Re: How many 2wd Blazer do we have?
Two-tone red/black? All red is loud, for the longest time I didn't like it but have come to love it. It shows well, you can see all the detail better when it's finished out. Whatever you do, keep us posted, beautiful truck.

Re: How many 2wd Blazer do we have?
Don't think I've posting in this thread yet. He's my 78 Jimmy 2wd I swapped with another forum member. It's still a long way from finished but it's on hold currenty while I'm building my 80 C10

Re: How many 2wd Blazer do we have?
Here's a pic of the 1982 Jimmy 2wd we bought in North Carolina in the spring. Apparently a couple years ago it was two tone silver and blue. The 22's are growing on us. Third pic is the Jimmy beside my lifted Blazer.

Sorry for the sidebar, Keith do you know what years that grill was offered? That looks like a '77, I have that grill on my '79 but I bought it so long ago I don't recall how it was advertised.

That's a sweet blazer! The wheels are really sucked in though. Maybe too much in my opinion. Does anyone know how this was accomplished?

Could also be the porterbuilt front end or something comparable.. It will narrow the front I think a inch and a half on each side.

Next year mine is going to get a new motor and also install the new drop member kit I have for it.. So at least the front will be bagged..

You have to be able to clear the narrowest part of the front fender, when lay'd out.
In this case,... its the top of the fender,... NOT the part of the fender that flares out (at the moulding).
Plus to drive and turn low,... the tire turn inside the fender, NOT thru the wheel opening.

Re: How many 2wd Blazers do we have?
The blazer appears to be a '77.
I'm not sure about the grille.

ive seen alot of laid out k5's with the back seat still there. some people raise the floor in the rear and mount the back seat to the floor. you can see on the black blazer a few post back that it still has a back seat. by the way.....love your blz...if your thinking of baggin it. bag the front first as low as you are gonna go, then measure how much you need in the rear...it could be all you will need is a c-notch, which will leave the rear floor untouched. i dont think you would have to worry about driveshaft clearance either(no tubs needed)
