Can't be any newer than 78 since it has the round gas door.

Looks nice, should be a good little vehicle for you. How many does that make in the stable now?:grin:
 
Well he listed it as a 74 sure hope it is buying sight un seen :rolleyes: have a roll bar to fit it that came out of my 73 so hope it really is a 74.

The Astro has a leaking engine cuz somebody didn't have enough anti freeze in it :eek1: so was going to do a V8 swap in it but this came up so I would rather build it. Blazer should get around the same mileage but have a cooler factor. Although a V8 power Astro is rather cool.

was 74 a full vert or only 73, got me thinking now :confused:
 
as is 75, so its a 76-77, maybe a vin change? ruh-roh-rhaggy!


If you dont mine me asking, how much did ya give? looks rust free.
 
I don't think it's a 74 unless somebody swapped the tub at some point. The tub looks to be a 76-78. Round gas cap and half roof was only those years IIRC.
 
I love not living in commie territory with emissions. :grin:

Yeah, it has to be 76 or 77 with the half cab and round gas door opening. The vertical markers are pre-81 as well as are the badges on the fenders.
 
Yeah things should be interesting I have a reason to pull the imaculate interior out of burb now. Although that would be a ton of work and power window are pretty cool on the trails.

Paying him what he is asking says the drivers is as clean as the passengers and has no real dents.
 
has 73-76 style doors on it (door panels) so i would safetly call it a 76 IF everything was all orignal, your gauge cover is mid 80s though i believe.
 
Might be time for a DIY dash and my full set of autometer guages and my prostick and all the other saved parts in my shop for projects to get to one day :rolleyes:
 
One day you need to get an inventory together of everything you have, my guess is it might take a year or so to get to it all though.
 
I'm guessing it used to be a manual trans at some point. The brake pedal is really small.

Is that a Dodge steering wheel too?

The dash cover is priceless. Can't imagine how it smells in there.

Solid body goes a long way but I bet you'll have some bugs to work out or some hack jobs to fix.
