Price
Hey Jason, I do not know the value of this Jimmy. However the wide range of estimates indicate the value is somewhat subjective with board members. Good luck and buyer beware.

Let me clarify a few of the concerns some have. I've had several Blazers and one other Jimmy and torn several apart besides my own. I do know exactly where to look. I crawled underneath and looked at the rocker boxes really good- solid. I pulled up the carpet all along the sides around the wheel tubs and also the front pans- solid. There is also no rust in the rear corners of the bed floor like even a real clean Blazer would typically have. I peeled up the weather stripping around the windshield and the original paint underneath looks good with no signs of rust. The interior was not repainted and there is not pinhole coming through the inside either. What I can't see of course is the supports behind the rocker box or pillars and backer behind the rocker. The bottoms of the doors are what actually worries me the most because that is relatively in the same exposure area as the rockers and everything behind them. In short, I checked it out real good. Earlier in the thread I just wanted to highlight what was bad and assuming everything else was o.k.
That being said, if it was a 4spd no thrills truck, I probably would only look to give $2K to $2500 for it. But it's a factory a/c '72 with a single wall top and cheyenne package (and I like Blue). Tach and tilt would finish it off nicely which I have sitting around. $3600 and still on the upper edge of what I'd like to pay for it so thinking of offering less despite his "bottom dollar". Couldn't hurt. If I decide to do it right later, I'll redo the patches myself and then send it off for paint. Bodywork and interior I'm into. Paint I'm not so that will be my major out of pocket expense if and when. All that being said, still undecided. Thanks for all of the help and advice. That's why I love having this resource available to me! In the end I agree with the low enders and can only hope the high enders are actually correct! ![]()

I just about bought one about 3 years ago for $2,500 that was in just a little worse shape than this one, but it was not factory a/c. I would value the one you are showing pics of at $3,000 to $3,500.

I'd say the 3- 3.5 range also only because of the AC.

Looks like you could buy it and part it out and always get your money back on that one. Being a CST, I'm wondering about the side trim too. Also I don't see the CST emblem on the door just below the window, but maybe that was a GMC thing.

I mis-stated the CST on the doors, my CST also says custom on the doors.

Plan on giving him a call tonight. Still up in the air. Like I said, would love to have it. Problem is it needs to be a better "deal" to justify it. I'm back to work tomorrow for the next 4 days so I'll probably let it sit. If he can get it sold for what he wants, great. If not, maybe I'll offer him $3K max. Also, if anyone else might be interested in this, shoot me a pm. Not looking to make any money brokering the deal but could help out with getting it done.
