Need some advice !!
I posted some pics on a possible purchase on an earlier thread http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s....php3?t=110689
I have now found a second one I like as well, both fairly local. Any help deciding would be greatly appreciated. More eyes are much better than mine alone. Thanks Here are a few of the second one. |

I like this one better than the yellow one personally....both are great looking blazers....
This blazer is cool looking with the two tone, but the yellow blazer has a VERY clean looking interior. the green/blue blazer has the cupholders console tho' MORE USEFUL :-) I personally don't like the swing away tire carrier, but it does save some room in the interior. Good luck! Diane |

Pick One
One's an auto with A/C and ones a stick without...two different beast's.
All depends on what your looking for. Both seem very clean but I like the two tone one better. Either would be awesome |

Did you drive them? I think that will help your decision. I like the standard shift. My 2 cents. :-)

green two tone
That one looks like the one on "Without A Trace" Thursday night. Newer trim, two opposed steering stabilizers. Could it be? moodyholler

I saw the listing for this one. It has a interesting spare tire carrier and jerry can carrier. If you plan to wheel them at all (they both look to nice to do any serious wheeling) the brackets on this one hang down low.

I think you made a good choice. It looks really nice! Post more pictures when you pick it up (if you haven't already).

Well, it`s back to the drawing board........someone stole it out from under me on e-bay with 5 seconds to go. I had already talked to the owner about picking it up Tuesday. Not a real happy individual at the moment.

Sorry to hear that.
Did you see the blue one in TX with 64K original miles on it? That one looks like a great score to me! It is currently at 9,600 and the reserve is met. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...sPageName=WDVW

well your stoked on teh truck. theres no question about that. if i was 15 and had that truck i wold hav ebeen very happy... As far as teh wrong reserve goes, that is not your fault that is his. I was recently screwed on what i thought was a steal as well, and i ldont like that kind of business. kind of funny how he lets you know that after the bidding is over!

15 and $15K! Wow. That is a very nice looking truck. Congrats!
I thought that e-bay requires the seller to honor the contract? It was over the reserve for many day's before the auction ended. He should have stopped the auction if he put the wrong reserve in. Sounds to me like he didn't get as much as he expected so he's adding $ onto the price.

I think the 15K is a raw deal. I would be pissed. You can find a whole lot of truck for a whole lot cheaper. That guy is shady. I paid $4800 off E-bay for mine.

I looked at allot of Blazers before I got my Jimmy. I found out that you can not tell by the asking price what the truck is like. When you look at it and drive it you will know what kind of deal you are getting. The Blazer looks good and solid in the pictures. The seller should honor his contract. Good luck.

Looks like a solid Blazer to me. I'd work to get it at the price he agree upon with his e-bay contract though.
