Description:
1997 Chevrolet Blazer 4x4 LS edition
4.3L V6 262
(projected at the time of sale I will have around 106,000 miles on it)
Tune Up using accel rotor cap, 9000 wires, and platinum +4 plug (within last 5,000 miles)
Brand new water pump and radiator (never have your radiator flushed at big ten, although my loss is your gain in about 2000$ worth of work)
Body Condition is pretty good, the paint is still glossy although there are small chips and some scratches but they'll be shown once I get pictures.
Tires have 60-70% tread left on them.

Modifications:

Exterior/performance-
Dual Exhaust 40 Series flowmaster setup with side swept on each side (I get mistaken for having a v8 all the time)
KYB Monomax shocks on front and back
Dueler Revo A/T's on all tires (rotated and balanced every 5000 miles)
Mobil 1 full synthetic 5w-30
Volant Cold Air Intake
Hypertech Power Programmer III
Wideview Prime Xenon lighting kit
Diamond Cut Headlights with clear corners

Interior-
(sound + video)
Polk Momo 6.5in coaxials in each door
Infinity 200watt self-powered subwoofer
6 cd eclipse cd-changer
Eclipse 7001 in-dash video unit, (along with brain all installed professionally with warranty on installation)
(I use my xbox in the car but I also have one in the house so if I sell the car my xbox will go with it)

-----------------------------------
Mainly i'm putting this up here right now to see what offers I could get for the future, possibly give time for some financial planning and such. I don't have a solid number i'm looking for at the time but i'd happily accept comments on it, pictures will be up tomorrow.

p.s.-I hate selling this cause i've had it since I started driving and it still drives like a dream (due to modifications the engine really picks up in higher rpm and I still get 17/24 mpg), I appreciate any interest or comments on it, thanks.

nobody even interested in commenting on it? I mean im not trying to shove this down your throats or anything I just want honest opinions on what you think its worth and would recomment selling it for. Or at least some sort of comment about it, even at the vw forum I regular they said more about it than here.

Sorry I didn't see it untill now. It's nice N clean that will help the resale value. Head unit is sweet too. Seems you cared enough to install all of that stuff.

I would check an Auto trader or something if you want to see what the Blazer is going in the current market. Then consider the mods you added to the asking price.
God luck my friend!

thaaaank you for replying, yea i've been checking autotrader, ebay, etc.. , ebay doesn't really have a 97 blazer in nearly as good condition as mine or with the extras, as for autotrader it almost seems like they're asking to much for what they're offering, I was trying to sell this one for 6 but its a bit negotiable. Considering the preventative maintenance I don't think thats a bad sell.

I would try for about 6500-7500. It does look really clean and very well taken care of.

Did you buy the headlights off eBay. I have the Silverstar sealed beams and Im thinking about converting to composite. I'm just worried about the quality with those. How are they? What bulbs did you use in them also?

You can tell if they gave a hoot about their vehicle just by reading the item description. If you go that route, (ebay auction,) do a nice write up.
NO misspellZ.

wow very clean truck extremely well maintained in my eyes havent heard it run but that would be a deal i would consider if only i was looking for a truck and wasnt a broke 16 yr old saving for rims haha but anyways u should get 7,000 for that thing if she drives nice even with the higher mileage. how do u get those gas mileage #s J/W is it cause of the exhaust at all

She drives great, surprising pickup speed on the high end rpms. As for how i've gotten the mpg i've estimated it through a stingy gas budget. Each month I would lay aside so much money for gasoline and then keep receipts i've got from using my card at the gas station then on each receipt i'd put the mileage (I only fill up when almost completely empty). That is how i've gotten the city/town mileage. I would drive annually back up to where I used to live in kentucky and during those trips i'd take the highway mileage in the same method. It could also be the way I drive but I think it will be different for a person with his foot down on the pedal all the time. While the exhaust does help quite a bit it is probably a mix of things between the tuning upgrade of sparks/wiring/cap, the CAI, power programming, and possibily even just using a high quality syn. oil could have all effected it positively. Thanks for the comments

www.kbb.com for a retail value. It looks really nice, I just was never much for green. I hope you had luck selling it.

any pics of under the hood, under the body, how about sound clips?
are you including the power programmer? Is the backseat still usable with the stereo equipment and all in its current location?
so far, I'd say from $5500-6800
