4,935 were produced in 1969. All were 4wd. In 1970 they produced 11,527 Blazers which included both 2wd and 4wd. 1970 also saw the introduction of the Jimmy in both 2 & 4wd.

17,220 Blazers were produced in 1971 and 44,266 in 1972.

LUV has the info on how many were 2wd and 4wd for each year.

2WD Blazers for 70 were 815 or at least that is one of the # I have seen.

985 according to the Red Book.

I'd be interested to see how many 2wd's over all were made. Hopefully when Craig sees this he'll chime in.

Craig can't resist posting - just look how many posts he has!

I should just call him at work and ask him something like that

The look on his face would be classic

Thats what I got too. I have not seen any numbers on the 2wd Jimmys though. So I am curious if those are the same, less, or more that were built.

bouncytruck · 03-01-2007, 01:21 PM

Looks like my numbers didn't include the 2wds...

bouncytruck · 03-01-2007, 02:25 PM

Far less Jimmys were built. My understanding was it was approx 10%-20% of the total Blazer numbers.

Chris27 · 03-01-2007, 07:34 PM

What's the deal with the "KE" & "CE" for the '70 models?

1969k10stepside · 03-01-2007, 07:38 PM

2 wheel drive is "C"
4 wheel drive is "K"
"E" means it had a V-8
