If you don't keep that 4x4 and do the resto on it, you've lost your mind.

msgross · 10-31-2008, 09:49 AM

and the final price was? congrats on a nice find...

Mine was original owner as well but it lived a hard life!

took some pictures today.

**Stocker** · 11-01-2008, 09:58 PM

Congrats, it looks like a really good solid truck. What was the final price? Are those TravelTanks?

Ilike 72"s · 11-01-2008, 10:13 PM

$2800

Dayum! Dat is NIIIIIIIIICE!

Sometimes I wish I didn't jump on buying my Blazer so fast, but then I have never run up on any nice stuff like that anyway.

Congrats and good score!

Thanks for the coments
This is amazing for a 36 year old truck. Only rock chips!!

**Stocker** · 11-02-2008, 03:48 PM

I'll answer my own earlier question, thank to that last pic... looks exactly like my TravelTanks -- a common dealer-installed item back in the day.

I'll say it again, congrats on a great deal on an excellent survivor!!

I'm not a big fan of threads like this that just turns out to be a "FLIP"....As you get excited for someone thinking that they are going to enjoy the vehicle themselves....

I'm all about making dough and I've flipped my share......but this thread to me is just kinda silly!

And It sure looks like some "SHILL" bidding going on with that truck ??

JMHO, Dan

Hey --Lighten up on me guys. I bought my first 72 4x4 in 1975. I still have it.
I bought my 1971 c10 short fleetside plain jane pickup over 25 years ago. I still have it. I bought my 71 short fleet 4x4 five years ago. I still have it.
I built my 70 project on this site and sent many pictures while doing so, with the intension of selling it by last July. I still have it.
Now this guys son ask me to buy his dads pickup (knowing i'm into them) so his dad doesn't turn it into a trap wagon. I'm passing it on to somebody that wants one.I even ask here whats a fair price. I have had 7 people from this site contact me. Money is tight. Please ---If you want it--TELL ME.
Why do ya want to drag ME to your fire???

There is nothing wrong with free enterprise, that is what makes America great! However, I am not a fan of buying - selling our type of vehicles on e-bay. I watch many auctions out of interest and it seems the sales are never completed to legit buyers who submit feedback and show an increase in their e-bay score. I recently saw the stats on how many vehicles are now sold on e-bay, it is impressive. Maybe it works for newer junk? The bidding on this truck is definitely suspect, where does this this guy with little history but some bidding on video games, a new e-bayer and he decides to bid on a $5000+ classic truck? I would much prefer the buy with type transaction that occured with this truck previously. Parts, I will buy on e-bay, vehicles forget it!

You got a good deal on that truck.
