Was that in Ohio?

**Gary 70 Jimmy** · 08-14-2008, 09:10 AM

Very few options has a 307 with 4 speed stick utility bucket seats no back seat. It has the stock wheels on it looks like a 2 or 3" body lift. Comes with a set of rally wheel and a back seat and some engine parts out of a 78 blazer. I will try to get it cleaned out today and take some more pictures. The guy said it came from a different state.

**lks dcvn** · 08-14-2008, 09:17 AM

Forgot to add - congrats on your new purchase (and now see what looks to be Texas plates on it).

Nice score! We definitely need to see more pix - when you get a chance.

Dang, looks like a bargain!!! Which transfer case does it have, Dana 20 or NP205?

Eager to see more pics. Please get some pics of the transfer case also when you can.

**Gary 70 Jimmy** · 08-14-2008, 11:54 AM

Pictures of rear floor top and bottom. On the bottom you can see shiny metal where I pulled the under coating off.

Jtrux · 08-14-2008, 11:54 AM

You learn something new everyday, I thought the 307 was only available with the 3 speed.

Jtrux · 08-14-2008, 11:55 AM

Also looks like it has the original radio, cool.

Plans for it?

**Gary 70 Jimmy** · 08-14-2008, 11:57 AM
