Me too.

What kind of shape does it need to be in. I know of one in Jacksonville, Ar. It is complete minus the engine. Let me know if you are interested in it or not. I believe it is a 71 model and it is a 4x4. I also know where ther is just tub, with no frame.

krue · 08-25-2003, 11:42 PM

I might be, crew dawg PM with some details if you can.

bouncytruck · 08-26-2003, 10:56 AM

Sounds like it is time to start looking out west and have it shipped...

1970blazin · 08-26-2003, 01:17 PM

I'm with bouncytruck. These blazers (especially 4X4) are pretty easy to find in the Northwest or California. There are companies that ship for not too much money. I saw a guy that got a 4x4 blazer with a 4" lift shipped to Long Island or something like that for only about $1000.00- It might be worth it. I know it is scary to buy something unseen, but pictures and a honest guy can make the deal! I saw my blazer online and talked to the guy (who lived in Hawaii) and got the money- drove to Oregon, paid his daughter and took the blazer home. Easy as that!!! Good Luck!

bouncytruck · 08-26-2003, 03:59 PM

Also, there is a good chance there will be a board member near by willing to see if a blazer is worth the asking price...

2wdBlazer · 08-26-2003, 04:16 PM

I know personally $1,000 shipping is not in my budget. I have a $4K max budget and I would rather wait for the right $4K truck closer than pay $3K for one in Washington + $1K to ship + $$$??? whatever it would cost to make it a better truck. Just my logic. I feel that shipping money could be used in a better way.

orangeuavol · 08-26-2003, 07:48 PM

thanks for the replies. I have notice that there many more out west, I just can't justify that far of a trip now. I'm looking for a good solid rolling chasis, complete with or with out engine.

72beast · 08-29-2003, 12:43 AM

Holy old post Batman.

**special-K** · 08-07-2005, 09:16 AM

$1,000 spent on shipping is a bargain compared to many thousand to repair rust(and hope it stays gone).I`ve got two in MD.I wouldn`t make more than a trail-rig out of either one.If you do find a rust-free one on the East Coast,it won`t be $3-4K.I buy a 35 year old vehicle for the body, rebuild the mechanicals and do the cosmetics.

Here`s one near me for sale.I can check it out if you want.
