Look what I picked up last weekend

1971 Blazer with 32,000 miles. It has a few good options, houndstooth seats, posi rear axle, AC, skid plates & it's one of the most rust free original Blazers I have ever seen.

I don't think I like you all I ever find is over priced junk or rust buckets

Looks really nice!

Where did you find it?
Were you looking or just stumble across it?

Wanna sell it...?

I found it at an auction, I saw the ad & it was about a 1/2 mile from where I work so I went & took a look at it. I wasn't looking for one but it was so nice & original with low miles so I bid on it & won. My wife isn't too happy with me for buying it so I'll probabaly just clean it up, fix a few things & put it up for sale & hope it dosen't sell.

Nice find - never see that in auctions around here - rusty junk only.

Re: Look what I picked up last weekend

It seems like everyone is finding nice originals but me! Great purchase. Much to your dismay I will be waiting to see this one in the for sale section.

Re: Look what I picked up last weekend

Well the Blazer is gone. The new owner picked it up today & is driving it back to Florida. I was sad to see it go but my wife is happy. I'll probably never find another one this nice again.

Dang!! I thought you were going to give the board first crack! Oh well. Congrat's on the sale. Hopefully the new owner is going to become a member.

Re: Look what I picked up last weekend

I saw that on ebay and wished I had the money for it. Would have been exactly what I was looking for. Congrats on the sale. Hope you got your wife something nice for putting up with it :-D
