If shipping wasn't over $20, and if you were willing to box it, I'd take it if nobody local takes if off your hands.

Then again I'm assuming it would fit my truck, mine is an '84, I'm pretty sure 73-87 rear windows are all the same dimensions.

that cab is an 85
so it should fit
but, how much does one cost new
would it be worth it with the shipping - I'm sure it would be over 20 bucks
I shipped a blowproof bell housing to california and that cost 44 bucks
this probably would not be worth it to you

You are correct sir. And the way things worked out is really cool. I googled a 73-87 rear slider just to get an idea of what they cost, and thought I might find the dimensions and weight to get a UPS quote. In the process I ran across a Pickup Specialties site, and the page it took me to was a list of clearance items they had. One of the items was a rear slider for a 73-87 Chevy. A little more research looking for their phone number on the site told me they were located in Houston with me. The window turned out to be black frame, smoke tint, still in what was left of the original box, normally $149, last one, on clearance for $59. I went and picked it up during lunch.

So in a weird way, it all worked out perfectly!

I may not have made a sale - but I'm glad that I didn't
I would much rather see you get your moneys worth than getting a used piece for more
good luck - oh you just had the good luck - so great find

drum to drum
and the axles bolt to the hubs (full floater?)
shipping would be a ton for you though
is there nothing closer to you
I did not respond to your thread because you were so far away

Tom would you happen to have a steering draglink that would fit a 77 1/2 ton K10 truck? I am in need of one, and since your close, I thought I would ask you first before I posted up on the site. And sorry didnt get over to see the doors, my buddy was in town, so I visited with him a bit.

[ghitch75]

make any offer you want
alot of this stuff is going to the scrap yard within the next couple of weeks
bunches of free stuff here also
time is running out to save big
sounds like a commecial huh
seriously though
what ever I don't get rid of over the next couple weeks will be crushed
so if you are local and you need something
get on down here
prices are very low to free
i'm making room and it would be ashame to see it all get scrapped if someone could use it

Is the 1975 8' bed set up for dual tanks? The sides look good in the pics. How is the floor rough or decent? Is it still for sale?
How much of the rest of the truck is still there?? I might be interested in the whole rig for parts.

the bed is set up for dual tanks
the gas tanks are already spoken for - the guy gave me a deposit for them
the cab has already been removed and used elsewhere
there is a 3/4 ton 2wd frame there but alot of the parts have been removed
the bed is in great shape - two small patches have been done to the floor
and the passenger side right behind the wheel is dented a little - but is easily repairable

Does the frame still roll? Hooking up to the front frame horns sans bumper would be the best route for me as otherwise I will need to scrounge a trailer.

I can try to scrounge up some tires and wheels for the front and bolt the sterring box back in

On your 87 doors, do you have the vent window frames on them? I only need the vent windows, I know Im no where near you but I wouldn't think it would be a big deal to ship those little things.

do you just need the vent windows
or the windows and the frame that holds them
I do have a few laying around
as for the locks
do you need the ones with the release button or the older style that doesn't have the button
I have a bunch of the ones that don't have the buttons

What I really need is the frame for the drivers side. It doesnt really need the glass but Its no problem if the glass comes with it. The bottom stud on mine broke and so my window just dangles there when I open it. I dont really need a lock as the ones I have now are just fine. If you could, could you get a pic of one?
Thanks

Is the Blazer full size? If so, is the power steering box in good shape?

[ymhjrhd]

Do you still have the front and rear diffs?

100.00 shipping included

even if I would give them to you
the cost of having them shipped to you would be way more than they would be worth
that is if you are in wa
not that I don't want you to have them
just don't think it would be financially feesable

I have looked around and think I got rid of them
really thought I still had them
I do have one set left on an 85 truck and might be tearing that one down soon
I will get some pictures of that once I bring it home
