Re: my new old Blazer
 

Looks good man, sounds like you got yourself a great base for a nice project

Re: my new old Blazer

Re: my new old Blazer
 

i'll try to take some tomorrow...raining here today. The interior needs some work and eventually a little bodywork, but alot of upgrades have already been done. It was my son's who is getting ready to buy a new house and had to part with it.. so we're at least keeping it "in the family"

Re: my new old Blazer
 

Finally life has slowed a little and my son and I started work on her... He's the real body guy...I just play one on weekends. Rocker panels and driver lower quarter was all the rust repair needed... Stripping it down to bare metal. Hopefully will have in primer by this weekend

Misc pics to follow as soon as I can get them uploaded
