Re: bye 71 blazer body

R.I.P. What are your plans for the frame? Any interest in selling it?

Re: bye 71 blazer body

How bad is the frame "rust" wise? And had the blazer ever been wrecked or show signs of body damage?

Re: bye 71 blazer body

The frame looks like a 72 Sucks that the body was rusted out but atleast you still have the chassis and that's the hardest part to get.

Re: bye 71 blazer body

Nice eye Dustin, that is a 2 frame, I'd give more than most would, since you
are not a subscriber you really can't ask what's it worth, but I'd say $1200.

Re: bye 71 blazer body

well the story behind the rust is my friend bought the blazer as a roller out of NC pulled the 2wd body off the frame and put his 4wd body on the 2wd frame. the frame has some lite rust but know pits or rot holes. Its been in NY for 4 years now and the frame has never seen salt so in real nice shape

Re: bye 71 blazer body

The rear of the frame.On the 69-71 frames the frame doesn't come down like that.The tub is notched on 72s for the frame coming down.Something to think about if putting a 69-71 tub on a 72 chassis
