Re: Project Eat Soot
Well, Gents I'm back. After selling the "Blue Turd" towards the end of last summer. I've had the itch to build Blazer #4....The old K5 Cummins now lives in California under the sun.
Last week a 1969 K5 landed in my lap and I just had to have it! Its a factory CST Blazer as well so for me it makes it sweeter. Previous owner pretty much stripped it all down so next week it will get the tub sandblasted along with the frame, I already grabbed some 3/4 ton axle for it so hope to have it in epoxy and a rolling chassis soon as my 6" lift shows up. The tub is excellent shape as it has been stored inside for years. Very little rust repair that I can see, Hopefully after sandblasting I will have more the a windshield frame...Haha
Here is the plan so far...3/4 ton axles, 6" lift, 37" BFG (white out of course) 18" wheels, 6.0 LS swap with 4L80e......the Cummins was sweet but I plan to have a little more getty up on this one.
One to pics as she sits now. If i remember how.
