Rare 1972 Chevy Blazer??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

decker34 · 03-10-2016, 02:40 PM

Hi everyone! Hey I have a 1972 Chevy Blazer that I put up for sale on eBay and I just got a call from a nice guy that told me that my truck was very rare? I own a restoration shop but we mainly do early land cruisers and first gen broncos... therefore I am not that familiar with the options and such on these blazers. It is on eBay and I put it at a no reserve so it will sell.

It is from Wyoming so the frame is solid but there is some rust in the typical areas, however the bottom of the doors are solid. I appreciate any input.

He said he had never seen a Skid plate option on the spid and that the pare wheel holder was a rare option?

Thanks again!

here is the link to the eBay add with all of the pics.

IIRC the skid plate was a fairly common option...the spare tire bracket was a really common piece........sorry....nothing rare....
except what are those insulated lines underneath....?????

I would say its coolant lines to an aux. heater under the rear seat to heat the back half of the cabin. Looks like the seat had to be raised with lumber to allow the heater to fit under the seat

Also,
Its nice to see this truck selling for at least $6600. I didn't pay near that for mine, but I do know they are getting harder to find in original paint....

The sliding windows on the top are the only rare item I see.

Ok, thanks everyone for your help and input. I appreciate it very much!

I think the rare part is finding a first gen blazer in this kind of original, unmolested condition these days. I see you just registered March of 16, I think this posted thread is against the rules here. Mel

I like that Blazer.
The yellow and white truck you had a few months ago was really cool too. That one was my favorite color combo.

Nothing super rare, except it's complete lol But damn that price is high already. I'm waffling on a restored (no to original) one for $12-15g let alone paying nearly $7g for one that needs full restore haha You're doing good on ebay so hopefully the buyer comes through in the end.
