Heres my dads, granted it's a project but it's still a 2wd...

BabyBlue · 02-21-2005, 03:27 AM

I forgot to mention....in Longview here besides my dads.....we have a Teal 71/72 2wd blazer, an orange 72 blazer 2/427, orange 71 2wd Jimmy, orange 71/72 2wd with rally's, orange 71 2wd blazer with a blown motor, and my friend with an orange 71 with a b&m blown 350, and and White 71/72 (forgot which) with a 350 and some 17's....I have pictures of my friends that I need to resize and I will do that later, and I used to have some of the 427 and teal one but lost them when my comp crashed...I'll get some at the next car show.

I'm from Longview. Longview has more than its fair share of 2wd blazers. Someone needs to send one to me in Sacramento so the population is a little more spread out. My friend Brandon had one in Longview but I think he is in Vancouver now.

This truck was pulled out of a field - used as a hunting truck - the custom camo paint was quite a site. I replaced the front clip with one from a truck - looked like a tree had jumped in front of it when I found it. Factory CST, A/C, PS, PB, tach, 4 spd, & tinted glass. Now collecting parts to put it all back together and hope to have it on the road this summer.

BabyBlue, welcome to the board. Sounds like you have half the 2wd Blazers in the Pacific NW. Definately get some pictures when you get a chance. Ya want to trade any of those for a lifted '69?

lol....I don't because I don't own a 67-72 blazer....and all the other guys pretty much baby theirs so I really doubt it, my friend ryan changes his mind like the weather, one day he wants to sell the next he doesn't. He's kind of a 2wd guy though, both blazers are over 10k though if someone were to offer him money.

Back when I bought mine in 78,Longview and Portland Wa.were the places to find them.

Mr T · 02-26-2008, 11:05 AM

Nope, your not seeing things, here is a pic of my 4wd "GQ" and below
it is the 72 2wd frame I bought in FL. (Build thread is coming soon)

bouncytruck · 02-21-2005, 07:17 PM

Both of those look nice! That orange one is a beauty. I've got to figure out how to convince my wife I need another Blazer. Did I talk to you via e-mail from Craigslist?

LUV2XCLR8 · 02-21-2005, 07:23 PM

Thanks luv2xclr8....and bouncy, I believe we did talk before because I did/do have an ad for 69-72 2wd blazer on craigslist.

**lolife99** · 02-21-2005, 10:48 PM

Welcom from Missouri! Nice looking stuff there.

71swb4x4 · 04-09-2005, 09:34 PM

Big Block - that looks like one heck of a find. Keep us posted on your progress.

Big Block · 04-10-2005, 08:43 PM

71swb4x4 The pictures make it look better than it is. Body is rough, but it has some nice options. It really needs a frame off, can't do it now. I just want to get it on the road and enjoy for a while. By the way I sold my orange 71 2wd jimmy to a friend about 2 years ago. He is working on it now. I wish I would have kept it but I found another project at that time. B.B.

Livrat · 04-11-2005, 02:27 AM

I dug through my archives and found some pics of 2WD Blazers that I used to own.. does that count??

Livrat · 04-11-2005, 02:28 AM

More......

Livrat · 04-11-2005, 02:29 AM

last one....

**raggedjim** · 04-22-2005, 04:36 PM

Livrat, how many have you had?!?

I thought I was bad...

Rg

*bisquik65* · 04-22-2005, 06:43 PM

I have had 4 ,only one 70 2wd left..the others were parts and were all wrecked years ago..One was a 2wd 1970 Jimmy ,I know thats a rare one,frame was killed on it..Hit a tree dead center at 100+ mph...in 1984

Livrat · 04-23-2005, 11:48 AM

raggedjim.. I have had 8 2WD Blazers/Jimmy's in the last 20 years.. and over 400 67 - 72 trucks..

Marken Perf · 05-07-2005, 08:05 PM

I just bought another 72, going to sell the dissasembled 71 and the cali tub

smbrouss70 · 06-02-2005, 01:52 AM

I am happy to say that I finally have one, and it only took me 15 years. I don't think it counts towards the total number though because I just bought it off of 71BB_LWB (Page 4, post #96.) It is just a tub with a 2wd VIN and title, but I have acquired a 4x4 frame and am going to start converting it over to 2wd this weekend (weather permitting)
