Talking Can't wait for my B'day!

Going to Georgia to pic up my 72 Blazer project. Will be my first time with a 4x4, can't wait to get it going. Just thought I would share. It's in rough shape but it's cheap. Some pics of it http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s....php3?t=137801

Sounds like that will be a good birthday. Once you go 4X4, you will never be the same again

Getting closer to going to get it! Leaving Thursday night to get there Fri morning. Talked to my brother and he said they were driving it up until it was parked (replaced it with a newer truck). So I am holding out hope that it is mechanically sound (cuz it sure is rusty! )

It's home, I think I can salvage the glove box door, everything else is pretty much rusted away!
Some pics of it loaded on the trailer.
