another sweet find on craigslist

Let's review shall we?

The bad
Need's to have the brakes installed (have the parts in the back of the truck)

Dent In drivers door ( Shows that it's not just a fufu truck)

The good

Has removable half top (good if your girlfriend or other half wants to get a tan)
Can run over Geo metros ( I allready have)

Would be great if I wanted a truck with stock axles and 44's.


Oh and not to mention its not a FRUFRU truck that my girl can get a tan in.

Actually, thats a badass ride. With stock tail lights, and different rims, i'd rock it. Tons of custom hours into it, looks to be built for show, but built decently.

To each his own, but looks nicely restored/customized.


But, where is the hood? And did he put later model doors on?, as the tops of the doors don't line up wiht the cab......
 
Those mirrors kill it. Lose the taillights, mirrors and put some tires with a bigger sidewall on it and it'd be cool.
 
Looks really well built, not like the normal redneck hack job you see on there.

just not my style. I see no need for an air suspension on anything other than a big rig, and velocity stacks havent been cool since 1982.
 
Here's Craigs '73

With some minor changes I'd rock that blue one in a heartbeat. Stock tail lights, bigger tires, lose the velocity stack in favor of a regular open element filter and add a shroud/dual electric fan set-up. Mirrors I'm OK with.

As long as it came with an equally good top and a hood I think it's a reasonably good deal.

I'd rock the blue on in a heartbeat. Straight over to the tire shop to get some decent treads on it, then stock tail lights, then set the airbags to a decent ride height, then remove the switches. If it came with the top and hood in equally good condition it would be good.

Air ride makes anything ride much nicer, it's like riding on air:wink1: When my Yukon get's to the day that it starts pulling a family around and an RV trailer, you can bet that oba with rear airbags is on the list.

I'd keep the switches, drop it a little lower to cruise at the beach or when parked, raise it up a couple for normal driving.

The huge sub enclosure and subs I'd ditch though. the rest of the interior I think is nice, and looks to be well done.

I can appreciate the seats in it too, I sit in the same seats every day:D

And on a side thought, that blue Blazer doesn't look like it in SoCal in the pics, more like Seattle. Last I recall there weren't any pine trees in LA, but I may be wrong.

Look at the plates. Lots of guys cross-post their stuff on CL now days.
