Need opinions on this Blazer, please

hey guys, I'm looking to possibly get back into a 1st. Gen. S-10 Blazer (2dr/2wd) & just came across this:

I love the fact that it looks well taken care of & is owned by the same person for 20+ years. I also like that the trans is rebuilt. The interior seems pretty clean as well. I guess the only thing that would concern me is the mileage, although I know these engines can last much longer. I'm just wondering what you folks think about it, & what would be a fair offer based upon your observations? I'm looking for a reliable daily driver that's not extremely modified, to not only take me around town but also to relieve some stress (mileage) from our 2012 Pilot.



Ironically, I bought an '88 back in 2007 from the Atlanta area. I traded it in '08 and now kinda wish I still had it ....so it's been about 5 years since I was in the market. I gave $3k for it. It had one repaint, a near perfect interior, 17" wheels, 3/3 drop, billet grille, etc. It also had the 4.3/700R combo with 170k+ original miles. Unfortunately, I unexpectedly had to rebuild the trans. shortly after buying. But it was pretty reliable for the year I owned, & it was no doubt one of the cleanest I've ever seen. I only mention this because it's always hard not to compare everything else to what I had. I'm an enthusiast who takes pride in clean automobiles. Pictures are in my Sig for those interested in the old '88.


thanks for any opinions/input!
