High miles may not be the worst thing though reallly. They could still be in good shape and have had parts replaced.

To be totally honest, I'd be a bit leery of a car with low miles and a low price. That could be because I bought my 00 ZR2 for 1600 and already had to replace the trans, it's developed a misfire and I think the wheel bearing may be going bad now. People can hide that stuff and just try to dump cars. All that, and mine only had 131K on it when I bought it.

very true, sometimes we get lucky, sometimes we get screwed.

Also, since this thread isnt really about the 98 350, can a mod please rename it...

"The quest for a new blazer"?

How far is Deland to you?

1997 Chevy Blazer 4dr 4wd

Might be able to talk him down to 1200 or so?

Also... have you looked up "Jimmy" on CL? I'm seeing a bunch that might be worth it down there.
