any word?

How much for the electronic speedometer? Don't need the rest of the cluster, just the speedo gauge...

Blazer goes into the shop this weekend for final dismantling.

From there I will do a more thorough inspection of all the underneath/hidden parts that have been requested and post up what's usable and what's not.

Front clip will be off so I can check out the rad support and assoc. parts.

Dash is apart, bezel is good, pad is good, gauges look intact.
Lund visor is in great condition w/all the lights/wiring still intact.

No radio harness. (typical after market hack job)

Tilt works but is pretty loose, has cruise control though.

Tail gate window motor/switch works but the track is off somehow.

Parts I'll be keeping:
Motor and all associated TBI parts, including gas tank.
Keeping the drive train intact for now. (tranny/t-case/rolling chassis)
Steering wheel stays

Hey vt, I found a front grille assembly from a burb in Nebraska on ebay and picked it up. I got it for $140 in about the same condition as yours and then it is gonna cost about $120 shipping the entire setup via UPS oversize. (In case anyone wanted to know what shipping might cost).

It would have been a huge hassle for you anyways.

Even so, I agreed to do it and now I've lost the sale.

The whole reason for the original "checking interest" post was to decide if I wanted to invest in this parts blazer and knowing the front assembly would be sold when I got it, helped alot with that decision.

We can either freight it or do it via greyhound, but I am VERY interested if it is in decent shape.

Finding out you bought the parts off e-bay was a surprise seeing you did offer to buy from me.

Hey Kurt, sorry about the recent dealings, on a side note those wheels are
somewhat desireable, you might wanna put them on Evil Bay to recoup $

Are prices going to be provided sometime soon here...or are we all waiting for the other thread? Quite a few people, including myself, have shown interest in some parts and asked for prices..but nothing has been posted and replies haven't been answered...at least in this thread.

Yes, more of a "what are you looking for" thread than a for sale thread.

Time to do the 'for sale' post I guess.

I do apologize; I honestly wasn't aware that your decision to purchase was based on the interest of others, i.e. me.

It is a very desirable front conversion and shouldn't be difficult to move. I will tell you what though. If you can't move it, I will stand by my word and still buy the setup and move it locally. I was ALWAYS competing with others locally to get that front conversion and I always lost. I just jumped the gun when I saw the setup on ebay and got ahead of myself.

I have complete faith that I can move the setup here and break even even after shipping. If you sell locally, you should be able to get $100 more for it since the buyer won't have to make shipping considerations.

Get it apart, and if it doesn't move locally, I will still buy it.

FYI, the setup will be worth more if you sell it with the fenders and hood if they are in decent shape; The grille setup is good for the 80-88 guys, but the entire front clip is good for the 73-79 guys to get the full update conversion.

The money is gonna be in selling the entire front clip, fender to fender and selling it as a '73-79 Chevy truck 89-91 blazer conversion'. VERY popular and sought after setup.

red, appreciate the good input and offer.
First rate response, that's what makes this board what it is.

I'm in the process of doing a for sale thread, I bet it will sell there.
