A true 1 owner 2WD Blazer!

[Rokcrln]

Yep and she still owns it She is 60yrs old and not in great health but loves her blazer. She told me she would think about selling it but not for less than what she has spent on it since 1971 when she ordered it and picked it up ($17,000). She has put over 300,000 miles on the first motor and only about 200 on the rebuilt (same motor just rebuilt, can we say matching #'s) one because that is about the time her health went down hill. It was restored about 9yrs ago and really looks great (for a stocker). It has some cancer she said that was fixed and it all looked good but I did see some small rust stains in the kick panel area but that was about it. Also it is over 100* out right now so I was melting while I was checking it out, I am an overly white boy that does not get along with the sun very well. Any ways just wanted to share some pics with you. I am not interested in buying it but still wanted to check it out for all you guys and for my self!

I have never seen one this stock or this clean. May be I should get it and do a full resto and then try and get my money out of it after

Beautiful survivor!

I would love to get my hands on that one and go to cutting, chopping, and lowering.

That's Maybe not $17k cool; but I hope she gets it!

Well it's not for sale per say that is just what it might take if someone were to offer that up. This is not a for sale thread just a look what I found thread.

That's worth the $17,000 IMO. Full resto and you could probably sell it at Barrett-Jackson for $45,000 .

Nice!! Wouldn't kick that out of bed....or, I mean, the garage.

Interesting pictures. I thought I was about the only one left who ordered a 72 back in 71 and still has it. Mines a Jimmy 4X4. Just for info, you can tell she ordered it, not bought off the lot, by the radio antenna. They didn't put radios in any when they shipped for showroom. It was dealer installed, and you got a telescoping antenna. When you ordered one with the radio you got the one piece stainless antenna. Have posted a couple times before, but it never showed up on the thread. May not be doing something right. New here.

This is going to require pictures!

[crzngmychvy]

Great surviver, never seen one like that.

[old man jimmy]

I've posted a couple times, and they seem to be on the thread. But when I get out of it and go back in. Their's nothing there. Guess I'm doing something wrong, but don't know what. And can't seem to get a message on here to find out what. I Also ordered a 72 in 71 (Jimmy 4X4) and still have mine also. Nice to hear their are so many fans out their of the old beast. New here and still trying to get on.

Hey old man You have made it on and if you have any problems posting a pic or somthing just ask what you problem is and I am sure you will get all the help you need. So is yours a 2WD as well?

Welcome from too sunny California!

NO ONE remakes it (LMC and others have a generic one)

Sorry I have been up to my neck with an unplanned kitchen remodel right before my wife has our son so spare time is very little right now. I did not notice a jack sticker and I have not been back over their since I took these pics. If I get a chance I will take a look and get a few pics if it is their.

Well, I know its not a for sale thread, nor do I have the 17 large to buy it, but that being said. Where else could you invest $17k and know you could get it back out? I know it is pricey, but ask LUV how much GQ cost, and then figure a new resto would be just that cause they are original only once (I know he said it was resto'd 9 years ago, but I am thinking repaint only?) I just think you could spend $17 on a later model whatever and lose $$$$ to depreciation or buy this and appreciate. I need to go get that 2wd I've been eyeballing!! Not anywhere near as nice, but a good place to start from!!

[68GMC454]

man that a nice survior..i would get it restore it,,and drive it,,but you could sell it and get your money out of it to,,for you,,if it was accepted in something like barret jackson,,would get yoru name out and noticed...nice though..

[LUV2XCLR8]

Just realized it was a 2wd (I'm used to seeing them sit alot lower than that)

I'd Luv to have that, it's probably worth alot, I wouldn't give a penny over $10K.
