Decided on what your hoping to do with it yet?

Looks like a factory tach dash at least.

Leaning towards restore or slight mod. Have a 305 with tranny I have been saving for something. Hey does anyone know what the brackets in second pick hanging from top are for? Didn't know if they were factory or add on.

Old speaker brackets?

My friend that owned your Blazer had it running and it was driveable about 4 year ago. He bought a 71 GMC 2wd Jimmy from me so he was going to use it for parts. He starting taking parts off of it for other project. He removed the 6 cly head and used it on a 4x4 short bed truck he had. He sold the drivers door. It ended up in a field behide his house the last 4years. He then sold it and 4 other parts trucks to the guy you bought it off of. The guy you got it from removed the rear end.

Hey thanks for info. Title says last owner was Apex.

I think it is originally from Ca. Check the glove box sticker see if it has Z in the vin# that means it was built at the Fremont Ca. plant. I could be wrong, but that is what I remember.

Thanks I will look tomorrow. Have you ever seen brackets hanging from roof like this one? They appear almost factory.

He never put it in his name. Yes he did buy it from a guy in Apex. I know because I found it and showed it to him. I didn't have the money to buy it at the time. The guy still lives in Apex. Went by his house last weekend. He has a couple of old muscle car in his back yard. He has a old 442 convertible I like to get my hands on.

They're not, Harry home owner install.

It had a roof rack on it too. If you look I think you will find holes in the top. They may have caulk in them now.

Well I was second in line for it. Said a guy from Tenn called and told him to hold it then never got back with him. I know you know what he was asking for it. Not to brag but he let me have it for just north of half of that. I figured top and carrier were worth that.

Roof rack still there.Check other posting you can see in pics.

I sure those are after market speaker brackets.

I'm glad to see some one get it and do something with it. It was rusting into the ground in his backyard. I wanted it for the the bedsides, frame and title. I was thinking of using the bedsides on the one I just sold. I was going to use the frame and title and put my Jimmy body on it. It's all timing. I'm always a day late and a dollar short.

NOW I am a dollar short. Always wanted a 2 wheel drive,just didn't know I was going to run across one. I know this one needs a lot of work but what else do I have to do with 2 out of 3 children in college now?

Yes, it is Flint. Sorry must have been one of his other Blazers.
