2wd 72 blazer

[crr26@cox.net]

i have been looking around for about 2 months now for 2wd blazer without a lot of luck. i found a 72 blazer factory 4wd converted to 2wd minus motor and tranny for 2000.00 body looks fairly rust free, what do youll think

What are you're plans? If you're going to modify it, there's no reason to spend more for a factory 2wd. If the truck is rust free, or close to it, and fairly complete, it sounds like a good deal. Make sure that it was set up to handle the 2wd transmission (cross members, shift linkages, etc.)

Let us know if you decide to get it.

Sounds like a good starting point for your project depending on how good the tub/windshield are and if it comes w/ a top or not.

Nice truck looks like you got a good start
it does have a top, and it is supposed to be rust free goin look at it in 2 weeks in texas planning road trip all the pics i got so far look good

I'd start with a 4wd. You can either buy a conversion or convert it yourself. I think finding a solid body is more important than the mechanical since you plan to change all of that anyway. A rusty windshield is going to be the hardest part to repair since you'll have to find a donor vehicle.

Here's an article on doing the conversion - http://www.sporttruck.com/techarticl...ion/index.html
