Sold my Blazer on Craigslist.

My non A/C Blazer has sold on craigslist. It was only listed for an hour before the Buyer contacted me and money was exchanged. Amazing! I really want to get a 67-72 Swb Truck. Got tired of off loading the back seat and taking off the top to load up the Dirtbikes. Hopefully an Original A/C Big Block Blazer is in My future. Now What to do with all the Part's I've been purchasing Latley for the Blazer?

Sounds like you must have sold it too cheap!

You know what to do with the extra parts. Give us all a list on the parts board.

Re: Sold my Blazer on Craigslist.

Yeah, sounds like he got a good deal! Sometimes though it is better to sell quick and cheap than to wait around for a real long time trying to get more money. Good luck on your next project and keep us updated!

Re: Sold my Blazer on Craigslist.

Ya should have bought a trailer for the dirt bikes instead.

Are there many Blazers on the islands? I would think they are fairly hard to come by over there.

I know where to find two at the moment but they are in fix er up status and who know's if their even for sale.
One was recently in the local buy and sell for $13,900 no top, no A/c & lifted.
I was Thinking that Baby blue A/c Neveda blazer in the 67-72 for sell here on this board was priced right and very solid looking. I will probably have to import from Neveda or Arizona if I ever get serious about another early Blazer.

Re: Sold my Blazer on Craigslist.

I need a truck, The Blazer was a fun toy but not suiting my working needs.
If it would have been an original A/C Blazer then I probably would have kept it. Those long rides in traffic with Sun,Sweat and Exhaust fumes was a killer.
The new owner will take her to the next level she deserved to go too, A place I could never have taken her.

That's the truck he pulled up in, Very healthy sounding 454, I thought it was an 80's Blazer? I have a lot to learn about Chevy's. Very nice guy who Knew what he wanted when he saw it. I can't help but think after reading his description on his E-bay AD "Why in the world would he want my Blazer, His seems so much more creature comfortable and powerful".

Re: Sold my Blazer on Craigslist.

I have the best of both a 71GMC K1500 SWB and a 70K5, It can be a PITA trying to use a Blazer or Bronco (speaking from experience) like you would a truck so I can see where your coming from. Hopefully the new owner will stay in contact with you so you can see what he is doing to it.

Chevy added the perminent half top after '75. This one has a later model front end, which is probably why you thought it was an '80s Blazer.

Re: Sold my Blazer on Craigslist.

Man,sorry you had to sell it.I couldn`t imagine living over there and not having something like a Blazer.It wouldn`t be black,though.IMO,loading bikes into a truck is a PITA.Trailers are the way to go,much lower,unhook,bye bye.I` sure it sold so fast because of you both being in Hawaii.Good luck on getting the truck.
