It's more then I would be willing to take on but I think it will be a good project.
My nephew has his off of the frame and is working on it.

Here is what is left of the Blazer other than a pile of tin. My son, armed with a torch, axe and sawzall attacked it on New Year's Day.

Looks like the Tazmanian Devil got after it...

How's that windshield frame? Could be interested depending on price.
I could be looking for front springs and hangers soon too.

Rod,

The one on this Blazer is not good but I have another windshield that is good.

It has some minor damage from someone pulling the visor but otherwise a pretty easy fix. It is still attached to the dash so it could be cut where ever
would suit you. If you are interested I can take pics to send you.

I am not sure what it is worth but I will be very reasonable on the price.

Do you have another blazer your going to restore, or did you buy the blazer to sell the frame?? Love the tow truck!!

I kind of rescued the frame. The Blazer was going to the scrap yard if I did not pick it up. There are always some good parts even on a wreck like the Blazer was and it is a fun thing to do.

The tow truck looks better than what it is. The cab has some very bad rust in the roof and in the pillars. It is a very good tow truck though. It has a 350 with a TH 400 mated to the NP 205. We are getting things lined up to replace the cab this summer with the blue one that we recently pulled off of my son's truck. We will be lost without it while it is being worked on!
