Ummm...personally I might buy anything that has Yenko in the name of the vehicle. I didn't even know there were Yenko Blazers? Take a quick look at this link and then do some more research on what Yenko Chevrolet did to muscle cars. Yenko Chevrolet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia If they did likewise to Blazers it might be quite a gem. Do you have a link to the vehicle?

 

i don't believe it is on the web but i can put up a pick i took when i looked at it.
looks like it may have been lowered, obviously not orig rims, no obvious rust, interior looks pretty good as well. metal trimmed dash, red carpet thru out, full sized chevy emblem spare, nothing torn up, have no clue about the miles yet. i havent yet called the guy but just wanted at least a little info before i came to him.

 

Obviously not a real Yenko blazer, since they did not make those, its a neat custom job though. Looks pretty good.
for 4500, I think that is a pretty good deal, depending on miles.

 

i have found a couple of other photos as well as a youtube vid with similar markings in comparison to the pic i posted earlier. still just want more info on it before i do anything. also dont know if it is worth anything but the dash at the passenger side says cheyenne.

 

All the ones that you are seeing are basically "yenko" tribute trucks.
Its a cool piece, but in the end, its just a 77 blazer made in tribute to Yenko (Don Yenko)

 

yeah now that i am looking at it a lil more, i remember the emblems all being yenkos and old too. the paint looks to fresh to be original. still catchs my eye as i go by it tho. dont know if im gonna do it now.

 

Maybe the guy put a ZL1 under the hood. Who cares if Yenko put his hands on it or not for this truck...if the thing kicks ***...it kicks *** (then again maybe it has a 1500cc Triumph engine in it )

"In 1972, Yenko stopped selling modified cars and began publishing a performance parts catalog from cosmetic modification to engine modification. One of his notable products was the ZL-1 engine, which he produced under permission from Chevrolet. In 1981, Yenko made his last modification, the Turbo Z Camaro. He added a turbocharger to 350 in³ (5.7 L) engine. He sold the Yenko Chevrolet dealership in 1982, which had been family owned since 1934."

 

Those look to be Yenko Camaro stripes.
