I'm sure his is much nicer and better done than mine, but check my build thread for my $40 rail pads.

58K is cheap compared to what you'd pay buy the EXACT same type of resto mod of a 69 Camaro, or 70 Chevelle or any mid 60's Vette, or Challenger or 'cuda or Mustang or pick any popular muscle CAR. And this Blazer is much more UNIQUE with all the same technology, quality and awesomeness of any of them. And yet many still think that quality, professional resto modded C-10s and Blazers should be maxed out at 20K........maybe give it another few years and our trucks and Blazers will see the respect they deserve. And before I jump off my soapbox, our Blazers are much more rare in production numbers and numbers of survivors than most of the models listed above!

$8500. It has spent the last 20 years in Missouri. Older restoration, with a real ugly front flame job on it. I think it was overpriced by $2000 but that may just be me. I think it had a vortec 305 in it but not sure.

I called and asked what the first two letter of the vin was, he replied with CK.

If the metal is all good and the 2wd conversion was done "right", $8,500 seems pretty cheap, even with the awful flames, IMHO.

Called him to check on the build date in hopes it could shed light on my build date (thanks to smbrouss70 for the tip). Seemed like a nice guy...and like a legit one owner survivor. I think all things considered it's a good value 70 2wd survivor complete...they certainly aren't getting cheaper.

C10_ustacould · 04-08-2015, 11:27 PM

CRAP!!! I hate that I am stuck in this '71! AHHHHHH!!

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.

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!!!
