Re: Poor old Feathers Blazer!!
Guys she's pretty rusty.... 1 rocker box is almost gone, the other has holes, the windshield frame is bad, bad, bad. Both rear quarters are pretty hammered, both doors rusty and dented... The rear of the bed bottom is almost gone... The seats are not originals, the list goen on. I will make the trip to Black Diamond, but am not holding mutch hope.... It may be RIP. WES

Re: Poor old Feathers Blazer!!
That thing is history, and a piece of history.
Those are Jackman Wheels. Only the spoke is welded to the rim. Best looking 8 spoke. All it lacks is Desert Dogs. Part it out.

Re: Poor old Feathers Blazer!!
WOW.... That would be a resurrection! Might try to see about getting just the hood if he won't come way way down. If you can I'd take a beater, usable hood along if needed to close the deal. By having the hood you could reverse engineer a "Hickey style" hood to sell.

Re: Poor old Feathers Blazer!!
This thing was probably awesome in its day. Could someone explain to me what it is or was? Never heard or seen anything like it

Wes,
long drive for not much of a blazer. U may could get some parts but the $1600.00 price is way off. I would offer him $500.00 to take it home. U want know unless u ask! ![]() ![]() And no I don't think that is a low ball offer considering all the mis information on it. ![]()

Re: Poor old Feathers Blazer!!
I am sure that I will be giving it a look this weakend. I agree that it isn't worth much more than $500.00. I talked to him again today and it doesn't seem like he will go much lower than $1400.00 for it. But I will see.... I have more pics, but they only get worce. WES

Re: Poor old Feathers Blazer!!
Did you ever go and see it? Did you score a hood?

Re: Poor old Feathers Blazer!!
I think the paint is making it look worse than it is. =) But there is the rust.
