...Is there a decent market for the Chalet, as it seems pretty complete and decent condition. And is there a market for it on the east coast?... Obviously I want the Blazer, but the Chalet not so much.....
The market as it is now is a buyer's market, as the lousy economy forces many to sell a classic rare vehicle that is otherwise sitting around not paying the rent.
My Google map shows around 50 out therre, but I wish I could keep better track of which were sold. Much better market back east for western Blazers since most east of the Mississippi have rusted in half by now. Over in Georgia, for example, serial #1304 was recently in its 6th listing with no takers, but you can see
from its last listing how its rust is a bit of a problem.
For future collector value, I'd recommend not selling off the camper, as the 'car-nut collector value' of Chalets is the complete original unit in one piece. Since this one has been modded a bit, perhaps its collector value is eroded, but it could be put back to original better than some others out there. Chalet #0204, for example, was sold for 10 grand
back in 2005 as a really nice original, but I'd say
its re-appearance with mods and a now missing set if interior cabinets on the driver's side lessens its value, not increases it.
