Finally found a 72 2wd CST Blazer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

tuckerracing · 03-04-2011, 12:31 PM

I finally found a 1972 CST 2wd Blazer with factory air. I have always wanted this body style blazer and finally found one at the right price. I am heading out saturday morning for a 5 hour one-way trip to pick it up. I will get some pics up when I get it loaded and headed home. This one will be started on as soon as I finish my sons 77 2wd Blazer (maybe sooner).

Better yet, do build threads for both your son's and your Blazers. Twice as cool!

Well that's my old Blazer. Glad to see it go to someone who will bring it back to life. Here is a little history on your new Blazer. A friend of mine purchased it as a parts Blazer. I bought in the hope of restoring it. I bought it back in 95-96 some time and sold it to crr26@cox.net a year or two ago.
Here are before and after pictures. The front clip came off a 72 parts truck I had. If you would like anymore information on it. Let me know. I actually drove it around the block not long after I put it back together.

Nicely optioned truck there, AC, tach, AM/FM radio. Looks like it had a rough start but has been getting better over the years of sitting. Looking forward to hearing more and watching the LS swap.

Keep that top on while you redo the rockers!

Have fun!

Will do, I need the hardware to hold the top to the windshield frame. The blazer only came with one side.

I also started a build thread for this blazer.

Sweet blaze! Looks alot like mine except mine had parchment trim. What are youre plans for the burb in the background?

tuckerracing · 03-11-2011, 08:33 PM

Was going to send it to Frizzle Fry to do the metal work to make it a 115" wheelbase 3 door tahoe. But right now it is on hold since I bought this blazer to work on. I have been tempted to part it out or just put it up for sale.

1956cameo · 03-13-2011, 09:47 AM

Sounds good! I had to ask, I have a green 72 suburban but I always wanted a red or blue one. My wife would kill me if I bought anything else anyways. Good luck with the blazer build. I hope it doesn't need as much metal work as mine!
