Check out this 2 wheel Blazer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

lazygaurd · 08-22-2005, 10:32 PM

Just bought this beauty, like the nice shade of green?? Its been sitting since 1984, original 72 2 wheel CST(factory color was ochre). Originally I was going to part it but after checking it out further I think I will go ahead and try to save it. Darren (classic chev)will post the pics later tonight.
thanks in advance

classicchev · 08-22-2005, 11:42 PM

Looks like a good one, remember I still have all those parts from the last 2wd Jimmy that you like to buy back, this time make sure you finish what you start.

I thought you said it was in mint condition, its in mint green condition

AND THE BEAUTY ONE OF ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

classicchev · 08-22-2005, 11:46 PM

YOU HAVE to keep the escape hatch in the top. that is going to be a great pic as the starting point of your project!!!!!!!!!!!!

Musclerodz · 08-23-2005, 12:13 AM

Has it been converted to a 2WD? Just wanting to know why it has a K5 emblem on it.

Mike

lazygaurd · 08-23-2005, 12:29 AM

All Blazers had the K/5 emblem, 2 or 4 wheel, I think because it wasn't worth changing the emblem for such a limited production #. I have the vin # and it is correct.

If you change your mind and want to sell it I'm very interested as I'm sure are many others.

How much do you want for it??

lazygaurd · 08-23-2005, 12:42 AM

But who knows, in the winter things slow down for me and thats when I usually end up selling off stuff I would rather keep.

Thats when he is at his weakest, if you can wait Im sure youll get a great deal on it.. One good thing, the longer you wait the more new parts you get.

Just kiddin, Darren

Make sure you keep those valve covers, they are classic,.

Musclerodz · 08-23-2005, 02:18 AM

Now I can say I learned something today. Even though it makes no sense to me.

Musclerodz - it is a bit confusing. All of the 67-72 pickups are listed as C10 and C20 regardless of whether they are four wheel drive. And of course no factory 1 ton 4x4's until the late 70's.

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-24-2005, 06:17 PM

Man oh Man are you lucky, I'd never find anything like that around here

classicchev · 08-24-2005, 11:48 PM

Must not had to mow any lawns today. Looking good. Darren

hotrodhomi · 08-25-2005, 12:03 AM

not bad. what a find.

Pop's72 · 08-25-2005, 03:14 AM

Looks good!

The ochre is trying to make a come back... help it out

72402 · 08-26-2005, 11:55 PM

Man, how many quarters did you put in that car wash?

lazygaurd · 08-27-2005, 12:06 AM

I think it was about 20 quarters at the car wash to get rid of the scum and dead animals I didn't want on my driveway then another 1/2 hour of 3000psi in my yard. looks a bit better now.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 08-27-2005, 12:54 PM

Looks like a great score keep us posted on the progress...

**Canadian694x4** · 08-28-2005, 06:31 PM

Great Score!

Very cool find.This wasn't from the interior of B.C. was it?I've heard some rumours (note Cdn. spelling!) of a forgotten in field 2wd in the Okanagan.Cool personalized plate too; must have been one of the first issued.I agree with keep the valve covers but please ditch the pseudo-wire wheels Appliance came up with in the 80's.Great find...
