Not too shabby a truck...for an 84 anyways - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Longhorn Man · 11-23-2002, 12:21 AM

Saw this one for sale today...real nice rig. Just shy of 100K on the clock, $2900 on the price tag.
Looked to be all original except for parts store mirrors and possably an aftermarket step bumper. The silver looks to be repainted, but the black is original. 305?auto, tilt, power everything....
It just cought my eye.

Nice truck. I like it.

But please, keep the snow up there with you. Where did you go so quick last night anyway?

And what do you mean by, "for an 84 anyways"?

Longhorn Man · 11-23-2002, 01:10 AM

Yeah, i agree. it looks alot like the blazer that dragged my one ton home from PA last spring.
Maybe that's why I like it.

Keep the snow!!!??? Hell no! I've been out in the front yard farting as much as I can to warm up the air. I think i actually got the air temp up one or two degrees too.

"For an 84 anyways".... Normally I think these are fugly. Way too common, and kinda booring. But as for every rule, there are some exceptions.
Last night something personal popped up and I had to haul ass. Sorry.

Hey Andy... tell him you'll give him $2500... you're missing the C on your GMC Emblem on the front grille !

Longhorn Man · 11-23-2002, 06:17 PM

Wow...it's gone.
It stayed on the lot for 3 whole days.
That was honestly the cleanest UNRESTORED older truck I have seen here that was not garraged for 10 years.

**old Rusty C10** · 11-23-2002, 07:34 PM

Longhorn Man · 11-23-2002, 10:49 PM

messed up c-10 · 11-24-2002, 04:56 PM

That pic was taken before I started driving through mud and I figure why wash the underside of the truck so it probably looks pretty gross down there now.

Purple Hornies rock. They really bring the noise down from what it would have been with some cheaply built glasspacks.

hrc200x · 11-25-2002, 12:50 AM

where do you buy purple hornies and how much?

Stano · 11-25-2002, 01:30 AM

Longhornmail, that looks like my K-5 except mines a 84 and rusty and noisy and goes like a MOFO in the mud and snow! Blazers are great winter rides in my book.

I bought mine from Jegs. They were $31.99 each or something like that.

75stepside · 11-25-2002, 05:19 PM

messed up c-10....

i see that your truck suffered from the same crossmember / exhaust conflict that most do...

i solved the problem by getting another stock crossmember, cutting both in two and welding them back together to produce a crossmember with two up slants...

check it out (check out more at my site!!!):

Wow that looks nice. I wish I had had the time to do something like that, but I was in a hurry to get my truck running before school started. It doesnt effect the flow any but the pass. side muffler hangs down more than the drivers side.
