Then there is the square body Blazer;):chevy:

.

Off the market!
 

The orange one will not be sold. :sumo: < Wrong again! :lol: edited 10/14/09

Out in the yard untill I get the bronze one 'at least' into primer but assembly will continue over the winter.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

I swear...you have the coolest toys! ;)

Re: Off the market!
 

Right on.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

You'll need the "orange" one for Moab 2010! :metal:
AJ you're going too so tell your wife now :uhmk:
:mm::chevy::mm:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

That's the intent, for Greg & I to drive em out there.

AJ, you should hook up with us on the way! :metal:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

AJ - you in?

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

I could be....and I may be drivable by then.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Very cool, mark your calendar. :chevy:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Mentioned it to the wife...she didn't balk at it or say no. 1100 mile drive.

Dates??

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

A year from about ...NOW!

End of September I believe.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

I think bigblock72 over on CK5 lives in Utah...

EDIT: Perhaps a roadtrip thread needs to be started on one or both sites. Wouldn't wanna muck up your build thread ;)

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Perhaps...

Have four on the list already. :two:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Hey Kurt, how much for the orange Blazer???? Just teasin'. I'm glad you decided to keep it. I really wanna see it completed. Its a tough rig.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Hey...don't you have some sanding to be doin'? :chop:




:lol: J/K - Nice progress on yours, I wish I were at the stage already.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Waiting for sheet metal for the other blazer body that's taking up space in the shop, so I figured I could at least paint something.

Core support for both blazers got the gun last night with POR and today with shiny gloss black.

It's sitting 1/2 in and 1/2 out of the sun, so this is the best pic I was able to get.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

:phat:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

You know how it goes, you get done 'what' you can 'when' you can...right?


Tough getting a decent picture of something SO black. :chevy:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Do you have a dedicated gun for the POR?

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

No, I just change the settings on the gun a bit and deal with it being thicker.


**I think the next step with this one should be getting the sound deadener sprayed into the interior.

Then if I can get a good 'productive' weekend, spray color on the firewall & the interior at the same time.

Not looking forward to plumbing the frame, just don't care for doing that part. :barf:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Small change in plans...

Potentially have this unmolested, rust free 69 tub sold, the sale is pending but I'm confident it'll go through.

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

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

your blazer rocks dude, i wish my was that clean:waah:

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

what black paint do you use? I am thinking powdercoat on mine but want the core support and inner fenders to match...

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

First coat was a flat finish POR, top coat is SEM gloss black.

Re: Building a Blazer - vtblazer's Way
 

Looking good. All you got left is finishing......right?
