Re: tell boat what you think.
i went and stopped and looked today and snapped a couple quick ones.nobody answered so i don't know much.it's got power windows and locks and an a/c control.the inside is a total mess it really turned me off.the body is primered in such away that it look's like it was applied to hide something.it just wasn't the look of ready to put on paint type primer.although on quick inspection it looked solid.the hood and doors didn't fit.the wing window frame's are rusted bad.the bed wood is bad.and full of plug wires.a new rotor cap sat on the seat,kinda like they were trying to make it run.as iv'e noticed it hasn't moved in along time.tires were bald.it looked alot better at 15 mph.and look's better in these pic's than in person.all in all about a $750.00 truck.i just didn't get a feel good feeling about it.i'm gonna watch it and if it's still around in time maybe i'll lowball him.anyway,here's the pic's.oh,the blazer across the street was *****in though.

Re: tell boat what you think.
Is that 10" rims on the rear?
I would sit back and wait a while. Maybe ask him if you could test drive it.

Re: tell boat what you think.
I'd wait a little while and lowball on that one also if it were me. They likely did primer it to try to hide some kind of damage, but unfortunately the damage they were trying to conceal usually doesn't show up until after you buy it. At least that how it usually works for me.
I see what you mean about trying to figure out what year it is by the grille. It has an 81 or 82 front bumper on it which doesn't help, but you could take a quick peek and see where the wiper switch is located. If it's on the dash it's an 81-83 and if it's on the turn signal stalk it's an 84-87. At least it would narrow it down a bit. ...Joe

Re: tell boat what you think.
Not a bad looking truck for the money. It is valued at what it is it sounds like to me. Might be worth a test drive for the heck of it. How solid was the underside???

Re: tell boat what you think.
I thought you were referring to his avatar!
I could be wrong, but from here, it looked like the "Blazer" across the street says "GMC" on the rear panel. Which would make it a Jimmy. Stepside is nice looking, but... needs a little foosification!!! It amazes me that in WA, at the end of December, the trees can be bare but the grass be green. I miss it!

Re: tell boat what you think.
