Greetings, All. I live in Oregon and recently (yesterday) purchased an '85 K5 Blazer with 98K miles. Nearly new GM 350 crate motor, 700R4, Silverado package. It's totally unmolested and in pretty good shape. Just a couple of minor issues to deal with, a very cheap and rusty set of headers, a powerlock doorlock that won't lock the driver's side door and a set of front seat covers that have seen better days. Got it from the second owner for a great price and after winter goes away here, I'll get with the work to fix the few items.

I've been looking for one for a couple of months. I looked at so many that had been hacked up or had serious rust issues (this one doesn't which surprised me) or were just trashed, inside and out.

Here's a pic (assuming I can do that with my first post)
