Hey all I have wanted a blazer/jimmy for years but hadnt found one that I could afford as a project. Well I looked at one today but as expected the body is pretty rough. I have redone my 68 pickup but dont know much about these beasts.
The rust is the bottom of the doors, and rockers. the front of the floor doesnt look bad but the "tub" around the wheel wells and the wheel arches (outside) are eatten up pretty bad.
Now it has the double wall hard top and soft top. CST, front original buckets (rough) and console and original rear seat. No other options to speak of.

anyway it is a 72 4x4
Thanks
Dave
