Whew! I thought you bought a Jaguar! LOL
I could go get one with you, but of course I would need to keep the 72 Blazer for gas money....

I sure hope you meant two of our years! If so, drop one at my place and I will store it in my barn for free!!!! As long as I can drive it occasionally!

Nope a 91 and a 72............I want the 91 for myself to drive daily. My son-in-law needs the 72. Both are really sweet trucks that have a lot od potential. Now heres a kicker a guy just called me about a 68 stepside with a 427 with no rust. He wants more for it than both of the others but he isnt out of line IMO. he's a little closer too. Now I don't wanna go to work!

Well, that still is cool. Tell us about the 71. That 91 will be cool as a daily driver, with say a 6" lift :-)

6" sounds good with some new PJ's..... The 71 looks to be pretty much stock with a 4 speed and 350. Sheet metal looks very good by the pictures.

Fly there or go greayhound, and get a tow bar/dollie/trailer, and drag one back behinde the other.
Towing with the 72 would be cooler, but towing with the 91 would probably be better. |

Guy emailed me his phone number so gonna call and just see how good they are. He thinks maybe the rear end is about to go out of the 91 but have thought of trying to drive the 72 if this goes through.
