Pic.s of new blazer. It's an 84 m1009 military 6.2 diesel with 52000 miles. Straight from the utah nat. Guard. Very little rust. I was working at g.m. truck & bus assy. when these were built. Probably saw this one go down the line.

YEH.. I BET YOU DID. THERES A COUPLE OF FELLERS DOWN IN FLORIDA THAT BUY MILTARY VEHICALS FROM THE GSA MOTOR POOL, & SOMEONE GAVE THEM THE IDEA TO PUT BIGASS TIRES & A 6" LIFT ON SOME OF THEM TO SELL FOR THE OFF ROAD CROWD. I BID ON IT.. BUT BY BID ONLY WENT UP TO ABOUT $1250, NOT EVEN CLOSE TO HIS RESERVE. THERE 39" MICHILIN TIRES & I THINK THE TIRES & WHEELS ALONE WOULD COST MORE THAN THAT, NOT TO MENTION THE 6" RANCHO LIFT & THE TRUCK ITSELF. WITH THIS ECONOMY BEING IN THE SH!TTER LIKE IT IS & EVERYONE DOWN IN THAT AREAS CONCENTRATION ON THAT HUGE OIL SPILL, I GUESS BUYING A 26 YEAR OLD TRUCK IS WAY DOWN ON THE PRIORITY LIST.

SHOOT IT'S THE NEWEST TRUCK I OWN. IT NEEDS A LITTLE TLC IN AREAS, BUT WITH ONLY 52000 MILES ON IT, I PLAN ON MAKING IT MY DAILY DRIVER. THAT 6.2 DIESEL IS MY FIRST DIESEL EVER (BESIDES MY JOHN DEERE) & WILL LEARN ABOUT BUILDING & MAINTAINING ONE. G.M. MADE ABOUT A SCRILLION OF EM, & NOW THAT THE ARMED FORCES IS REPLACING THEM WITH HUMMVEE'S, IT'S A PRETTY GOOD BANG FOR THE BUCK.

Man that is cool! You are rolling good with that one. Good luck with it.

I love those CUCV's. Good looking one you got there.

junkyardjohn · 07-06-2010, 04:54 PM

THANKS GUYS. I'M DOING A LITTLE TLC & MANTAINANCE ON IT NOW, GETTING IT READY TO BE MY DAILY DRIVER. AFTER 26 YEARS IN THE NATIONAL GUARD, THERES A BUNCH OF LITTLE ITEMS THAT NEED ADDRESSING. IT'S OLD ENOUGH THAT A GUY LIKE ME CAN DO ALL THE WORK ON IT, WHILE NEW ENOUGH TO BE A RELIABLE DAILY DRIVER.(& ONLY 52000 MILES) SO FAR SO GOOD. IT'S GOT A T-400 IN IT MATED TO A NP-208. I LIKE THAT COMBO. THESE ARE WHAT G.M. CALLED THE 3/4 TON BLAZER. 6 LUG 10 BOLTS D-44s, BUT A CARGO CAPACITY OF 1200 LBS. (MUST BE THAT NEW MATH)
