Since I made comment on the "Hmmmmmm Another Project" post I may as well reveal my latest addition. This came about with a lot of chit chatting on awesome vehicles sitting and as I traveled eastern NC the other week for work I found TONS of awesome 70-90's vehicles sitting with little rust just nicely patinaed. So as I was looking for an S10 Blazer for my friend we rambled into conversation of perfect finds. I expressed my want of a SC long bed bullnose I6 4 speed, and would love to find an old solid green or solid brown one if l could choose. The conversation changed quickly when he said hmm I pass a brown bull nose everyday. I think its 4wd and pretty straight. Well we were kinda wrong on how straight it was but anyway he left my # as the property looked abandoned. Sure enough 2-3 days later a guy called said it was a family member who had passed away and they already sold the truck the buyer just hasn't picked it up. My heart sank (wallet sighed..... ) I asked if he would forward my # which he said he would ( I was still very doubtful) An hour later phone rang guy said he was the new owner explained there was no title and truck hasn't run in several years but he would sell it. We agreed on a price I got him in contact with my friend in the area as I am about 5 hours away from where it sat and mailed a check. Sure enough Saturday afternoon it was loaded on a rollback and dropped at my friends. Awaiting a chance to go get it.

Before anyone asks the bumpside is my friends, used to be mine, the suburban's are all his the square body is a 6.2 the 98 green one is a 6.5, the brick nose is a 7.3 manual, tan one is a 454. Don't think I missed any!
I know the 84 Bullnose is rusted but I was happy with the deal and plan to drive it as long as possible and when it gets unsafe I'll find a donor body.
