What's this worth? need opinions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have located a almost 100% rust free blazer (what I am told). This is the first time I have bought something in this condition but I am looking for a project that I can work on a little bit at a time when we get extra money here and there.

Its a 72. no motor, has the 4speed and 205 still in it. No A/C. Guy does work with fiberglass molds and supposedly made this top from another. It would take some re-inforcing I am sure. The dash was cut to mount a massive CB it looks like. I don't even think a CD player bezel will cover it up. No front seats. he has another used from grille for it and another tailgate, Original bumper and tailgate are dented. What is a good price for this thing? I understand, not having rust is a good start, but I don't know what a good price is? He WANTS $5000 for it. It has custom for sale signs as you will see.

more pics....

If it's TRULY rust free it MIGHT be worth half that. If it's has "normal" rust it's probably not worth much more than $1,000. With no motor and seats like you say maybe not even $1,000.

With what you have in the description and pics, $2500 is the most I would do. A lot of stuff to get and or fix. I agree with 71swb4x4 if it has any rust.

he's at $3500 now...

**truckster** · 06-05-2011, 12:00 AM

I definitely wouldn't give more than $1,000 for that.

What it is worth is the sum of the salvageable parts. Which isn't much.

My search continues...I lowballed, but he still thinks its worth more. Thanks for the help.

bouncytruck · 06-05-2011, 01:13 PM

I probably wouldn't expect more than $500-800 for that

Here's what you can get in the Seattle area around that price
