Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Have to inquire, what happened to the (Union?) 76 antenna ball? Yay or nay?

Sounds like a thumbs down by Brad and a thumbs up by Pete :lol::lol::lol: We could start a 76 antenna ball club or something. I agree with Pete as well, fantastic work Eric. Take care guys, Tom |

I've got to rebut Eric's version of events....I do not believe I threw it in the trash...however, I do think it's a special occasion embellishment only. For instance: Cinco de Mayo, the season premier of How It's Made, 4/20, any mention of Burt Reynolds, Haley's Comet, when the McRib goes away, and Christmas.
...you know the usual. As far as the pic below, this afternoon I went to register for the September Chip Foose/YearOne event in Brasleton and saw their "Bandit" Trans Am on the YearOne website. It made me think of Burt, so I went home and placed the ball on the antenna....simple. |

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/f...play.php?f=199 But that carrier was used past the 72s and into the square Blazers for a few years. So they're still worth looking for in salvage yards. Of course there's eBay. A WTB has worked well for me too. EDITED: Sorry tim's68gmc...I see that you are a member, and I have changed my post to reflect that. I saw "Registered User" and missed the Premium Member tag. I'm used to seeing Junior or Senior Member in that line....or a personal tag line. You know well the benefits of membership here, my apologies. |
Re: 70 Blazer Frame Off
Thank you Brad and I hope you have a great summer of cruising.
You too Eric. Amazing work. I will be referring to your build to help in my 71 build starting here shortly.No doubt about it. Its kinda funny,i have some goofy antenna toppers I use sometimes because nobody likes them. How could you not like a rubber duck ? ;) |

Well...I thought I had this licked (or at least taken it to my best reasonable point)...but when I picked this up from the printer today I noticed the artifact, or ghost lettering, or extra junk, or whatever at the very bottom edge. Gotta get that fixed and try again. Unfortunately I fly out to a meeting tomorrow and will be gone for a week or so...So it'll be next week before I can put one on the fender well.

I think the numbers are: 22-384 front and 22-403 rear I think the ones that they have that are less expensive are flat, non-tapered leaves. I got the tapered ones. I just wanted it to be as factory correct as possible and the numbers I got were supposed to be factory spec. |
