and then there were 2
OK, so I have the 67. I was looking for parts for it when I come across a 71 with a good bed. so I buy it. Got it home, and decided to rebuild them both. well at least I will have a parts hauler for both rebuilds

Re: and then there were 2
I sold mine to buy another. But I bought a sports car to replace the street truck too.

Re: and then there were 2
I did this when I had my`71 Blazer with a 3spd,lifted,37s,etc.I bought a`72 to get the complete automatic change-over.I drove it home,washed it up and realized it was too nice(from New Mexico originally)with alot of cool off road/desert accessories from back then,original paint,real solid...I started ordering parts for it so I could have another style of Blazer.I bought another `70 CST for the change-over and decided it had the best options,so I did an original resto on that.I still needed a better trans for the first one.So,I found a 4spd/NP205 set-up without a truck so I wouldn`t end up with another and had the rest of the change-over from the 3spd.My logic of buying a complete Blazer to get all the parts just didn`t work.I got to be known as the guy with three nice(different)Blazers.I never did get a`69 to complete the set.

Re: and then there were 2
well, I started to dissasemble my "new" 71 today, and my wife came out, sat in the drivers seat. she came over and looked at me, and claimed it. she said she loves it.
