Big Yellow Dog

Old yeller maybe...My Blazer rebuild project..I got it from the orig owner back in 1988..in the mid 90s I did the full repaint on the body and all the new trim. I installed a split front seat and bifold rear seat..Never did get the reupholster done..I have put a lot of miles on her as a daily driver for many years. Back in 2012 I tried to rearrange the back of a Lexus..Ok I sucseeded!...I fixed the frame and trans case that broke..Then it sat in my hangar up to a few weeks back when I pulled the engine to overhaul it..The machine shop said the block is cracked so that was a big bummer as it was the orig engine..But I have a spare so moving on...And here is where is sits today..hasn't been off the rack for at least 8 years...Yikes

Re: Big Yellow Dog

Looking forward to seeing new life breathed into it. Going back stock or making changes that you wish you would have done the first time?

Re: Big Yellow Dog

I dont think I will change much at this point..But I will finish what I never got done..
I was looking for old photos last night and found a couple from the paint work..Looks like they were taken in 1991.
