2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread - Page 11 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

11K can get you a lot more than that. For $7K more you could have a completed rig like http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/1050070425.html

or start with as much of a project for $3,500 http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/1059456958.html

This one's nice too

I agree 100% with you guys alot of $$ with nothing more than a clean start that i would still want to go through everything.

Otsa580 · 03-04-2009, 04:11 PM

Dumb question: how much better do the 2wd blazers ride than 4wd? I have only owned/rode in 4wd blazers/trucks. I really don't need 4wd year round and would like to find a 2wd.

I'm looking for a 2wd blazer now....so I'll subscribe and post up those that are too far away or too expensive for me

VA72C10 · 03-11-2009, 10:12 PM

do you guys use craigshelper? If so, any tips? I've got some good searches set up on ebay but they don't translate to craigshelper.

VA72C10 · 03-13-2009, 11:05 AM

Wow, that top one sounds like a deal for 12K....I'm guessing it's not as nice as it seems in person for that price (ie. hacked drop job and bondo under paint....but who knows...seems like a really good deal if it's nice)

bouncytruck · 03-14-2009, 12:05 AM

Yeah, it looks like it's a good deal to me too. I'm guessing he price is lower because it's a converted 4wd.

I can't link this # attached for some reason, but it's still
showing up in "My Ebay" as active? #230330853474

bouncytruck · 03-15-2009, 11:03 AM

I've been having trouble linking ebay auctions lately too. Anyway, that Blue one has been listed at least 3 times before. It looks nice!

ANTHONY67 · 03-15-2009, 11:11 PM

I email him and got more pics it looks better in that pic

VA72C10 · 03-17-2009, 12:42 AM

I am definitely in the market for a 2wd and don't care if it's a converted 4wd as that should keep the cost down of course...Let me know if you guys find anything on the east coast. I check craigshelper, ebay, etc weekly at least and daily most of the time...but always seem to miss something.

bagged74 · 03-24-2009, 01:29 PM

heres one:
http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/cto/1085719721.html

VA72C10 · 03-24-2009, 01:50 PM

Thanks...any chance you've seen that one...looks like it would be pretty rough especially at that price...but if it's decent, It'd be worth shipping.

Honestly I am leaning towards a 4wd to convert now...for some of the reasons I read in your thread (trailing arms having to be modded, etc.) Plus, the converted 4wd w/ a dropmember and notch would go a little lower than a 2wd from what I have been told.

PROJECTT72 · 04-07-2009, 12:49 PM

**lks dcvn** · 04-07-2009, 04:29 PM

lindsey · 04-07-2009, 11:41 PM

Ive started looking for a 2wd or even a clean 4wd to convert. If anything comes up in AZ I would like to see it. I will keep my eye on this thread.
