Re: Good Deal ?

without commenting on the price because overall it looks pretty decent, here is what I see:

rust bubble in pasenger door
rust in passenger rocker
bent and crooked front bumper (front frame horn could be bent)
passenger v-8/350 badge is crooked?
tailgate has holes for something, 3 rows of them?
cigarette lighter? not sure if blazers were dif then the trucks
is that a sticker on the top of drivers door by the glass?


overall it appears to be in very original condition which could add value

Re: Good Deal ?

the hood doesn't sit so well either...might just need adjustment, in which case the owner should have addressed that before posting. also he didn't bother to clean up the bed area before taking pics...makes you wonder where else he cut corners to try and get rid of this ride. and the rust on the rocker panel is a huge red flag for me. in my opinion it is way over-priced for the condition it is in.

Re: Good Deal ?

I like it! I would not sell my DD Not quite as good as this one for less than 10k, but part of that is sentimental value. I personally think you might be able to find one in that condition for about 2-5 less if you look around. I have seen some really nice ones on here for sale for less. Just depends on what your looking for!!! But overall nice blazer

Re: Good Deal ?

Since it's a Blazer I would want detailed pictures of the under side.

We have all been down the road of "Well I didn't see any rust?"

Re: Good Deal ?

Also it has a newer front end for disk brakes but it still has the power drum master and prop valve. Mine was like that when I bought it brakes were soft. Also the lines are different when you swap the correct master and prop valve.
It has some dents on the drivers door inside which means the body does or did before it was fixed sag when the top was off. The doors hang and you have to throw a shoulder in them to get them to open. Same as others have stated on price

Re: Good Deal ?

I know it's in Wyoming....but it looks like a good deal.

If I could sneak it past the wife....I'd buy it!

Re: Good Deal ?

Lufkin is in East Texas (think Louisiana's climate) for those of you out in internet land. I'm betting there was some significant rust gremlins hiding assuming it had been there for any length of time, but maybe I'm wrong. Does anyone know if the buyer is on this forum???
