Re: Mecum Auction Kissimmee 2017 Blazers

I saw that too. I am wondering if they just didnt get the hood all the way shut after engine bay pics.

Maybe but I would still say not very professional look at the overspray on the master cylinder.

There's no way that had a professional restoration. Look at the overspray on the alternator and the master cylinder. I think all it had was a quick detailing, and a poor one at that.
Here's the link where you can see full size pictures.---->https://www.mecum.com/lots/FL0117-26...let-k5-blazer/

Note the steering wheel on this supposedly "professional" restoration.

Re: Mecum Auction Kissimmee 2017 Blazers

I was there and saw all of them the yellow one was the better one of the two cheaper ones. I just wasnt crazy about the color. The green one had a few problems that I noticed. The rocker boxes were never installed during the build. The passenger door latch had several washers behind it. The orange one was nice just wasnt $41000. The green one was a no sale on the block for $27000 but sold a day later.

Re: Mecum Auction Kissimmee 2017 Blazers

After looking at that yellow one, I noticed the outline of a Blazer was forever etched into my monitor even when turned off. ;-)

Re: Mecum Auction Kissimmee 2017 Blazers

I watched last night, but no Blazers went on the block. I did see lots of junk go up. The camera hides a lot of defects, but if you look close you can see a lot of the vehicles are just polished turds with buyers chomping at the bit to buy them. I guess they can tell their friends that they bought a car from Barrett Jackson, even though it's a POS. LOL
