Anybody looking for a Blazer?

I don't need a project right now, but one of you guys needs to jump on this. Might be a scam, but it feels real.

I'd buy it today but location and lack of information (which may be avail) spook me. PITA logistics but that's what barn finds are made of right?

Re: Anybody looking for a Blazer?

70kGMC just paid a years salary for his so this looks like a bargain to me.

That looks pretty cool, have you gone to look at it? I love the original blue paint and the the white steelies riding on old school bias ply tires. Does it come with the rear seat?

I'm going to look at it this week. Been debating how much body work vs. spending a little more money on another.

I'm pretty sure I saw this Blazer listed on Instagram as well, and it looks like the guy sold it today. Bummer too because I had my eye on it as well.

Re: Anybody looking for a Blazer?

Hi, my name is Sand Wrench, and I have a truck problem. I posted the ad hoping someone from the forum would get it, and then I made it a whole 90 minutes before I broke down and called the guy. I ended up buying it over the phone, and my brother and I drove 800 miles from eastern Kansas to Deadwood over the weekend and drove it back by Sunday night. It turns out that the seller was headed back to Minnesota for the winter, and wanted to get it sold fast. We stopped at Mount Rushmore and Badlands National Park, and drove over 1600 miles in two days! It's a CST Cheyenne package with factory A/C, and it drives great! I'd never driven one with 3.07 gears, and I love how well it gets down the highway without the engine wrapped up. So anyway, I now own 3 project vehicles. I officially have a problem, but it feels like a good problem
