Finally Bought A Blazer!!!!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**BAD4X4** · 03-12-2007, 10:24 PM

Well after driving over 850 miles and going through 2 states, and looking at 6 of them this saturday. This is what we brought back on the trailer. It even matches my k-20. So yes you guys are right, I have a list of things I need for it already. Here are some pics.

Blizz · 03-12-2007, 10:35 PM

wow...that looks great. what's the interior look like? how much?

**BAD4X4** · 03-12-2007, 10:42 PM

Interior is all stock but the front seats I think are s-10 buckets. I need a rear seat for it and carpet. It also has new mildly built 350 and new turbo 350. I paid $3000 for it. I think I got a deal. The tub is rust free too. I want to put a 6"lift and I have some 15x10 truck ralleys I had for another truck on it.

Critter · 03-12-2007, 10:46 PM

Man That Looks Like A Nice Score!!! I Think You Stole It For $3k

Jtrux · 03-12-2007, 10:49 PM

Yeah you definitely stole that one, go back and give him some more money

. I paid that for mine and it basically sat for a year and a half waiting for parts to get it running.

Blizz · 03-12-2007, 11:18 PM

i paid a lot more than that for mine and mine has a boatload of rust.

killer71 · 03-12-2007, 11:31 PM

3grand+0rust=1 lucky fellal! Enjoy!

ABLAZN · 03-13-2007, 12:13 AM

Dang it, you beat to that one. I saw it on craigslist myself and knew she was priced too low to last. I can't believe that you talked them down another $500. How do you even sleep at night knowing you stole it.

Any way

I guess I will get over not getting this one since I test drove what looks like my next Blazer today, and it is a steal too.

Chevyman63 · 03-13-2007, 05:13 AM

Wow...Great deal! Congrats!

TRUCKER-TRUCKIN' · 03-13-2007, 05:20 AM

Sweet buy!

vtblazer · 03-13-2007, 05:23 AM

**BAD4X4** · 03-13-2007, 05:23 PM

ABLAZN - Of course I talked him down another $500 did I mentian I drove over 800 miles at $3 a gallon....
