Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Randy, are you rebuilding the engine or is it good? So now every vehicle there will be white oh wait, your hd might be a different color, pewter right? Take that in at the same time and get that corrected

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Jud, your right my HD is pewter, my duramax I had before was white
Engine runs good, no smoke or anything, Just pulling motor so I can clean it up and paint it while the blazer is at the bodymans place. Thats when I decided to go white with blazer, I wanted a white one and finding one of those would be very hard so this way I'll have one.

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Who did you end up taking it to for the body work? I need a little repair work done on my 68. The shop I took my G8 to for hail damage was horrible IMO.

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

I'm taking it to guy in Shawnee Ks, he does it out of his house. I've seen 3 of the cars/trucks he has done, all turned out nice. I can give you his phone number, he just finished a 72 4x4, and is doing a 70 chevelle now

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Getting closer to the bodyshop, wow I'm fearing when I have to put it all back together, I'm so used to tearing apart these things I'm not sure if I can do it, I'm sure I'll have alot of questions, Bodyman thought he would be ready for it the 20th. Had to take it to my work in the heat to get it all tore apart, way to cold to part it out outside right now

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Not sure Ryan, the last chevelle project he finished took 2 1/2 months. It will take me alot longer than that to get it back together once he's done Summer time is a hard time for me to get much done except golf course stuff and kids

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Good to see you got a project randy and here I thought you only knew how to take parts off these old trucks... Do you happen to still have the oregon plates front and rear or do you have to turn them in? Been looking for a set for my blazer..

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Putting them back together after paint is definitely the worst part. Where'd this go, where'd that go, where'd I put that?

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

Rick, I will try to remember to take my camera, he is 1 hour from me, and wants me to try to get down there every couple weeks

David, slow down on parting, NO way,

Jeff, with your help it will turn out nice

Luke, I have them but I'm keeping them for wall art, sorry

Josh, THANKS

Ryan, you ought to see the blacksmith shop, its a mess I have the blazer parts lying everywhere. I was looking for 72 window and door regs I took out and couldn't find them anywhere. Then I remembered I sold a set, wow thats not a good deal

Trevor, I think I'm going to higher you, Jeff and Rob to come over and put it back together for me. Congrats on the new blazer, send me some pics!!!

Thanks to all of you, Randy

Re: Teeitup's build I guess!!!!!!

well went there Mon afternoon, forgot camera, oops. He found a little more rust that we didn't know was there. He has all the other rust fixed but not smoothed out yet. Here are some pics of some of the black stuff he painted for me and some of the new parts I did some trading for and the seats I got redone
