Clarkw owns this one? Looks really good and a good value. Wouldn't be able to build it for that.

Wish I could find a 67 - 72 Burb built similar to this white one or the black one we've been discussing.

Hart_Rod has a Burb and he has been thinning the herd lately... you might catch him in the right mood with the right offer.

Hope you get it and it stays "in the family"

I would feel good about paying $15,900 for it if it is truly rust free. At this point I am very skeptical of the use of the term "rust free".

He put more pics of it up on eBay. It may be in better shape than mine when I bought it, with the exception of the CB antenna cut in the bedside. It has been repainted, but it does have the Protect-o-plate.

Good eye. Might be nothing, then again....

Chulisohombre · 04-10-2015, 12:24 PM

There's no such thing as rust free on anything over 5 years old. There barely rust free from the factory. Even if it's been rebuilt and painted there's rust somewhere. I can believe low rust as a description though.

Agreed, you will always find something, mine
has a small area under the passenger bucket,
floor was damaged, not rusted, but it still had
to be fixed. I have the pics from where "Tub"
was blasted on a rotisserie, so it's a true 99%.

2ndGenRR · 04-23-2015, 08:54 AM

Found this one on CL in my area...Seems like a decent deal so I am gonna go have a look. What do you guys think?

smbrouss70 · 04-10-2015, 12:31 PM

Somebody needs to buy this, before I have to get divorced. I even tried telling her that we could have his and hers '70 2wd's. It didn't work though.

**Advanced Design** · 04-10-2015, 01:31 PM

I just stumbled over that one on Ebay and came here to let you all know. Does look like a good one. He just picked it up on CL recently?

dubds10 · 04-10-2015, 03:27 PM

It was on CL around $10gs & I think that's tops for it. I wouldn't pay $16gs for it that's for sure.

It's absolutely "to each his own" but if a person wants and original paint non-rust bucket 70-72 2wd Blazer they are going to have to pay this kind of money. The guy who's trying to flip this one was very fortunate he got to it first, there is money to be made for sure. I personally would have kept it to build. And I would have given it the full Porterbuilt treatment!!!

so guys whats all the money on this blazer?as of right now there has been no bids placed on it at 16k just wondering what you guys think as far as value the way it sits right now?My thoughts are 12k would be a good buy.

Sure it is a nice Blazer, but it has absolutely no options on it. Not even a center console. That is why there is no excitement about it. It is just kind of uninteresting. For me I wouldn't go over 10k If I had any interest, but what do I know?

yeah your right!! also I wonder if it is 6 lug bolt pattern?I think the advantage here is the time and money saved on sheet metal if in fact it is rust free who knows?If the motor and trans is good do static drop with some wheels and roll would be the game plan.

So with no top, and no back seat what are th thoughts on value here?

**Advanced Design** · 04-12-2015, 06:58 PM

Guessing having a top would be desirable?

smbrouss70 · 04-13-2015, 12:54 AM

I paid right at $10k for mine, which was in a similar condition, only original paint but a little rust on the driver's rocker. Mine was bought with no top, and a junk interior which originally came with only a driver's seat, so I have more than doubled the cost on it since. Contrary to popular belief, most of the early Blazers that I have seen were fairly stripped down, but in my mind that doesn't make them any less desirable.

Do "I" think it is worth what he is asking? Yes. If I would have bought this one instead, my interior cost would have been much much less. Of course the suspension and drivetrain costs would have still been the same.

BTW, it will have 6-lug drums on all 4 corners.
