Re: Need help picking a daily driver......

You have got to be one of the luckiest bas**** I've ever seen, finding these things. I would love to find any of the ones you've come across, but up here, I get rust piles with a few usable parts left in 'em.

Congratulations.

Re: Need help picking a daily driver......

Rob,

You found my buddy!! That 68 burb is near 100% original, I can't believe he is selling it!! I'd buy that one, but those two Blazers are bad A too, I wonder what is up, he wasn't really going to sell any of those the last time I was there, economy must be getting to them too (small car lot, the 67-72 are a passion for him, not part of the lot).

He sold most of them. I think he kept a couple of 2 wheel drive blazers and a couple of suburbans.

Re: Need help picking a daily driver......

I voted for the SWB for you, since you already have a 'burb.

If it were me, I'd go for the 'burb since I have a SWB
