Best truck there is IMHO, have my late father's sitting in my shop, he bought it new in 71. Came with the 402 big block, 400 turbo and wood bed. I replaced the bed my senior year in HS over 30 years ago.
My sons drive these older trucks as well one has a 72 Blazer 4x4 all factory stock, 350 with 350 turbo tranny and the youngest one just bought his first truck a 71 shortbed, 355 chevy with 400 turbo under it. They are great trucks, solid, power steering with that big wheel is second to none and drive and ride like a dream.

A friend of mine had a 68 or 69 that looked just like spankrz. He did the body which came out very good and was planning on building a mild SBC 406. He never did finish it. He ended selling and getting a 5th Gen. (78-87) El Camino. I never could figure that one out. To each their own.
