Re: i found the one in a million
Nice score. Welcome to the club. I just picked up mine in Jan. What are your plans for it? Drive it, Restore, or Custom?

Re: i found the one in a million
i think a nice set of 20" and some air bags should start it off right.here are some perfect examples. Tony

Re: i found the one in a million
I see that everyone drops them and puts bags on them but why haven't I seen a completely bone stock restoration on a 2wd?

Re: i found the one in a million
I've seen a couple close to bone stock restos. There was a restofication for sale a while back for $45,000. LUV and I were discussing it. He might still have the link or remember who was selling it.
Bottom line, they look sooooo sweet bag and rollin on 20's.

So what is the most someone has sold a 2WD blazer for? I know it is real easy to put alot of money into one so I was just wondering what thay have gone for. I am planning to put between 20 and 30K into mine just in parts along and another 1500-3000 hours to boot. I am not building to sell it because it will be my calling card for my buisness. So just one bas arss ride to show and play with. Kevin LFD Inc. |

Re: i found the one in a million
The tip and flip will be getting test fit as soon as Lemon Drop is painted and out. That should be about 2-4 weeks, then I will finish up Low Buck real quick before the Trazer comes back for a truck top and a chop!

Re: i found the one in a million
LIL JOHN BUTTERA'S Blazer has been listed at $95,000, but as far as I know it hasn't sold. It's been listed for a couple years now.

Re: i found the one in a million
Awesome Awesome Awesome!!! The slammed look with the 20's is good but you also need a twin turbocharged small block under the hood!
That wasn't supposed to rhyme

Re: i found the one in a million
hey Burt, you can't turn a 2wd into a 4wd ,some guy might come along and beat the $*@t out of you.all joking aside i have only been in Auburn for just under 2 years, and let me tell you it is great.if your a car guy or you like to do out doors stuff this is the place to be.and on top of that you can find a clean 67-72 just about anywhere up here, it's like they grow on trees around here.this is a big change from the Bay area.Tony
