Traded my 2wd blazer for two trucks

I think you did OK. Blazers are rare, but you got two trucks (hopefully two titles) and lots and lots of parts.

If you short bed cab matches the frame and the title, and if that cab is solid, you got a lot to work with.

Especially if the extra beside goes with the SWB. This ought to keep you busy for awhile! LOL

Good trade, that swb could be big money if done up right

Dajn... Like wtf? Back off. They're his projects and will probably end up nicer than yours.

Was this blazer on Sac CL the other day? I think I saw it.

Re: Traded my 2wd blazer for two trucks

Boy as far as I'm concerned that would be a tuff trade, you got a lot of potential there but that Blazer is something I've always wanted, I would say you didn't hurt your self too bad maybe not at all. What overall shape was the Blazer in? I mean it's all what you want.

Re: Traded my 2wd blazer for two trucks

The only reason I got rid of the blazer was because it didn't have a title it had bill of sale when I got it, the two trucks have clean Cali titles, the plan is take the white 69 cab and clip and put it on the shortbed frame. The blazer was cool and all but I had no title for it. And yes now it's on C/L.

Re: Traded my 2wd blazer for two trucks

The blazer needed a lot of work, it was basically picked from all of it's parts. Just a bare shell with a top, and a 6 inch lift. I did the drop on it and put in some seats.

Re: Traded my 2wd blazer for two trucks

I liked the blazer but being in CA and the titles you definitely won. It's getting harder to get titles everywhere.

Yes I was drunk when I posted, and I am drunk now. Don't take it seriously. Goodluck with your build. Swb or lwb. You can't go wrong either way

Are you happy? Then the trade was perfect! Don't second guess your decision, you did just fine! You can build a couple of nice trucks with all those parts. Don't let anyone tell you different!
