75??? Blazer for sale on Ebay

Maybe I'm looking a little too closely, but there is a Blazer on Ebay that just doesn't add up.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ayphotohosting

It's listed as a '75, but it has full door frames and a half top.

The VIN no. indicates it's a GMC not a Chevrolet.

The VIN no. also indicates it's a '74, not '75. This doesn't coincide with the half top.

The VIN no. indicates a correct '73-'75 'Y' engine code.

Wow, I can't figure this one out!
Greg.

Sure does look like a 79 to me. 78 was the first year for a gas door and the head light bezels are 79. A 79 body does not fit on a 75 frame without lots of body lift or majot floor reconstruction. That truck does not appear to have a body lift.

I smell fraud. I bet the vin has been swapped to avoid emmsions testing or worse it was a stolen vehicle. Report it to Ebay as fraud.
