67 CHEV MAN · 07-08-2002, 01:44 PM

I know quite a few of us have said to ourselves that the only way we would buy anything else, that it had to be a "Great Deal" because we already had enough stuff to keep us busy for 2 lifetimes.As you can see below I have several trucks already, but anyway a friend and me were looking the local junkyards in Texas. We met an old guy at a used car lot that had a couple of old vehicles but they were at another lot 60 miles away, we decided to take the drive anyway, and one the first things we see is a blazer. The thing was in excellent shape and every thing was still on it we notice that it was kinda of lower than most of the other ones we have seen. We look underneath, it turns out to be a 72 2wheel Chev Blazer.The best part of the story is that the guy only wanted 2500 for it. It was a deal I couldn't walk from. I can't wait to bring it home, which will be in a couple of weeks. I will post pics of it and all my other rigs when I get everything in one state.

Wanna trade for my 69 swb? Hehe...

67 CHEV MAN · 07-09-2002, 07:34 PM

Thanks Guys, At times I still can't believe I found one. I will probably never sell her "Sorry".I've got to say this is one of my better deals, but everything I got was a great deal " Just Lucky I Guess".Also I this is only the second 2 wheel drive blazer Ive seen up close besides the one Frank has in Olympia, Wash.,which is very nice.I will be leaving for Seattle, Wash., in a couple of weeks to bring back some more of my junk as my wife says.Project72lwb hopefully before Fall the Tulsa area will be my permanent home. I will surely be posting pictures of my rigs.
