Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

The red one above from Texas was for sale in Washington about a year ago for $12,000 he must have bought it.

Everything is for sale at the right price.

Nice!

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

I'd actually like to see a thread titled "How much these Blazers sold for", as apparently my Blazer isn't worth much near this much. Came to my senses and it's not for sale anymore, but still....

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

There worth as much as someone is Willing to Pay. I've had guys offer me five grand before and mines not in great shape. Some people just want them so bad that it Doesn't Matter the Price Or Work needed done. Our trucks are getting more expensive as they are gettin more scarce. Start a thread on this subject. People can start adding theirs to that too. Glad you didn't Sell. I sure You Are too. I don't ever see me getting Rid Of Mine. 15 years and hopefully God willing another 30 with my blazer.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

I think they are getting more and more popular to have because they are getting rare. Even 4wd ones.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

Is it too much to ask for a solid 2wd 350/350 with a good top and decent paint/interior for $12500? ;)

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

... depends, if I'm BUYIN' $12,500 is a LOT, if I'm SELLIN', $12,500's not nearly enough;)


I like my '72 a lot but I'd trade it for the right '60's GM convertible car.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

I don't think that is out of line. I paid less for mine, but you saw my crappy interior at CTC. I almost have the difference in price wrapped up in my new interior that I still have to put in.

Add in the cost of suspension, brakes, engine & trans repairs, etc. (if they are all fresh rebuilds) and the cost just goes up from there. From April (when I bought mine) to October, I'm betting that I more than doubled the cost of my Blazer just getting it ready for CTC, and I'm still not finished with it. You know as well as I do, things get expensive QUICK!

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

Is it sacrilege to just remove the front suspension from a 4x4 and replace it with stock A-Arm type suspension? Are the people looking for 2wd Blazers and Jimmy's only looking for original 2wd's? Doesn't look like it would be that hard to do.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

its not sacrilege, its just about numbers and rarity. i have a 'hybrid' blazer which is a 4x4 vin tub but on a factory 2wd frame.

consider that in 1972 they made 44,266 4x4's and only 3,357 4x2's, so converting a 4wd makes sense if you really want a 2wd. i personally would not pay a premium for a converted blazer but some might.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

Actually a lot of people have done that. I had an extra 71 blazer that I sold after I took what I needed off of it and almost everyone that looked at it was going to convert it to two wheel drive. Back then I thought they were crazy, the only reason I bought mine was because it was a 4x4. But now that I know how few 2 wheel drives they made I can kinda understand why they would want to do that.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

$11gs!! Haha that dude must have some good crack. Mismatched body/frame with a title which may or may not match the vin plate & it really needs work. I can get a mint/restored 2wd all original for $17gs lol

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

Hey dubds10, if you aren't going to buy that mint/restored 2wd do think I could get the guys number?

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

I wanted to but we bought the '57 GMC instead as my fiancee doesn't love the blazers like me. There was also a restored pink 2wd original for $12gs in WA almost for the entire year. No idea why neither 2wd K5 sold asap. The green original mint one I think may have finally sold or they took it off CL. It was gorgeous & I'm sure some eastern guys would've paid big bucks for it too. I'll see if I can find it and post it.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

If that guy gets 11g for his, i will gladly sell mine for that as well!

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

How about $1000 tomorrow Ivan? Haha just forget the second "1". I found a 2wd I may be able to get $1-2000 running, possibly driving. Gonna check on it if it's still available.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

Nice to know I am not the only "Hybrid" out there :metal:

It took me years to find an unmolested 2wd Chassis,
then of course I did a complete makeover on her. :lol:

She even had the factory gov locker in the rear :smoke:

Not mine, but I thought this was just purchased by a board memeber??

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

Yep, and that is a very nice Blazer! Surprised to see it for sale so soon.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

It really is nice for sure, Its one of the reasons I have a white one.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread
 

Originally built by a board member, he sold it and then another board member just bought it. Sure wish I had and extra $30K laying around.
