I finally got my 2wd
I've known about this blazer for almost 2 years now. It was sitting in a farmers grove along a highway about 35 miles north of me. I stopped to ask about it and it was a 72 CST 2wd. The body is shot. The only useable panel is the hood, and I'm not positive about that. I don't know if the top will be useable either. It has boards bolted to it for a red neck cargo rack, which flattened it in those areas. The hatch is busted a bit, but I've seen worse and might try to fix it. The owner bought it for parts years ago, pulled the motor for another truck and it sat. The rear end was a posi and he wanted that and the front suspension for a 5 lug and disk conversion on a 68 C-10 he has. I tried to talk him out of that and sell the whole thing to me, but he wouldn't give in. So anyway, I finally got it, without the front and rear suspension, for $150. All I want is the frame and hood and a few bits and pieces, the rest will be parted out as much as possible and the rest will be scrapped. If I can sell $150 worth of parts, I have a free frame for the rust free tub I got from AZ. I'll start a build thread for this when the time comes.
