Inspirational 2WD Blazer Picture Thread

I have looked around on the site and haven't found a thread about this so I decided to start one. To me there's nothing like seeing pictures of nicely restored or nice in-progress Blazers or Jimmys to really get some ideas and inspirations. Since I never see many at all of the shows I get to go to, pictures that I have never seen really get my eyes popping!

Here are a few nice pictures that I have held onto....

Of course TVTBLAZER and a few other famouse pictures have already inspired me some anyways!

Re: Inspirational 2WD Blazer Picture Thread

Here's a couple I happened to take this past weeked at the Atlanta Super Chevy Show. That says $13,500 on the windshield. The paint on this thing was awesome. Didn't really care for the power mirrors on the thing though. The interior was bone stock.

Re: Inspirational 2WD Blazer Picture Thread

Square84 technically speaking the 2 wheel drive blazers are c series. Most people call the full size blazers k5 even though it may be a c or k5,10, 20 (i don't think there was a 30 on blazers may be wrong). I guess its like calling any brand of carbonated beverage a coke.

Re: Inspirational 2WD Blazer Picture Thread

WOW! Haven't seen my old truck in quite some time Ken!!



Sad to know it's sitting in a backyard rusting away now...the guy blew the motor within 3 weeks of buying it from me....and he won't sell it back. Says he's gonna "get to it" one day. Those wheels look damn near white now they are so far gone...
