Chevrolet Blazer 1972 Description

Up for auction here is my 1972 GMC Jimmy in beautifully frame-off resto modcondition.It is NOT a Blazer converted to a Jimmy it is an original GMCJimmy.I am a professional mechanic specializingin high performance modern builds and classic restorations.This truck has been my personal daily driver for the past couple years.Between the previous owner and myself there have beentens ofthousands of dollars put into this truck and moreparts/labor than I can even remember but I will try and hit the highlights:

Power Steering Power brakes (front discs) HEI Ignition system YES the truck has workingwindshield wipers.

Sandblasted frame and many parts including the radiator support axlesbrackets emergency brakegas/brakepedal assembliestraysand.......( well over 40hrs of sandblasting alone)

Anti corrosion coating on axles frame radiatorcore support ( Many people use Por 15 but it looks terrible to me. I went instead with a more labor intensemulti stage system for the glossy look you see in the pics and tough as nails protection)

Axlesframe steering column refinished ingloss blackurethane

Bedliner interior for easy cleaning or can have a carpet kit installed (kit usually runs around $400) bedliner also serves as a sound deadening material.

Paint is Gloss Black single stagefor a DEEP shiny black that only single stage can produce!

Thereare so many parts and countless hours of fabrication bodywork mechanical work and so on that it would take far too long to list. I spent a few hundred dollars on nuts bolts and fasteners alone! The build is nearly 100% complete for me. What is left is basically personal comfort options in my opinion like seatingupholstery and so on.I have ordered a new weather stripping kit for the truck and new sweeps for the door glass. As for the paint it is beautiful but not perfect yet you have to be right up on the truck to see any of the small imperfections. The truck is an original A/C truck but I have not bothered to restore the system although the heater works great. Personally I never had a need for A/C being that I always drove the truck topless. Anew A/C system runs around $1200.I have new turn signal lenses for the front grill and I did not order the front bumper lights since they can be used as day time running lights off road lighting or fog lights. I figured the new owner couldinstall what they wanted any of those three can be done for under$300.Suffice it to saythis build isvery clean very costly and it is highly unlikelythat you'llsee another frame off like it on ebay for a long time.Actual frame off Blazers/Jimmys are EXTREMELY rare most just say"fully restored" orsomething obscurelike that. Of course that is not atall comparable to a frame-off restoration.The last Blazer/Jimmy that was comparable sold through Mecum Auctions for $40000last year and wasn't as clean as this one. Frame offBlazers and Jimmys tend to go for over $40k over the past yearsothis is aVERY rare opportunity at this price.I know I have just given a brief description here so if you would like more information please feel free to contact me Dave at 775-338-3300. At this price I cannot include anything more than what is listed however if you want something done like the seats refinished carpet installedA/C or fuel injection installed please contact me for pricing and more details!
