Re: the $450 2wd blazer i bought

If it runs okay, I'd definitely keep the Pontiac 400 in there!

I maybe a bit biased besides my 350 powered Blazer everything I got is Pontiac 400 powered... My Trans Am and GTO's are all 400 Poncho powered.
Love 400's!

BTW Nice solid Blazer to start with. Wish I could find one like that for that kind of money....(I paid over 20 times more than that for mine, and that's without all shipping, import and registration costs to get it here....)

Re: the $450 2wd blazer i bought

You know, I saw the outside and thought, "Looks like a nice clean Blazer." Then I saw why you said the interior was hammered. You should contact Glock35ipsc. He had a set of Gray buckets from a Suburban (listed in the 73-87 classifieds). Worth checking out for sure. He is a good guy and the seats are a HUGE improvement for you...um, I guess that doesn't say much. Does it?

Regardless of the interior you got a smoking deal.
