Re: Project Yipes

Sorry I haven't been on so long... life has been really busy... just thought I would give a quick update. I picked up this yellow 72 for, well let's just say I practically stole it, and drove it home just the other day! Can anyone say DONOR MOTOR?!?!?! Finally I've got something to work with! Well hopefully I'll be able to get around to updating more often now that I'm able to work on getting the motor swap done and the Blazer up and running

Re: Project Yipes

I saw it on Craigslist and searched Harrisburg Oregon on here to see if it belonged to a member. My truck was just rear ended and I don't see me fixing it soon. I also went thru Gottawake's build. Its well worth what your asking for me with all the work into it......Tempting now...

Re: Project Yipes

Got the non-rusty drivers door on today! I'll have a fancy orange passenger door on it next weekend :-) But first new exhaust, Flowmaster Super 40's. Now that I have a little $ and a phone that'll actually allow me to post on here I'll keep you guys up to date.

Re: Project Yipes

Found a front clip that was in way better shape, and it was less than fixing the dents and rust in the current one!
