Bye Bye blazers...
Met another board member yesterday. 72 bbblazer. ( brad) Came to look at a couple of blazers of mine so i sent them home with him. He and his dad came this morning to pick them up. Hopefully they will find some new life as i haven't done much with them for awhile. Its too bad minnesota is so hard on sheetmetal. Enjoy the pics.

Wow, that's some serious rust. Hopefully they get well taken care of.

Re: Bye Bye blazers...
When I see rust like that makes me glad that I live in florida, we dont see rust like that around here.
It is great to see them have a second chance..

At least they went to someone that will give them the help they deserve.

Re: Bye Bye blazers...
That Z71 has got about all it can handle pulling that trailer loaded down with those blazers. Congrats on selling them.

Re: Bye Bye blazers...
Do you happen to have any extra single wall tops that have been left orphaned by a rusted out Blazer?

Re: Bye Bye blazers...
Eric,
What's the matter with you selling things? Dont you know your other trucks are going to get lonely?! I had a Blazer and a Jimmy leave my house a few years ago:

Re: Bye Bye blazers...
I'll second the notion of needing a single walled top?? I know MN is a ways away, but anyone reading this, single wall close to AZ??
