Re: Anyone in west virginia need a chalet camper?

I am close enough to go get it, but I do not have the cash or a blazer to put it in. I would love to grab this up and flip it for some good cash. Seems like the seller does not know what he really has.

i think the seller knows what he has you can also read it in the add also he says its rare.
i think he has this price on it because he know that it will be sold at this price

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

ehh then I guess they just go for more around where I am. They are never around my place and the few ones I seen, were selling at double that.

now correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought that you need to mod your k5 a fair bit to get this puppy to the point that it bolts on..

Re: Anyone in west virginia need a chalet camper?

PM reply sent to spudz. Actually, of all the shells-only I've tracked since 2005 for sale, most go for around $200 - $400, as there isn't much collector value in units that have been separated from the trucks. One did go for $600 on eBay in the east Ohio area a while back, I was surprised by that. But the guy ended up dumping it for next to nothing in a moving sale a year or so later. A Michigan guy bought it along with 3 others, hoping to put one or two good ones together out of the bunch

Complete vehicle versions in lousy shape might start around $1000, but still that's really the camper in the same price range plus whatever the value of the truck parts are if the body can't be saved from the rust. The #1382 on eBay ended at $10,277 earlier today, reserve-not-met. It's one of the better ones I've ever seen.

My guess about putting these on '78 & newer 2nd gen Blazers is that the bolt areas changed in the center, probably where the back seat was.
