Love the early front end. Looks great!

Hey! I'm lookin for one! 2 wheel drive that is. On the east coast. I believe that'd be the right coast. Like to find a project so I can do it my way. Gettin tired of my sub. Any tips/leads will be appreciated.

You're not kidding...someone here HAS to jump on that...1000OBO and comes with 1000 worth of sheetmetal??? Even if the tub is toast that is a deal for a frame and sheetmetal. If I wasn't out of work and finishing another project I would have that one and the roadster project in this classifieds in my garage right now

5150 · 10-18-2009, 03:01 PM

Go get is Jonathan!!!!

VA72C10 · 10-18-2009, 03:18 PM

No job = no project funds....gotta get the longbed finished and most likely will have to sell that unless I get a job I'm looking at and hit bonus at year end...

**lks dcvn** · 10-18-2009, 06:16 PM

I called on it - waiting on a few pix...

72gmcshorty · 10-19-2009, 08:27 AM

I jumped on it the first day the ad was put up. Money order was sent Monday and I'll be making a trip to Ia next week (after Craigs meet this weekend) to pick it up. Will start a thread with pics when I get it home.

71jimmy · 10-21-2009, 03:46 PM

I looked at this one in Sac.

http://sacramento.craigslist.org/ctd/1429287935.html

The rocker panels are screwed on

It has some nice stuff but it would need to be gone through completely because it has loose ends all over the place. Has a single wall top, but the windows are out. For almost 19G it has way too much to fix. I would however give $7500 for it.

We're leaving out this Wednesday to go get this.

**Ron 586** · 10-25-2009, 06:24 PM

I'll have a cooler ful of drinks and away we go. Can't wait to get her home.

**lolife99** · 10-25-2009, 06:31 PM

Make sure and take plenty of "road trip" pictures.

**Ron 586** · 10-25-2009, 06:45 PM

You know I will.

72BlckButy · 10-27-2009, 10:59 PM

Ron, I was seriously considering this Blazer, so I'm glad you bought it before I did. The wife wouldn't have been happy.

Have a safe trip and just drop off the Blazer on your way by my house... (South of Kingdom City, MO I-70)

**Ron 586** · 10-28-2009, 12:56 AM

I've had a few offers to take her off my hands but that won't be until they hold my estate sale. (And I plan to stick around for a little while yet.)

**lks dcvn** · 10-28-2009, 10:52 AM

I also called on it Ron - was waiting on pix from the seller when you snatched it up. I can't buy most stuff unless I can see what it is - which can be good and bad in the same breath.

I was disappointed when I called the guy back about the pix the next day and he said 'some guy in TN bought it' - I was like............what? Damn - another one missed.

I figured that was life/karma and then tracked down the buyer and found it to be Ron. I sent him a PM to say congrats on the purchase when I found out it was a board member - figured I would rather see it go to one of the 'family'.

Safe travels out to get it and back!

Thank you sir. I don't know who was where first but when I called he said he was surprised that it would sell on first call with no haggling. He called me back in 2 hours to make sure I wanted it because the phone was ringing off the hook after we talked with people wanting to know about the blazer. I told him I wanted it and he said it's yours. This was early Sunday morning because I told him it would be Monday morning before I could get the Postal money order. I hope no one feels wronged as I said I would take it from the 2 pics with the ad and him telling me he had a clear title. Craig and I are leaving from Jackson Tn. at 3 pm to go get it. Thread and pics when I get it home.

**lks dcvn** · 10-28-2009, 12:53 PM

No harm - no foul Ron - Glad to see that somebody got it that I 'knew' and I can watch it get rebuilt.

There are bigger things to worry about in life.

Was I was disappointed - yes - but that just means that there is another one out there waiting for me to find it - or for it to find me...

There is little stress in my life and I like to keep it that way...working on these trucks is a stress relief for me.
