One of my friends in Iowa is selling his M1009. It is in fairly normal stock condition. Reason for selling is pretty standard (kids came and he has hardly touched it in the last 5 years or so). Unlike mine, this one runs and drives normally. I have driven it 2 or 3 times and don't remember any problems. A slow radiator leak has been stopped with some chemical sealant, he recommends replacing or repairing the radiator before taking long-distance trips in it. It also needs new batteries. Aside from that it is in good driving condition. He's asking $2100 for it.
If anyone here is interested, I will get pictures, detailed specs, and a much more thorough statement of condition.
Edit - condition is as follows:
M1009 Chevrolet D10 Military 4WD Blazer with 71k miles.
Naturally aspirated 6.2 diesel.
24 volt dual-battery dual alternator electrical system (glow plug timer has been bypassed by PO).
BFG Traction TAs (32x11.5R15LT) on aftermarket black steel wheels (including full size spare).
Has body rust which has freed the passenger side seat belt anchor.
The driver's seat belt anchor has broken off and needs replacement.
This variant has DC power rails behind the passenger seat for (radio?) equipment and has a driver's side collapsible antenna mount.
I believe the antenna is for CB.
Has some interior and several exterior body rust areas. Windshield has cracks but all other glass is okay.
Fuel gauge does not operate (stuck full) which I believe was caused by generator regulator failure (repaired).
Blackout light is present and operational.
Starts, Runs, Drives.
Needs trailer transport due to non-functional seat belts.
$2100 obo.
