Nice truck.

I'd be very wary of those tires though. Looks like they have been in the UV and underinflated and in a humid place for 10+ years.

Re: Need some Advice on a 72 Blazer

It looks to be a good project vehicle. It appears straight. All of them are worth fixing if ... not too rusted: floors, doors, rockers, fenders. It looks OK from the pictures. Then get it running and do a compression test. All the cylinders should be within 10% of each other. Drain all the fluids, look for milky oil, oily coolant, shiny specs in the transmission fluid. I think its worth about $2500.00. If you buy it be sure to immediately replace all the fluids including brake fluid and DO NOT run on those old tires. Good luck. My Blazer was way worse than this one.
