It's Alive!!!!

While my carb is being rebuilt for my GMC (daily driver) I got out and started tinkering with the blazer. Run a hose from the fuel pump to a plastic gas can, made a few temp jumper wires to get fire to the coil and a screwdriver across the solenoid and she fired right off! Probably the first time in years it has run.

Add a little bit of duct tape and you've got another daily driver!

I'm gonna have to buy a case of it! Hopefully I can get it running well enough to get started on my truck.

She moved under her own power today! Drove it around the yard. Brakes leave a lot to be desired, and she smokes like a tar kiln but she runs. IT'S ALIVE (insert maniacal laughter)
