I personally think you'd have to be dead set on a real 2WD to pick something like that up. With the amount of cancer treatment needed to bring it back, it'd be much easier and cheaper to convert a 4x4. My personal opinion is changing the tub on this one would not be an option so you never get questioned on swapping the vin.

She's real rough! She needs allot of panels for sure. My part of the country C10 swb, blazer and Burbs are super rare. I've been looking down south and shipping one back to build.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

Price way high unless the parts he was planning on using on it come with it. I bought one in simular shape for 400 and took what I needed off. Then still resold it for 300. You basically look yo need to replace or repair most of the body on that. Running and drivable I'd say yes to price. But there ain't a lot of meat left on the bone here.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

I've been talking to the owner of this. His brother has the C10 next to it that's all done up with PorterBuilt.

He bought this like 2 years ago from the orginal owner the top was damaged by a fallen tree in a storm.

I really like this blazer and it's close to my house. It's super sick!

Get a soft top. You'll use it more in florida than a hard top anyway.

The red one above from Texas was for sale in Washington about a year ago for $12,000 he must have bought it.

Everything is for sale at the right price.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

I'd actually like to see a thread titled "How much these Blazers sold for", as apparently my Blazer isn't worth much near this much. Came to my senses and it's not for sale anymore, but still....

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

There worth as much as someone is Willing to Pay. I've had guys offer me five grand before and mines not in great shape. Some people just want them so bad that it Doesn't Matter the Price Or Work needed done. Our trucks are getting more expensive as they are gettin more scarce. Start a thread on this subject. People can start adding theirs to that too. Glad you didn't Sell. I sure You Are too. I don't ever see me getting Rid Of Mine. 15 years and hopefully God willing another 30 with my blazer.

I think they are getting more and more popular to have because they are getting rare. Even 4wd ones.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

Is it too much to ask for a solid 2wd 350/350 with a good top and decent paint/interior for $12500?

... depends, if I'm BUYIN' $12,500 is a LOT, if I'm SELLIN', $12,500's not nearly enough


I like my '72 a lot but I'd trade it for the right '60's GM convertible car.

I don't think that is out of line. I paid less for mine, but you saw my crappy interior at CTC. I almost have the difference in price wrapped up in my new interior that I still have to put in.

Add in the cost of suspension, brakes, engine & trans repairs, etc. (if they are all fresh rebuilds) and the cost just goes up from there. From April (when I bought mine) to October, I'm betting that I more than doubled the cost of my Blazer just getting it ready for CTC, and I'm still not finished with it. You know as well as I do, things get expensive QUICK!

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

Is it sacrilege to just remove the front suspension from a 4x4 and replace it with stock A-Arm type suspension? Are the people looking for 2wd Blazers and Jimmy's only looking for original 2wd's? Doesn't look like it would be that hard to do.
