New Guy in Tallahassee
I finally picked up a 1972 Chevrolet Blazer in great running condition. It has a 350 under the hood with a Holly 4 barrel carb and 5 speed manual transmission. 1st gear is a "granny gear", which is an extremely low gear that is used for hauling and off-roading. Therefore, it is usually better to start in 2nd. The whole floor, bed walls and roll bars have been Rhino lined (spray-on bed liner) for protection against rust among other reasons. The 4-wheel drive works great with locking hubs and a stick-shift operator next to the transmission stick shift. The Blazer has had (I think about) a 4" lift. It has very nice chrome 17" wheels with 35" BFG all-terrains. The CD player and speakers are new and work great as well. The odometer only has 5 digits, so its reading is pretty pointless. This truck does NOT have a top and the driver's side door has been altered to make sure it opened and closed correctly. I don't think there is a really good fix for the door's look.
