72, 2wd blazer
hey guys, this is my 72 factory 2wd blazer. As far as I can tell it has had one re-paint (exterior only) I believe that it has about 71,000 original miles. I cannot confirm this, but the interior is stock/original and the undercarriage is just way too clean to be a 170,000 mile truck.
A good friend of mine brought the truck out of North Dakota in 2002. He installed 2-1/2 drop spindles in the front and 4" drop coils in the rear with rally wheels (yuck on the rallies). in Five years he put less than 4000 miles on her.
I bought her in the summer of 07. the first thing I did was ditch the rallies and added some 20/22's. Then I installed a cpp bolt-in notch with 6" springs/2" blocks. Up front I added 3' drop coils (with one loop cut off) I love the way it rides. Doesn't bottom out at all. And I drive the wheels off her. I also yanked the 307 in favor of a mildly built 350. Toying with the idea dropping in a bigblock though.
Here are some pic's. As purchased, before drop, and current.
