Too bad they didn't use oem style seat upholstery and door panels.
Still nice.

Hope he gets what he wants for it.

Trucks like this confuse me. When going through all the effort, time and money to redo a truck then not use year correct parts. ??

**truckster** · 02-22-2015, 11:40 PM

I guess "all stock" means different things to different people. That's a very nice Blazer, but that's also a very nice pile of cash he's asking for it.

If that Blazer was equipped with the correct restoration parts Its not a bad price for a frame off resto... I'm sure he would be a little nego.. If I bought it the entire interior would have to e swapped out..

It's stock, just not all factory. It's built for the owner's personal taste, which is very good IMO. But, now it's time to sell. If it was restored to sell, then I agree using non-original color and upholstery was not the smart thing to do. I never had the discipline to stay 100% stock on anything for myself. I'm more into something like this, close enough to not detract from it's origins (appears as could be factory), yet no other like it.

good point!

That is very nice but not correct. He will still get decent money for it. Probably not asking price at least not from a knowledgeable blazer guy.

I agree he made it his way and now it's time to sell .He now will pay a small price for not doing it correct... The bummer is he probally paid the same amount to do it his way... But it still is a sweet ride any way you look at it

Chulisohombre · 02-23-2015, 09:10 PM

It's like the guys that get a 72 and swap Out to a earlier front clip. I like the look but on resale it's not correct. He did a awesome job. But it's like adding a lift and big tires and trying to sell it as a stock truck.

**special-K** · 02-23-2015, 10:48 PM

Unless it goes to Barrett-Jackson

Just gotta find the right buyer and this is very likeable. Do LSX swaps kill a truck's value? Plenty out there just don't care about original. They care about "nice"

Chulisohombre · 02-23-2015, 10:56 PM

Nice is fine for a lot of guys. Line is going to settle for just nice and drivable. But if I was paying real Money for a restored one if want it to be correct. There are s lot of guys on both sides of the aisle on that though. So I'm guessing it will still go For a decent price either way.
