I'm just beat with this thing, and I have more interest in finding a ready to go rig.

'72 Blazer firewall, windshield, front floor. Also have the stock hood, cut front fenders, and the rear fenders have been gutted and mounted on the rear cage. The rollcage is built front the Apillar all the way back to the end of the frame. Seat mounts built for the front seats.

Drivetrain:
*SBC 350, mild build by the PO to run on propane, headers installed with good gaskets
*TH350 tranny with shifter
*NP203 to 3:1 LoMax with HAD flange for the rear d-shaft; NWF doubler (203 is inverted & LoMax clocked 4" up); NWF triple stick cable shifters
*Front DRW 60 with 5.86s, Detroit, Yukon 35 spline inners/outers, gusseted knuckles, Sky MFG hi-steer arms, ARP studs, Mad4WD axle seals, replaced everything minus the kingpins, 4WD Factory flanges, Great Lake Offroad diff cover, new rotors (that are no covered in surface rust), 1410 yoke
*Rear DRW HD70 with 5.86s, Detroit, 35 spline axles, drum brakes, GLO diff cover, DIY4X spring perches not welded in, 1410 yoke

Suspension:
*Front: Stock 52" springs, rebuilt using a UHMW material, 1" zero rate, longer shackles, Sky MFG front xmember, greaseable bushings, ORD eye hanger at the frame where the shackles bolt to
*Rear: TCI 3" lift 64" springs, ORD shackles
*Shocks: (4) 15" travel BBCS

MISC:
*12K Tabor Winch
*Entire propane setup with vaporizer, two tanks, propane line, etc.
*Full hydro setup, would probably only need a steering column & hydraulic hoses
*Full Autometer gauges made to fit the stock bezel
*Corbeau seats for driver & passenger with red 4 pt harnesses
*H1 wheels widened to 12", new seals and valvesteams, GLO rock rings, USA6x6 PVC inserts
*New complete wiring harness
*Misc tabs for shock mounts
*DIY4X motor mounts
*3/16 plate for a bellypan
*1/4" UHMW for a bellypan
*HAD rear driveshaft with 1350 yoke at the t-case & 1410 at the axle
*All parts to build a 1480 front d-shaft
*Extra tubing to tube out the front
*DIY4X spring plates, new ubolts

I'm sure I'm forgetting some things but that's about all of it. This is more of a feeler thread, as I'll continue to work on it, but I'd rather be out wheeling than building. I'm currently working on the propane mounts & doubler mounts. Maybe once I get over those hurdles I'll decide to keep it, but who knows... This thing still has a title & I still have the VIN tag.

The economy sucks but this thing has a ton of sentimental value for me but I'd guess 16K OBO for everything.

Partial trades: 69-72 Blazer, 4 seat toyota "buggy"

If you want to see anything specific, let me know. Basically needs: time to put the parts together, tires, hydraulic hoses, brake setup.
