SHORT BED IS 115" WHEEL BASE

Go to the 67-72 parts bard and do a search. I think two different folks have frames for sale. One is VTBLAZER, he's in VT. the other I don't recall but I think he is in TX. Might be too far to travel but it's a start.

You might try filling out your profile so we know were your from. As has been stated several thousand times before, someone might live right around the corner from you that can help.

Oh, that is a long corner away. But you never know. Try posting a WLB on the 67-72 board. Who knows, someone may know someone that knows someone etc etc. I know I've seen Alaska as home for someone. Good Luck!

Only way you're getting a NEW frame to a '72 Blazer is with a WayBack machine!

I saw a post a couple of days ago from a guy selling a frame he'd stripped, blasted and repainted. That's about as close as you're going to get, I think.

Here is the link to the other frame, a 72 from TX
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s....php3?t=151269

I know its far but may be the only way to get a frame.
