Finally Bought A Blazer!!!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**BAD4X4** · 03-12-2007, 10:24 PM

Well after driving over 850 miles and going through 2 states, and looking at 6 of them this saturday. This is what we brought back on the trailer. It even matches my k-20. So yes you guys are right, I have a list of things I need for it already. Here are some pics.

Blizz · 03-12-2007, 10:35 PM

wow...that looks great. what's the interior look like? how much?

**BAD4X4** · 03-12-2007, 10:42 PM

Interior is all stock but the front seats I think are s-10 buckets. I need a rear seat for it and carpet. It also has new mildly built 350 and new turbo 350. I paid $3000 for it. I think I got a deal. The tub is rust free too. I want to put a 6"lift and I have some 15x10 truck ralleys I had for another truck on it.

Critter · 03-12-2007, 10:46 PM

Man That Looks Like A Nice Score!!! I Think You Stole It For $3k

Jtrux · 03-12-2007, 10:49 PM

Yeah you definitely stole that one, go back and give him some more money

. I paid that for mine and it basically sat for a year and a half waiting for parts to get it running.

Blizz · 03-12-2007, 11:18 PM

i paid a lot more than that for mine and mine has a boatload of rust.

killer71 · 03-12-2007, 11:31 PM

3grand+0rust=1 lucky fellal! Enjoy!

ABLAZN · 03-13-2007, 12:13 AM

Dang it, you beat to that one. I saw it on craigslist myself and knew she was priced too low to last. I can't believe that you talked them down another $500. How do you even sleep at night knowing you stole it.

Any way

I guess I will get over not getting this one since I test drove what looks like my next Blazer today, and it is a steal too.

Chevyman63 · 03-13-2007, 05:13 AM

Wow...Great deal! Congrats!

vtblazer · 03-13-2007, 05:23 AM

Looks amazing.

You guys on the left coast kill me..."looked at 6 on Saturday"

I know. I have only ever seen one 1st generation Blazer on the east coast. It was in Maryland during at a car show. I have seen three others. One in California and two in Utah I bought the one I saw in California.

Nice truck BAD4X4. Bend, Oregon is a nice town. Do you know about the gas station where all the cute girls come out and pump your gas and clean your windshield? It was like the Hooters of gas stations. I have never seen such a thing in my life. I loved it. Great idea. I would pay an extra $1 per gallon to go there.

TRUCKER-TRUCKIN' · 03-13-2007, 05:20 AM

Sweet buy!

**special-K** · 03-13-2007, 07:00 AM

NTR72GMC · 03-13-2007, 10:27 AM

**BAD4X4** · 03-13-2007, 05:23 PM

ABLAZN - Of course I talked him down another $500 did I mentian I drove over 800 miles at $3 a gallon....
