It has been over a year since the fire in my garage. The new garage isn't done...yet. The insurance company still owes me money and all i see is a wreck of a truck in the back yard. I have no money to repair. The truck was parked in front of the garage. most the damage was to front area. the frame/axles and mid body back are fine.
there is a TON of good stuff on this truck and stuff that wasn't even on the truck yet in the cellar
This is the only pic I have of it online after fire.

3/4 ton front with 5.13's, 14ff with NEW locker and gears. disc brakes.
I have a D60 that hasn't been rebuilt yet with 4.10's. 52" springs up front, crossover steering, new 2" rear springs with shackle flip. rebuilt th400/205, Comes with a 4 bolt 350. Not in truck. I have the transfer case ebrake, spare shafts, NEW bilstein 7100 14" travel remote reservoir shocks. for the front, never installed. The body tub is RUST free. S&W roll cage installed. battery in rear. It has 15x14 bart wheels, but the front 2 44's didn't survive. It would be an easy repair or awesome parts. It needs wiring, windsheild and dash. 2,200.00 will take EVERY part for it. I have another blazer available, but it belongs to a friend. It's an 88. the body is rough BUT it has almost everyting to repair THIS truck. all he wants is the engine from the 88. It runs and drives. an extra 300 will take that also.
If you are interested please pm me. or call my cell 518-225-3930

I DO NOT WANT TO PART THE TRUCK OUT!!!
I LOST ALMOST ALL MY TOOLS IN THE FIRE AND CAN NOT DISMANTLE!!!!!
Take it all or don't ask.....I want this part of my life to GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!
I cannot stand seeing it anymore. I get sick every time I look at it!!

could you get some more pics of everything? sorry about everything man, i remember when this first happened :(
 
hey bro what does the truck need? i got an extra wiring harness and an extra winshield that i would be willing to donate to you so you could put your truck back together. the truck looked bad ass and im sure you hate to sell it, despite what happened.
 
windsheild, wiring (non-efi) master cylinder/booster(3/4 ton) front seats. It would also need heater(non ac) if anybody cared. needs steering column. and at 2 44"x15's I have some stuff to fix it, wiper motor, some wiring. The motor for it needs a carb, distributer, and wires.
The big problems are the garage itself. I have had some major zone related cost over runs. My garage is $2,000 short of being completed. WITHOUT electrical. My insurance company still owes me $2,900, but WON'T give it to me until It's certified complete!! And to add to the misery, at the beginning of the year, I took 2 pay cuts at work, and because the economy is slow, so is work!! so my paychecks are getting even smaller!!
I really hoped to keep it and save it. But i can't do anyting with it until the garage is 100% complete. and thats getting farther out of reach also!!
 
Im sorry for what happened. Hopefully you get through the bull**** youre going through now and decide to put your truck back together.
If you do pm me I have a small cap HEI dist complete with cap and rotor. I may even have a set of wires. Ill donate what Ive got to your rebuild.
Like the saying goes brother...
If youre going through hell....keep going.
 
i think i got a collum and a complete wiring harness, and some other stuff from an 84 k10 if you want to put it together...

thanks for the parts offer guys. I REALLY don't want to get rid of the truck, but until the garage gets done, I have NO CHOICE but to try and unload it.
 
TTT
I still have ALL of this available!!! The new garage structure is built, but has no electrical or driveway entrance!! I will consider trades for an older GM car, shop tools, lift, welders, air compressor, tool box...ANYTHING that will help me get my automotive life back in order!!

sorry about the bull... :( I'd love to buy some of the parts if you ever take that route...
 
Thanks. A local friend gave me an 89 that has most of what the truck needs. heater box, wiring, windsheild. I don't have money at this point to buy 2 tires(44's) or the time that this truck needs to be put back together. I would rather see it gone, than just sit here for another year!! It's in the garage. I just don't have the time anymore to work on it for hours at a time.
