Re: My first blazer!!
 

got my "new" seats!! working on installing them tonight and will finish up tomorrow. Then i have to figure out the wiring for them. Their from a trailblazer with power options. Not sure what all they have as the pigtail for the drivers side has 17 wires..... wasn't expecting that for sure..

Re: My first blazer!!
 

had a busy weekend, got the ls all cleaned up and painted. Then started the teardown on the blazer..

Re: My first blazer!!
 

will finish cleaning of the firewall tonight and start prepping it for paint. Hoping to have the engine and transmission in this weekend. Then ill drop the tank and change fuel pump etc. Headers should be here next week. I was happy to find zero rust in the firewall!!!!!!!

Re: My first blazer!!
 

got the firewall sanded and prepped. Sprayed a little self etch on it tonight. Ill paint it tomorrow. Also got the chassis all cleaned up and painted. Haven't painted the control arms yet as Im about to change ball joints, inner and outer tie rods and wheel bearings. That way i know their all new and good to go....On a side note i sold the tbi 350 already so thats good too, less clutter in the garage.:devil::devil:

Re: My first blazer!!
 

:devil::devil: and we've got color!!!!!!:devil::devil:

Re: My first blazer!!
 

garage lighting is killing the color in the photos. Im thinking the chevy orange on the engine has to go. It'll clash big time I'm afraid.....

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Looks great, really like the color

Re: My first blazer!!
 

headers are here:metal::metal:

also got the engine sat in. Now onto plumbing and wiring

Re: My first blazer!!
 

repainted the valve covers and engine cover, The colors just weren't working together. Using alot of spray paint on this one as Its planned to be my daily driver

Re: My first blazer!!
 

Looks good! Is that spray paint on the firewall?

Re: My first blazer!!
 

no, thats base coat/clear. The spray paint will stay on the chassis and engine. The panels ill paint with automotive materials.

Re: My first blazer!!
 

just some progress pictures, Spent most of the day saturday cleaning the grease and gunk off the garage floor and rebuilding the front suspension. Ill post some more pics soon. Actually waiting on new motor mount plates to slide the engine back 1-1/2". Then ill start on the exhaust. Still gotta drop the tank and change the pump as well.

Re: My first blazer!!
