Currently on Ebay, not mine but I thought the description was quite humourous. Comes from dry Colorado where there is no salt on the roads. Very little rust, small amount in kickpanels. No explaination as to how the rockers fell off!

Re: check this out
LOL. No salt, eh? I'm amazed the seat hasn't fallen through the floor.
I'd love to have that car sitting behind it. Looks like a Chevelle from the same era...with the slope of the hood and vent window, suppose it could be a Camaro or Nova...Skylark or Olds.

Re: check this out
Yeah Colorado don't use salt we use gravel and sand that has naturally contains salt. And even worse the DOT uses this nasty liquid that will rust your vehicle 10X faster than regular salt. Colorado Trucks rust differently they typically rust in the rocker area and the cab corners but usually the floors stay good for the most part. My GMC has bad rockers and bad cab corners but good floors and underneath the cab all supports are still in great shape I thought that that was unusual until I seen countless trucks with the exact same rust damage as mine.

Re: check this out
That truck IS unusual -- in 1971, most Blazers were CST equipped. Not only is this NOT a CST, but it was ordered with the very rare "rocker delete" option.

Re: check this out
i like how he says you could drive it across country. A paragragh later it has sloppy steering and no taillights.

Re: check this out
The rear hatch looks to be in great shape...... I would really like to get a good look at it as it looks to be a great deal if it can be had at the right price..
