Frustrated
 

Hi, I'm new to the forum an admiring all the great looking builds here. I"ve been looking for a Blazer for about a year now. Why are they so hard to find?
Willing to spend decent money on an original non rusted truck. I have a 74 Bronco Ranger I'm getting ready to sell but if I can't find a nice original Blazer I just might have to keep the old Ford.

Not mine. Been for sale for a bit...been on eBay twice I think. They're usually all dissolved in our neck of the woods.

Thanks, Really looking for a 71,72. Most of the ones in ga are rough woods Trucks. That 70 looks nice its close to my house but the engine bay looks a little rough for the price..

Re: Frustrated
 

You could always try negotiating....

Re: Frustrated
 

Wow! That's a very sweet looking Bronco! I don't think I could bear to part with that.

Re: Frustrated
 

Thanks , I've always want an early Blazer I like the size of a fullsize...
I appreciate the recommendations but looking for a 71 or 72 Model.
Great looking Blazers

Re: Frustrated
 

That's a nice looking blazer.

Re: Frustrated
 

Let me know if you need any help. I've go one of the few around town here. It is my daily driver.

Re: Frustrated
 

Nice looking Bronco.

Re: Frustrated
 

I've seen yours off Bells ferry all the time. Your the reason I want too spend all my money LOL....

Re: Frustrated
 

It does look good but its a 1970

Re: Frustrated
 

Thankyou Sir and your Truck is exactly What I'm looking for. I love the skinny's too....

Re: Frustrated
 

Thanks. It is where I've spent all of mine. Sharp Bronco by the way. My brother-in-law has one that he is having restored.

Re: Frustrated
 

Does he live in Ga? where is he having the work done? I lost my paint n body guy about a year ago. Would love to have another place to go when needed.

Re: Frustrated
 

Yes. He is having it done at a place at the intersection of Univeter Rd. and 140. I don't know anything about them. He was told he would have it back in a few weeks, but from the looks of your bronco you are probably familiar with the likelihood of that timeline.

Re: Frustrated
 

That place is close by. I live 1/2 mile from there off of scott rd. I know where it is just havent heard any feed back about them... Small world ...

Re: Frustrated
 

I own a 71 Bronco Sport, which I've restored, in addition to my 72 Blazer. I never understood why the early Broncos brought such big money compared to the first gen Blazers. The ealy Broncos were made for 10 years (66-76) so there are a lot of them out there (granted with various ungrades to the drivelines). GM made the first gen Blazer for only 4 years, so they are relatively rarer.

Re: Frustrated
 

I should have thought of that 6 more years of production would definitely
Put more of them on the street... The more I look at blazers I've noticed they have rust issues just like the broncos.which one do you like better ?

Re: Frustrated
 

I've got both, a 76 Bronco and a 72 Blazer.
Both are back to bone stock show room condition.
Using my East Coast standards for pricing (not sure if its demand or popularity based), but the Bronco is worth more than the Blazer by around 10Gs

Great looking pair ... You need to sell me that blazer it's beautiful... My favorite color

Re: Frustrated
 

2 great looking trucks right there.

Re: Frustrated
 

Wow tbruz. Great looking pair. I forgot that I've got a very similar Bronco stored. It's completely stock and probably wouldnt take much to get it pretty clean.

Now my 72 Blazer...........that's another story.

Re: Frustrated
 

Thanks for the compliments!!
Wasn't meaning to hijack the thread, just wanted to share that for some strange reason the Early Broncos are worth more than the the Gen 1 Blazers. Finding that's true from basket case condition all the way up to when restored to BJ quality condition.

Re: Frustrated
 

I would agree watching the sales on both. There is a lot more broncos out there too. No mention of you wanting to sell your Blazer bummer lol...

Re: Frustrated
 

I guess I need to learn something. I thought the 69-72 Blazers are pretty much the same.
Hold24, why would'nt you want a 69?
