Parts are so plentiful for trucks and gbody cars for those years.
They are also accommodate small blocks, big blocks and a variety of transmissions without any problems.
I'd drive one.

G body's are nice cruising cars. Comfy as hell.
I actually kind of miss those old soft pillowy seats. Drove one from WI to western MT and wasn't sore at all.
Most all new cars ride like a lumber wagon in comparison.

I'd love to have my dad's ram charger from when I was a kid. 8 track and all.

Lol…
I bought one and drove it. Underpowered gas hog.
It’s a collective vehicle now but I replaced that tailgate pull 4 times in the short time I owned it…

Softtopper is the brand I believe. Wish I knew how to post the pic without link. Ha ha
I’ll check it out. Im down on the beach and I have a garage so I’d like to just take the top off for the summer but have something like that for the sun.

So put a crate engine in it if you want speed. That’s like saying you don’t want a 69 bronco because it tops out at 55 mph.

That's what I did with mine, 355 crate motor, nice cam, headers, 3" exhaust,and so on and its fun with a th350. Fun truck to drive, everything is tight. I've dam near rebuilt the truck but it was worth doing b/c of no rust. Interior and undercarriage are both rhino lined too.
Posted on 6/23/21 at 11:04 pm to gplayerjr
I was curious about that, so you you took out the carpet and rhino lined? Did you install any drain plugs?
Posted on 6/24/21 at 7:33 am to DCtiger1
No drain plugs, just stripped it down and applied coating

That thang sho would look good with the Carolina lift.
I would love to have that truck. Wouldn't change a thing on it... would rather not have a red interior though.

I had the exact Blazer, just 12 years older. Black Cheyenne, same color interior. But in '75, the top came off to the windshield.

I’m not buying a vehicle to make money off of it. If I want an investment I’ll buy stock.
If I’m getting a square body Chevy I’m driving it.

Yes.
But is there a commercial repair shop with a mechanic that has the experience to fix it?
