It's cheaper to ship than to fix rust!

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

If it's truly all original, it could be a good score.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

General question about 2wd. Did they come with turbo 400s? or just turbo 350 transmissions. I've seen a couple that advertised the 400 tranny.

Not sure, but I know mine has a TH400 in it.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

All automatic Blazers and Jimmy's had TH350 as far as I know. If it has a TH400, I'd guess it was "upgraded" when the transmission needed rebuilding.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

I hadn't posted mine here because I was thinking it might be breaking the rules, but figured I'd risk it and someone would let me know.
72 2wd Blazer for sale link
Just dropped in a new high perf. engine too. I'll be posting the specs on it soon, as well as redo the for sale page.

Re: 2wd Blazer and Jimmy's find thread

Mine's still for sale, some things need fix'n, but for the $ it's a bargain.
Of course there is always those who will dispute what a bargain is

Sorry to hear that, it would have been less tragic for me passing her to you. Maybe when you see the upgrades she got it will convince you otherwise.
