Re: how rare?

If I had to guess I would say a 1970 factory 2 wheel drive blazer.

Re: how rare?

I believe there were less than 1,000 factory two wheel drive blazers built in 1970, thats pretty rare for a chevy; and from what I have seen the factory two wheel drive blazers are desirable. Factory six cylinder trucks/blazers not so much.

I've got a built '68 plus it will be an anniversary when I'm done Plus it has Corvette optioned...

I would say the rarest ones would be with feathers, but I could be wrong

How Bout Mine

1972 K5, with highlander trim, and "Feathers By Chevy" decal package. Dash and doors are uncut, but it does have some rust.

Re: how rare?

I believe that a 70 2wd Jimmy is even rarer than a 70 2wd Blazer.

Re: how rare?

A 1969 2wd would be rear because they didnt make any. I bet you can find someone that says that they have one.
