Rough 72 Blazer - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72Bob · 12-13-2004, 09:14 PM

Some pictures of my 72 Blazer 4x4. The price was right. Free, but what a mess.

I havn't decided what to do with it yet?

Note to Leroy: Bring some beer over and help me decide.

somebody had to get rid of it by the end of the year....no more room for calenders

:p

Huck · 12-13-2004, 09:53 PM

Don't see much rust!

bouncytruck · 12-13-2004, 10:35 PM

Turn it into a serious off-road rig. Yank the top, drop in a big block, put in a full cage and don't worry about the body damage.

donkey69 · 12-13-2004, 11:58 PM

It's got potential!

JayDubBlazer · 12-14-2004, 12:14 AM

it is freaking sweet for the price. Not to mention you got a sturdy front bumper. I also like the abundace of calenders on the glove box.

*dtlilly* · 12-14-2004, 05:58 AM

Make a rock crawler or mud rig out of it.

71swb4x4 · 12-14-2004, 09:17 AM

Is that a rock chip I see in the windshield? You should get that fixed before it turns into a crack.

**special-K** · 12-14-2004, 09:23 AM

You can always trailer it to shows.

Huck · 12-14-2004, 09:35 AM

Honestly, it has a whole lot more metal on it then the last two we towed home!! When we pulled the tops, the sides fell down!!hehehe

**raggedjim** · 12-14-2004, 09:43 AM

Huck!!?! Are you talking smack about the Blazer ya'll got from me? Why I aughta...

*72CSTC5* · 12-14-2004, 12:07 PM

Give it a bath first. Powerwash it inside and out and then send us some pictures and we will tell you what to do with it.

72Bob · 12-14-2004, 12:24 PM

Thanks for all the encouragment.

It's fairly complete, missing the motor, radiator, gas tank and dash bezzel.

So it must have had a 383 stroker, aluminum radiator, 33 gallon tank, and a tach dash.

Anybody need a Woods Loggin girley calander from 1983?

Ebay it, it could be worth a fortune

FRENCHBLUE72 · 12-15-2004, 10:11 PM

Pretty rough but can beat it for the price...

red71cheyenne · 12-24-2004, 07:16 PM

Its not too bad Phil. You and Leroy could go rock crawling together in it. Once you get that BB in it that is. Holler if you need anything, Jeff.

72Bob · 12-24-2004, 07:49 PM

The blazer is going to the scrap yard. I am parting it out for parts to a newly aquired 69 Shorty 4x4.

slamd58 · 12-24-2004, 07:59 PM

Guys do you think I can get that one for $20K....haha

Cethern · 12-24-2004, 09:28 PM

71swb4x4 · 12-25-2004, 01:22 AM

I need a few parts. I will PM you.

69TowRig · 01-16-2005, 03:26 AM

PM'ed you about the windshield frame. Am in desperate need of one for my '69.

LUV2XCLR8 · 01-16-2005, 09:45 AM

IT'S A LONG SHOT I KNOW

Bump. Seems he is not taking e-mails and has not seen his PMs either. Hoping he will soon!

71swb4x4 · 01-22-2005, 12:04 PM
