Nice Blazer.  I don't think anyone on this site would pass that deal up!

All normal practicality and rational money handling goes out of the window when it comes to my truck.

Even if you dont consider the Ford/Chevy comparison. the fact is the Blazer appears to be in great shape, and the Ford is in decent shape. Id swap just because the Blazer has more use to me, and definately looks better.

1986 K-10 SWB

And here I sit so patiently
Waiting to find out what price

I don't like running boards that much either.  I have to say every time I see them on one of our trucks I'm dying to crawl under it and see what they're hiding on those rocker panels!

Floors are great,the carpets had been removed a few years ago so the floors were cleaned up and painted,rockers looked good when i looked over it last,think it could need some minor work around where the steps are mounted,but its purely a runaround for me as my main concentration is stuck on the c10... ;)
