Quite a few going up for sale around there, aren't there. You sure keep a pretty good eye out Bouncy.

clean71 · 11-02-2011, 08:36 PM

Mine may be for sale shortly and from what I've seen some going for, I won't get anywhere near what I'd like. :-( 1972 GMC Jimmy. Black, 68 chevy front clip, new (as in never driven) edelbrock performer 350, new 700r4, and possibly Porterbuilt's stage II kit. Not sure if he's started on it yet. I've slowly had to sell off my stable. These pics were taken before I bought her and she's probably not quite as clean now.

jeffg1010 · 11-04-2011, 07:33 PM

I hate to jinx it, but I gotta tell someone! (Of course, I already told GCBURDIC, he's a local though) I think (after an exhaustive search) I have found the project Blazer I've been searching for. Should know on Tuesday. It's pretty sweet and I have pics, but I KNOW that'll jinx it.

72BlckButy · 11-04-2011, 10:02 PM

Come on JeffG.... you know you can't mention having pics without posting them.

Congrats on the find, can't wait to see it in your driveway.

jeffg1010 · 11-04-2011, 10:32 PM

Give me til Tuesday. He lives pretty far away, so even though we've worked the deal, until cash changes hands... I dont want to start showing it off. But I am still pretty stoked.

Just like I told burbman69 and gcburdic at the Detroit Speed open house the other night. I've already started building it . . . in my mind. haha.

Just giving you some crap...

jeffg1010 · 11-22-2011, 11:10 PM

Man, I found a WHOLE herd of 2wd Blazers... already restored and CHEAP!

...at Target.

jeffg1010 · 11-22-2011, 11:30 PM

Oh!!! I had someone ask me if that was the Blazer I was talking about two weeks ago.
Nah... I got that one.

I just forgot to follow up on this thread.

Big Block · 11-23-2011, 10:59 AM

Why was it rough? Was the interior tore up?

Some very nice 2wd Blazers, I hope to own one some day.

Hope this doesn't derail the thread but I'm looking for a top for a 1972 2wd Blazer.
I'm interested in buying a 72 2wd but it comes without a top.
I'm from Canada but no hard tops to be found up here so I will have to expand my search.

Anyone out there know of one in good shape?

Thanks

tnamarine · 11-30-2011, 09:21 PM

Do you need a single wall or double wall? Theres a guy out here on the coast with a decent black single wall for sale for $300. Needs a little bit of work on the hatch but nothing major at all. I was going to pick it up but i need a double wall to match the holes in my bed. Let me know if you want his contact info and i'll gladly pass it along

I think I would prefer a double wall as well, from what I've heard they help make for a quieter interior. I don't know for sure what this Blazer came with original because all holes have been filled and is not set up for a top but the only way I am interested in buying it is if I can put a top on it.

PHAT TONY · 11-29-2011, 12:01 PM

Good for you! That's a SUPER sweet Blazer!

PHAT TONY · 11-30-2011, 08:08 PM

Is the top white? I'd like to see it on. I reckon you need to post up too many pics in the Blazer section!

RustyBucket · 11-30-2011, 08:20 PM

here 'tis... purty, ain't it?

jeffg1010 · 11-30-2011, 08:24 PM

Man, I love that Blazer...
It even makes Ochre look good.

In fact... his Blazer has inspired my build so much, it graces the "man cave" fridge in my garage.

You could try Scotts Super Trucks in Penhold, he may be able to help.

Sent them an email a week or so ago, no reply yet. I will have to give them a call one of these days.
