Stay tuned...might be time to start another build thread.

Bitter/Sweet...

Seeing one of the cleanest tubs I've ever come across sitting on the trailer ready to leave is tough but it allows me to get back to having one project and only one for awhile to concentrate on.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way

Will the new owner be a boardmember so we can keep track of what happens to it?

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way

Congrats friend. I just wish I could have got the funds to pull off the deal we had worked up but just didn't happen. I'll find what I need in due time. If you get down this way stop in and spend a day or two. Will have deluxe accommodations waiting for you.

Great offer, thank you...looking forward to it.


Deals come & deals go but offers like that can't be bought.


Find one in the middle and I'll pick it up and deliver it to ya on my way.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way

I,m trying to put a 72 rear bed back together. Would you please post pics from under the bed to show position of support rails and rear sill. The last owner cut the bottom of rear sill out for a frame extension to come through. Dose the sill bolt on where the trunion hinge is?

VT Blazer - You sir are in syndication. Actually I think it's cool that you're still getting hits.

Not busting your chops man. My note was to VT. I was simply referencing the fact that VT's last post was in 2009 while your question was in 2011. IIRC, VT was focusing more on family and less on building. That said, VT is a good person to ask for info. Rock on with your build brother!
