1970 Blazer 28k original miles - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I thought you guys might enjoy some pictures of a 1970 Blazer with just under 28k original miles. It showed up on a local car lot and was gone just as quickly as it appeared. Maybe a board member gave it a new home.... Sharpie

How much were they asking for it.

**too much stuff** · 01-24-2010, 11:38 AM

That is sweet. So how come you didn't get it????

*sharpie1972* · 01-24-2010, 12:14 PM

Around $8000 and I'm not sure who got it.
Too much stuff: With A.C., low miles, no rust, near mint body and interior there just wasn't enough hard work left to lure me in! Actually I would have loved to have it but I was remodeling my house at the time and figured I had better buy cabinets instead of a Blazer. Sharpie

OMG... once in a lifetime find for the Blazer community.

Jtrux · 01-24-2010, 10:37 PM

Neat options. 16 inch wheels just look a little different but I like them.

Critter · 01-24-2010, 11:35 PM

Daaauuumn!

bouncytruck · 01-25-2010, 01:53 AM

Nice. I've never seen one with white bumpers, utility buckets and AC

Yeah AC, without power brakes or steering. 8 grand was a bargain.

I'm generally skeptical of any "XX,XXX original miles" older vehicle when there are only 5 digits on the odometer, but this one looks like it's probably legit. Heck even if it was 128K on the Blazer, it is still a wonderful survivor and worth the $8K!

dieselarmy13 · 01-25-2010, 03:50 PM

Damn! A little elbow grease and that thing would be NICE!

Critter · 01-25-2010, 04:31 PM

Did they have enough antennas on that thing???

*sharpie1972* · 01-25-2010, 04:46 PM

No kidding, notice the two CB's on the dash. I think the old guy that owned was a surveyor and had to get into some pretty remote areas of Wyoming. His widow sold it after he was gone. No doubt in my mind the 28k was legit. Sharpie

*Sublvr72* · 01-25-2010, 04:57 PM

wow, what a gem!

teeitup · 01-25-2010, 05:21 PM

WOW Dennis, your killing me, that would of worked for me even though it wasn't a 71 or 72. NICE blazer!!!!!!!

badpeanut · 01-25-2010, 09:39 PM

I've seen the rear seat padded armrests on both ways (more thickly padded side toward the passengers like in this picture and the other way around). Does this picture prove this is the factory correct way?

*sharpie1972* · 01-25-2010, 10:17 PM

I've seen both ways as well. I think it was up to the assembler. Many of the rear seats I've had are tagged "Canada". Sharpie
