd blazer. These were from the 3rd Edition of the American Light-Duty Trucks. Covers everything from 1896-2000

There is no way they made 121,833 Jimmys in '70. They only made 11,527 Blazers in 1970. Production numbers for the Blazer were much higher than the Jimmy.

Larry, how much are you asking? Is it an original 2wd or a conversion?
