Posting for a friend. VERRRRRY clean truck, guy is meticulous. Contact me, I'll forward him your contact info. The truck has not been listed on CL yet.
Pass the word: I need to sell my loaded 4.3L S-10 Blazer 2dr, 2WD. It’s a clean as they come, inside and out. Everything works including ice-cold AC!
140K highway miles on a rust-free Southern truck—original paint & sheetmetal (and NO Bondo!). Lowered 2” with Bell-Tech spindles, and rolling on brand-new Goodyears with rare NOS (yes, NOS!) “Xtreme” (ZQ8) wheels.
I’ve gone all through it and put many THOUSANDS of bucks into repairs and upgrades, including a complete rebuild & upgrade of the 4L60E trans by some of our best former Hydra-matic techs. See bottom of page for a summary of work done, which includes: full brake system; new intake gaskets; new radiator/water pump/all hoses; new door hinges; new battery & generator. Prices shown are for parts without labor.
Looking for about $4500. It will go on Craigslist in next few days. Yeah, I know you can buy one for under $3000, but those are the ones with RUST, “check engine” lights, leaky intake gaskets, saggy doors, bad brakes, worn interiors, non-functional heater/AC, etc., etc. Mine is likely the nicest you’ll find, and a hell of a used car for the price.
The attached pictures are few and small; Additional and larger pictures are posted on Photobucket, including detailed shots of door jambs, wheelwells, etc:

NOTE: The currently-installed fancy-ass Pioneer LCD touchscreen DVD/CD receiver (w/ Bluetooth, USB, microphone, remote controls, and more) is not included at this price, but can be easily negotiated for a few bucks. Otherwise, I’ll reinstall the factory GM FM/CD player.
