Sweet...Bought a 72 Blazer CST from AZ about 30 years ago...'Orche" Did a frame off, and color change..red....Ad was in a paperback car sellers mag....waaaaay before internet..One tiny b/w pic..spoke to the older gent about 20 minutes & sent him a check...$4000. 3 weeks later it arrived..exactly as he described it....I never was able to back out spring bolts from the shackles until I removed them from that Blazer....Rusted bolts?? What the hell is that ! It still needed the rockers though, and the interior was toast...But NO molestation to the dash or any part of the truck....just worn out....A/C was ice cold... and the exhaust manifolds looked impregnated and thin....Sold it to an advertising agency in NYC they used it for a soda commercial they took on the beach out in Montauk..... The guy had his Riva powerboat in the back ground.....I still have the metal dealer plate that was on the tailgate...It was sold new in Laramie....
