If it had the 350 it would be. 305 is weak at best.

if money was not an issue, with gas nearly $4.00 a gallon. and a 305 in that beast? It has got to be on its last piston. heck I would by it. But I am a freak!! I like to throw money into a FIRE PIT for giggles!! LOL!!!

Oh if the picture is the truck He is lying to you, that is an 86 or so, nice gag LOL

uhhg, the 350 doesnt have enough power in the K1500, I couldn't imagine a 305 trying to push the truck

Lol. If you want one I guess you should do what you want to do the good thing is it ain't real expensive to put a new motor in there

Whats wrong with the blazer? if the guy came to you to trade id be wary. it seems like you would kinda be getting the losing end but i cant say without reall seeing both rigs

I think it is a late 70s with a newer front clip.
