Vehicle Detail
My father was the second owner of this truck, he bought it around 1974-75. He kept it until '83 when he traded it in on another Blazer. After agonizing about it for a week, Dad went back to the dealer and bought it back. Dad was a shade tree mechanic, and loved and cared for this truck. It's been in retirement for about 10 years, he'd take it out around the neighborhood a couple of times a month until he died a year ago. It's been sitting since. This is a 40 year old truck that has never seen the inside of a garage and has every bit of the condition issues you'd expect. It's more or less the most basic model that Chevy offered. 307 V8, 3 Speed Manual, no air conditioning or comfort options. The top has never been off. The odometer shows 36K, but I believe that it's rolled over at least twice. You could make that more like 236K The Blazer is rough, it'll never be a show truck. But with some work it can bring somebody the joy that it's brought my family for forty years. Local pickup, or buyer arranges delivery.
