ok, heres the rig..... Im gunna start the asking price at $2,500.00 O.B.O. and I mean O.B.O. I want this thing gone now. or someone to make me a deal on helping me rebuild the engine and getting it back on the road.

1976 k5 blazer
350 with 4 speed manual.
6" superlift
39" swampers
Smitty buit Rollcage with extra bars
Honda prelude seats,
RCI 5 point harnesses
Inside of truck is totall gutted and rhino lined, Dash is still in tact
I have 2 engines, one is good and needs to be rebuit, both out of truck.
I have a all the parts to rebuild it inclue, High performance cam kit, Edlbrock intake, Gasket Kit, high perfromance cam kit, Springs. and a few other goodies, New oipl mup, fuel pump. and newer carb, K&N Intake system. I cut 3 inches off the bottom of the body and took all the trim off. After I put the roll cage in I cut the top off the beast. Now I have a full top from a 73 that will come with it. Im looking for 2 things, how much could I get for this? Any offers? And or does anybody work in the Edmonds area that might want to rebuild the motor and install it ? I mean be paid to do it of course, I know autobody but not much about rebuilding or installing an engine. I'd like to sell it or get it back on the road. Help me out guys!! I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!! Ive spent alot of money already with another mechanic and he only got part of the way through and it was going to cost way to much to finish. So im left with a truck with no engine and two blocks.
 
Thanks for the reply

im in washington state, Edmonds washington to be specific
 
anybody need parts? I guess I might get more that way, kind of a pain, any offers of any kind? trades? boats? guns? any other testosterone driven toy? dirtbikes? motorcycle?
 
Can you post pics? I'd be interested in the whole rig. Also if you want a good mechanic, you need to contact Brent at Trople Motorsports in Everett. I can give you the # if your interested.

What does it have for axles? Gears?
 
If anyone wants to see pics please email me at [email protected] then I will respond with pics. As for Gears and axles it was all stock as far as I know. I really dont know much about parts and Engines, Ive always regretted taking autobody instead of engine
 
I recieved your pics, I'm putting my short box up for sale or trade right now. I may end up trading it for a running K5 but this one is a bit more of a project than I want for the price your asking.
 
Well im torn between rebuilding the engine and just getting rid of the project until I got a better garage. I am willing to negotiate and If someone showed up with a hunk of cash I would make a deal, or maybe not sell all the parts if someone had there own stuff to use, or sell it without the engines, I dont know, Im just rattling now. If I dont get any response soon I will probably start the rebuild process this weekend.
