Unfortunately for him it is hard to sell a $15,000 truck for $40,000.

JayDubBlazer · 12-12-2004, 03:22 PM

It is a really nice truck thought I could see it going for 20k

**special-K** · 12-12-2004, 03:27 PM

Not a bad price for a couple mint Blazers.

LUV2XCLR8 · 12-12-2004, 03:35 PM

Having 50k Invested Is One Thing, Selling It Is Another Thing

c-1072 · 12-12-2004, 04:13 PM

Why spend that kind of money just to skinp on a 100. doller set of tranny lines they just trew in rubber hose front to trans

7T2 · 12-12-2004, 05:37 PM

40K and no air cleaner? Whatta rip!

bouncytruck · 12-12-2004, 06:53 PM

I'd say $15-20K. Very nice, but not great. I'd expect a little more info in his description for at $40,000 by it now price.

Holly cow, your right. Maybe it's a really bad 2wd conversion.

Leinie · 12-13-2004, 12:34 AM

40K and it doesn't have Air Conditioning. The Exhaust also runs straight out the back so it can get sucked into the truck through the rear hatch and gas the people inside on a long trip

**special-K** · 12-15-2004, 09:25 AM

C`mon,who`s going to ask this guy some questions?Have fun with it.I`m not Ebay registered.

michigank5 · 12-15-2004, 01:51 PM

I sent in the question about the t-case lever, I'll post whatever I get back.

cheyenne10 · 12-15-2004, 02:35 PM

No shift indicator ontop of steering column and shifter looks in strange location for park. I do see front drive shaft and dif. in pics with front leaf springs. Must be something special. Could it be modified with trans/ Tcase shift button on dash like newer vehicles?

MAC67 · 12-15-2004, 02:47 PM

i may just be nit picking here , but in the pic where you see the front diff cover , is the tierod actually bent or is the scratched paint just thowing me off ?

cheyenne10 · 12-15-2004, 04:40 PM

I guess I look at all of our comments as advise to any potential buyers of this truck who may be watching. I think it probably is a very, very nice blazer maybe even worth well over $20K. But again more whats going on. No CST pedal pads? Look at dash needles. Tach looks like camaro version and needle is pointing straight up and key looks off. Gas guage also is way off in left field.

more proof why it would be tough to buy on ebay something this expensive unless it was rediculously cheap.

I love the color and look....someday!!

lmao ,, thought so

J.Lance · 12-15-2004, 09:07 PM

I guess I'll chime in a little. Oddly clean motor compartment. Motor harness?, Wiper spray hoses?, Oil pressure line? I'm not saying it is not there, just saying I don't see em. Wiring is one of the first things I check out to see how original a restoration is. My personal preference is to retain the original routing for the original look.

That truck is far from original, which limits the value no matter how nice the work is.

bouncytruck · 12-16-2004, 01:03 PM

Now that you mention it, I don't see any wires. Also, the brake booster and proportioning valve aren't stock. The transmission dip stick is taller than stock and the underside of the hood is painted black.

Does anyone know what the sticker is above the gas filler tube?

Still, nice but I don't see $40,000 there.

1Ton · 12-16-2004, 02:08 PM

I posted this on another site I belong to. I never looked it over as close as you guys did. Guess it was out of my price range so I just glanced it over. I am curious as to where the Tcase lever is though. Pretty truck though.

MAC67 · 12-16-2004, 02:44 PM

man that tie rod is bent bigger than sh1t , look at it in the picture where the blazer is sittin on the red garage floor

Did you notice the passenger side vent window sitting on the floor by the driver's front wheel?

The photos must have been taken while the truck was still being assembled. It might not have had the t-case shifter and the wiring in place yet.

michigank5 · 12-16-2004, 05:52 PM

This was the response to my question about the t-case lever so you might be right bouncy:

"hello the lever is been redone and yes it is a 4X4 thanks."
