Wish me luck on this....... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Went to a friend's Family Barn Dance and found this little gem..... I hope I the owner calls back with some good news. Been looking for a good Blazer for a long time.... looks to be in pretty good shape for sitting for a long time. I'll try to keep you guys posted. Looks to be all there except motor, trans, and hood. Anyway, thought I would share.

Update: Went and talked to the gentleman. He had everything to make it complete. Hood, Engine, Tranny, etc. He told us to give him a few weeks, but told us, around $500. Definitely pumped up to hear back from him. We got a chance to look it over real good. A little rust in the rockers, rocker boxes are solid, no rust in winshield or quarters, surface rust on things, but nothing major.
Options: Posi Trac rear, 350, auto, backseat, and those things called TOW HOOKS are still underneath that massive front bumper. Wish me luck. Trevor

Nice Quarters

**71blksuper4x4** · 11-13-2005, 10:26 PM

The Drivers side

**71blksuper4x4** · 11-13-2005, 10:28 PM

The Rear End

**71blksuper4x4** · 11-13-2005, 10:30 PM

Front seats

**71blksuper4x4** · 11-13-2005, 10:32 PM

Rear Seat.... can someone tell me if this is a double or single top????

matthufham · 11-13-2005, 10:35 PM

i like what i see!

krue · 11-13-2005, 10:42 PM

Does it have lights in the top? If so it's a single wall.

bouncytruck · 11-13-2005, 11:14 PM

Looks like the body is in good shape. Might be an 80's resto/modification job with that funky red stripe. The top looks like a double wall to me because I can't see the bolts sticking up above the bed rail.

LUV2XCLR8 · 11-13-2005, 11:33 PM

Sweeeeeeeeeeet and Good luck

jakeslim · 11-13-2005, 11:36 PM

good find. I'd agree, looks like the 80's "touched" it. Don't sound too interested, something about doing that makes people think twice.

72 CustomCamper · 11-14-2005, 01:21 AM

Gotta love the linoleum on the floors...

Chuck

lazygaurd · 11-14-2005, 03:29 AM

Bouncy is right that is definitely a double wall. Looks like a good find though.

Huck · 11-14-2005, 08:27 AM

Now why can't I find something like that?? Lots of potential here. Interesting in that it isn't a CST yet has the rear quarter inner panels and delux seat covers. Too bad they tweeked the dash for the radio. Wonder if the roof rack is an original?

**Joesjunk** · 11-14-2005, 11:06 AM

Great find Trevor!!!! Keep me posted on it!!!

blazerparts · 11-14-2005, 11:11 AM

looks pretty clean

Joe67 · 11-14-2005, 11:14 AM

That does look like a nice project!!!

I was thinking the same thing about the rear side panels. I suppose the trim could have been removed during the 80's "updating".

**Yukon Jack** · 11-14-2005, 11:48 AM

Sure looks clean - good luck getting it!!!

Big Block · 11-14-2005, 02:51 PM

I love the color, but you have to lose the red stripe. I hope you get it. It looks like a nice project.

red71cheyenne · 11-14-2005, 04:21 PM

Looks like its in real good shape! Good luck, Jeff.

Frizzle Fry · 11-14-2005, 05:58 PM

The roof rack is the same as the one on my Burb and I've seen it on a few other Burbs. It's a dealer install. Never seen it on a Blazer before. Good luck!

GMC71k20 · 11-14-2005, 07:25 PM

looks really solid. hoows the white truck on 44s?

chevy_fatman · 11-14-2005, 09:18 PM

Very nice!! Good luck !

da-burb · 11-14-2005, 10:13 PM

I am green with envy if you get it. Keep an eye open for it's twin for me
