Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project

Went over to Maidstone for dinner with Kevin and his wife who had picked up the brand new grille for the Blazer up in Derbyshire 175 miles from here for me, that kept the £40.00 purchase price realistic, rather than paying shipping or postage on top.
I still need to make up some fitting brackets for it but hopefully not too much of a hassle.

Friends Dave and Helen were there too.

Dave brought me these sew on badges that he bought in 1978 at the Kennedy Space Centre, still in their bags, unopened.

I just loved the pricing on them.

Wonder what a gallon of gas cost back then.




And of course, freshly out of its packaging, the new grille.

Hope to fit that and the new to me, steering wheel today once I figure and make the fitting brackets.




Looks like a good way to start the first day of the new year and last day of my break, much of which was enjoyed playing with this Not a Project truck.


Thanks for checking in.
