I've been wanting to build one of those blazers forever, but i can never find a clean 2 door for a reasonable price. I just want to swap a nice H/C LS1 into one, maybe with an M6, and make it a driver. I want a black one and I would put chrome ZR1 rims on it, and have it lowered about like yours. I have found one locally, on a used car lot. It was a '99 IIRC, over 100K on it, already lowered, kinda beat to ****, and they wanted like $11K for it. I 'bout **** myself.....
