For consignment, the early years for the smaller, more nimble, but just as tough 87,960 mile Blazer from the bowtie company. This 1996 is a 1 owner truck, has always been garaged, has a new 10/23 PA inspection sticker, and is loaded with options, graced with nice paint, and interior cloth all very clean. and all very original. “Climb Every Mountain!”…
Exterior
This small 4x4 sports an exterior with factory Light Blue Metallic bathing straight steel panels minding their gaps. A small fender dent from an impatient driver 20 plus years ago is seen but is mostly unremarkable. Upfront a large shiny grille sports a single square headlight and side signal in orange. A black bug guard is above and below a black neoprene crash bumper. Some black side trimmings and black tinted window surrounds as well as a black roof rack, add a nice contrast to this small 4x4 which has a big presence in the photos. In back a nice lift gate with spare tire, more curved tinted glass for the rear hatch and another black neoprene bumper framing the bottom. 15-inch stock wheels are on and all wrapped up in 235/75R15's on all 4 corners. Get your “groover” on!
Interior
Behind that tinted glass are charcoal gray dimpled pattern broadcloth door panels which make much ado with the molded vinyl panels and their power toggles and buttons for the glass, locks and mirror adjustments. The original GM dash continues with more use of the gray molded vinyl and a large black panel in front of the driver houses all the gauges. Broadcloth dimpled gray power adjustable buckets for the driver and a manual seat for the passenger are in front of this dash and a large center console/storage/cupholder is between the seats. As it rises to the dash an AM/FM/Cassette player is in as well as the climate controls. Gray carpeting is flooding the floors including the clean cargo area behind the rear 2 bucket seat/bench broadcloth covered seats. Up top is another console sporting lighting and various drop down storage cubbies. The back of the truck has lots-o-cargo space nicely carpeted, and the black seats can be folded down for even more.
Drivetrain
A factory 4.3 Liter V6 which is extremely clean and nicely detailed sits under the large hood. This has EFI, and a 3 speed automatic 4L60E transmission. A 10 bolt 3.42 is the axle designation in back with a matching ratio axle in the front.
Undercarriage
A rust free black painted frame runs around the entire perimeter of this truck. The rockers are solid steel and the factory spray paint can still be seen on the floor pans. Power disc brakes are in front, and power drums on the back. A single pipe exhaust is showing and no drips or wet areas whatsoever on this lower end.
Drive-Ability
This truck and its 4.3 Liters fired right up and driving is a pleasure. All comfy on the ergonomic front for the interior, smooth acceleration and bias free panic stopping. Our consignor notes that all new are the alternator, battery, water pump, oil cooler lines, radiator hoses and exhaust. The upper rear gate would not stay open so we used a wood plank.
A nicely preserved exterior paint and interior dimpled comfy and warm gray broadcloth along with plenty of options present overall nicely. It runs great and can carry you and a few of your friends and all of their gear easily. Get to climbin'!
