Thanks Tony! I'm still really pleased that I found and bought this Blazer. It seems to thrive on being run HARD. I have a wish list of improvements I'd like to make but I don't have time. I'm too busy blasting around in it enjoying it.

I didn't know so few 2wd Jimmy's were made when I bought it.. still don't know 'zackly how many. Apparently production numbers aren't available. My intention was to have it kinda like my Blazer, lo-tech, Big Block, 750 holley, stick, loud, lowered some, no top. I was gathering parts & pieces. THEN I saw jeffg1010's post about the ochre/white Blazer being for sale. LAZY ME thought it be more fun to DRIVE the Blazer than WORK on the Jimmy..... I was right. The Jimmy is about a "20 FOOTER", plenty rusty covered with shiny paint. Notice I take crappy cel. phone pictures of it. It runs & drives good and I don't worry much about parking lot bumps and nicks. My older Son thinks I should GIVE it to him....

Re: How many 2 wheel drive blazers do we have?

Here is my 72 Blazer, my second one....I really regretted selling my first one and "needed" to have another one. Since I bought this one I have changed the interior, suspension, and now just finished installing a LS1. Everyone keep posting pictures if you have a Blazer!!

Very cool! First time I've seen real 67-68 trim on a blazer. Now I know what it'll look like on mine.
