New from Tucson 1st gen blazer
I just joined, this looks like a very helpful community from just lurking. I just bought a 72 blazer off ebay and am awaiting the transport company to pick it up and bring it to me.
It has 35's, a 4" suspension lift, 4 speed manual, 350, and a fresh bright yellow paint job. I don't know a lot about the history of the vehicle, but most of the rust has been repaired and it needs some minor things. I plan on keeping it topless and start doing some off-roading. Once I can get a little confidence in the mechanical ability of the truck. I had a 74 in high school so I'm familiar with blazers in general and some of the issues. I've got a decent workshop and garage, but not a lot of knowledge. |
