why can't there be abunch of cheap 73-75 k5's in my part of texas. You keep finding all these good deals.

 

[Jrgunn5150]

I know, jeez I'd buy that for 1k if it was local.

I'm picking up this beauty next month for $1,000

 

[Craig Artzner]

Looks like a '73-'74 Jimmy. Where you picking that up at?

 

[fordeater]

Some guy about an hour and a half from here has it. Its a 73 Jimmy, all original, 350 with a 4 speed. Has a little rust and a few dents on the other side. Don't worry Craig, i'm not here to compete with you. lol

 

[Craig Artzner]

Who's competing? I wish there were more trucks like mine on the site...

Looks like a good deal

Craig, I may be ditching my factory roll bar for a custom setup here soon... you interested?

Yes I am. Let me know.

 

[fordeater]

I want to find a factory roll bar for this thing too. I used to have a 75 Blazer that had a roll bar. I actually thought more of these blazers came with them, but I guess I was wrong. Seems more don't have it then ones that do.

the tall blazer has a 400sbc and the interior is clean!!

my friend is gonna buy it and the cash is burnin a hole in his pocket, the seller is gonna be busy this weekend, and my friend wants to pick it up, LOL

well un update: well sorta

i took it out to the dunes yesterday, and man is this thing tough!! i went up hill with those tires in 2wd!!

and it went into second gear!LOL

this thing is sweet!!

 

[chevy wrangler]

havent really done much with the blazer, except put my old rims and tires on it(31" interco trexus mt's) they handle better then those street tires thats for sure.



well my friend bought the 73 and we got it running better


heres a pic or 3

I know where i am moving to

 

[chevy wrangler]

yup there are plenty here!LOL

your hoods al look the same! Raised in the back.

If you loosen your hood hinges a bit then lift the hood as high as it will go to rotate the hinges, tighten the bolts back up and you should be good to go.

Both blazers look great, you got a great score

 

[chevy wrangler]

sweet ima try that today, just got home from work so yeah ill try later and report with pics.LOL
