Re: How to buy a Blazer? (Talk the wife into it!)

Keep lookin'. Blazers have a "season" and more come for sale in the spring and summer than the other half of the year.

Also, it's usually cheaper to ship than it is to fix rust.

There were approx 80,000 Blazers produced from 69-72. If you consider how many have met their demise in one way or another, how many are fully restored and how many just aren't for sale (like mine), there are not a whole lot left so it may take some time to find the right one.

As for the wife, they are great family and friends cars. My wife and kids love my truck. On sunny days my kids always want to go for a ride in bouncytruck.
