anyone near KENT?

kevinr1970 · 11-07-2004, 09:25 PM

I live just north of Seattle. It is a pretty good drive unless you do it real early in the morning or real late at night. Traffic SUCKS around here.

I'm looking for someone in the kent area who can look at a blazer for me, but if it's a pretty long haul I dont want to put any one out. I see you have an 82 2wd is it for sale?

kevinr1970 · 11-08-2004, 11:12 AM

I do have an '82 and yes and no its for sale. I am legally involved with the dealer, coincidently in OK, that I bought it from. Was supposed to be rust free, no body damage, great running, etc, etc....
I am supposed to hear back from OK atorney general this week and then I get to decide whether to sue or not. This sucks.
Once this is all resolved, I have an engine to replace the one in the truck, and a guy gave me an '84 K5 4x4 that has a rust straight rust free body. But once I do all this work, I'll probably want to keep it

.
I went and looked at a 2wd '82 Blazer a few weeks ago down south of Seattle, near Kent, but I thought it was in DesMoines? They are pretty close though? '82, ex-state truck, '91 buckets, back seat and carpet. Original 6 cyl., manual transmission now with T350, 350 2-brl. Any of this sound familiar?

this one is green, 305,700r4, 20" torq thrust wheels, supposedly straight and rust free. I think I saw the one you are talking about on collectorcartraderonline though.

I'm looking at property up your way for retirement, probably a little south - like Omak or Tonasket.

Check out our club site - maybe you'll find out there are others in your area.
